Optimization of fused deposition modeling parameters for improved PLA and ABS 3D printed structures

Chamil Abeykoon, Pimpisut Sri-Amphorn, Anura Fernando · 30 Mar 2020

3D printing is a popular technique for fabricating three-dimensional solid objects from a digital design. In order to produce high quality 3D printed parts, the appropriate selection of printing parameters is crucial. This research is focused on studying the properties of 3D printed specimens (i.e., mechanical, thermal and morphological) with varying processing conditions such as…

Comparative study of the application of steels and aluminium in lightweight production of automotive parts

Miklós Tisza, Imre Czinege · 17 Sep 2018

The automotive industry has a decisive role in the economy of developed countries. Sheet metal forming – as one of the main processes in car manufacturing – has similarly important role. Concerning the recent trends in car production, the application of lightweight constructions principles is the main priority to meet customers' demands and the increased…

A review on forming techniques for manufacturing lightweight complex—shaped aluminium panel components

Kailun Zheng, Denis J. Politis, Liliang Wang et al. · 3 Apr 2018

Aluminium alloys are being increasingly utilised in the automotive and aerospace industries to reduce the weight of vehicles. Extensive research has been conducted to overcome the poor ductility of aluminium alloys at room temperature and improve formability of the materials, to enable complex-shaped panel components to be manufactured. To this end, this paper contains a…

Challenges in additive manufacturing of high-strength aluminium alloys and current developments in hybrid additive manufacturing

Sadettin Cem Altıparmak, Victoria A. Yardley, Zhusheng Shi et al. · 28 Dec 2020

Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes, also known as 3D printing, enable geometrically complex parts to be produced layer by layer on the basis of three-dimensional (3D) data generated either by scanning physical objects or using design software. Compared to conventional manufacturing processes, AM offers the elimination of production steps, allowing rapid and relatively easy prototyping of…

Cryogenic deformation mechanism of CrMnFeCoNi high-entropy alloy fabricated by laser additive manufacturing process

Zengcheng Qiu, Chengwu Yao, Kai Feng et al. · 1 Mar 2018

Well-formed equimolar CrMnFeCoNi high-entropy alloy (HEA) bulk samples with good tensile properties are fabricated by laser additive manufacturing (LAM) processing. To elucidate the deformation mechanism, tensile tests are performed on at 77 K and 293 K and interrupted at different strains. Electron backscatter diffraction and X-ray diffraction indicate that the large initial dislocation density introduced…
