In selective laser sintering powder forming, the performance and dimensional accuracy of the formed part are affected by the process parameters. Different materials have different process parameters, and there is still no reference standard for PA materials. To solve this problem, in response to this problem, PA2200 material was selected, and the influence of scanning interval and scanning speed on the dimensional accuracy of the formed part was analyzed. Through theoretical analysis and experiments, the optimal process parameters were obtained. The best combination of parameters is a scanning speed of 4000mm/s, a scanning interval of 0.5mm, and the size of the molded part has a X-axis deviation -0.35%, a Y-axis deviation -0.4%, and a Z-axis deviation -0.25%.

Kerf Taper

This article reports an investigation of the influence of process parameters on the obtainable dimensional accuracy when drilling glass using abrasive jet machining. In particular, holes were drilled out of glass sheets, and the effects of standoff distance, nozzle diameter, particle grain size and applied pressure on the kerf taper were examined. An artificial neural network technique was used to establish a precise model of kerf taper as a function of the process parameters. The proposed model was then optimised, and the conditions to minimise the kerf taper were identified using a genetic algorithm. The results revealed that standoff distance has a major effect on kerf taper, and it proved possible to substantially reduce the kerf taper by applying an axial feed to the nozzle so that the standoff distance is kept constant during the machining process.

Abstract Lab on Chips (LOCs) are devices, mostly based on microfluidics, that allow to perform one or several chemical, biochemical or biological analysis in a miniaturized format on a single chip. The Additive Manufacturing processes, and in particular the Digital Light Processing stereolithography (DLP-SLA), could quickly produce a complete LOC with high resolution 3D features in a single step, i.e. without the need for assembly processes, and using low cost and user-friendly desktop machines. However, the potential of DLP-SLA to produce non-planar channels or channels with complex sections has not been fully investigated yet. This study proposes a benchmark artifact (including also some channels with their axis lying in a plane parallel to the machine building platform) aiming at assessing the capability and performance of DLP-SLA for manufacturing microfeatures for microfluidic devices. A proper experimental campaign was performed to evaluate the effect of the main process parameters (namely, layer thickness and exposure time) on the process performance. The results pointed out that both the process parameters influence the quality and dimensional accuracy of the analyzed features.

Inconel 718 (IN718) is a nickel-based superalloy which is widely used in aerospace, oil, and gas industries due to its outstanding mechanical properties at high temperatures, corrosion, fatigue resistance, and excellent weldability. Selective laser melting (SLM), one of the most used powder-bed based methods, is being extensively used to fabricate functional IN718 components with high accuracy. The accuracy and the properties of the SLM fabricated IN718 parts highly depend on the process parameters employed during fabrication. Thus, depending on the desired properties, the process parameters for a given material need to be optimized for improving the overall reliability of the SLM devices. In this study, design of experiment (DOE) was used to evaluate the dimensional accuracy, composition, and hardness corresponding to the interaction between the SLM process parameters such as laser power (P), scan speed (v), and hatch spacing (h). Contour plots were generated by co-relating the determined values for each characteristic and the process parameters to improve the as-built characteristics of the fabricated IN718 parts and reduce the post-processing time. The outcome of this study shows a range of energy density values for the IN718 superalloy needed to attain optimal values for each of the analyzed characteristics. Finally, an optimal processing region for SLM IN718 fabrication was identified which is in accordance with the values for each characteristic mentioned in literature.

The significance matrix for the parameters of “material-billet-equipment-process-tool-personnel-environment” system was compiled using the systems approach to the assurance of forging dimensional accuracy, and the expert analysis revealed the most significant process parameters that affect the accuracy. The application of simulation modeling helped to establish the dependence of forging force on the dimensions of an incoming billet. The paper suggests a solution to increase the accuracy of the sized forgings.

This article presents an experimental investigation into the influence of process parameters viz. feed per tooth, axial depth of cut on milling force, surface finish, wall deflection and micro-hardness during thin-wall machining of an aerospace grade aluminum alloy 2024-T351. Results revealed that the process parameters significantly influence the surface finish and dimensional accuracy of machined thin-walls. High feed rate promoted the formation of built-up-edge (BUE). Combination of high feed and axial depth of cut aided in catastrophic failure of tools. Surface damages such as material plucking, material shearing, material adhesion and deformed feed mark layer formation were observed. Axial depth of cut negatively influenced the wall deflection leading to loss of dimensional accuracy. Interestingly, the micro-hardness at the machined surface was found to be lower than that of the bulk material hardness. These results will be useful in selection of suitable process parameters for quality and precise machining of thin-wall parts.
