Direct Digital Manufacturing

O estudo se desenvolveu por meio da fabricação e posterior ensaio de corpos de prova confeccionados por meio de Direct Digital Manufacturing (DDM), usinagem de placas extrudadas e injeção de polímeros. Um comparativo das propriedades mecânicas obtidas pelos ensaios de tração foi realizada. A avaliação das aplicações de peças DDM, especialmente por se tratar de uma tecnologia relativamente jovem e que ainda não tem todo seu potencial explorado, foi o que motivou a realização desse trabalho. Cada um dos três processos avaliados apresentou particularidades. Os ensaios de peças usinadas e injetadas apresentaram resultados bem característicos, sendo o material usinado mais resistivo à forças trativas do que o material injetado. As peças fabricadas por DDM se mostraram tão eficientes quanto à injeção no ensaio de tração.

Third Industrial Revolution

The chapter engages with the idea that nonhuman creativity is fostering a new architecture based on continuous variation both in its theoretical and in its technical and material dimension. The chapter depicts the trajectory of ONL, the author’s practice, and how with this mission it has moved to the third industrial revolution that has altogether revolutionised architecture as a whole. In this chapter Kas Oosterhuis redefines the fundamentals in three phases; phase A: mass production, phase B: mass customisation - in which phase ONL’s built projects are positioned - and moving into the upbeat of phase C: distributed robotic design, production, assembly and operation, in which phase the achievements of Hyperbody’s interactive architecture are positioned. He concludes by challenging the traditional role of the architect that has shifted, nowadays, to that of an expert.

Printing Speed

The primary concern of the Industry 4.0 is the direct digital manufacturing of customized products on demand at high production speed, high accuracy with functional material property. Although the unique capabilities of existing additive manufacturing technologies make it suitable for direct digital manufacturing, there are numerous limitations which include low printing speed, less accuracy and repeatability, and a limited selection of materials for a particular application. Therefore, a high-speed additive manufacturing approach is proposed in this paper, that is capable of achieving high speed of production, high accuracy, and surface finish, and functional material property. For better understanding, authors describe those additive manufacturing technologies that are capable of achieving the aforementioned characteristics. For validation, samples of various dimensions were 3D printed on a selective laser sintering and a high-speed multijet fusion 3D printer. The results were compared in the context of printing speed, surface roughness (Ra), and hardness of printed parts. Results revealed that the multijet fusion process is significantly faster than its counterpart while sacrificing Ra to some extent but the hardness of printed parts is not changed significantly. The selective laser sintering-printed samples had a 15% lower Ra compared with multijet fusion samples. The results also revealed that the multijet fusion process might be able to print composite/multi-materials; however, more research needs to be done.

This paper describes how direct digital manufacturing mechanical properties can be analytically estimated for structural use and the associated analytical and test methods used in the design and fabrication of airframes manufactured using additive manufacturing. Complex shape structures, which are now possible using additive manufacturing, and their associated mechanical properties can be predicted in order to allow operationally safe and highly predictive structures to be fabricated. Direct digital manufacturing allows for much greater flexibility and control over the design of airframes, leading to more structurally efficient and capable airframes. These advantages are revealed by application of direct digital manufacturing methods on a series of fixed wing subsonic transport concept wind tunnel scale models that are carried out as a part of the NASA N+3 program, which is paving the way for next generation aircraft that are highly fuel efficient, low-noise, and low-emission. Verification of these methods through test shows excellent correlation that provides reliability in complex sparse filled additive manufacturing design. The outcome of this is a knowledge base, which can then be applied to a system in operation. The combined potential of a flexible manufacturing system and proven predictive analysis tools shorten development time and expand the opportunities for mass customization. These combined benefits enable industry to fabricate affordable highly optimized custom products while concurrently reducing the cycle times required to field new products.
