The use of slurry removes some of the stringent powder requirements by allowing deposition of smaller particles with a variety of particle morphologies.

Ceramic cores are conventionally manufactured through injection molding. However, injection molding of low-volume production runs can be challenging because of the long lead times and high costs associated with mold tooling. 3D printing can mitigate up-front tooling costs, but there are other trade-offs, e.g., higher material costs of 3D printing feedstocks. Here, we develop a techno-economic model that accounts for costs (materials, tooling, equipment), core size, experience curve effects, and other important variables to determine threshold production volumes for which 3D printing is less expensive than conventional processing techniques. Using market data from 2019, our analysis shows that 3D printing a single dedicated core design with typical dimensions for aeroengine applications is less expensive than injection molding below ∼1,800 units. By simultaneously printing multiple core designs, this threshold increases to 120,000 units, or approximately 2 % of the 2019 aeroengine market demand. This threshold value decreases with increasing core size, indicating 3D printing is less favorable for large castings used in industrial gas turbines. These results are compared against the demand for ceramic cores in engine development, engine sustainment, and new engine manufacturing.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72068,"journal":{"name":"Additive manufacturing letters","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100223"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772369024000318/pdfft?md5=513763866f7c987f0368cd3cd50d5036&pid=1-s2.0-S2772369024000318-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141595178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, this approach can be both less effective and time-consuming in big-area additive manufacturing. Therefore, the current focus is on investigating methods for printing with fewer layers without compromising surface quality. In this study, single-strand walls were printed using a two-component thermoset material, where different nozzle designs and printing strategies are explored to achieve the flattest possible surface. The success of each approach was evaluated by measuring the percentage of material that required removal to achieve a perfect vertical flat wall. The results suggested that incorporating vertical wings to contain the material in the desired shape was beneficial. Furthermore, the study introduced the idea of adjustable layer heights to mitigate layer deformation. This deformation is most noticeable in the initial layers but largely affects all subsequent printed layers. Finally, making the wings have an angle with regard to the printing direction or trapezoidal wings, served as a pressure funnel that produced the greatest improvement in surface quality. These changes allowed for a reduction of the amount of material which would need to be removed to achieve a flat wall without grooves from 14.3% for a standard print from a round nozzle, to 2.5% for an optimized strand. The research shows a promising path to producing entirely flat vertical structures, even when printing with still-deformable, thermoset materials in the context of big-area additive manufacturing.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72068,"journal":{"name":"Additive manufacturing letters","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100226"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772369024000343/pdfft?md5=f3dc57a6059c196a163df977d90f95a8&pid=1-s2.0-S2772369024000343-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141850721","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
