Direct Ink Writing on a Rotating Mandrel—Additive Lathe Micro-Manufacturing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Among the promising techniques within additive manufacturing (AM), direct ink writing (DIW) stands out for its ability to work with a wide range of materials, including polymers, ceramics, glass, metals, and cement. However, ...
Smooth Surface Fabrication Based on Controlled Meniscus and Cure Depth in Microstereolithography
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the layerbased additive manufacturing (AM) processes, a threedimensional (3D) model is converted into a set of twodimensional (2D) layers. Due to such conversion, one of the major problems in the layerbased AM processes ...
Acoustic Field-Assisted Two-Photon Polymerization Process
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study successfully integrates acoustic patterning with the Two-Photon Polymerization (TPP) process for printing nanoparticle–polymer composite microstructures with spatially varied nanoparticle compositions. Currently, ...
Hierarchical Nano/Micro-Structured Surfaces With High Surface Area/Volume Ratios
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Recently, many studies have investigated additive manufacturing (AM) of hierarchical surfaces with high surface area/volume (SA/V) ratios, and their performance has been characterized for applications in next-generation ...
Development of a Low Cost Parallel Kinematic Machine for Multidirectional Additive Manufacturing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Most additive manufacturing (AM) processes are layerbased with three linear motions in the X, Y, and Z axes. However, there are drawbacks associated with such limited motions, e.g., nonconformal material properties, ...
Fast Mask Image Projection-Based Micro-Stereolithography Process for Complex Geometry
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In micro-stereolithograhy (μSL), high-speed fabrication is a critical challenge due to the long delay time for refreshing resin and retaining printed microfeatures. Thus, the mask-image-projection-based micro-stereolithograhy ...
Correlation Between Microscale Magnetic Particle Distribution and Magnetic-Field-Responsive Performance of Three-Dimensional Printed Composites
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: To date, several additive manufacturing (AM) technologies have been developed for fabricating smart particle–polymer composites. Those techniques can control particle distributions to achieve gradient or heterogeneous ...
Magnetic-Field-Assisted Projection Stereolithography for Three-Dimensional Printing of Smart Structures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, an additive manufacturing (AM) process, magnetic field-assisted projection stereolithography (M-PSL), is developed for 3D printing of three-dimensional (3D) smart polymer composites. The 3D-printed magnetic ...
Multitool and Multi Axis Computer Numerically Controlled Accumulation for Fabricating Conformal Features on Curved Surfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In engineering systems, features such as textures or patterns on curved surfaces are common. In addition, such features, in many cases, are required to have shapes that are conformal to the underlying surfaces. To address ...
