This paper addresses the need to conduct theoretical work concerning an economical way of Solid Freeform Fabrication rendering by using selective Area Laser Deposition (SALD). The part in SALD rendering process is formed ...

Because Solid Freeform Fabrication (SFF) has an extremely wide range of potential applications, crossing traditional engineering and science boundaries, it is a technology that lends itself to multi-disciplinary activities ...

This paper presents recent progress in extending the CAM-LEM process to 5-axis laser cutting for fabrication of laminated engineering components directly from sheet materials. The present extensions enable construction ...

The Fused Deposition of Ceramics (FDC) is based on the commercially available Fused Deposition Modeling (IDMTM) technique developed by Stratasys Inc. The FDC process is being currently developed to make complex ceramic ...

Materially graded objects are objects composed of different constituent materials and could exhibit continuously varying composition and/or microstructure [1][2]. Such continuous changes results in gradation in their ...

Solid Freeform Fabrication (SFF) technologies refer to the fabrication of physical parts directly from computer based solid models described by STL (Stereo Lithography) or VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) files ...

Porous ceramic structures have long been a subject of investigation as bone sl..bstitute. Most of these porous structures are typically made by techniques that result .randomly arranged pores with a wide variety of pore ...

Injection mould cavities and EDM electrodes were produced from High Speed Selective Jet Electrodeposition (HSSJE). The performance ofthe electrodes in the EDM process and the surface finish ofthe tools produced were ...
