Investigation Into the Manufacture of 3D Functional Parts using VLM-ST and Its Applied Technology
발포폴리스티렌 폼을 이용한 단속형 가변적층 쾌속조형공정과 응용기술을 이용한 3차원 기능성 제품 제작에 관한 연구
Abstract
The integration of rapid prototyping and tooling has the potential for the rapid net shape manufacturing of three-dimensional parts with geometrical complexity. In this study, a new rapid prototyping process, transfer type of Variable Lamination Manufacturing (VLM-ST), was proposed to manufacture net shape of 3-D prototypes. In order to examine the efficiency and applicability of the proposed process, various 3-D parts, such as a world-cup logo, and extruded cross and a knob shape, were fabricated on the apparatus. In addition, the new rapid tooling process, which is a triple reverse process, was proposed to manufacture of 3-D functional part using VLM-ST prototypes and the plastic part of the knob shape was produced by the new rapid tooling process.
