Abstract
Recently, life cycle and lead-time of products have been shortened with the demand of customers. Therefore, it is important to reduce time and cost at the stage of manufacturing trial molds. In order to realize a three-dimensional shape on CAD, the machining process has been widely used because it offers practical advantages such as precision and versatility. However, the traditional machining process needs a large amount of time in cutting a product and the remained material causes trouble such as inconvenience for clarity. In this work, a new rapid manufacturing process using the hot tool, Rapid Heat Ablation process, has been developed to overcome such limitations. While the hot tool moves the predetermined path, the heat of the tool decomposes the remained material. The radius of heat affect ed zone related to process parameters was investigated through experiments to improve the quality of ablated parts. In order to examine the applicability of the proposed process, three-dimensional shapes such as hemisphere and standard test part, wereablatedutilizingtheapparatus.
