기존 대부분의 3D 콘크리트 프린팅 연구는 모르타르를 재료로 활용하고 있다. 다만, 굵은 골재를 포함한 콘크리트에 비해 모르타르를 사용할 경우에는 높은 바인더 함량과 잔골재량으로 인하여 경제성이 저하될 수 밖에 없다. 따라서, 3D 프린팅 기술의 건설산업 적용 확대를 위해서는 굵은 골재를 사용한 콘크리트 3D 프린팅에 대한 연구가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 굵은 골재가 포함된 3D 프린팅 용 콘크리트의 배합설계 프로세스를 제안하고자 하였다. 다양한 문헌연구 및 배합실험을 참고하여 3D 프린팅에 적합한 배합을 도출하였으며, 출력실험을 통하여 압출성을 검증하였다. 콘크리트 배합의 증점제(Viscosity modifying agent, VMA) 함량을 출력실험의 변수로 설정하였으며, 출력된 필라멘트의 치수 적합성, 골재분포도, 표면 품질을 평가하여 압출성능을 검증하였다. 실험결과, VMA의 함량이 높은 배합이 더 우수한 치수 적합성과 표면 품질을 보였으며, VMA 함량이 다름에도 불구하고 모든 배합에서 골재분포가 균등하게 나타났다. 실험결과를 바탕으로 굵은 골재가 포함된 콘크리트의 압출성을 향상 시킬 수 있는 배합설계 프로세스를 도출하였다.

Additive manufacturing (AM), so called 3D Printing is a new manufacturing process and is getting attraction from many industries. There are several methods of 3D printing. Among them fused deposition modeling (FDM) type is most widely used by reason of cheap maintenance, easy operation and variety of polymeric materials. Articles manufactured by 3D printing have weak deposition strength compared with conventionally manufactured products. Deposition strength of FDM type 3D printed article is highly dependent of deposition temperature. Subsequently the nozzle temperature in the FDM type 3D printing is very important and it is controlled by heat source in the 3D printer. Nozzle is connected with heat block and barrel, and heat block contains heat source. Nozzle becomes hot through heat conduction from heat source. Nozzle temperature has been predicted for various thermal boundary conditions by computer simulation and compared with experimental measurement. Nozzle temperature highly depends upon thermal conductivities of heat block and nozzle. Simulation results are good agreement with experiment.

This paper concerns the possibility of 3D printing reverse idle gears for tractor transmission. For the purposes of this experiment, idle gears were manufactured using a SLA 3D printer, FDM 3D printer, and through machining. The accuracy of the idle gears produced in these three different ways were evaluated by the properties of their outer diameter, inner diameter, roundness, concentricity, parallelism, span, backlash, and gear grade. The tooth characteristics of the idle gears were evaluated by their profile, lead, and the pitch of the gears. The results of this experiment determined that the surface conditions created by the finishing process had a significant impact on the dimensional accuracy of the gears and the characteristics of their teeth.

In large-scale hospitals, the department of biomedical engineering should always provide quick repair service for damaged medical devices to guarantee continuous patient treatment. However, in actual circumstances, there are so many time-consuming issues that delays device repair for weeks or even months; therefore, it is required to prepare alternative ways for quick repair service. In this study, we first mentioned about the regulation issues in Korea about the 3D printing-based medical device repair, and then introduced the results of our preliminary study that evaluated the feasibility of 3D printing-based medical device repair before real-field application. Results of the study demonstrated that, in all of the 23 cases, parts for repair that were manufactured by 3D-printing were successfully fixed and connected to the main body of the original device, and showed sufficient rigidity for protecting internal parts of the device. Considering the experimental results, medical device repair by applying 3D printing technology can be a promising alternative in cases when regular repair process is not available or takes too much time.

Material extrusion (ME)-type 3D printing is the most popular among the 3D printing processes. In this study, the cross-section morphologies of ME-type 3D printing manufactured specimens were observed with respect to the thermal properties of the material. The cross-section morphology of a specimen is related to the deposition strength, and the outside profile of the cross-section is related to the surface roughness. The filaments used in this study, with different thermal conductivities, were the acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), the high impact polystyrene (HIPS), the glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate (PETG), and the polylactic acid (PLA). The cross-sections and the surfaces of the 3D manufactured specimens were examined. In ME-type 3D printing, the filaments are extruded through a nozzle and they form a layer. These layers rapidly solidify and as a result, they become a product. The thermal conductivity of the material influences the cooling and solidification of the layers, and subsequently the cross-section morphology and the surface roughness.

탄성파 축소모형 실험에서의 3D 프린팅 기술 활용에 관하여 파악하였으며, 국내에서 수행되고 있는 연구를 서술하였다. 먼저 3D 프린팅 기술을 적층 방식에 따라 7가지로 분류하여 설명하였다. 3D 프린팅 기술 활용을 파악하기 위하여 물리탐사 분야의 국내외 학술지에서 관련 연구를 검색하였고 관련 연구를 연도 및 3D 프린팅 적층 방식에 따라 종합적인 분석을 수행하였다. 분석 결과, 2010년대부터 연구가 수행되어 왔으며, 이는 3D 프린터의 상용화 시점과 비슷한 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 논문의 87%가 material extrusion 적층 방식을 활용하였으며, 수행된 연구들은 특정 대학에 집중되어 수행되었다. 본 연구 내용을 활용한다면 탄성파 축소모형 실험 분야에서 3D 프린팅 기술 활용에 대한 기초자료로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

PURPOSE. To evaluate the accuracy of a model made using the computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacture (CAD/CAM) milling method and 3D printing method and to confirm its applicability as a work model for dental prosthesis production. MATERIALS AND METHODS. First, a natural tooth model (ANA-4, Frasaco, Germany) was scanned using an oral scanner. The obtained scan data were then used as a CAD reference model (CRM), to produce a total of 10 models each, either using the milling method or the 3D printing method. The 20 models were then scanned using a desktop scanner and the CAD test model was formed. The accuracy of the two groups was compared using dedicated software to calculate the root mean square (RMS) value after superimposing CRM and CAD test model (CTM). RESULTS. The RMS value ($152{\pm}52{\mu}m$) of the model manufactured by the milling method was significantly higher than the RMS value ($52{\pm}9{\mu}m$) of the model produced by the 3D printing method. CONCLUSION. The accuracy of the 3D printing method is superior to that of the milling method, but at present, both methods are limited in their application as a work model for prosthesis manufacture.

3D printing has been expanding beyond the bio/nano field to the automobile and aviation industries. 3D-printing technology has to overcome real problems to have economic value compared to its unlimited usability. Typically, the difference in mechanical strength along the lamination direction requires sufficient research to ensure reliability. In this paper, we study the anisotropic properties of ABS based on the stacking method of FDM 3D printing. Specifically, the mechanical properties of ABS material are determined through a tensile test and 3-point bending test, and the in-plane orthotropic properties are ascertained.

The development of thermoelectric (TE) materials to replace Bi₂Te₃ alloys is emerging as a hot issue with the potential for wider practical applications. In particular, layered Zintl-phase materials, which can appropriately control carrier and phonon transport behaviors, are being considered as promising candidates. However, limited data have been reported on the thermoelectric properties of metal-Sb materials that can be transformed into layered materials through the insertion of cations. In this study, we synthesized FeSb and MnSb, which are used as base materials for advanced thermoelectric materials. They were confirmed as single-phase materials by analyzing X-ray diffraction patterns. Based on electrical conductivity, the Seebeck coefficient, and thermal conductivity of both materials characterized as a function of temperature, the zT values of MnSb and FeSb were calculated to be 0.00119 and 0.00026, respectively. These properties provide a fundamental data for developing layered Zintl-phase materials with alkali/alkaline earth metal insertions.

3D 프린팅 기술은 4차산업 혁명 중 제조업의 혁신적인 기술로서 전망되고 있으며, 현재 바이오 의료 분야를 포함한 다양한 분야에서 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 3D 프린팅 기술을 이용한 제작 원료에 대한 방사선 차폐능을 평가하고자 몬테카를로 전산모사를 통해 프린팅 원료에 대한 검증을 수행하였다. 현재 범용으로 사용되는 FDM 방식의 3D 프린터에서 이용 가능한 원료들을 대상으로 하였으며, ICRU phan tom과 차폐체를 모의 모사한 후 방사선의 종류 및 에너지에 따른 입자 플루언스 평가를 통해 차폐 효과에 대해 분석하였다. 그 결과, 광자선의 경우 에너지 증가에 따라 차폐 효과는 점차 감소되는 경향을 보였고, 원료별 차폐 효과는 TPU, PLA, PVA, Nylon, ABS 순서로 점차적으로 낮아지는 결과를 나타냈다. 중성자선의 경우, 5~10 mm의 낮은 두께에서 반대로 선속이 증가되는 현상을 보였으나, 일정 두께 이상에서는 유효한 차폐 효과를 나타내었으며, 프린팅 원료별 차폐 효과는 Nylon, PVA, ABS, PLA, TPU 순서로 점차 낮아지는 결과를 보였다.
