적층조형(additive manufacturing, AM)은 액체, 고체 상태인 폴리머, 금속 등의 재료를 층층이 쌓아서 3 차원 형상을 제조하는 기술이다. AM 기술은 제품 개발 초기단계에서 시제품 제작에 주로 사용되었으나, 최근 들어 이를 실제 제품제작에 적용하는 것에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 한편 AM 기술에서 적층방향은 최종성형품의 기계적 물성에 영향을 줄 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 폴리머 재료를 사용하는 대표적인 AM 기술인 FDM, PolyJet 그리고 SLA 방식으로 제작되는 재료의 기계적 물성을 실험을 통해 파악하여 보았다. 이때 시험편의 형상은 ASTM D 638 을 참고하였고 적층방향을 달리하여 성형하였다. 시험편의 인장시험으로부터 얻은 응력-변형률 선도를 바탕으로 기계적 물성을 조사하였다. 또한 시험편의 파단부를 SEM 촬영하여 물성차이의 결과를 분석하였다.

최근 다양한 분야에 적용되고 있는 적층 가공 기술(AM)은 복잡한 형상 제조 및 재료 비용 절감으로 인해 혁신적인 제품 생산 방법으로 각광을 받고 있다. 그 중에서도 압출적층조형(Fused Deposition Modeling, FDM) 공정을 통한 친환경 부품 제조는 의료 분야산업에서 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 친환경 생분해성 재료인 Poly Lactic Acid(PLA)를 사용한 FDM 공정 실험을 수행하고 제작된 적층 시편에 대한 인장 시험을 적용하여 주요 FDM 공정 변수인 적층 두께, 적층 방향, 적층 충진량이 인장 시편의 기계적 성질에 미치는 영향을 정량적 및 정성적으로 분석하고 이를 극대화하는 각 공정 변수의 최적값을 도출하였다.

PolyJet technology is an additive manufacturing (AM) technology commonly used for modeling, prototyping, and production applications. It is one of the techniques used for 3D printing. The PolyJet technique is a process that joins materials to fabricate a product from 3D CAD data in a layer-by-layer manner. The orientation of a layer can affect the mechanical properties of the product manufactured by the PolyJet technique because of its anisotropy. In this paper, tensile and shearing tests of specimens were developed with the PolyJet technique in order to study the mechanical properties according to the orientation of a layer. The mechanical properties of the specimens were determined on the basis of true stress-strain curves from tensile and shearing tests. In addition, the tensile and shearing tests were simulated under the same conditions as those of experiment, and the experiment and simulated results were compared. Through this study, the fracture criteria could be established.

Multi-material Additive Manufacturing (AM) is being focused to apply for direct manufacturing of a product. In this paper, a three-dimensional circuit device (3DCD) fabrication technology based on the multi-material AM technology was proposed. In contrast with conventional two-dimensional Printed Circuit Board (PCB), circuit elements and conducting wires of 3DCD are placed in threedimensional configuration at multiple layers of the structure. Therefore, 3DCD technology can improve design freedom of an electronic product. In this paper, 3DCD technology is proposed based on AM technology. Two types of 3DCD fabrication systems were developed based on the Stereolithography and the Fused Deposition Modeling technologies. And the 3DCD samples which have same function were fabricated, successfully.

Additive manufacturing (AM) is a highly innovative method for joining dissimilar materials for industrial applications. In the present work, AM of STS630 and Ti-6Al-4V powder alloys on medium entropy alloys (MEAs) NiCrCo and NiCrCoMn is studied. The STS630 and Ti64 powders are deposited on the MEAs. Joint delamination and cracks are observed after the deposition of Ti64 on the MEAs, whereas the deposition of STS630 on the MEAs is successful, without any cracks and joint delamination. The microstructure around the fusion zone interface is characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Intermetallic compounds are formed at the interfacial regions of MEA-Ti64 samples. In addition, Vicker's hardness value increased dramatically at the joint interface between MEAs and Ti-6Al-4V compared to that between MEAs and STS630. This result is attributed to the brittle nature of the joint, which can lead to a decrease in the joint strength.

Nowadays, additive manufacturing (AM) technology is a promising process to fabricate complex shaped devices applied in medical and dental services. Among the AM processes, a DLP (digital light processing) type 3D printing process has some advantages, such as high precision, relatively low cost, etc. In this work, we propose a simple method to fabricate precise dental models using a DLP 3D printer. After 3D printing, a part is commonly post-cured using secondary UV-curing equipment for complete polymerization. However, some shrinkage occurs during the post-curing process, so we adaptively control the UV-exposure time on each layer for over- or under-curing to change the local shape-size of a part in the DLP process. From the results, the shrinkage amounts in the post-curing process vary due to the UV-dose in 3D printing. We believe that the proposed method can be utilized to fabricate dental models precisely, even with a change of the 3D CAD model.
