Comparison of Polyjet Printing and Silicon Moulding as Rapid Plastic Moulding Solutions
نویسنده
چکیده
The aim of the present investigation is to compare two rapid molding (RM) solutions, namely polyjet printing (PP) and silicon molding (SM), for the manufacture of plastic components. The comparison has been made on the basis of dimensional accuracy (as per IT grades), mechanical properties (namely surface hardness, surface roughness) and production cost. The comparison of the experimental results will serve as a yard stick for the further selection of processes for industrial applications.

Determination of Material Properties for Biodegradable Polylactic Acid Plastic Used in 3D Printers
Within Rapid Prototyping technologies are used many types of materials. Many of them are recyclable but there are still as plastic like, so practically they do not degrade in the landfill. Polylactic acid (PLA) is one of the special plastic materials, which are biodegradable and available for 3D printing within Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technology. The question is, if the mechanical prope...

For automotive plastic parts, mostly used for interior assemblies, there is a clear demand of an increased accuracy of the simulation model. One crucial input for the simulation model is the correct material data. Based on test data, it is known that the dynamic material properties of a plastic part can differ significantly from the material data given in the data sheet (which is based on a spe...

Abstract—The plastic industry plays very important role in the economy of any country. It is generally among the leading share of the economy of the country. Since metals and their alloys are very rarely available on the earth. Therefore, to produce plastic products and components, which finds application in many industrial as well as household consumer products is beneficial. Since 50% plastic...

This paper presents a printed near field communication system that can be integrated into everyday objects, like paper products or plastic parts. The interface is realised by high-volume production technologies, like printing and injection moulding, as they allow for the integration of “low-end” electronics at low costs and, thus, potentially enable a wide spreading of the technology. As a firs...

There is an increased demand within the moulding industry to improve the quality of moulded parts by maintaining consistent tolerances and overall dimensions. This interest is more important in areas of the moulding industry that are dedicated to pharmaceutical devices, where a quality by design approach is now expected to be adopted. A pharmaceutical device is an assembly of different plastic ...
