Feasibility of Building an Overhang Structure Using Direct Metal Deposition

چکیده
This paper summarizes a theoretical and an experimental approach to employ the Direct Metal Deposition (DMD) process to adjudge the feasibility of depositing overhang features. The DMD process is a process capable of directly manufacturing a fully dense metal part without the use of any intermediate steps. This process, comprised of a laser deposition setup coupled with a 5-axis CNC milling system, provides a capability to produce a finished part with superior surface qualities.. This paper discusses the issues and related tools in the feasibility of depositing an overhang structure using the hybrid deposition-machining process, including laser deposition process, system design and integration & process planning. A successful experimental work is also been carried out using one of the tools to justify the feasibility of the overhang structure. The preliminary model is constructed which resulted in a combination of 178.9 mm/min feed-rate and an angle of 34.9 degrees of laser incidence angle were determined to be the optimum process parameters in „extension mode‟ (4 axis) for maximizing the overhang distance.

Background and Aim: An important criterion for success assessment of implant-supported prostheses is marginal fit. Vertical and horizontal discrepancy can result in loosening of the prosthetic screw, crestal bone resorption, peri-implantitis and loss of osseointegration. Despite careful attention to waxing, investing, and casting, marginal discrepancies are inevitable. The aim of this study was...

This study investigates the feasibility of a novel concept, contact-free support structures, for part overhangs in powder-bed metal additive manufacturing. The intent is to develop alternative support designs that require no or little post-processing, and yet, maintain effective in minimizing overhang distortions. The idea is to build, simultaneously during part fabrications, a heat sink (calle...

The limitation of land in big cities has caused the vertical growth of cities; for example, high-rise buildings on the ground and underground urban facilities can be mentioned. This restriction has increased the value of land in cities, and on the other hand, it has created some new and complicated technical and legal aspects in the cadastral issues. To respond to these new technical and legal ...
