Problem-Solving Materials: Utilizing 3D Data Edition 1-2 | Deformation in Metal 3D Printing
The unavoidable issue of "deformation" in metal 3D printers... What are the countermeasures? A resource for identifying and solving problems in production sites.
This document is a series that proposes solutions to various challenges faced in production sites, from identifying issues to finding resolutions. In the "3D Data Utilization Edition," we will introduce various solutions to manufacturing challenges through the use of 3D data. This document focuses on the theme of "deformation in metal 3D printing," explaining the mechanisms behind deformation in printed objects and methods for alleviating it. [Document Overview] Metal 3D printers, capable of creating complex shapes that cannot be produced by other processing methods, are seeing active technological development not only in Western countries but also within Japan. However, an inevitable challenge that arises with metal 3D printed objects is "deformation," which cannot be avoided due to the nature of the process. To achieve accurate printing as per the design, it is essential to understand the causes of deformation and to implement appropriate measures throughout the entire printing process. This document serves as the first installment in introducing solutions to the "deformation" challenge, explaining the mechanisms behind deformation and effective methods for its resolution. *You can download the document using the button below.*
