OAK RIDGE, Tenn. (WATE) — Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed the technology to manufacture parts for cars, airplanes, and drones through 3D printing according to a release from ORNL.
Additive manufacturing compression molding is the technology. Prints a polymer filled with short fibers Continuous fiber onto a moldThen, it is then You can also click here to read more aboutORNL stated in the press release.
It is a process that results in accurate finished pieces You can use it to create parts You can also like us on Facebook propeller blades The following are some examples of how to get started: Battery boxes ONRL said that it could speed up the process of decarbonizing vehicles, aircraft, and drones.
ORNL researchers say that they have found that it is possible to make a variety of materials. In five hours you can do 100 pieces. The following are some examples of how to get started: each piece You can take a look here In less than three minutes You can print.
“By combining the fiber control of additive with the low porosity of compression molding, we can enable the high-volume production of next-generation composites,” ORNL’s Vipin Kumar said. “The mobility and aerospace industries need these lightweight materials to improve the energy efficiency of their applications.”
Researchers on this project include Vipin Kumar and Vlastimil Knc, as well Ahmed A. Hassen.
AMCM has recently been licensed by Orbital CompositesORNL said it had collaborated with California’s AMCM to create a robotic system. IACMI – The Composites Institute ORNL has also collaborated on the venture.
