ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

 Additive manufacturing is the process of creating an object by building it one


layer at a time. It is the opposite of subtractive manufacturing, in which an object
is created by cutting away at a solid block of material until the final product is
complete.
FUSED DEPOSITION
MODELLING (FDM)
 FDM uses a heating chamber to liquefy polymer that is fed into the system as a
filament.
 The filament is pushed into the chamber by a tractor wheel arrangement and it is
this pushing that generates the extrusion pressure.
 The major strength of FDM is in the range of materials and the effective
mechanical properties of resulting parts made using this technology.
 Parts made using FDM are amongst the strongest for any polymer based
additive manufacturing process.
Slicing into various thickness

• Thickness of layer increases  Surface roughness increases


 No. of layers required for construction decreases
PROCEDURE FOR 3-D
PRINTING
WHAT IS STL FORMAT???
• STL (Stereo Lithography) is a file format native to the stereo
lithography CAD software.
• Creates a mesh using triangles.
• The main purpose of the STL file format is to encode the
surface geometry of a 3D object.
Lets build up a step by step approach to print a 3D
printed component

3D CAD data CAD solid model STL file


RP prototype
 Design the component in Solid Edge and export it as .Stl file.
 Then make use of Idea maker slicing software to convert into g-code format since its
accepted by 3D printer (i.e. .CMB format or Chromeleon Backup Archive).
Application’s

 3-D printing finds its application in various sectors like prototyping & manufacturing in
aerospace & automobile industries , for creating surgical instruments as well as body
implants , for providing demonstration of various devices infield of education and many
more.
