Especially in the field of dentistry, jewelry and related branches that require individualized or even one-of-a-kind products, the direct digital manufacturing process opens up new ways of design and manufacturing. In these fields, mostly small and medium sized businesses (SME) are operating which do not have sufficient human and economic resources to invest in this technology. But to stay competitive, the application of AM can be regarded as a necessity. In this situation a new desktop machine (Realizer SLM 50) was introduced that cost about 1/3 of a shop floor SLM machine and promises small quality parts. To find out whether the machine really is an alternative for SMEs the University of Applied Science, Aachen, Germany, designed, build and optimized typical parts from the dentistry and the jewelry branches using CoCr and silver material, the latter being new with this application. The paper describes the SLM procedure and how to find and optimize the most important parameters. The test is accompanied by digital simulation in order to verify the build parameters and to plan future builds. The procedure is shown as well as the resulting parts made from CoCr and silver material.}, language = {en} } @article{StarkeAhlbehrendtBischoffetal.2009, author = {Starke, G{\"u}nther and Ahlbehrendt, Norbert and Bischoff, Rainer and Melzer, Harald and Sieber, Sven and Senk, Burkhard and Kramarczyk, Peter}, title = {RoboTOOL.

High-performance polymers are the key to mold production for prototypes and small series. However, the high temperatures during vulcanization injection molding cause thermal aging and can impair service life. The extent to which the thermal stress over the entire process chain stresses the material and whether it leads to irreversible material aging is evaluated. To this end, a mold made of PEEK is fabricated using fused filament fabrication and examined for its potential application. The mold is heated to 200 ◦C, filled with rubber, and cured. A differential scanning calorimetry analysis of each process step illustrates the crystallization behavior and first indicates the material resistance. It shows distinct cold crystallization regions at a build chamber temperature of 90 ◦C. At an ambient temperature above Tg, crystallization of 30\% is achieved, and cold crystallization no longer occurs. Additional tensile tests show a decrease in tensile strength after ten days of thermal aging. The steady decrease in recrystallization temperature indicates degradation of the additives. However, the tensile tests reveal steady embrittlement of the material due to increasing crosslinking.}, language = {en} } @article{ZieburaBremenSchleifenbaumetal.2018, author = {Ziebura, Dawid and Bremen, Sebastian and Schleifenbaum, Johannes Henrich and Gebhardt, Andreas}, title = {Machbarkeitsstudie zur Verarbeitung von nicht rostendem Stahl 1.4404 unter Verwendung einer Diodenlaser-basierten LPBF-Maschine mit kartesischem Achssystem}, series = {RTejournal - Forum f{\"u}r Rapid Technologie}, volume = {15}, journal = {RTejournal - Forum f{\"u}r Rapid Technologie}, issn = {1614-0923}, year = {2018}, language = {de} } @article{FateriGebhardtThuemmleretal.2014, author = {Fateri, Miranda and Gebhardt, Andreas and Th{\"u}mmler, Stefan and Thurn, Laura}, title = {Experimental investigation on selective laser melting of glass}, series = {Physics procedia : 8th International Conference on Laser Assisted Net Shape Engineering LANE 2014}, volume = {56 (2014)}, journal = {Physics procedia : 8th International Conference on Laser Assisted Net Shape Engineering LANE 2014}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1875-3892 (E-Journal); 1875-3884 (Print)}, doi = {10.1016/j.phpro.2014.08.118}, pages = {357 -- 364}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @article{HaagZontarSchleupenetal.2014, author = {Haag, S. and Zontar, D. and Schleupen, Josef and M{\"u}ller, T. and Brecher, C.}, title = {Chain of refined perception in self-optimizing assembly of micro-optical systems}, series = {Journal of sensors and sensor systems}, volume = {3}, journal = {Journal of sensors and sensor systems}, number = {1}, publisher = {Copernicus Publ.}, address = {G{\"o}ttingen}, issn = {2194-878X}, doi = {10.5194/jsss-3-87-2014}, pages = {87 -- 95}, year = {2014}, abstract = {Today, the assembly of laser systems requires a large share of manual operations due to its complexity regarding the optimal alignment of optics. Although the feasibility of automated alignment of laser optics has been shown in research labs, the development effort for the automation of assembly does not meet economic requirements - especially for low-volume laser production. This paper presents a model-based and sensor-integrated assembly execution approach for flexible assembly cells consisting of a macro-positioner covering a large workspace and a compact micromanipulator with camera attached to the positioner. In order to make full use of available models from computer-aided design (CAD) and optical simulation, sensor systems at different levels of accuracy are used for matching perceived information with model data. This approach is named "chain of refined perception", and it allows for automated planning of complex assembly tasks along all major phases of assembly such as collision-free path planning, part feeding, and active and passive alignment. The focus of the paper is put on the in-process image-based metrology and information extraction used for identifying and calibrating local coordinate systems as well as the exploitation of that information for a part feeding process for micro-optics. Results will be presented regarding the processes of automated calibration of the robot camera as well as the local coordinate systems of part feeding area and robot base.}, language = {en} } @article{RieperGebhardtStucker2016, author = {Rieper, Harald and Gebhardt, Andreas and Stucker, Brent}, title = {Selective Laser Melting of the Eutectic Silver-Copper Alloy Ag 28 wt \% Cu}, series = {RTejournal - Forum f{\"u}r Rapid Technologie}, volume = {13}, journal = {RTejournal - Forum f{\"u}r Rapid Technologie}, issn = {1614-0923}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/nbn:de:0009-2-44141}, year = {2016}, abstract = {The aim of this work was to perform a detailed investigation of the use of Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technology to process eutectic silver-copper alloy Ag 28 wt. \% Cu (also called AgCu28).

The interdisciplinary approach is shown using the complex example of an automated, large scale, industrial environment: a typical automotive wind tunnel application. Both the high degree of flexibility in choosing the measurement region and the complete automation of stereo PIV measurements are presented. The setup consists of a combination of three robots, individually used as a 6D traversing unit for the laser illumination system as well as for each of the two cameras. Synchronised movements in the same reference frame are realised through a master-slave setup with a single interface to the user. By integrating the interface into the standard wind tunnel management system, a single measurement plane or a predefined sequence of several planes can be requested through a single trigger event, providing the resulting vector fields within minutes. In this paper, a brief overview on the demands of large scale industrial PIV and the existing solutions is given. Afterwards, the concept of RoboPIV is introduced as a new approach. In a first step, the usability of a selection of commercially available robot arms is analysed. The challenges of pose uncertainty and importance of absolute accuracy are demonstrated through comparative measurements, explaining the individual pros and cons of the analysed systems. Subsequently, the advantage of integrating RoboPIV directly into the existing wind tunnel management system is shown on basis of a typical measurement sequence. In a final step, a practical measurement procedure, including post-processing, is given by using real data and results. Ultimately, the benefits of high automation are demonstrated, leading to a drastic reduction in necessary measurement time compared to non-automated systems, thus massively increasing the efficiency of PIV measurements.}, language = {en} }
