Additive manufacturing using Fused Filament Fabrication and high-performance polymers like PEEK offer a promising future in this industry. This study assesses the compressive strength of various infill structures (honeycomb, grid, triangle, cubic, and gyroid) when considering two distinct build directions (Z, XY) to enhance PEEK's economic and resource efficiency in rapid tooling. A comparison with PETG samples shows the behavior of the infill strategies. Additionally, a proof of concept illustrates the application of a PEEK mold in vulcanization. A peak compressive strength of 135.6 MPa was attained in specimens that were 100\% solid and subjected to thermal post-treatment. This corresponds to a 20\% strength improvement in the Z direction. In terms of time and mechanical properties, the anisotropic grid and isotropic cubic infill have emerged for use in rapid tooling. Furthermore, the study highlights that reducing the layer thickness from 0.15 mm to 0.1 mm can result in a 15\% strength increase. The study unveils the successful utilization of a room-temperature FFF-printed PEEK mold in vulcanization injection molding. The parameters and infill strategies identified in this research enable the resource-efficient FFF printing of PEEK without compromising its strength properties. Using PEEK in rapid tooling allows a cost reduction of up to 70\% in tool production.}, language = {en} } @misc{OPUS4-10805, title = {Pr{\"u}fungsordnung f{\"u}r die Bachelorstudieng{\"a}nge „Biotechnologie" und „Biotechnologie mit Praxis- oder Auslandssemester" im Fachbereich Chemie und Biotechnologie an der FH Aachen}, address = {Aachen}, organization = {FH Aachen}, pages = {12 Seiten}, year = {2023}, abstract = {\S 1 | Geltungsbereich der Pr{\"u}fungsordnung \S 2 | Ziel des Studiums, Zweck der Pr{\"u}fung, Abschlussgrad \S 3 | Beginn, Dauer, Umfang und Gliederung des Studiums \S 4 | Zugang zum Studium, Praktikum \S 5 | Pr{\"u}fungsausschuss \S 6 | Studien- und Pr{\"u}fungselemente \S 7 | Zulassung zu den Pr{\"u}fungen \S 8 | Durchf{\"u}hrung von Pr{\"u}fungen \S 9 | Verbesserungsversuch \S 10 | Anrechnung von Studienzeiten, Studien- und Pr{\"u}fungsleistungen \S 11 | Praxissemester \S 12 | Mobilit{\"a}tssemester (Auslandssemester) \S 13 | Bachelorprojekt\S 14 | Gesamtnote, Zeugnis, Bachelorurkunde \S 15 | Inkrafttreten, Ver{\"o}ffentlichung Anlage 1 | Studienplan Kernstudium Anlage 2 | Allgemeine Kompetenzen}, language = {de} } @misc{OPUS4-11128, title = {Dimensionen Nr. 30 / 2023: Magazin der FH Aachen University of Applied Sciences - Der Mensch im Mittelpunkt}, address = {Aachen}, organization = {Fachhochschule Aachen}, pages = {62 Seiten}, year = {2023}, abstract = {06| Warum es gemeinsam besser geht 10| Interview 14| Wer ist hier der Boss? 18| Schnittstelle zwischen Mensch und Technik 22| Zweite Heimat J{\"u}lich 28| Zwischen Angst und Hoffnung 32| Eine Sternstunde f{\"u}r die FH Aachen 36| Gegen alle Widerst{\"a}nde 38| Ein Ort, der bleibt 42| Der Aufbl{\"u}hende 46| Der Computer sitzt am Steuer 52| Da geht das Herz auf 54| Hoch hinaus 58| Beratungsangebote 60| Das alte Sch{\"a}tzchen}, language = {de} }
