Abstract Scope |
Competetive and Hobby grade Rocket makers quite often build custom nozzles. Solid freeform fabrication is most natural choice for Manufacturing of the Nozzles. Differnt geometries can be quickly manufactured and tested. However staircase effect and limited accuracy of 2-1/2 based deposition prevents the design intent from fabrication. Additionally using differnt blends of ceramic and sustaining the geometry during curing becomes challenging. This research presents a unique 3D printing system that dispenses ceramic to enable manufacturing of axi-symmetric parts as continuous bead. Relative motion of the material dispenser and rotational substrate as well as unique path planning enables a continually sculpted surface to reduce the staircase effects. |
