Mechanical properties of additively manufactured structures fabricated using material extrusion additive manufacturing are predicted through combining thermal modeling with entanglement theory and ...

In this work, a heat transfer model is developed for thermally-driven material extrusion additive manufacturing of semicrystalline polymers that considers the heat generated during crystallization by ...

At the heart of the cell are four compact single-screw extruders, which enable additive manufacturing based on standard granulates and are guided by industrial robots. Here, the spatial degrees of ...

In today's tough economy, manufacturers are squeezing every ounce of cost savings and efficiency they can from their processes — from materials handling to scrap reduction. Upstream auxiliary ...

A new paper evaluates gum arabic as a natural binder for paste extrusion of rice husks, pointing to a low cost and bio based path for additive manufacturing.

Tarrytown, N.Y.-based Ampacet Corp. says it is introducing the first gravimetric feeder that enables accurate dosing down to one pellet for the micromolding segment of the medical, automotive and ...
