Definitions
- the present invention relates to the manufacture of three- dimensional forms and more particularly relates to the manufacture of a three- dimensional form by the successive layer-by-layer build up of a composite including particles in a hardened binder material.
- PCT/DE01/03834 WO 02/26419 (PCT/DEOO/03324), and WO 02/083323 (PCT/DE02/01103), all of which are hereby expressly incorporated by reference.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,204,055 addresses a method that includes layer based deposition of untreated particulated material.
- a binder material is liquid dosed to selectively bind the particles.
- the binder is hardened and the part is unpacked.
- the patent is limited in its teachings with regard to sequencing for contacting of particles with agents for binding the particles.
- WO96/050308 there is disclosed a method for production of bone implants including mixing a powder with a binder, layer based deposition, selectively laser sintering or selectively spraying an agent on top of each layer to bind the particles.
- the document likewise is limited in its teachings with regard to sequencing for contacting of particles with agents for binding the particles.
- the present invention is predicated upon the discovery of a new method for manufacturing a three-dimensional form, comprising the steps of providing a plurality of particulates; contacting at least a portion of a surface of the particulates with an activation agent; contacting a pre-selected portion of the particulates having the activation agent with a binder material that is activatable by the activation agent; hardening the binder for forming a layer of the three-dimensional form; and repeating these steps to form the remainder of the three-dimensional form.
- the unbound particles are appropriately removed (and optionally re-used), resulting in the formation of the desired three-dimensional form.
- the binder material is selectively supplied to the particulates (e.g., by using an ink-jet printing technique, or other suitable technique for precise fluid dispensing), in accordance with a computer model of the three-dimensional part being formed, such as from the use of a Computer Aided Design (CAD) file (e.g., CAD file data that results from a finite element analysis).
- CAD Computer Aided Design
- predefined sub-areas of each layer can be varied relative to adjoining layers.
- the agent is adapted to effectively create a binder for firmly coupling adjoining particles, whether by Van der Waals forces, cross-linking, other covalent bonding, ionic bonding, metallic bonding, combinations thereof or by another mechanism).
- each layer of the form being manufactured is initially provided as a layer including a plurality of particulates in the absence of a binder material.
- the binder material is dispensed by a suitable fluid dispenser into the respective sub-areas of a layer whereupon it contacts an activation agent and is activated for hardening to form a matrix that has the particles firmly held within it.
- the binder material and the activation agent may be dispensed individually onto a layer of particles, or that particles may be dispensed onto a layer, film or other area of activation agent, it is most preferred that the binder material is dispensed onto a sub-area of a layer of particles that are contacted, prior to dispensing of the binder material with an activation agent.
- an advantageous method for making a three dimensional form could comprise the steps of providing a plurality of particulates; contacting at least a portion of a surface of the particulates with a multiple- component binder material system including a binder material as one of the components; hardening the binder for forming a layer of the three-dimensional form; repeating the steps to form the remainder of the three-dimensional form; and re-claiming unbound particulates, said unbound particulates being free of binder material.
- the present invention also affords other benefits.
- functional groups or reactive components of the binder material are susceptible to evaporation, especially at higher temperatures.
- the ability to better control and even delay when the binder material is going to be contacted with particles helps to assure that a greater effective amount of the functional groups or reactive components will be present over time.
- consumption of overall amounts of the binder material can be further reduced, as compared with a process in which the binder material is contacted initially with particles, prior to the activation agent.
- furane resin is employed as a binder for a sand, it is more likely that at higher temperatures, the furfurylic alcohol of the resin will evaporate at higher temperatures.
- the sand has to be used very quick (e.g., within minutes) after mixing with the furane resin, or else the sand must be sealed, in order to preserve the efficacy of the binder material.
- the activation agent e.g., an acid such as sulfuric acid that is relatively stable at normal operating conditions
- the activation agent will very often not be susceptible to substantial effects of temperature or atmosphere.
- enhanced particle stability permits for longer delays between steps, as well as the introduction of additional intermediate processing steps. Delays between steps of 2 hours or more, or as long as 12 hours are also possible, without compromising particle reactivity or stability.
- particles contacted with an activation agent as disclosed herein can await 24 hours or more and remain free of degradation to binding function, in the absence of contacting with a binder material.
- kits for supplying the necessary consumable materials to carry out the preferred methods may include a first container including a binder material, and a second container including a particulated material and an activation agent for the binder material.
