  1. 6. Tribological and Mechanical Behaviour of 3D Printed Polymeric Bearings

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Sallar Ali Qazi; [2021]
    Keywords : Additive manufacturing; Rapid prototyping; 3D-Printing; Fused Filament Fabrication FFF ; Fused Deposition Modeling FDM ; Tribology; polyoxymethylene POM ;

    Abstract : Plastics contribute 2 GTons to the global carbon footprint, today, several countries have set targets to achieve carbon neutrality. Plastics, being a major contributor to global carbon footprint, would need to be reduced significantly from our daily life to achieve that or a way needs to be devised to recycle them. READ MORE

  3. 7. 3D Printed Customized Tooling Development Approach

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT); Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för skog och träteknik (SOT)

    Author : Sami Thawaba; [2021]
    Keywords : Additive Manufacturing; Rapid prototyping; Lean Manufacturing; User Centered Design; jigs; fixture;

    Abstract : 3D printing technologies have been gaining a lot of popularity in the last fifteen years, technologies like Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printing have never been as accessible as they are today, and with the introduction of the desktop 3D printer, the technology is becoming a mainstream tool for developing prototypes and direct part production from a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) file. In an industrial context, the technology is utilized for different purposes, among which is the development and production of customized and task-specific tools. READ MORE

  4. 8. Automation of Fused Filament Fabrication : Realizing Small Batch Rapid Production

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : AXEL ANDERSSON; [2021]
    Keywords : Additive manufacturing; fused filament fabrication; FFF; fused deposition modeling; FDM; automation; rapid production; small batch; 3D-printing; Additiv tillverkning; fused filament fabrication; FFF; fused deposition modeling; FDM; automatisering; rapid production; small batch; 3D-printning;

    Abstract : In this bachelor thesis, I examine how automation of fused filament fabrication (FFF) can be implemented, and what the limitations are for different kinds of automation solutions for FFF. Fused filament fabrication is a 3D-printing technology where a material is extruded through a nozzle, layer by layer, to create a print. READ MORE

  5. 9. Closed-Loop Control of a 3D Printed Soft Actuator with Soft Position Sensors

    University essay from KTH/Mekatronik

    Author : Jakob Jansson; Mikael Sjöberg; [2021]
    Keywords : Soft Actuators; 3D Printing; Closed-Loop Control; Strain Sensor; Soft Gripper; Mjuka Ställdon; 3D-Skrivning; Återkopplad Kontroll; Töjningssensor; Mjukt Gripdon;

    Abstract : This thesis performs closed-loop control of a 3D printed soft bending actuator with feedback from a 3D printed strain sensor. This process utilizes the Finite Element Method (FEM) to design a bellow type pneumatic bending actuator that can handle pressures up to 4 bar. READ MORE

  6. 10. Fused deposition modeling of API-loaded mesoporous magnesium carbonate

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nanoteknologi och funktionella material

    Author : Andreas Abdelki; [2020]
    Keywords : Additive manufacturing; 3D-printing; Fused deposition modeling FDM ; Fused filament fabrication FFF ; Drug delivery; Amorphous drugs; Mesoporous magnesium carbonate; Upsalite; Cinnarizine; Hydroxypropyl cellulose HPC ; Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate HPMCAS ; Klucel ELF; AquaSolve LG;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the incorporation of drug loaded mesoporous magnesium carbonate as an excipient for the additive manufacturing of oral tablets by fused deposition modeling was investigated. Cinnarizine, a BCS class II drug, was loaded into the pores of the mesoporous material via a soaking method, corresponding to a drug loading of 8.68 wt%. READ MORE
