Abstract
Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D-printing (3DP) technology, is an advanced manufacturing technology that has developed rapidly in the past 40 years. However, the ceramic material printing is still challenging because of the issue of cracking. Indirect 3D printing has been designed and drawn attention because of its high manufacturing speed and low cost. Indirect 3D printing separates the one-step forming process of direct 3D printing into binding and material sintering, avoiding the internal stress caused by rapid cooling, making it possible to realize the high-quality ceramic component with complex shape. This paper presents the research progress of leading indirect 3D printing technologies, including binder jetting (BJ), stereolithography (SLA), and fused deposition modeling (FDM). At present, the additive manufacturing of ceramic materials is mainly achieved through indirect 3D printing technology, and these materials include silicon nitride, hydroxyapatite functional ceramics, silicon carbide structural ceramics.
摘要
增材制造(AM),也称为3D 打印(3DP)技术,是一种在过去40 年中发展迅速的先进制造技术。然而,由于开裂的问题,陶瓷材料的打印仍然具有挑战性。间接3D 打印由于其快制造速度和低成本而受到关注。间接3D 打印将直接3D 打印的一步成型过程分为粘结和材料烧结,避免了由于快速冷却而导致的内应力,从而可以实现形状复杂的高质量陶瓷组件的制备。本文介绍了先进的间接3D 打印技术的研究进展,包括黏结剂喷射(BJ),立体光刻(SLA)和熔融沉积建模(FDM)。目前,陶瓷材料的增材制造主要是通过间接3D 打印技术实现的,这些材料包括氮化硅,羟基磷灰石功能陶瓷,碳化硅结构陶瓷。
