  • Experimental Investigation of PolyJet 3D Printing Process: Effects of Finish Type and Material Color on Color Appearance
    Volume 2A: Advanced Manufacturing, 2019
    Co-Authors: Li Zeng
    Abstract:

    Abstract The Stratasys J750 PolyJet printer is capable of printing full-color parts. However, little information is currently available about the effects of finish type and material color on color appearance of parts printed by the PolyJet process. In this study, the effects of finish type and material color on color appearance of PolyJet printed parts are investigated; two finish types (glossy and matte) and four material colors (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black) are considered. The results suggest that the main effects of finish type and its interactions with material color are significant. Especially, the effects of finish type when material color is black are more significant among the material colors. These results would be valuable to users of the full-color PolyJet 3D printer.

  • Experimental Investigation of Stratasys J750 PolyJet Printer: Effects of Orientation and Layer Thickness on Mechanical Properties
    Volume 1: Additive Manufacturing; Manufacturing Equipment and Systems; Bio and Sustainable Manufacturing, 2019
    Co-Authors: Abhinav Bhardwaj, Chin-cheng Shih, Li Zeng
    Abstract:

    Abstract The J750 PolyJet printer is the newest model of full-color, multi-material 3D printer from Stratasys. Currently, limited information is available about the effects of control factors on mechanical properties such as elastic modulus, ultimate tensile strength, and elongation. In this study, the effects of two control factors, orientation and layer thickness, on mechanical properties of samples printed by the Stratasys J750 printer are investigated. The results show that orientation significantly affects mechanical properties. Specifically, samples printed with its axial direction parallel to the direction of printing have the highest elastic modulus, and elongation, whereas samples printed with its axial direction perpendicular to the direction of printing have the highest ultimate tensile strength. Also, layer thickness makes a significant difference for mechanical properties, and larger layer thickness leads to higher ultimate tensile strength and elongation. These results would be valuable to researchers and practitioners who use J750.

  • Experimental Investigation of Stratasys J750 PolyJet Printer: Effects of Finish Type and Shore Hardness on Dimensional Accuracy
    Volume 2: Processes; Materials, 2019
    Co-Authors: Ketan Thakare, Li Zeng
    Abstract:

    Abstract The J750 PolyJet printer is the newest model of full-color and multi-material 3D printer from Stratasys. Currently, limited information is available about the effects of control factors on dimensional accuracy of parts printed by this printer. In this study, the effects of two control factors, finish type and Shore hardness, on dimensional accuracy are investigated. The results suggest that both control factors significantly affect dimensional accuracy. Specifically, samples printed with glossy finish exhibit more accurate dimensions than those with matte finish, and larger Shore hardness value leads to better dimensional accuracy. These results would be valuable to researchers and practitioners who use the J750 3D printer.

  • Experimental Investigation of Stratasys J750 PolyJet Printer: Effects of Finish Type and Shore Hardness on Surface Roughness
    Volume 2: Processes; Materials, 2019

    Abstract:

    Abstract The J750 PolyJet printer is the newest model of full-color and multi-material 3D printer from Stratasys.

In this study, the effects of two control factors, finish type and Shore hardness, on surface roughness are investigated. The results suggest that both control factors significantly affect surface roughness. Specifically, samples printed with glossy finish have lower surface roughness than those with matte finish, and larger value of Shore hardness leads to lower surface roughness. These results would be valuable to researchers and practitioners who use the J750 3D printer.

  • Influence of processing and orientation print effects on the mechanical and thermal behavior of 3D-Printed ULTEM®9085 Material
    Additive Manufacturing, 2017
    Co-Authors: Rafael J Zaldivar, T. Mclouth, D.n. Patel, Katrin Schmitt, David B. Witkin, J. P. Nokes
    Abstract:

    In this paper, we investigate the print orientation effects on the macrostructure, the mechanical and thermal properties, and the strain field behavior of ULTEM®9085 using a Stratasys Fused deposition modeling (FDM) 400 Printer. The tensile strength, failure strain, Poisson's ratio, coefficient of thermal expansion and modulus were all shown to vary significantly depending on the build orientation of identical dogbones. FDM parts ranged in strength from 46 to 85% of strengths attainable from comparable injection-molded parts. The coefficient of variation (CV) increased from 2 to 13% as the primary layer orientation deviated from the primary load direction. CAT scan and SEM were employed to relate the corresponding macrostructure to the mechanical response of the material along the parts’ 3-primary directions, using digital image correlation (DIC). The fracture surfaces of these parts further suggest that 3D FDM materials behave more like laminated composite structures than isotropic cast resins and therefore design allowables should reflect actual part build configurations.

    Abstract:

    Extrusion Freeforming (EFF) and Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) processes are established freeforming techniques capable of fabricating complex shaped ceramic prototypes by the sequential deposition and solidification of green ceramic feedstock, layer by layer until the final part results. The freeforming of ceramic parts was accomplished using a commercially available Stratasys 3D Modeler retrofitted with a high-pressure extrusion head designed by Advanced Ceramics Research, Inc. (ACR). The manufactured objects had good dimensional tolerances, as well as real engineering compositions and microstructures. Ceramic feedstock based on two different silicon nitride powders were developed and successfully used to make prototype parts. Mechanical properties and microstructural characterization of prototype parts were performed.

    Abstract:

    Extrusion freeform fabrication (EFF) and fused deposition of ceramics (FDC) processes are established extrusion-based freeforming techniques capable of fabricating complex shaped monolithic ceramic prototypes by the sequential deposition and solidification of green ceramic feedstock. In these processes, ceramic parts are produced using a commercially available Stratasys 3-D Modeler retrofitted with modified extrusion heads suitable for extruding ceramic materials. The manufactured objects have good dimensional tolerances as well as engineering compositions and microstructures. The process is flexible and can be used for different monolithic ceramic materials such as silicon nitride, alumina, and zirconia.
