Popis: |
The ICA research group is currently working on a novel Rapid Prototyping technology called Thick Layered Object Manufacturing (TLOM). The aim is to develop a technique capable of producing large concept models, built up from thick layers with freeform front faces. This technique produces layers that fit together with at least C1 continuity in the direction of layer building. A flexible cutting tool was conceptualised that is able to produce thick layers with smooth free-form faces. Important issues are controlling the shape of the flexible blade, calculation of the tool positions and tool path, and finding the process parameters for various materials and shapes to be used. |
