The Mathematical Model

Selective laser sintering (SLS) is an additive manufacturing technology that can work with a variety of metal materials, and has been widely employed in many applications. The establishment of a data correlation model through the analysis of temperature field images is a recognized research method to realize the monitoring and quality control of the SLS process. In this paper, the key features of the temperature field in the process are extracted from three levels, and the mathematical model and data structure of the key features are constructed. Feature extraction, dimensional reduction, and parameter optimization are realized based on principal component analysis (PCA) and support vector machine (SVM), and the prediction model is built and optimized. Finally, the feasibility of the proposed algorithms and model is verified by experiments.

Selective Heating

The process of selective laser sintering (SLS) involves selective heating and fusion of powdered material using a moving laser beam. Because of its complicated manufacturing process, physical modeling of the transformation from powder to final product in the SLS process is currently a challenge. Existing simulations of transient temperatures during this process are performed either using finite-element (FE) or discrete-element (DE) methods which are either inaccurate in representing the heat-affected zone (HAZ) or computationally expensive to be practical in large-scale industrial applications. In this work, a new computational model for physical modeling of the transient temperature of the powder bed during the SLS process is developed that combines the FE and the DE methods and accounts for the dynamic changes of particle contact areas in the HAZ. The results show significant improvements in computational efficiency over traditional DE simulations while maintaining the same level of accuracy.

The Relationship

The dimensional accuracy and mechanics properties of parts made by Selective Laser Sintering depend greatly on the sintering process parameters. The influence of process parameters on warping weight of parts sintered by blends of polyamide (PA12) and high density polyethylene (HDPE) was studied. The relationship between the process parameters and the warping height was presented. The surface morphology of the part and uniformity of powder mixed were analyzed by SEM. The optimum parameters of minimum warping height were obtained: preheat temperature 110°C, scan speed 300mm/s, laser power 21W, thickness of single layer 0.2mm.

The Impact

One of the challenges which Laser Sintering faces is the Rapid Manufacturing of plastic parts with good consistent quality. This is due to the fact that plastic powder properties deteriorate during the long periods of time through the LS building and cooling cycles. This paper presents an experimental study of the deterioration or ageing of PA12 powder properties in the LS process. The influences of different grades of recycled PA12 powders are investigated. The main aim of this research is to develop a methodology of controlling the input material properties that will ensure consistent and good quality of the fabricated parts. From the experiment it was found that PA12 powder with high melt flow rate, low melting temperature, low glass transition temperature and low degree of crystallization temperature could improve the sintering process to produce a good Laser Sintering (LS) parts with lower shrinkage rate.
