Abstract

Additive manufacturing by itself provides many benefits, but by combining different materials processing techniques like traditional casting with additive manufacturing to create hybrid processes, custom materials can be tailor-made and mass produced for applications with specific performance needs.

Benefits of Hot Isostatic Pressure/Powdered Metal (HIP/PM) and Additive Manufacturing (AM) To Fabricate Advanced Energy System Components

Technical Report Horton, Nancy ; Sheppard, Roy

Advanced Energy systems require large, complex components produced from materials capable of withstanding severe operating environments (high temperature, pressure, corrosivity). Such parts can be difficult to source, as conventional material processing technologies must be tailored to ensure a safe and cost effective approach to large-scale manufacture of quality structural advanced alloy components that meet the performance specifications of AE systems. (HIP/PM) has shown advantages over other manufacturing methods when working with these materials. For example, using HIP’ing in lieu of casting means significant savings in raw material costs, which for expensive, high-nickel alloys can be considerable for large-scale production. Usemore »« less

Hybridization of Freeze Casting with Additive Manufacturing for Simplified Production of High Performance SOFCs

Technical Report Driscoll, David ; Sofie, Stephen

This report discusses research and development activities undertaken by Glacigen Materials, Inc. and Montana State University during the performance of a DOE Phase I STTR award. The objective of this project was to develop a manufacturing process by hybridizing the existing processes of freeze casting and additive manufacturing to enable facile and inexpensive production of high performance solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). The objective simultaneously addresses two barriers to the commercial implementation of SOFCs. First, the project demonstrates a method which allows SOFCs to be produced at dramatically decreased costs; and second, demonstrates a cell architecture which has the potentialmore »« less
Additive Manufacturing at LANL: Advanced Characterization to Explore the Science of a New Manufacturing Method

Journal Article Carpenter, John S. ; Brown, Donald William ; Clausen, Bjorn ; ... - Stockpile Stewardship Quarterly

Additive manufacturing (AM), or three-dimensional (3D) printing as it is more commonly known, is defined as the process of joining materials and creating objects by melting, sintering, or fusing material in a layer-by-layer fashion coordinated via 3D model data.1 Subtractive, or traditional, manufacturing methodologies often consist of machining/removing material—like a sculptor—or forming material through the application of pressure—like a potter. Conversely, in an AM process, material is added in individual volume elements and built up in a way similar to interlocking building blocks, but with volume elements that are typically the size of a grain of sand. The additive processmore »« less

Additive Manufacturing of Large Scale Heat Exchanger

Technical Report Steinbeck, John W.

In this STTR program, the Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI)/Concurrent Technologies Corporation (CTC) team is developing a hybrid additive manufacturing (AM) process to produce large heat exchanger components out of Inconel® 718 nickel alloy. PSI’s innovation is to implement a hybrid additive/subtractive fabrication protocol to produce large, greater than 10 foot long, heat exchanger components for energy production. There is a growing need in the energy sector for flexible manufacturing of refractory material components which can withstand the harsh environmental conditions encountered in efficient heat transfer cycles. Extreme environment materials, such as nickel super alloys, are leading material candidates for usemore »« less
Hybrid optics for the visible produced by bulk casting of sol-gel glass using diamond-turned molds

Conference Bernacki, B E ; Miller, A C ; Maxey, L C ; ...

Recent combinations of diffractive and refractive functions in the same optical component allow designers additional opportunities to make systems more compact and enhance performance. This paper describes a research program for fabricating hybrid refractive/diffractive components from diamond-turned molds using the bulk casting of sol-gel silica glass. The authors use the complementary dispersive nature of refractive and diffractive optics to render two-color correction in a single hybrid optical element. Since diamond turning has matured as a deterministic manufacturing technology, techniques previously suitable only in the infrared are now being applied to components used at visible wavelengths. Thus, the marriage of diamondmore »« less
