Argonne News Brief: Engineering Efficiency in Water Purification

Multimedia

Manufacturing experts at Argonne have developed a more efficient way of making resin wafers used to electrochemically purify water. This technology uses automated controls and a semi-continuous process to produce a new wafer every 5 minutes, at least 10 times faster than the production techniques used today. This efficient technology can make it easier for industry to cost-effectively adopt and implement processes for energy efficient water treatment.

Argonne News Brief: Making Sense of Noise

Multimedia

The Argonne Leadership Computing Facility at Argonne National Laboratory helped Joe Nichols, of the University of Minnesota, to create high fidelity simulations of jet turbulence to determine how and where noise is produced. The results may lead to novel engineering designs that reduce noise over commercial flight paths and on aircraft carrier decks.

3D Printed Shelby Cobra

Multimedia Love, Lonnie

ORNL's newly printed 3D Shelby Cobra was showcased at the 2015 NAIAS in Detroit. This "laboratory on wheels" uses the Shelby Cobra design, celebrating the 50th anniversary of this model and honoring the first vehicle to be voted a national monument. The Shelby was printed at the Department of Energy’s Manufacturing Demonstration Facility at ORNL using the BAAM (Big Area Additive Manufacturing) machine and is intended as a “plug-n-play” laboratory on wheels. The Shelby will allow research and development of integrated components to be tested and enhanced in real time, improving the use of sustainable, digital manufacturing solutions in themore » automotive industry.« less

Tour of the World’s Largest 3D Printed Polymer Structure on Display at IBS 2016

Multimedia Green, Johney

ORNL’s Johney Green guides a Periscope tour of the 3D printed house and vehicle demonstration called AMIE (Additive Manufacturing Integrated Energy) during the International Builders’ Show 2016 in Las Vegas. See the world’s largest 3D printed polymer structure – made with carbon fiber reinforced ABS plastic, insulated with next-generation vacuum insulation panels, and outfitted with a micro-kitchen by GE Appliances – that was designed to be powered by a 3D printed utility vehicle using bidirectional wireless power technology.

Infrared Time Lapse of World’s Largest 3D-Printed Object

Multimedia

Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have 3D-printed a large-scale trim tool for a Boeing 777X, the world’s largest twin-engine jet airliner. The additively manufactured tool was printed on the Big Area Additive Manufacturing, or BAAM machine over a 30-hour period. The team used a thermoplastic pellet comprised of 80% ABS plastic and 20% carbon fiber from local material supplier. The tool has proven to decrease time, labor, cost and errors associated with traditional manufacturing techniques and increased energy savings in preliminary testing and will undergo further, long term testing.
