General information
The project refers to the 3D printing of porosity-controlled metal objects by means of 3D printing technology called Binder Jetting.
The innovative aspects of this research project are the development of material production technology via Additive Manufacturing, specifically Binder Jetting, which also enables the production of porosity-controlled metal objects.
The sectors concerned are the luxury, biomedical and production of electrodes with higher efficiency.
The benefits of this technique compared to existing technologies such as metal injection moulding are:
- possibility of realising a wide range of object sizes and morphologies
- possibility of mass production of complex shapes with excellent dimensional accuracy.
Mimest is able to offer the market innovative products.
Goals
The main objective is to acquire the technological knowledge and skills to produce nominal density and controlled porosity components of metal parts by means of Additive Manufacturing (3D printing) powder bed technology called BINDER JETTING.
