| Abstract Scope |
Ceramic On-Demand Extrusion (CODE) is a direct-write additive manufacturing process which minimizes non-uniform drying for parts with large cross-sections. CODE also utilizes self-sealing augers which allow for precise deposition and complex tool path planning. Low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) devices are an electronic packaging technology which provide desirable chemical resistance and temperature stability. Typical LTCC processing involves complex steps which require specialized equipment, such as via punching and filling, patterning, and lamination. Low temperature co-fired ceramics are an attractive application for CODE because it can consolidate many processing steps and allow for more complex structural integration. The current research is focused on the implementation of tool path planning software and materials development to print multilayer co-fired circuits. Software implementations which are specific to circuitry and the feedstock materials will be discussed. The colloidal properties and rheology of CODE feedstocks will also be highlighted.
