Abstract Scope |
Complex ceramic architectures, such as honeycombs, are of great interest in the world of Additive Manufacturing (AM). However, design limitations and guidelines for manufacturing these with AM have not yet been established. In this work, we compare previously proposed geometry limitations for polymer Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) to ceramic geometries produced using indirect SLS. We focus on a small subset of shapes which are simple to produce and measure. We study the previously proposed geometry limitations for polymer SLS, and show that the these limitations for polymer SLS provide a good starting place for the design and manufacture of ceramic geometries using indirect SLS. |
