Abstract Scope |
Functionally Graded Materials are characterized by variation in material composition or density per the required functionality. Inherent ability of various Solidfree Form Fabrication techniques to access bulk volume of part makes it a amenable to fabricating range of functionally graded materials. However, most of the Solid Free Form fabrication follow 2-1/2 additive process. In SFF manufacturing methods the tool path for each layer follows a Zig-zag or similar profile that necessarily is not most optimal path for material delivery. This may led to process inefficiencies. This paper presents a framework based on the maxel representation of materials to enable more efficient and accurate manufacturing of FGMs. |
