  • Patent number: 10987755
    Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus for forming a freeform metal structure by wire feed additive manufacturing. In accordance with the method, a holding structure is moved in at least one moving direction, the holding structure holding the metal structure. A metal wire end is fed along an area of deposition on the metal structure in the at least one moving direction. The metal wire end is heated to a melting temperature using a heat source, with the metal wire end as melted being deposited on the metal structure as a metallic build-up material. The metallic build-up material after heating and during the cooling is subjected in the at least one moving direction behind the area of deposition to at least one pulsed magnetic field using a magnetic coil arranged after the heat source, the at least one pulsed magnetic field effecting plastic deformation of the build-up material.

  • Patent number: 10744721
    Abstract: A first aspect of the invention provides a method of joining a part to a composite component, the composite component comprising fibres impregnated with a matrix material, and the part comprising a plurality of projections, the method comprising: inserting the projections into the composite component; and pre-heating the projections before they are inserted into the composite component, so that the projections are at a higher temperature than the composite component as they are inserted into the composite component. The projections locally heat the matrix material of the composite component as they are pushed into the composite component. Increased temperature during insertion is advantageous as the reduced matrix viscosity, due to the increased temperature of the matrix, results in better consolidation of the fibres around the projections and minimises the distortion of the fibres.

  • Patent number: 10676800
    Abstract: A method of additive manufacturing and heat treatment. A substrate is secured to a fixture and an additive manufacturing system is operated to perform a build process by building a part on the substrate secured to the fixture, the part being built by forming a series of layers of metallic material on the substrate, the metallic material melting and solidifying during the build process thereby bonding the part to the substrate and creating thermally induced stress in the part. The part, the substrate and the fixture are moved together from the additive manufacturing system to a heat treatment system, wherein the substrate remains secured to the fixture and the part remains bonded to the substrate as they are moved. The heat treatment system is operated to perform a heat treatment process by heating the part, the substrate and the fixture together thereby relieving the thermally induced stress in the part, the substrate remaining secured to the fixture during the heat treatment process.

  • Publication number: 20190265678
    Abstract: A method of evaluating build orientations for additively manufacturing an object. Multiple data sets are generated from geometry information indicating a geometry of the object. Each data set indicates variation of a respective associated performance indicator over a design space containing multiple possible build orientations. A composite data set is generated by combining the multiple data sets, along with a representation of the composite data set. The representation of the composite data set graphically illustrates variation of the composite data set over the design space. An image is displaying containing the representation of the composite data set. A user input either selects a set of one or more of the possible build orientations or accepts a pre-selected set of one or more of the possible build orientations. A solution is output based on the user input.

  • Publication number: 20180214909
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing an object. A thermoplastic matrix material is melted to transform it into liquid matrix material. The liquid matrix material is fed into a chamber via one or more matrix inlets. A fibre is also fed into the chamber via a fibre inlet. The fibre in the chamber is contacted by the liquid matrix material. A coated fibre is extruded from an extrusion outlet of the chamber onto a substrate, the coated fibre comprising the fibre with a coating of the liquid matrix material, the substrate comprising a previously extruded coated fibre. The fibre moves in and out of the chamber at the same velocity relative to the chamber. The coating fuses with the previously extruded coated fibre and solidifies after it has fused with the previously extruded coated fibre. Relative movement is generated between the extrusion outlet and the substrate as the coated fibre is extruded from the extrusion outlet.
