  • Composite material manufacturing by 3D printing and vacuum resin infusion [Elektronski vir]
    Bešić, Edo ...
    Additive manufacturing technologies, popularly known as 3D printing, are used to quickly create objects with complicated shapes. One of the technologies is called Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) and ... operates by adding layers of filament atop of one another to create objects. Vacuum infusion is a technology used in the creation of composite materials that creates vacuum in the object in order to draw the liquid thermoset into it. The article explores the advantages and the viability of combining the two technologies to create a composite object that has a shape defined by FDM printed PLA structure and is reinforced with epoxy resin that is applied with the process of vacuum infusion.
