Study on the fabrication accuracy of ceramic parts by direct

Journal:

Virtual and Physical Prototyping

Summary:

Parameters in the stereolithography, drying, and sintering processes of ceramic components
had significant influences on the fabrication accuracies. Taguchi’s experimental
design method was utilised to investigate the relationships between parameters and the
fabrication accuracies. In the stereolithography process, line-width compensation had a
significant influence on the part’s dimensions. On the contrary, scanning speed had an
insignificant effect. The vacuum-freeze drying method was used to decrease shrinkage
(less than 2.0%) in the drying process. Sintering temperature was the most important
factor in the sintering process. According to analysis of the influence of the ladder effect
on surface roughness, small layer thickness and large inclination angle (more than 308)
were proposed to improve the surface quality of the produced ceramic parts.
