| description |
This document presents initial development of wood-based composites with the
aim to develop an alternative material at low cost for rapid prototyping process. Powder
blends containing wood powder (90-120pm) with commercial ZP102 as a plaster
powder material from ZCorporation were mechanically blended to produce different
composition of (vol. %) 25:70, 5050 and 75:25 respectively. The blended material were
successfully processed on 3D printers (2406) which was used as a rapid prototyping
machine to produce three-dimensional components and followed by post-treatment with
ZMax solution to improve the mechanical properties. The mechanical properties,
dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the build components were evaluated and
the results were compared with the unfilled ZP102 material. The result shows that the
mechanical properties were improved with the increasing of wood powder content to 50
vol. %. However, dimensional accuracy and surface quality were decreased as the wood
content increased. Further work on powder preparation is required in order to fully
realize these performance benefits particularly for surface quality improvement. |
