Validating Thermal Compensated Deposition using Computed Aided Manufacturing Software
Abstract
DP Technology Corporation’s flagship product, ESPRIT, is a highly adaptable computer-aided manufacturing system that’s used across industries and continents to create nearly anything. ESPRIT is used to generate toolpath trajectories for traditional subtractive and additive manufacturing (AM) cycles. DP Technology and Oak Ridge National Laboratory have partnered together to improve the generated additive toolpath by means of API simulation. The potential impact of this research is the enhancement of toolpath planning for additive and hybrid manufacturing. Being able to simulate and compensate for various effects such as overheating, and distortion are critical components for the industrial adoption of hybrid manufacturing processes. Industrial applications include the mold & die, automotive, and aerospace industries.
