In the scope of this study, an alternative automated method to the conventional design and fabrication pipeline of 3D printers is developed by using an integrated CAD/CAE/CAM approach. It increases the load carrying capacity of the parts by constructing heterogeneous infill structures. Traditional CAM software of Additive Manufacturing machinery starts with a design model in STL file format which only includes data about the outer boundary in the triangular mesh form. Depending on the given infill percentage, the algorithm running behind constructs the interior of the artifact by using homogeneous infill structures. As opposed to the current CAM software, the proposed method provides a way to construct heterogeneous infill structures with respect to the Von Misses stress field results obtained from a finite element analysis. Throughout the work, Rhinoceros3D is used for the design of the parts along with Grasshopper3D, an algorithmic design tool for Rhinoceros3D. In addition, finite element analyses are performed using Karamba3D, a plug-in for Grasshopper3D. According to the results of the tensile tests, the method offers an improvement of load carrying capacity about 50% compared to traditional slicing algorithms of 3D printing.

A MATLAB toolbox for finite element analysis of structures
Kandemir, Volkan; Oral, Süha; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2014)
In this study, an open source program for structural analysis was developed in MATLAB programming environment. Program was organized in object oriented manner by four new developed classes. Moreover, a graphical user interface for the end users was created. Furthermore, eight kinds of element including Plane Truss, Space Truss, Plane Frame, Space Frame, Linear Triangular, Bilinear Quadratic, Linear Tetrahedral and 3 Node Shell elements are ready to use. Elements were qualified by comparing the results obtai...
AN ADAPTIVE INCLINED 3D PRINTER FOR MINIMUM SUPPORT STRUCTURE GENERATION IN FUSED FILAMENT FABRICATION PROCESS
Doğan, Hakan; Yaman, Ulaş; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2022-11-24)
After the expiration of the patent on the Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) type of additive manufacturing method, people have started various technological companies to improve the process and its fundamental equipment. One of these advancements was on the slicing plane orientation of the FFF 3D printers. Instead of having the conventional horizontal slicing planes, few companies developed similar 3D printers capable of extruding material at a fixed angle of inclination. Another great advantage of their con...
A Feature Based Design Software for Parts To Be Machined in a Four-Axis CNC Lathe
Hatipoğlu, Demiralp; Arıkan, Mehmet Ali Sahir; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2005)
A previously developed feature library and algorithm are improved in order to develop a software capable of designing of parts to be manufactured using a four-axis CNC lathe. The developed program is composed of sections which are; part geometry design, process planning, cutting tool and machining parameter selection, part program generation and G-code simulation for verification. The developed program is capable of designing parts which contain axisymetric features for turning and related operations, and n...

A MEMS-based spiral channel dielectrophoretic chromatography system for cytometry applications
Yilmaz, Gurkan; Ciftlik, Ata Tuna; Külah, Haluk (Wiley, 2011-02-01)
In this paper design, fabrication, and evaluation of an easy-to-use and low cost dielectrophoretic quantizer are introduced. The device works with standard tools in a biomedical laboratory: a stereo microscope with CCD camera and a voltage supply. A novel spiral microchannel geometry together with the coaxial electrode configuration is established. The device works with a droplet of sample, eliminating microfluidic connections, and external syringes. The proposed geometry decreases the footprint, therefore ...
