Problems solved by technology

[0002] Additive manufacturing methods such as 3D printing have been proposed and widely used for the manufacture of many small-scale items, although difficulties have been encountered when using such methods to manufacture large-scale items such as building panels, whose formation is currently time-consuming and labor-intensive
Likewise, some previously 3D printed items lack sufficient structural strength for use in applications with minimal strength requirements or in applications where appropriate building construction codes are required for engineering projects

Embodiment Construction

[0026] refer to figure 1 , schematically shows an additive manufacturing method for manufacturing objects from composite materials. The method comprises the steps of: (A) providing a support structure against which the composite material will be formed; (B) installing a reinforcement material adjacent to the support structure; and (C) gradually applying a matrix material to the support structure to cover the reinforcement material, The matrix material is applied from a nozzle that is movable relative to the support structure.

[0027] Figure 1-3 Methods of forming objects in different embodiments are schematically shown. exist figure 1 In the example shown, the support structure 12 is provided in the form of a flat surface, and the reinforcing material 14 is installed adjacent to the support structure 12 . The reinforcing material 14 is in the form of a wire mesh. Although shown as a single layer, reinforcement material 14 may be formed as multiple layers. Likewise, the...

Abstract

An additive manufacturing process for the manufacture of a body from composite materials, including the steps of: providing a support structure against which the composite material is to be formed; installing a reinforcing material adjacent the support structure; and progressively applying a matrix material to the support structure to cover the reinforcing material, the matrix material being applied from a nozzle movable relative to the support structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an additive manufacturing method for the manufacture of composite materials. More particularly, but not exclusively, the present invention relates to additive manufacturing methods for the manufacture of reinforced composite building panels, roof or floor trusses and beams, columns and cladding. Background technique [0002] Additive manufacturing methods such as 3D printing have been proposed and widely used for the manufacture of many small-scale items, although difficulties have been encountered when using such methods to manufacture large-scale items such as building panels, whose formation is currently time-consuming and labor-intensive. Likewise, some items previously formed with 3D printing methods lack sufficient structural strength for use in applications with minimal strength requirements or in applications that need to meet the requirements of appropriate building construction codes for engineering projects. ...
