10 results about "Selective laser sintering" patented technology

Selective laser sintering (SLS) is an additive manufacturing (AM) technique that uses a laser as the power source to sinter powdered material (typically nylon or polyamide), aiming the laser automatically at points in space defined by a 3D model, binding the material together to create a solid structure. It is similar to Selective Laser Melting (SLM); the two are instantiations of the same concept but differ in technical details. Selective laser melting (SLM) uses a comparable concept, but in SLM the material is fully melted rather than sintered, allowing different properties (crystal structure, porosity, and so on). SLS (as well as the other mentioned AM techniques) is a relatively new technology that so far has mainly been used for rapid prototyping and for low-volume production of component parts. Production roles are expanding as the commercialization of AM technology improves.

A tunable gradient coiled sound barrier structure and method based on 3D printing

PendingCN122280092AEfficient sound absorption and insulationAdapt to the double peak characteristics of traffic noiseEnvironmental noiseSelective laser sintering
This invention provides a tunable gradient-curved sound barrier structure and method based on 3D printing, belonging to the field of environmental noise control technology. The sound barrier unit is fabricated using an integrated molding process. Its core lies in the internal construction of a folded, curled topological skeleton with a gradient distribution along the sound wave propagation direction. This skeleton extends vertically to form a three-dimensional solid. The geometry and spacing of the internal folded channels can be parametrically adjusted to achieve precise matching with the target noise spectrum characteristics. In terms of manufacturing process and materials, this invention employs selective laser sintering technology, using modified microporous nylon composite material as raw material. For highway traffic noise scenarios, this structure effectively extends the sound wave propagation path and induces sound energy dissipation by utilizing gradient-changing folded channels, achieving efficient insertion loss in the two energy-concentrated frequency bands of 315-500Hz and 800-1250Hz. Simultaneously, combined with the micropores and high damping characteristics of the material, it effectively suppresses the coincidence effect.
