Manufacturing Platforms/Substrates TRIZ Cases
- Paper Cylinder Treating Plates with Two-Scan Polymer Sintering
Two laser scans on thermoplastic powder form precise, uniform paper-cylinder treating profiles without costly metal powders or curing.
- Silicone Deposition Mixing and Curing for Complex Elastomeric Structures
Multi-source silicone deposition with dynamic mixing, thermal control, and shaped substrates enables smooth curing and complex medical elastomer forms.
- Powder Tank Stirring Mechanism for Free-Flowing 3D Printing Feed
Rotating agitator blades keep powder loose in 3D object manufacturing, preventing compaction and agglomeration for uniform feed.
- 3D-Printed Catheter Jacket for Flexibility and Pushability
A printed jacket over a flexible liner gives catheters and leads localized stiffness for navigation, protection, and component spacing.
- FDM Metal-Particle Deposition for Strong Polymer-to-Metal Adhesion
Molten metal particles in FDM thermoplastic improve bonding to metal parts, creating durable composite structures with stable adhesion.
- Integrated Reservoir Manifold for Additive Manufacturing Connections
A single reservoir manifold combines mechanical, electrical, and fluid links to simplify additive manufacturing setup and improve control reliability.
- Build Orientation Optimization for Low-Distortion Additive Manufacturing
A moment-of-inertia objective function replaces full thermal simulation to find build angles that minimize additive manufacturing distortion faster.
- Rotary Tray Latch Interlock for Safer 3D Printer Access
A latch, lock member, and door sensor keep a 3D printer tray from rotating during part removal or maintenance, reducing operator risk.
