R. BAKER METHOD OF MAKING DECORATIVE ARTICLES Filed Nov. 12, 1920 April 14, 192s. 1,533,300

l WITNESSES: INVENTOR 1/7

ATTORNEY Patented Apr. 14, 1925 UNITED y 1,53 ATENT ELECTRIC MANUFACTURING COMPANY,

A CORPORATION OF PENNSYLVANIA.

\ METHOD OF MAKING DECORATIVE ARTICLES.

Application filed November 12, 1920. Serial No. 423,647..

To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, RALPH BAKER, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of 'Wilkinsburg, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Methods of Making Decorative Articles, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to ornamental arc welding, more especially to utilizing an electric arc, such as is ordinarily employed for electric welding, for the formation of deposits to produce receptacles or containers of ornamental and useful shapes.

I have found that metal derived from a fusible metal electrode by the passage of a current therethrough may be so deposited in superposed layers as to form various articles of an ornamental and useful nature, it being among the objects of my invention to produce such objects of various designs.

Ingrediënten?

• een digitaal bestand als ‘model’

• een grondstof waaruit het object wordt opgebouwd

• een proces (het 3D-printen dus) dat die grondstof transformeert (door middel van een printer)

Additive Manufacturing?

• FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling)

• (Material/Binder) jetting

• SLA (StereoLithography Apparatus = Stereolithografie-apparaat)

• SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) / SLM (Selective Laser Melting)

FDM

Goedkoopste vorm van 3D-printen

Materiaal: filament (rollen die zijn uitgerust met draden kunststof)

Materiaal wordt laag voor laag aangebracht met spuitkop

FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling)

(Material/Binder) jetting

SLA (StereoLithography Apparatus = Stereolithografie-apparaat)

(Material/Binder) jetting

SLA (StereoLithography Apparatus = Stereolithografie-apparaat)

SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) / SLM (Selective Laser Melting)

SLA (stereolithografie)

De oudste (commercieel toegepaste) vorm van 3D-printen

Materiaal: vloeibaar fotopolymeer (meestal hars), dat reageert op energie

Middels het inzetten van licht (led, laser) krijgt het fotopolymeer een vaste vorm

FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling)

(Material/Binder) jetting

SLA (StereoLithography Apparatus = Stereolithografie-apparaat)

SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) / SLM (Selective Laser Melting)

SLS/SLM

Materiaal: fijn poeder (kunststof of metaalpoeder)

Het losse poeder wordt door een laser aan elkaar gesmolten zodat er een solide laag ontstaat

Na de creatie van een laag, zakt het platform en wordt vanuit een poederreservoir een nieuwe laag poeder toegevoegd die op haar beurt weer wordt belicht door de laser
