Mechanical Properties and Economic Analysis of Fused Filament Fabrication Continuous Carbon Fiber Reinforced Composites.

Additive manufacturing of composites offers advantages over metals since composites are lightweight, fatigue and corrosion-resistant, and show high strength and stiffness. This work investigates the tensile and flexural performance of continuous carbon-fiber reinforced (CCF) composites with different guide angles and number of layers. The cost and printing time analyses were also conducted.

Reducing meat consumption in Central Asia through 3D printing of plant-based protein-enhanced alternatives-a mini review.

3D food printing (3DFP) is emerging as a vital innovation in the food industry's pursuit of sustainability. 3DFP has evolved to significantly impact food production, offering the capability to create customized, nutritionally balanced foods. Central Asia has a higher than global average level of meat consumption , which might be influenced by its historical and cultural background of nomadism.

Optimization of Dimensional Accuracy and Surface Roughness of SLA Patterns and SLA-Based IC Components.

Rapid investment casting is a casting process in which the sacrificial patterns are fabricated using additive manufacturing techniques, making the creation of advanced designs possible. One of the popular 3D printing methods applied in rapid investment casting is stereolithography because of its high dimensional precision and surface quality. Printing parameters of the used additive manufacturing method can influence the surface quality and accuracy of the rapid investment cast geometries.
