Fundamental Fluid Dynamics Challenges in Inkjet Printing

Detlef Lohse

Summary: This review provides an overview of the fluid dynamics of inkjet printing and discusses the main challenges for present and future research. The challenges on the printhead side include the flow inside the printhead, bubble entrainment, meniscus dynamics, wetting phenomena, and jet formation. On the receiving substrate side, challenges include droplet impact, merging, wetting, evaporation, and drying. Optimizing the process and materials as a whole is crucial for achieving efficient inkjet printing.

Investigation of the effect of three-point bending testing parameters on the behavior of 3D printed sand

Walid Fekih Ahmed et al.

Summary: 3D sand mold printing technology enables rapid manufacturing of complex-shaped molds and cores, overcoming traditional casting limitations. The bending behavior of printed sand cores under casting conditions is critical and is affected by testing parameters like span-to-thickness ratio and strain rate. Elastic modulus increases with span-to-thickness ratio, while bending strength is mainly affected by strain rate. Test results provide recommendations for optimal testing parameters.

Effect of 3D-printed sand molds on the soundness of pure copper castings in the vicinity of as-cast surfaces

Ikuzo Goto et al.

Summary: The effects of 3D-printed molds on the soundness of pure copper castings in the vicinity of as-cast surfaces were investigated in this study. The results showed that the mold materials and oxygen content significantly affected the surface quality of the castings and the generation of cavities. Adequate deoxidization of the melt and rapid formation of a solidified shell were found to be the key factors in achieving high-quality castings.

Penetrated surface characteristics of cement - mixed sand in powder bed 3D printing

S-Y Chun et al.

Summary: Vertically penetrating aqueous droplets can affect the quality of green bodies in powder bed 3D printing. Increasing the size of silica sand grains can lead to better penetration resolution and strength. Green bodies made from 70 µm particle size sand show relatively high strength and surface resolution even at 5% cement content, indicating that strength and resolution are dependent on the penetration pattern.
