Abstract

Abstract

This research investigated the feasibility of thermoplastic 3D printing on inflatable membranes. Five experiments were performed in an iterative process through design and manufacture (1), computational simulation and 3D scanning (2), and robotic fabrication on the pneumatic formwork (3). These experiments ranged from small to large-scale 3D printing. Experiment 1 demonstrated the small-scale feasibility of the process and the need to integrate an air-pressure control loop. Experiment 2 investigated the technique transfer from small to large-scale. Experiment 3 analyzed the deviation and shape accuracy of the inflatable membrane. Experiment 4 identified the required fabrication settings and compatibility between the membrane and the 3D printing material. Finally, Experiment 5 demonstrated the design and fabrication potential of large-scale 3D printed elements on pneumatic formworks. The results proved high potential for building freeform design elements for architectural applications on pneumatic formworks.

PneuPrint:充气设备上的3D打印
摘要本研究探讨了在充气膜上进行热塑性3D打印的可行性。通过设计和制造(1)、计算模拟和3D扫描(2)以及气动模板上的机器人制造(3),在迭代过程中进行了五个实验。这些实验范围从小型到大型3D打印。实验1证明了该工艺的小规模可行性以及集成气压控制回路的必要性。实验2研究了从小型到大型的技术转移。实验3分析了充气膜的偏差和形状精度。实验4确定了所需的制造设置以及膜和3D打印材料之间的兼容性。最后,实验5展示了大型3D打印元件在气动模板上的设计和制造潜力。结果证明,在气动模板上构建用于建筑应用的自由形式设计元素具有很高的潜力。
