Excited to share that our latest book chapter, titled 'Investigations on Die-Swell Behaviour in Screw Extrusion-Based Processing of Thermoplastic ABS,' has been published in 'Advances in Pre- and Post-Additive Manufacturing Processes.' DOI: 10.1201/9781003428862. Die-swell, the physical expansion of the extrudate resulting from stress relaxation, is a common phenomenon across extrusion techniques. Through proper selection of geometrical and process parameters, die-swell can be minimized (as low as 6%, as reported in this work). Our findings reveal a positive correlation between screw speed and nozzle diameter with die-swell, while nozzle temperature and length exhibit a negative trend. Additionally, the strain rate and nozzle shear stresses contribute to increased swell behavior. These results emphasize the importance of die-swell characteristics in ensuring dimensional stability in extrusion-based ABS processing.

Let's talk about hybrid manufacturing. One opportunity is combining additive manufacturing and forging to modify local microstructure. In this paper, isothermal forging was used to refine microstructure, reduce process defect severity, and improve mechanical properties for specimens produced by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). The material is AlSi10Mg. The microstructures, process-induced defect populations, and tensile/fatigue properties of both as-deposited and forged materials were quantified and analyzed. Isothermal hot forging was found to induce recrystallisation, modify defect geometry, and increase tensile ductility. This effort was completed by the NSF HAMMER Engineering Research Center?and exemplifies its mission to be the hub for technical, commercial, educational, and standard setting for hybrid autonomous manufacturing, providing effective programs for knowledge creation, deployment and commercial development. https://hammer.osu.edu/
