Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and a device for testing an input data set of a generative layer construction device as well as to a generative layer construction device which is suitable for carrying out the layer construction method.
- Generative layer construction processes such as, for example, laser sintering or melting or stereolithography, are outstandingly suitable for the production of components with complex geometries, and in particular also for the production of components which are individually tailored to a particular user or for a specific application.
- the components are thereby produced in layers, that is, the component is formed by stacking of cross sections of the component.
- cross section is formed for cross section and the individual cross sections are connected to the underlying and overlying cross sections.
- CAD model ie, generally a computer-based model
- the design of such a CAD model is usually in the hands of a development engineer who is skilled in the art to which the component is associated and who has a thorough knowledge of the environment of use of the component and the technical characteristics that it is intended to have , In the following, such a person skilled in the art is referred to as "CAD Designer".
- non-generative layer construction method there are also subsequent production steps by means of a generative layer construction process, which can lead to limitations in the design of the model.
- the cleaning of laser sintered parts after the production process is often done by one Blasting process to remove adhering powder on the component.
- the effectiveness of such a cleaning process is dependent on the component geometry. Removal of adhering powder from intricately shaped cavities, for example, can be very difficult and may not be feasible at all by the blasting technique.
- the method according to the invention is a computer-aided method for checking an input data record of a generative layer building apparatus comprising at least the following step:
- An input data set for a generative layer building apparatus essentially comprises a computer-based model of an object to be produced with the generative layer building apparatus.
- the method according to the invention can make use, for example, of a database for the comparison of parameter values in the computer-based model with limit parameter values, in which limit parameter values are stored for a method used in the production of the object, that is to say parameter values that can just be achieved by means of this method.
- a method used in the production of the object can be the generative layer that can be carried out by means of the generative layer construction device
- a method step is considered in particular as a sub-step in the production of the object, if no meaningful use of the object according to the intended use is possible without this method step. If, for example, the object is a jewelery item, then it can be assumed that no meaningful use is possible without a cleaning of the item after the manufacturing process.
- the computer-based model is typically a 3D CAD model of an object to be manufactured.
- the model can also be in STL format or
- At least one parameter value from the computer-based model is used for a comparison with a limit parameter value of a method used in the production of the object.
- This limit parameter value refers to the process stability of the process, i. H. it represents a limit beyond which it can no longer be guaranteed that by means of the method the object to be produced is process-stable, i. without the occurrence of mitirregularticianen, can be produced.
- the method is laminar generative fabrication in a layered fashion of a metal object using a given generative layering device, the following may be considered: for certain dimensions (particularly wall thicknesses or the like) of the metal object, it may change during the manufacturing process due to temperature changes In the metal object, a component distortion occurs, which might have no negative effects on the metal object itself after completion of the manufacturing process. Nevertheless, such a delay can cause the manufacturing process itself to be unstable becomes.
- a coater in a powder-based layer building apparatus when applying a next powder layer the collision-free part of the previously produced partial metal object is no longer run over collision-free, but abuts locally on it. This can cause further distortion or superficial damage to the coater or metal object; in extreme cases, it can lead to the production process being interrupted and even interrupted.
- process-stable production refers to whether a method with respect to the at least one parameter value in the computer-based model reaches its production limits (ie, exceeds or falls short of the respective limit parameter value). In fact, in such a case, there is no guarantee that the planned object can be manufactured safely (ie process-stable) by means of the method.
- the inventive method further comprises the step of outputting information to a user in the event that the result of the comparison is that the parameter value is beyond the extreme value.
- the CAD designer can be provided with immediate information during the creation of a design as to whether the design meets all requirements for process-stable production, which makes time-consuming consultations with AM experts unnecessary.
- the parameter taken into consideration will be one dimension. In this case, checking whether a process stability limit is exceeded is very simple.
- the limit parameter value is preferably an extreme value for the parameter which can be produced by means of the generative layer construction device, in particular a the generative layer construction device process stable produced extreme value for the parameter.
- limit parameter values may also be extreme values for a parameter that can just be produced by means of the generative layer building apparatus, i. in principle, are feasible. If a parameter value from the computer-based model is not feasible in principle, then certainly no process-stable realization of this parameter is possible. In contrast to this, as already mentioned, even if the parameter value can in principle be realized in principle, it is not inevitable that there will also be process-stable manufacturability.
- the generative layer construction device may be a very specific generative layer construction device, which is characterized as follows:
- a very specific generative layer construction device characterized by a serial number, this layer construction device being, for example, specifically optimized,
- a group of generative layer building devices (which may well have come from different manufacturers) that share a common characteristic (e.g., a minimum space size, etc.),
- Generative layer construction devices designed to process a specific group of materials (e.g., plastic or metal, possibly even further)
- Generative layer building devices that are a very specific type of generative Perform layering processes (eg stereolithography devices or SLS (selective laser sintering devices))
- boundary parameter values relating to a particular group of generative layer construction devices are involved, then the comparison of the respective parameter value with a marginal parameter value is checked for devices of this group of generative layer construction devices.
- At least one parameter value from the computer-based model is used for a comparison with a limit parameter value of the particular generative layer building apparatus.
- This limit parameter value relates to the process stability of the particular generative layer building apparatus, i. h, it represents a boundary beyond which it can no longer be guaranteed that this particular generative layer building device is process stable, i.e., stable, for the object to be manufactured. without the occurrence of process irregularities, can produce.
- Limit parameter values predetermined by a generative layer construction method preferably comprise at least a minimum wall thickness, a minimum hole diameter, a minimum blind hole width and / or a maximum blind hole depth, a minimum hole width and / or depth, in particular a minimum slot width and / or depth, a minimum by the generative Schichtbauvorraum producible detail resolution, a minimum step offset extending obliquely to several layers a maximum wall thickness or a user specified by a user parameter, in particular depending on the underlying data to a provided for the production of the object material and / or command parameters and / or wall thicknesses.
- a minimum hole diameter will depend on how strong the heat conduction in the build material used is, such as a beam diameter of a laser beam used for solidification, etc.
- the boundary parameters may depend on the command parameters used for the control of the generative layer building apparatus, for example, by determining the order in which the individual points of an object cross-section are solidified.
- an adaptation of this parameter value is carried out automatically and / or in interaction with a user. This further simplifies the creation of a suitable computer-aided model for the CAD designer.
- the parameter value can be set to the limit parameter value.
- the performance of the generative layer building apparatus is fully exploited. If the limits of manufacturability or process stability are not to be addressed, this can be achieved by correspondingly mitigated limit parameter values.
- the parameter value can be further modified in such a way that a mechanical property of the manufactured object is modified in a predetermined direction. This makes it possible not only to consider given limits of manufacturability of a component, but at the same time also set desired physical properties of the manufactured component, in particular automatically.
- a parameter value can be changed so that the weight of the manufactured object is reduced. This can be done, for example, by thinning struts in a lattice structure or by enlarging cavities or by inserting them into the object or else by normally producing massive areas of the building component with a structure inside.
- the parameter value can be modified so that the stiffness and / or tensile strength and / or elongation at break and / or the transverse contraction number and / or the torsional behavior and / or the fatigue behavior of considered object and / or modified, in particular optimized, is.
- the above procedure makes the design even easier for the CAD designer since the method optimizes important mechanical parameters of a component based on the current design already at the time of the design. As a result, the development period for a component can be reduced.
- the change in the parameter value can be determined on the basis of a finite element simulation of a mechanical property of the object to be produced. In this case, information about the material composition of the component, in particular mechanical and physical parameters of the material, ideally flows into the simulation.
- the limit parameter value may be an extreme value for the parameter that can be produced by means of a second production method other than the first production method, and / or an extreme value that can be processed for the parameter in a method following the first production method.
- the limit parameter values may in this case relate to a specific post-processing device or second production device (for example a mass-produced device), in other words parameter values which can just be processed by means of this post-processing device or produced by this second production device.
- any finishing device or second manufacturing device may denote the following different types of devices:

- the model data input unit 101 in the test apparatus 100 for checking an input data set of a specific generative layer construction device (CAD) model data MD of the component to be produced, which describe at least a portion of the component to be produced (step Sl in Fig. 2).
- the data MD may also include information about the individual layers during the generative manufacturing process. In addition, further information, for example about the materials to be used, may be included.
- the data MD originating from the CAD design system may be the model data - Input unit 101 are supplied either via a network or read via a mobile data carrier in the model data input unit 101. If the test apparatus 100 is part of the CAD design system, the model data input unit 101 can easily access the location of the data within the design system. Optionally, the model data MD can be stored in a memory unit 103b contained in the test apparatus 100. Now parameter values PI...
- Pn in the model data MD are determined by means of the parameter determination unit 102, which correspond to parameters for which limit parameter values GP1 to GPn are predetermined (step S2 in FIG. 2).
- Boundary parameter values GP1 to GPn are extreme values for parameters of the layer-building apparatus that relate to a process-stable production of the object to be manufactured or extreme values for parameters that are used in a method for finishing at least a part of the surface of one by means of generative
- Laminated device manufactured object, z. B. a cleaning process are just editable and / or parameters in the production of the object by another Device as the generative layer building device are just to produce.
- the other device may be an injection molding device used for mass production of the components after first prototypes have been produced by means of the generative layer construction device.
- the set of limit parameter values may include only one limit parameter value PI or a plurality of limit parameter values PI to Pn.
- the parameters assigned to the parameter values are, for example, wall thicknesses, hole diameters or channel diameters, blind hole depths, etc. in the model data MD.
- the corresponding limit parameter values would then be, for example, a minimum wall thickness, a minimum hole diameter or channel diameter, a maximum bag depth, etc.
- parameters and limit parameter values may also relate to parameter-based aspects of a layer construction method which are not associated with a process-stable production of an object stand.
- the determined parameter values PI. Pn are supplied to the comparison unit 103, which performs a comparison of each of the determined parameter values PI to Pn with the associated limit parameter value GP1 to GPn (step S3 in FIG. 2).
- the limit parameter values GP1 to GPn can in this case be stored in a memory unit 103a in the test apparatus 100 or, alternatively, the limit parameter values are supplied to the test apparatus 100 via a network or a mobile data carrier. It should be noted that the memory unit 2 0 103a (as well as the memory unit 103b) does not necessarily have to be part of the comparison unit 103, even if this is illustrated in FIG. 3 in this way.
- step S4 There are several ways to do this in this step:
- a notification unit 104 shown in FIG. 3 can inform a user about one or more limit value overruns. In this case, the user must
- the test apparatus 100 may modify the model data to modify the parameter value (s) that exceeded limits.
- the model data may be modified so that the corresponding parameter values coincide with the respective limit parameter values.
- the modified model data can then be transmitted to the CAD design system via a model data output unit 105 shown in FIG. This can, for example, again be done via a network or a mobile data carrier or by accessing a storage device to which the CAD design system also has access. If the limit parameter values are not exceeded or fallen below, an optional message can be output to a user. In FIG. 2 this would be the optional step S5.
- the method can be terminated with a notification to the user when the limit is exceeded or undershot for the first time, or it can be continued until the entire model data received by the model data input unit 101 has been completely checked. In the latter case, the user would receive information about any limit parameter overruns or underruns that have occurred. Even with an automatic change of the model data MD by the test apparatus, it makes sense to check the entire model data received from the model data input unit 101.
- the method according to the invention can indicate to the CAD designer by means of visual information that there will be a problem in the production.
- the user is also preferably shown the specific position in the model at which the problem will occur. This could be done, for example, by highlighting in a visualization of the already designed model the position at which a production problem will arise.
- the user can then adapt the CAD model. for example, increase the wall thickness at the designated location.
- problems with too thin a wall thickness in the CAD model can result, for example, in a laser melting process, after the melting of the powdery building material in the region of a cross section, a thin wall in the W 201
- Part intersects, in the region of the thin wall powder in the area adjacent to the molten area area connects so strongly with the molten area, thereby increasing the wall thickness and a minimum wall thickness can not be exceeded.
- a similar problem can occur when making a very small hole.
- the hole completely disappear, so that a minimum hole diameter can not be undershot. If the hole is not in the form of a leash, it can (for example in the case of elongated holes) correspondingly not fall below a minimum hole width.
- a minimum depth of hole may be predetermined by the manufacturing process (e.g., by a gener- ous layering device) or a post-processing process.
- the method according to the invention can check whether a detail which can be produced minimally by the generative layer construction device is undershot in the designed model.
- blind holes Another problem is blind holes. Here it must be ensured that after the completion of the manufacturing process, unsolidified building material can be removed from the blind hole again so that it must have a minimum width and / or a maximum depth. In the case of surfaces running diagonally to several layers, there will be a step offset in the case of generative layering processes (staircase character). Here you can
- the information relating to the limit values which can be realized depends on the material used for the production, since different materials, for example, can behave differently during melting and, for example, conduct different heat.
- the parameter limit values are also influenced by the control of the production process or post-processing process, that is, for example, by the control commands or command parameters of a generative layer building apparatus used for the production.
- the laser beam diameter used in a laser melting device plays a role as well as the jet speed, the cooling power, the used layer thickness and possibly even the number of objects to be produced in the installation space.
- the limit parameter values are long-term empirical values, which were determined, for example, on previous similar components.
- a wall thickness originally measured at 100 .mu.m can automatically be set to 150 .mu.m.
- a parameter value that exceeds or falls below a limit parameter value could automatically be set to the limit parameter value.
- the Grenzparameterwert is 150 ⁇
- a 100 ⁇ measured wall automatically set to 150 ⁇ .
- the knowledge of the building material used and of the production parameters used generally also go hand in hand. This makes it possible to simulate its mechanical or physical properties even before the production of the actual component. This, in turn, makes it possible to make adjustments to the model already during the CAD design by which a mechanical or physical property of the component is changed in a desired direction. For example, after a simulation of the component weight, one could modify the model to reduce the weight, for example by reducing wall thicknesses. In the same way, adjustments can be made, for example, to stiffness, tensile strength, tensile elongation at break, transverse contraction number, torsional behavior or fatigue behavior.
- W stiffness, tensile strength, tensile elongation at break, transverse contraction number, torsional behavior or fatigue behavior.
- adaptation of mechanical properties of the part is done automatically by adjusting the model after the CAD designer, at the start of the design, has informed the system which mechanical properties to optimize in which way.
- the method according to the invention can be realized by means of a software which is executed on the CAD system.
- the software can be present as an additional module that interacts with the CAD program.
- the model data may be transmitted over a common interface such as
- the process expedites the process when the software module according to the invention accesses the same model data as the CAD program, in other words, when both on the access same record. This also saves space in particular.
- test device is realized as a plug-in module for a CAD design system, then it is possible, in particular, for a check for possible limit value overruns or undershoots to be continuously made during the preparation of the design.
- the CAD designer can immediately be given feedback.
- the method according to the invention in the background can automatically change parameter values which can not be produced by automatic modification of the design.
- the inventive method can of course also run as software on a stand-alone computer system. For example, after the completion of the design of a computer-aided model of a component before the manufacture of the component, its manufacturability can be checked again.
- the data exchange between the CAD system and the system with the software according to the invention can take place by means of mobile data carriers or via a network.
- an AM expert can then make final adjustments immediately prior to the production of the component in order to avoid any difficulties in the production of the component by means of the generative layer construction device or a production by means of a device other than the generative layer construction device or one of the
- a data exchange with the generative layer building apparatus can also be carried out with the aid of mobile data carriers or a network.
- laser melting LLM (cutting out of films and joining)
- FLM applying a thermoplastic material from a die
- 3D printing mask sintering and stereolithographic processes
- the invention is not limited to the design, manufacture and processing of a single component. If several (for example different) components are produced at the same time, then the method according to the invention can be carried out in the same way with all variants, only that then a check of the manufacturability for several components is carried out simultaneously. According to the invention, the manufacturability of the designed model in a mass production process, which is not a generative layer construction process, can also be checked, for example after initial prototypes of the component have been realized by means of a generative layer construction process.
- An apparatus for producing the component which is based on the same CAD model, which is also the basis of the production by means of a generative layer building apparatus, for example, an injection molding machine, a CNC milling machine, a casting device, an extruding, etc., or even another generative piercing device than that used to make prototypes.
- a generative layer building apparatus for example, an injection molding machine, a CNC milling machine, a casting device, an extruding, etc., or even another generative piercing device than that used to make prototypes.
- the radiopacity of the manufactured component based on a CAD model is checked. This is done before the component is produced by means of a generative layer construction device or the production by means of another device in a series production process. The procedure is explained below with reference to FIGS. 4 to 6:
- the 3D CAD model has to be brought into a format in which the outer surface of the corresponding component is fixed by means of a tessellation, ie an overlapping with partial surfaces, e.g. Polygons such as triangles, squares, pentagons, etc. is described. For example, this is the case in the widely used STL format, where the surface is described by overlapping with contiguous triangles.
- a plurality of individual polygons or patches are selected which are distributed as evenly as possible (but not necessarily) over the surface. The following procedure is now performed for each polygon:
- FIG. 4 shows a section through a part of the surface of a component to be radiated with a selected polygon or surface section 401.
- the center of gravity S of the surface is checked at a defined position on the surface (for example in each of the selected surface sections) whether there is a further surface portion 403 spaced from the surface portion 401 in a direction of the surface normal 402 facing out at this center of gravity. If this is the case, the distance d in the direction of the surface normal 402 between the two surface sections 401, 403 is determined and compared with a limit value (limit parameter value). If the limit value is undershot, it is determined that the irradiability of the initially selected surface portion 401 is not given.
- limit parameter value limit parameter value
- the distance to any further surface portion at a defined position of the surface is not checked in the direction of the surface normal 402, but in the direction of at least one Beam 402 ', which includes an angle ⁇ ( ⁇ 90 °) with the surface normal.
- a distance d ' can also be determined for a plurality of beams 402' which are all within a predetermined angular range around the surface normal 402.
- the size of the angle range to be used in the latter modification is dependent on the material of the component, the blasting agent and other beam parameters. However, in the last-mentioned modification, it is possible to check the radiation in a more complex manner and to individually determine whether or not radiation is present depending on the beam parameters.
- Hardware components or mixtures of hardware and software can be realized.
- the device must then have an input interface through which the CAD model data can be fed and also the limit parameter values can be supplied.
- Interfaces mentioned in the present application do not necessarily have to be designed as hardware components, but can also be realized as software modules, for example if the data fed in or output therefrom can be taken over by other components already realized on the same device or must be passed to another component only by software.
- the interfaces could consist of hardware and software components, such as a standard hardware interface specifically configured by software for the specific application.
- several interfaces can also be combined in a common interface, for example an input-output interface.
