Definitions
- the present invention relates to metal-casting molds made by three-dimensional printing and methods for making the molds.
- three-dimensional printing involves the spreading of a layer of particulate material and then selectively jet-printing a fluid onto that layer to cause selected portions of the particulate layer to bind together. This sequence is repeated for additional layers until the desired part has been constructed.
- the material making up the particulate layer is often referred as the "build material” and the jetted fluid is often referred to as a "binder", or in some cases, an "activator”.
- Post-processing of the three-dimensionally printed part is often required in order to strengthen and/or densify the part.
- Three-dimensional printing has been used in the past for making molds for casting metals.
- the present invention overcomes the difficulties of the prior art by providing methods for making metal casting molds by three-dimensional printing which does not require a complex build material.
- the build material used in the three-dimensional printing of a casting mold or mold component according to the present invention may be any conventional casting sand that has not been treated or combined with another material.
- such a casting sand will be referred to as "untreated.” It is a surprising discovery that untreated casting sand can be used in combination with a polymer-based binder in the three-dimensional printing process to make casting molds and components thereof which are suitable for use in casting metal parts.
- methods comprise the spreading of a layer of an untreated casting sand and then the selective application of a binder onto that layer, the spreading of another layer of untreated casting sand and the selective application of a binder onto that layer, and so on, until the desired metal casting mold or casting mold component part is built.
- built part will be used hereinafter to refer to as-printed the metal casting mold or casting mold component part.
- the built part may subsequently be heated to cure the binder and employed in the casting process to make a metal casting.
- the built parts made in accordance with the present invention are surprisingly strong.
- casting molds and casting mold components comprise casting sand particulates bonded together by a binder.
- FIG. 1 is schematic showing the interior of the mold that was selected to be made as described Example 1.
- FIG. 2 is photograph showing a mold made in accordance with the present invention as described in Example 1.
- FIG. 3 is a photograph showing the pucks and test bars which were made in accordance with the present invention as described in Examples 2 and 3.
- FIG. 4 is a photograph showing a casting A made from a conventional mold and castings B, and C made from the molds described in Example 1 that were made in accordance with the present invention.
- Method embodiments of the present invention employ the three-dimensional printing process to make metal-casting molds (including for centrifugal casting) and components for metal casting molds, e.g. cores, chills, and investment casting patterns.
- Any conventional casting sand in the untreated condition may be used as a build material. Examples of such casting sands include silica sand, fused silica sand, lake sand, bank sand, pit sand, chromite sand, zircon sand, olivine sand, alumina sand, mullite sand, and synthetic sands and combinations thereof.
- the build material may have any particle size that is amenable to three- dimensional printing; however, it is preferred that the average particle size be in the range of about 10 microns to about 1 millimeter, and more preferably in the range of about 20 to about 700 microns.
- Suitable binders include a polymer, carrier, humectant, and, optionally, a surfactant.
- Suitable polymers include polyvinylpryrrolidone (preferably with a K value of between about 10 and about 100), sucrose, fructose, high fructose corn syrup, and polyvinyl alcohol.
- Suitable carriers include water, 2-butoxyethanl, and isopropyl alcohol.
- Suitable humectants include diethylene glycol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, and glycerol.
- Suitable surfactants include 2-methoxyethanol, 2- butoxyethanol, silicone oil, sodium laurel sulfate, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol.
- the amounts of each of the binder components is to be adjusted to provide acceptable three-dimensional printing and printed part characteristics.
- the components that are most sensitive to the jet deposition, i.e. jet printing, conditions are the carrier, surfactant, and humectant so the amounts of these components are chosen to achieve the desired printing behavior.
- the relative amount of carrier is in the range of about 75 to 95 weight percent, the relative amount of the humectant is no more than about 3 weight percent, and the relative amount of surfactant (when used) is no more than about 3 weight percent.
- the relative amount polymer is chosen to provide the amount of bonding required for the build part.
- the relative amount of the polymer is in the range of about 5 to about 20 weight percent.
- a binder and a build material are selected as are a three-dimensional printing apparatus and one or more casting molds or casting mold components to make.
- a printing file suitable for the three-dimensional printing apparatus is acquired for each of the components to be made. If more than one part is to be made at a time, a build file is created in which an arrangement is made of the parts to be built in the build bed.
- the parts are then made layer-by-layer from the untreated build powder and the binder.
- the built part or parts are heated to drive off the remaining carrier and to cure the binder and then removed from the build bed.
- the built parts may then be assembled into a mold set and molten metal may be cast into the mold set.
- a coating such as a wash or a release agent, e.g. boron nitride, a may be applied to the surface of the built part that is to contact the molten metal during casting.
- a coating such as a wash or a release agent, e.g. boron nitride, a may be applied to the surface of the built part that is to contact the molten metal during casting.
- cores made in accordance with some embodiments may be removable from the metal casting by dissolution of the core with the solvent which is the same or similar to the carrier that was used as part of the binder that was used in the three- dimensional printing process to make the mold from which the core was made.
- a trial of an embodiment of the present invention was conducted using a dual pedestal three-dimensional printing apparatus built by The ExOne Company of North Huntingdon, Pennsylvania, US, having a build box size about 19 centimeters inches wide in the build direction, about 19 centimeters wide in the transverse direction, and about 7.6 centimeters deep.
- the build powder was an untreated chromite sand having an average particle size of 500 microns.
- the binder was chosen in which the polymer was polyvinylpryrrolidone K-15, the carrier was 2-methoxyethanol, and the humectant was diethylene glycol. The portion of the polymer in the binder was about 10 weight percent.
- the build layer thickness was about 600 microns.
- the part that was selected was a metal-casting mold and is shown in FIG. 1.
- Two of these molds were built according an embodiment of the present invention.
- One of the build molds is shown in FIG. 2.
- the mold had an internal bottom diameter of about, 18.41 centimeters and an internal depth of about 6.96 centimeters.
- One of the molds was subsequently dip coated with a zircon/alcohol mold wash and then dried at 82 °C for about 5 minutes. Molten WC-9 low alloy steel at approximately 1583 °C was poured into both of the molds and allowed to solidify. The castings were removed from the molds.
- FIG. 4 shows the casting along with a casting which was made using conventional furan-bonded silica molds. Casting A was made in the conventional silica mold. Casting B was made in the inventive mold that was not washed and Casting C was made in the inventive mold that was washed with zircon/alcohol mold wash.
- test pucks were made according to an embodiment of the present invention. These test pucks were about 5.0 centimeters in diameter and 2.54 centimeters tall and are shown in FIG. 3 . These test pucks were used to measure loss of immersion ("LOI") and permeability.
- LOI loss of immersion
- the LOI test measures the loss of weight of when a part is fired by taking the ratio of the weight of the part after firing to the weight of the part before firing. The LOI results for two test pucks that were made in accordance with the present invention were very good at 0.3 % and 0.4 %.
- the permeability test measures the gas flow rate of a part.
- the purpose of the test is to ensure that the part has sufficient permeability to permit outgassing during casting.
- the threshold minimum value for usability is 120.
- Each of two test pucks that were made in accordance with the present invention had permeability test values of 375.
- test bars were made according to an embodiment of the present invention. These test bars were about 17.20 centimeters long, about 2.24 centimeters wide, and about 2.24 centimeters high and are shown in FIG. 3 These test bars were used to measure tensile strength. A minimum tensile strength of 250 Newtons/square centimeter is considered necessary for mold components. Two of the test bars that were made in accordance with the present invention were tested and had tensile strengths of 409 Newtons/square centimeter and 340 Newtons/square centimeters, respectively.
