3D Printer<\/h1><\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Currently, the laboratory has six 3D printers, distributed across three different technologies. Three of them use FDM (fused deposition modeling) technology and are responsible for manufacturing most of the parts used in the laboratory, ranging from the production of sensor calibration supports to the manufacture of functional parts applied directly in centrifugal tests.<\/span><\/p>\n

The printing park also includes a composite printer that combines CFR (continuous fiber reinforcement) and FDM technologies, enabling the manufacture of components with high mechanical strength, with performance comparable to that of 6061 aluminum. This performance is achieved by incorporating reinforcing fibers into the structure of the parts, strategically positioned to increase strength and mitigate stress concentrations, based on prior finite element analyses performed in 3D modeling software.<\/p>\n

Finally, the laboratory has a resin printer that integrates LFD (low force display) and SLA (stereolithography) technologies, capable of producing parts with isotropy and excellent mechanical properties, as well as enabling the manufacture of components in flexible and transparent materials, significantly expanding the range of experimental applications.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The integration of three-dimensional modeling (CAD) and 3D printing with centrifuge modeling emerged as a response to a central problem in small centrifuge modeling: the need for compact, highly specialized parts capable of withstanding macro-gravitational conditions, which are rarely available on the market or in traditional manufacturing processes.<\/p>\n

In this context, the combination of these techniques enabled the in-house development and manufacture of parts with specific geometries and performance suited to the test conditions, substantially transforming the preparation of experimental setups. This approach reinvented the laboratory's work dynamics, providing greater agility, flexibility, and autonomy, and making it virtually independent of external manufacturing processes.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
