RESUMO

Extruders are necessary equipment for 3D filament manufacturing, which is considered a clean technology because it has less scrap and can reuse materials, increasing its life cycle. Open source extruders are less expensive than industrial extruders. However, they have little instrumentation, which limits processing analysis and thus the development of new materials, screw design and process control. Therefore, this project aims to develop a low-cost extruder with a high degree of instrumentation for in-situ process analysis. To achieve this, equipment was developed with an integrated circuit board, both with modularity, machine and peripheral control, process stability, and data acquisition. To validate the equipment, processing was done at constant temperature and with flow variation. The data obtained were the temperatures at different points in the barrel, the rotation speed of the extruder motor, the current consumed by the motor and the resistances, and the speed of the extruder motor. Thermal images of the components were obtained during processing, validating the type of material used in the parts manufactured by additive manufacturing. The ABS filament produced was analyzed by flow and surface analysis using a confocal microscope. Higher flow rates had a better surface quality of the filament.

RESUMO

The stretch zone width (SZW) data for 15-5PH steel CTOD specimens fractured at -150°C to + 23°C temperature were measured based on focused images and 3D maps obtained by extended depth-of-field reconstruction from light microscopy (LM) image stacks. This LM-based method, with a larger lateral resolution, seems to be as effective for quantitative analysis of SZW as scanning electron microscopy (SEM) or confocal scanning laser microscopy (CSLM), permitting to clearly identify stretch zone boundaries. Despite the worst sharpness of focused images, a robust linear correlation was established to fracture toughness (K(C) ) and SZW data for the 15-5PH steel tested specimens, measured at their center region. The method is an alternative to evaluate the boundaries of stretched zones, at a lower cost of implementation and training, since topographic data from elevation maps can be associated with reconstructed image, which summarizes the original contrast and brightness information. Finally, the extended depth-of-field method is presented here as a valuable tool for failure analysis, as a cheaper alternative to investigate rough surfaces or fracture, compared to scanning electron or confocal light microscopes.
