A POWDER PRODUCTION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240342796 titled 'A POWDER PRODUCTION SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation: This patent application pertains to a method for using multiple powders in additive manufacturing, along with a primary material and a secondary material, to create a powder suitable for the process. The invention involves feeding the primary and secondary materials into a plasma torch to obtain the desired powder composition.
- The invention involves using more than one powder suitable for additive manufacturing.
- It includes a primary material that is converted into powder form.
- A secondary material with a different composition content from the primary material is also used.
- The process generates waste gases as byproducts.
- Feeding units are used to supply the primary and secondary materials.
- A plasma torch is utilized to create the powder from the fed materials.
- A powder composition meter acquires data on the composition content of the resulting powder.
Potential Applications: 1. Additive manufacturing processes in various industries such as aerospace, automotive, and healthcare. 2. Customized production of parts and components with specific material compositions. 3. Research and development for new materials and alloys.
Problems Solved: 1. Efficient utilization of multiple powders in additive manufacturing. 2. Controlled composition of powders for specific applications. 3. Reduction of waste gases generated during the manufacturing process.
Benefits: 1. Enhanced flexibility in material selection for additive manufacturing. 2. Improved quality and consistency of produced parts. 3. Environmentally friendly approach with waste gas management.
Commercial Applications: The technology can be applied in industries requiring precise control over material composition in additive manufacturing processes, leading to higher quality products and reduced waste.
Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the plasma torch facilitate the creation of the desired powder composition? 2. What are the advantages of using multiple powders in additive manufacturing compared to a single powder approach?
Original Abstract Submitted
this invention relates to more than one powder (t) suitable for use in a powder bed additive manufacturing method in a user-predetermined amount, a primary material (m) suitable to be brought into powder (t) form and having a user-predetermined composition content, a secondary material (n) with a composition content that is almost entirely different from that of the primary material (m), more than one waste gas (g) that is released when the primary material (m) and the secondary material (n) are brought into a powder (t) form and that is a waste product, at least one feeding unit () enabling the primary material (m) and the secondary material (n) to be fed, a first transmission line () into which the primary material (m) and the secondary material (n) are fed by means of the feeding unit (), at least one plasma torch () enabling a powder (t) to be obtained from the primary material (m) and the secondary material (n) fed therein by means of the first transmission line () using a plasma atomization method, at least one powder composition meter () acquiring the composition content data of the powder (t).
