Rapid Prototyping in Mechanical Engineering | Classification of Rapid Prototyping.

Classification of Rapid Prototyping These are the following classification that are discussed below further in details- Liquid - Based Rapid Prototyping Solid - Based Rapid Prototyping Powder-Based Rapid Prototyping Extrusion Based Rapid Prototyping Sheet Based Rapid Prototyping Binder Jetting Process 1. Liquid Based Rapid Prototyping: In liquid based Rapid Prototyping, liquid resign is used and solidify layer by layer. For Example - SLA (Stereolithography Apparatus). The Main features of this RP process are High accuracy, smooth surface finish, costly material. 2. Solid Based Rapid Prototyping: In solid based RP solid material (sheet / filament / wire) is used and after cutting layer by layer to produce product. For Example FDM, LOM. The Main features are low cost, easy operation, medium accuracy. 3. Powder Based Rapid Prototyping: In Powder based RP, powder is fused in binder or laser. For Example SLS, SLM, EBM. The Main features are strong parts, metal component possible, industrial...

Automobile engineering in mechanical engineering subject Introduction, definition, classifications

What is Automobile ? An automobile  is a self - propelled vehicle designed for road transportation of people or goods. Definition: A motor vehicle with wheels, powered by an engine (petrol, diesel, or electricity), primarily used for road transport. What is automobile engineering ? Automobile engineering is a branch of engineering that deals with the design, development , manufacturing, testing and maintenance of automobiles. Main Components are Engine, transmission, chassis, wheels & tires, body. Type of automobile: According to based on purpose: Passenger vehicles  Designed to transport people. Ex : - Car, Van, Jeeps, Buses. Goods vehicles Used to carry cargo or goods. Ex : - Trucks, Delivery vans, Tankers. According to fuel type: Petrol vehicles It runs on petrol (gasoline)  It is common in two - wheelers and small cars. Diesel vehicles In these vehicles diesel is used as fuel Diesel engines are used in heavy-duty vehicles like buses, trucks. Electric vehicles (EV)...

Belt Drive in machine design Definition, Types, applications, Advantages & Disadvantages

Image
BELT DRIVE SYSTEM Definition : A mechanism which transmit power from one shaft to another by using Pulley as the movement of continuous flexible belt, called Belt drive. Functions : Belt drive is power transmitting mechanism. Belt is used to transmit power between shafts by friction. It transmit power over considerable distance. It is also called as a flexible drive. It has ability to absorb shock & vibration. Key Points : Design of belt drive depends of selection of belt and corresponding pulley from manufacturing catalogue. In belt drive the belt is an Intermediate link. TYPES OF BELT DRIVE : Fig 1 : Types of belt drive OPEN BELT DRIVE : An open belt drive is that type of belt drive where one pulley top is connected to another pulley top through belt & without crossing in it. In open belt drive both Driver & Driven pulley rotat...

Rapid Prototyping in Mechanical Engineering - Definition, Types & Applications

WHAT IS PROTOTYPE ? A prototype is an approximation of a product or system or its components in some form for a definite purpose in its implementation. A prototype is a vital part of the product development process. In design practice the word prototype is not limited to a physical object only. It can also be used as a verb or an adjective depending on the contact. Prototypes means - A verb to produce a design & An adjective (prototype like PCB). WHAT IS PROTOTYPING? Prototyping is the process of creating prototypes of a product or system in order to test analyze the design before final manufacturing. Prototyping is the process of developing an initial model of a product to check its performance, design & functionality. THREE ASPECTS OF A PROTOTYPE Implementation of prototype : This refers to whether the prototype represents the complete product or only a part, sub assembly or component.  A complete prototype models most of the product's characteristics and is usually full ...
