At AMS we focus on bringing the best technology for the industry to the country, that is why we bring ZETAMIX 3D printing technology in ceramics and metal to Argentine SMEs and companies.
In order for clients and those interested in this type of additive manufacturing to learn more about the entire production process with Zetamix equipment, thisAugust 30 and together with Nanoe engineers, a company that produces equipment and filamentsZetamix, we will carry out afree webinar.
It will be dictated entirely in formatvirtual at 10 A.M.and you can sign up through Google Forms.
What is Zetamix technology?The manufacturing of Zetamix parts is carried out in 3 steps: modeling (printing), debinding and sintering. Once these 3 steps are completed, printed parts benefit from a density of up to 99% for ceramics and between 90 and 95% for metal.
Step by stepThe impressionOur filaments are compatible with most FDM machines. To obtain better results, it is advisable to favor machines equipped with a "direct transmission" system.
So that the ceramic powder can be molded easily, it is mixed with a binder. Once the piece is printed, it is not finished yet, it is "green." In order for it to have the same properties as the industrially manufactured part, it must be deagglomerated and sintered. For zetamakers who do not yet have a printer, we offer a printer (Raise3D Pro2 or Makerbot Replicator+) fully compatible with ZETAMIX filaments.
The disagglomerateDebinding is the process intended to remove the binder. The Zetamix pieces are deagglomerated in an acetone bath at 40ºC. At the end of this step, the mass of the piece will have decreased.
SinteringSintering consists of "cooking" the piece at a very high temperature, between 250 and 1500 ºC. When the part is sintered, it densifies and acquires its final mechanical properties. After this step, the parts have a density of up to 99% for ceramics and 95% for metal. Additionally, the object undergoes a 15 to 20% shrinkage.
FinishOnce the piece is removed from the kiln, it can be polished by hand or through a rotary polishing process for a brighter look. For metal parts, sandblasting can also be used, which gives very good results.
In the seminar you will see all this technology in depth and for FREE!
