5. Summary 、论文下载
The examples presented above are just a small selection from the very wide range of tooling applications which have already been published by EOSINT M users. Other documented tooling applications include for example vulcanization, wax injection for casting patterns, extrusion, thermofoam moulding, die casting, thixomoulding, sheet metal forming and stamping, glass forging and paper injection moulding. Also many other applications and methods of applying the technology can be considered. With the expansion in recent years from Rapid Tooling into series production tooling and advanced tooling, DMLS has established itself as a very versatile production method to complement traditional methods like CNC machining and EDM. Its ability to produce a wide range of geometries, including extremely intricate forms which are difficult to produce conventionally, rapidly and with very low effort, gives it unique advantages which have been driving the increase in the usage and acceptance of DirectTool.
