Ultralight 3D Printed Electrical Machine Windings Featuring Scalability and High Performance (USP 3D) Ghent University
Electrical machines are crucial in numerous sectors, from transportation to manufacturing. The traditional approach to manufacture electrical machine windings, customized for specific requirements, has been marked by high tooling costs, limited scalability, and environmental concerns. Our project introduces a groundbreaking approach, using additive manufacturing to produce Ultralight 3D Printed Electrical Machine Windings. Focusing on 3D ...
C3PO: Optimisation algorithms for 3D irregular cutting & packing problems with real-world constraints KU Leuven
3D Micro Additive Manufacturing KU Leuven
Thermal analyses and characterisation of fused filament fabrication KU Leuven
Fused filament fabrication (FFF) is the most accessible 3D printing or additive manufacturing technology to the general public and professional customers. It has been increasingly used in daily life, as well as primary, secondary and higher education, and industries such as automotive, aerospace and medicine.
FFF employs a thermoplastic filament to fabricate a 3D part in an additive manner, typically strand-by-strand and then ...

Additive Manufacturing KU Leuven
KU Leuven has been active in Additive manufacturing (AM) since 1990. The AM processes that are currently investigated in the MaPS division (Manufacturing Processes and Systems) range from LPBF (Laser Powder Bed Fusion of metal, polymer and ceramic), FFF/FPF (Fused Filament/Pellet Fabrication of metal, polymer and ceramics), SLA (StereoLithography), WAAM (Wire-arc AM), to printing of electronics and biopolymers by the use of an aerosol ...
Tuning Process Parameters and Polymer Powder Formulation for Laser Sintering KU Leuven
Additive Manufacturing (AM), popularly known as 3D printing, is a novel group of technologies to manufacture geometrical complex parts without the need for dedicated tooling. The market of AM technologies and products has seen a consistent growth and expansion into new applications. Laser Sintering (LS) is one of the AM techniques that makes use of a laser to selectively fuse a preheated bed of thermoplastic polymer powder.
