M1.01 - High Temperature 3D Printed Masks
3D Printing Hard Masks.
Sponsor: Curtiss-Wright
Student Team: Ian Sporn, Mikhale Johnson, Jared McCash, and Subash Panta
Faculty Advisor: Dr. Austin Talley
The main purpose of this project is to 3D print hard mask for high temperature thermal spraying process (HVOF, Jetkote, Plasma Arc). The company is currently performing this process using a masking tape which is labor intensive and has a high material cost. So, the team is coming up with this idea to design and 3D print mask using high temperature filaments that can go through various cycles of high temperature processes. Overall, this project should accomplish company’s requirements of designing and fabricating hard mask that can sustain high temperature (400-500˚F) for multiple cycles will reduce material costs and labor time.
