The Objet PolyJet 3D Printing process provides the ability to print graded materials featuring both stiff and elastomeric polymers. This capability allows for a variety of new design possibilities for additive manufacturing such as living hinges, shock absorbing casings, and integrated gaskets. Such design features typically rely upon the ability of traditional elastomers to experience large and repeated strains without permanent deformation or damage. However, voids and other flaws inherent to…

Investigating the impact of functionally graded materials on fatigue life of material jetted specimens

In order to examine the fatigue life at the multi-material interface, discrete digital-material gradient steps are compared against the true functional gradients created through voxel-level design and the negative effects of material gradient transitions on fatigue life are demonstrated.
