[0001] The invention relates to a method for producing a molded part using a water-soluble casting mold as well as a material system for the production thereof.
[0002] Plastic parts that are produced using known injection-molding methods are characterized by high strengths as well as good surface qualities and low production costs. The same applies to components made of cast concrete, gypsum or other hardening materials. However, the production of corresponding casting molds is relatively expensive, since they require a high degree of precision.
[0003] Methods for building objects in layers, for example 3D printing methods, such as rapid prototyping, make it possible to produce objects with a good level of precision quickly and cost-effectively. It would therefore be desirable to use methods of this type to produce casting molds for hardening materials. However, the porosity of the casting mold produced using a layering method has a negative effect on the surface quality as well as on the setting and mold filling behavior of hardening materials.
[0004] The problem of breaking a casting out of the mold has also not been satisfactorily solved up to now.
[0005] DE 691 25 064 T2 describes a method for casting a product in a mold using complex shapes such as undercuts or cavity configurations. In this method, water-soluble casting mold cores made of a particulate material as well as a water-soluble carbohydrate, which may be dissolved with water after casting, are produced. However, the castable materials do not penetrate the mold, since the latter is not porous on the boundary surface.
[0006] DE 195 25 307 A1 discloses a casting core which is produced from a dry substance which is solidified with the aid of a binder. The casting core is dissolved and washed out with the aid of water after a casting is produced. The casting core is produced from dry sand or perlite as well as from disodium phosphate as the water-soluble binder.
[0007] DE 10 2005 019 699 B3 describes a method for producing a three-dimensional object from metal salt particles as a casting mold or casting core. For this purpose, the three-dimensional object is used in a layering method made of particles which comprise monovalent or polyvalent, water-soluble and/or alcohol-soluble metal salts.
[0008] None of the cited prior-art documents discloses or suggests the present invention.
[0009] A crucial disadvantage in using casting molds produced using a powder bed-based layering method is the porosity thereof, which results from the use of a powder material. This porosity in an obstacle to the production of exact and dimensionally accurate castings from hydraulically setting materials.
[0010] Another disadvantage of known methods is the ability [sic; disability] to easily and completely separate the molds needed for the casting process from the molded part to be produced. Moreover, absorbent components according to the prior art are not suitable for processing hydraulically bound casting materials.
[0011] The object of the invention is to provide a method belonging to the technical field mentioned at the outset, which makes it possible to produce a molded part with the aid of a casting mold produced using a layering method, a precise and dimensionally accurate casting as well as a simple breakout of the molded part from the mold being facilitated, or at least for the purpose of reducing or entirely avoiding the disadvantages of the prior art.
[0012] The achievement of the object is defined by the features in claim 1. According to the invention, a water-soluble casting mold is produced in a first step, using a layering method. In particular, the casting mold is preferably produced using a powder bed-based layering method. The surface of the casting mold is sealed with a water-insoluble material in a second step. A casting of the molded part is subsequently produced by filling the casting mold with a free-flowing, hardening material. After the casting solidifies, the casting mold is dissolved with the aid of an aqueous solution, which may be, in particular, heated.
[0013] Due to the sealing with the water-insoluble material, pores which are present in the casting mold may be closed and a possible surface roughness of the casting mold may be smoothed out. As a result, a smooth surface, which facilitates a dimensionally accurate and precise casting, may be produced even in casting molds produced in a powder bed-based layering method. Since the casting mold is made from a water-soluble material, it may be easily and quickly removed from the solidified molded part with the aid of an aqueous solution, it being possible to simultaneously wash off the water-insoluble material used for sealing from the molded part. It was also surprisingly determined that, due to the sealing process, no significant penetration of the surface of the casting mold by the free-flowing, hardening material occurs.
[0014] The invention thus advantageously provides complex casting molds, which may be easily, quickly and cost-effectively produced with the aid of 3D printing. Furthermore, not only is it possible to produce complex casting molds with the aid of the casting molds produced according to the invention, but it is also possible to implement undercuts in the casting, due to the way in which the casting mold may be removed after casting.
[0015] It was surprising that the washing-off step is easy to carry out in this manner and that the casting mold may be completely removed. Due to the method according to the invention, the component may thus be quickly and completely removed in a cost-effective work step, using small amounts of material, energy and time.
[0016] It was furthermore surprising that it was easy to produce the seal and that very good casting results could be achieved. Instead, one would have expected to see a significant penetration of the seal and the casting mold by the casting material and the casting inaccuracies to be anticipated thereby. However, this was not the case in the method steps used in the method according to the invention and with the sealing process selected, and very good casting qualities could be achieved. Therefore, surprisingly good surfaces may be achieved within a wide process window.
[0017] Using the method according to the invention and the special combination of materials, it is now possible to avoid the porosity resulting during 3D printing as well as negative and undesirable inaccuracies for a casting. Unexpectedly, very high surface qualities may be achieved with the aid of the method according to the invention, which facilitate a high accuracy in the casting step.
[0018] A "water-soluble material" within the meaning of this application is understood to be a material which dissolves completely in the presence of excess water or aqueous solution. Excess is understood to mean that the volume of the water or the aqueous solution is at least equal to or greater than the volume of the material to be dissolved. In particular, the solubility of the water-soluble material is greater than 1 g per liter.
[0019] The casting has at least one negative impression of the outer shape of the molded part to be produced. The casting mold produced using the layering method preferably also includes a core which forms an inner shape or a cavity within the molded part to be produced. In particular, the casting mold according to the invention has complex geometric shapes, such as undercuts.
[0020] All layering methods known from the prior art may be used as the layering method, for example fused deposition modeling. In this method, the water-soluble material is applied in layers by means of an extruder nozzle which is movable in space. However, a powder bed-based layering method is particularly preferably used, in which a particulate material is applied in thin layers onto a platform, and a computer-controlled print head selectively prints areas with a binder on the basis of a digital data record for the purpose of bonding these areas. The excess particulate material which was not bonded at the end of the method may subsequently be removed from the bonded material and, e.g., reused.
[0021] In principle all materials known from the prior art for 3D printing may be used as particulate material, e.g., sand, gypsum, thermoplastics as well as metal, mineral, silicate or ceramic powders. The term "particulate material" used within the scope of this application includes both granular materials and fiber materials, such as cellulose fibers, wood fibers, grass fibers, etc. A water-soluble binder is used as the binder, such as at least a polysaccharide, a protein, a salt, a silicate, a tannin, polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone or a mixture thereof.
[0022] The casting mold is preferably cleaned before sealing the surface with the aid of the water-insoluble material. Moreover, the surface of the casting mold may also be mechanically processed, e.g., by grinding, prior to sealing.
[0023] "Water-insoluble material" within the meaning of the present application is understood to be a material which has no or only a very slight solubility in water, e.g., less than 1 g per liter. To avoid possible deformations of molded parts produced from a hardening material having a low glass transition temperature when dissolving the casting mold with hot water, very low-melt waxes or fats may be used, in particular.
[0024] "Hardening material" in the sense of the present application is understood to be a material which transitions from a free-flowing state to a hardened state by means of a chemical reaction. It is preferably a material in which a polymerization reaction takes place, in particular by means of polycondensation, polyaddition or ionic polymerization. In particular, the hardening material preferably comprises a hydraulically setting material, i.e., a material that has hydroscopic characteristics and stores water as water of crystallization in a crystalline structure, the material hardening due to the formation of a crystalline structure.
[0025] The material preferably includes cement-bound materials, zinc phosphate cement, gypsum, calcium sulphate (anhydrite) as well as polyurethanes, epoxy resins, polystyrenes, polyacrylates, polyamides, polyester and/or polyimides as well as biodegradable plastics. It is understood that the hardenable material with which the casting mold is filled comprises the base materials of the hardened material or the monomers of the corresponding polymers. Therefore, for example, [sic; it comprises] an isocyanate as well as a polyol for forming polyurethane. To generate a casting of the molded part, the material is free-flowing, i.e., it has a viscosity which is low enough to allow the casting mold to be filled with the material.
[0026] In principle, all systems are suitable which do not require the removal of a solvent in order to solidify. This includes all two-component plastic systems. In one particularly preferred specific embodiment, a fiberglass reinforcement is introduced into a casting mold, and the casting mold is subsequently filled with two-component casting polyurethane. For materials which demonstrate a strong exothermic reaction during hardening, the casting mold may be additionally cooled from the outside in order to avoid melting the water-insoluble material used to seal the surface of the casting mold.
[0027] "Aqueous solution" within the meaning of the present invention is understood to be solutions which contain water in a volume proportion of more than 50%, preferably more than 75%. Pure water is particularly preferably used as the aqueous solution, in particular distilled water.
[0028] The aqueous solution is particularly preferably heated for dissolving the casting mold, i.e., it has a higher temperature than the typical room temperature of 20° C., e.g., 80° C. In particular, a temperature is selected, which is above the melting temperature of the water-insoluble material used. As a result, the water-insoluble material may be quickly and reliably removed from the casting of the molded part at the same time that the casting mold is dissolved.
[0029] The selection of the material used for the production of the water-soluble casting mold as well as the selection of the water-insoluble material preferably take place in such a way that these materials may be easily separated from the aqueous solution after the casting mold has been dissolved and reused individually. For example, the water-insoluble material may be crystallized out after the aqueous solution has cooled, and the water-soluble material of the casting mold may be filtered out of the aqueous solution.
[0030] The casting mold is preferably produced in a 3D printing process. It is particularly preferably produced in a power bed-based 3D printing process.
[0031] The surface of the casting mold is preferably sealed with the water-insoluble material by immersion in a bath, by spraying it on and/or by brushing it on. The water-insoluble material is preferably liquefied prior to sealing by heating it above the melting temperature. Alternatively, the water-insoluble material may also be dissolved with the aid of a volatile, organic solvent and be applied to the surface of the casting mold as an organic solution, a layer of the water-insoluble material remaining on the surface of the casting mold after the solvent has completely evaporated.
[0032] Underpressure or overpressure is preferably applied to the casting mold while it is being filled with the material, and/or it is subjected to a shaking motion or a temperature increase. This makes it possible to ensure that the negative impression of the molded part present in the casting mold is completely filled with the free-flowing, hardening material.
[0033] If a cement-bound material is used, it is possible, in particular, to include reinforcements in the casting. These reinforcements may be designed as wire meshes, fiberglass fabric or comparable structures. However, the cement material must be set to a low viscosity for filling the casting mold. Flow improvement additives as well as spherical aggregates or special sands, known from the prior art, are suitable for this purpose. By additionally introducing hollow glass balls, molded parts may be produced from extremely light-weight cement materials, using the method according to the invention.
[0034] A reinforcement may, but does not have to, take place. Likewise, other fillers may be added to the material, in particular short fibers or nanoparticles, for the purpose of reinforcing the molded part.
[0035] In particular, elastic molded parts may be preferably produced using the method according to the invention. Two-component silicones are particularly suitable for this purpose, due to their comparatively low viscosity.
[0036] The casting mold is preferably dissolved by immersing the casting mold in a bath containing the aqueous solution. The dissolution is preferably accelerated by means of movements of the casting mold within the bath or by a temperature increase and/or by applying ultrasound.
[0037] The casting mold may be actively moved in the bath, e.g., by shifting it back and forth by hand. Alternatively, the bath may be placed on a rocker, or the aqueous solution may be set into motion with the aid of a mixing device. The temperature increase preferably takes place by means of an external heat source onto which the bath is placed or with the aid of an immersion heating system. The application of ultrasound preferably takes place in a commercially available ultrasonic bath.
[0038] The dissolution of the casting mold particularly preferably takes place in an autoclave. Due to the overpressure produced in the autoclave and the high heat of the steam, a casting mold according to the invention and the water-insoluble material used for sealing may be quickly removed without residue from the casting of the molded part.
[0039] In particular, a casting polyamide is used as the water-insoluble material. "Casting polyamide" is understood to be a thermoplastic material, which is obtained from caprolactam by ionic polymerization.
[0040] Another object of the present invention is to provide a material system for producing water-soluble casting molds, which are used, in particular, in the method according to the invention. The material system includes at least one water-soluble material for building the casting mold in a layering method as well as at least one water-insoluble material for sealing the surface of the casting mold. The water-soluble material comprises at least one particulate material as well as at least one water-soluble binder.
[0041] This material system may be used to produce a casting mold in the layering method, which may be easily dissolved in an aqueous solution after generating a casting of the molded part to be produced, both the breakout from the mold and the formation of complex shapes, such as undercuts, or a core being simplified thereby.
[0042] The at least one binder preferably comprises an inorganic compound. In particular, the at least one binder preferably comprises sodium and/or potassium silicates. These silicates, which are also known under the name "water glass," are highly water-soluble and are not at all toxic. The at least one binder may also preferably comprise sheet silicates.
[0043] The at least one binder preferably comprises at least one polysaccharide, in particular sucrose or starch, at least one protein, at least one silicate, at least one salt and/or at least one water-soluble polymer, in particular polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetate or polyvinylpyrrolidone or a mixture thereof.
[0044] Polysaccharides may be used as an environmentally compatible and nontoxic binder, in particular by means of recrystallization, e.g., by cooling a previously heated supersaturated solution.
[0045] The water-insoluble material preferably comprises wax, at least one fatty acid, at least one water-insoluble polymer, stearyl alcohol and/or cetyl alcohol or a mixture thereof.
[0046] Suitable waxes are, for example, animal waxes such as beeswax or plant waxes such as carnauba wax. However, a synthetic wax such as paraffin is preferably used, due to the price.
[0047] Another aspect of the present invention relates to a casting mold which is produced from the material system according to the invention. A casting mold of this type may be easily and quickly produced by a layering method, it being possible to produce a precise and dimensionally accurate casting of a molded part by sealing the surface of the casting mold with the water-insoluble material. The casting mold may be subsequently easily and quickly removed by applying an aqueous solution.
[0048] Another aspect of the present invention relates to a molded part which is produced by a method according to the invention.
[0049] Other advantageous specific embodiments and feature combinations of the invention are derived from the following detailed description and the totality of the patent claims.
[0050] In the drawings used to explain the exemplary embodiment:
[0051] FIG. 1 shows a casting mold, which includes a negative impression of a molded part, and a core;
[0052] FIG. 2 shows the layer graduation and porosity of the molded part;
[0053] FIGS. 3a, 3b show two types of sealing;
[0054] FIG. 4 shows an immersion bath, including a casting mold;
[0055] FIG. 5 shows the filling of the casting mold with a hardening material;
[0056] FIG. 6 shows a first specific embodiment of a bath for dissolving the casting mold;
[0057] FIG. 7 shows a second specific embodiment of a bath for dissolving the casting mold;
[0058] FIG. 8 shows a third specific embodiment of a bath for dissolving the casting mold; and
[0059] FIG. 9 shows an atomizing chamber for dissolving the casting mold.
[0060] In principle, identical parts are provided with identical reference numerals in the figures.
[0061] FIG. 1 shows water-soluble casting mold 1, which is used in a specific embodiment of the method according to the invention. Casting mold 1 has a negative impression 3 of the outer shape of the molded part to be produced. A core 4, which is disposed within negative impression 3, is also shown in the exemplary embodiment illustrated. Casting mold 1 has a filling opening 2 for the purpose of filling casting mold 1 with a hardening material. Additive layering methods may be used to produce molds 1 and cores 4. Due to the extraordinary degree of freedom in selecting the particulate material, a 3D printing method is particularly preferably used.
[0062] Based on a sectional view, FIG. 2 shows an example of layer structure 5 as well as resulting porosity 6 of a casting mold 1 produced with the aid of a powder bed-based layering method. In the 3D printing method used, a coater applies particulate material or a mixture of particulate material and binder in layers onto a building platform, each layer 5 being precisely leveled. A binder or a liquid that activates the binder is subsequently applied with the aid of an ink-jet print head. This application corresponds to a sectional view of the mold to be produced. Current layer 5 is lowered, and the cycle begins all over again with a new coating. The cycle repeats until the totality of the sectional views results in the desired casting mold 1. Following a certain rest time, casting mold 1 may be removed, and the unbound particulate material may be cleaned therefrom. A drying step or a heat treatment may be subsequently carried out for solidification purposes. This step must be set in such a way that the water solubility of casting mold 1 is not lost.
[0063] Two ways to seal the surface of a casting mold 1 using a water-insoluble material are shown in FIGS. 3a and 3b. FIG. 3a shows a superficial seal, the water-insoluble material having formed a sealing layer 9 on the surface of casting mold 1. Pores 8 between individual particles 7, which form an open-pore network, are apparent beneath sealing surface 9. Sealing surface 9 prevents the hardening material from entering pores 8 when casting mold 1 is filled therewith, which would cause the surface properties of the casting produced with the aid of the hardening material to deteriorate. FIG. 3b shows a sealing method, in which water-insoluble material 10 penetrates and thus seals the network of pores 8. The latter sealing method takes place, in particular, when using a water-insoluble material which has a low viscosity. Depending on the viscosity of the water-insoluble material, mixed forms of the two sealing methods in FIGS. 3a and 3b also result.
[0064] FIG. 4 shows a schematic view of an immersion bath 11, which enables a casting mold 1 to be introduced into liquefied, water-insoluble material 12. A seal over the entire surface of casting mold 1 may be achieved relatively quickly by introducing a casting mold 1 into an immersion bath 11 of this type.
[0065] The sealing step is necessary to prevent the casting mold from interacting with the hardening material and to ensure a high surface quality. For example, no water may penetrate the casting mold while it is being filled with concrete, since the loss of water would cause the flowability of the concrete to be lost, and only an unsatisfactory filling of the mold would be achieved thereby. In addition, the seal may help achieve better surface qualities. A chemical reaction between the hardening material and the binder or particulate material of the casting mold may also be prevented.
[0066] FIG. 5 shows the step of filling casting mold 1 with hardening material 13. Hardening material 13 is filled into negative impression 4 in free-flowing form via filling opening 3 of casting mold 1. A vibration 15 may be applied to casting mold 1 with the aid of a suitable device, such as a shaking table.
[0067] The filling of the casting mold may be carried out as a pure gravity casting process. No special precautions need to be taken for this purpose. The hardenable material should have a low viscosity, and the design of the casting mold should allow displaced air to escape through the rising level of the material.
[0068] FIG. 6 shows a molded part 16 after material 13 has been hardened in a bath 17 made of an aqueous solution 18. In illustrated bath 17, aqueous solution 18 is heated to speed up the dissolution of casting mold 1. In the specific embodiment illustrated, particulate material 20 of the dissolved casting mold collects on the bottom of bath 17, while the melted, water-insoluble material forms a layer 19 on the surface of aqueous solution 18. This layer 19 may be subsequently simply skimmed off the surface of aqueous solution 18 and reused, while particulate material 20 may be filtered out of aqueous solution 18.
[0069] FIGS. 7 and 8 show two other preferred specific embodiments of a bath 17 containing an aqueous solution 18. In the specific embodiment illustrated in FIG. 7, molded part 16 is additionally set in motion in aqueous solution 18 with the aid of a grating 21. In the specific embodiment in FIG. 8, molded part 16 is shifted in the aqueous solution with the aid of a gripper 22, which grips molded part 16 or is cast therein.
[0070] Another specific embodiment for dissolving casting mold 1 is shown in FIG. 9. In this specific embodiment, molded part 16 is held within an atomizing chamber 24, hot water being sprayed onto casting mold 1 or onto molded part 16 via multiple spray heads 25. The water collecting on the bottom of atomizing chamber 24 may be subsequently separated from the dissolved material of the casting mold as well as from the water-insoluble material through suitable filters, heated with the aid of a heating element 23 and resprayed onto the casting mold or onto molded part 16 via spray heads 25 with the aid of pumps 26 (26.1, 26.2).
