3D technologies in the nuclear industry

In high-tech industries, which include the nuclear industry, 3D technologies are indispensable for creating unique products and increasing competitiveness.

The 3D printer will become an unparalleled solution for the manufacture of products of complex geometry, such as equipment elements and spare parts for nuclear power plants, parts of fuel assemblies, automation elements of the reactor emergency protection system and nuclear fuel refueling equipment. nine0003

3D scanning and 3D modeling are useful for reverse engineering and geometry control of products, as well as for measuring large objects, for example, the circuit of a nuclear power plant reactor.

Created a 3D printer for fast and seamless printing using light

Today, there are many different 3D printers, but their developers have not yet been able to solve their main drawback. The fact is that most of them apply material layer by layer, which leaves ugly seams on the printed object. It seems that a group of researchers from the University of California at Berkeley found a solution - they proposed to print the entire object at once, in a method reminiscent of the work of a CT MRI scanner. nine0028

The printer that prints in this unusual way is called the Replicator. It is named after a fantastic device from the Star Trek series that prints objects, food and anything from almost nothing. At the very beginning of the printing process, he examines a 3D computer model and creates many 2D photographs from all sides. The researchers then turn on a conventional projector and project light images onto the surface of a rotating flask filled with a special resin.

This resin is called acrylate, and is composed of liquid polymers, dissolved oxygen, and photosensitive molecules. The light emitted by the projector activates sensitive molecules, which subsequently deplete oxygen in certain areas of the resin. Molecular bonds are formed in the liquid polymer and it turns into a solid. The remaining liquid resin is drained and can be used for subsequent printing of items. nine0003

At the moment, the Replicator can only print small figures - the size of the figure printed on the video of the Thinker is only 1 cm. But the technology prints the entire object at once, so seams do not form on its surface. The technology even allows you to print on top of other solid objects - for example, you can print a screwdriver handle this way.

According to senior author Hayden Taylor, their technology will be useful for printing medical prostheses and even clothing items. nine0003
