ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING FIBER TOWS WITH BINDMENTS AND RELATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS
摘要:
Additive manufacturing fiber tows comprise a bundle of elongate fibers. Bindments, which may include particles, elongated bindment segments, coating segments, and/or encircling bindments are interposed among the plural elongate fibers to provide interstitial regions among the plural elongate fibers and the bindments. Methods of additively manufacturing an article with a configuration comprise dispensing the additive manufacturing fiber tow with bindments in multiple successive courses in the configuration to additively manufacture the article. The methods may include fixing the bindments together to hold the article in the configuration with the interstitial regions among the plural elongate fibers and the bindments. A solidifiable matrix material may be applied to the article, including to the interstitial regions, and the solidifiable matrix material may be solidified to form a finished article.
