#Ring Wrapping Machine Manufacturer

[nicnacsnonsense]

I had an idea for an understated but beautiful collar for the Leather and Lace AU, but have no skills with which to draw it and share my vision :(

[spineless-lobster]

Alright so I was reading the wikipedia article for the limpet mine because I am Very Normal™ about the antics my favourite characters get up to, and I went down a rabbit hole about this guy who I believe to have somewhat inspired the character of the Captain. (long post warning, TL;DR at the end)

I present to you, Cecil Vandepeer Clarke, the man who helped develop the limpet mine. (the last name Clarke might ring a bell to those who have read There’s A War Going On by Glowinggreeneyes)

Born in 1897, (which could’ve been the Captain’s birth year) he first served in WWI as a second lieutenant. He did quite a few things but the main thing that I want to focus on was his achievements. He was rewarded the Military Cross medal for his part in the battle of Vittorio Veneto in Italy in 1918. If you’ve seen my other infodump post you know that in the Captain’s pilot design, he had the Military Cross (underlined in red) and the Italy Star (underlined in blue) as medals (which later changed). Now, the Italy Star was specifically for WWII but I feel like we can excuse that because of creative licensing and all that. I just think the link between Italy is interesting. The France and Germany Star and the War Medal are part of his canon design, so which ever part of his story that relates to that must’ve made it through the cut which is 👀

Clarke married Dorothy Aileen Kendrick and had three children, which isn’t that important but my brain won’t let go of “a friend of Dorothy” so there’s that.

Clarke developed the limpet mine during WWII with his friend Stuart Macrae. They had to think of a detonation technique (remember, they had to attach the mine to the hull of the ship. You can’t have your frogmen blowing up) they found that an aniseed ball (a type of candy that resembles a gobstopper, only smaller) left by Clarke’s children in his office disintegrated at the perfect rate in water in order to detonate the mine.

While they were testing the limpet mine, they had to make sure it didn’t get damp in any way lest the aniseed ball starts dissolving. So naturally they wrapped it in a condom while not in use.

I initially made this post because the thought of the Captain being all flustered next to Havers while handling a detonator wrapped in a condom was sending me into hysterics but uhhh I got a bit carried away.

The Captain mentions that the limpet mine used suckers to attach to the side of the hull. But in reality they used magnets to attach them to the ship, which was the idea from the start. So tbh I have no idea what he’s going on about.

Now here’s something interesting; Clarke worked on improvements with the limpet mine in a country house called Aston House, which was acquired by the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) in 1939. The mine was being manufactured by the Special Operations Executive (SOE) and the house was handed over to them by the SIS where it was known as Station XII (hm, oddly close to Button House XI don’t you think?) Clarke also developed many other weapons at the house. Aston House is in Stevenage, Hertfordshire which means literally nothing to me but it might mean something to someone else.

While developing the limpet mine Clarke had come up with the idea of an underground tank (which sounds cool as hell) and proposed his idea twice, the first time to the Ministry of Supply (which was rejected) and the second time directly to Churchill himself (who essentially said “that’s great, but we’re making one of those already”). Although he was put in charge of the “trenching machine” as he was made assistant director in the Naval Land Section, he grew to hate his job and was called for military service shortly after he left. (Hm, who else absolutely despises the navy? Perhaps our favourite little army man?)

Clarke was later promoted to captain (but acted as a major) and was stationed at Brickendonbury Manor (Station XVII) where he trained SOE agents. There he suffered a bone fracture due to a rough landing during parachute training. The wiki article doesn’t mention where the fracture was but if it was in his knees I might punch a wall.

Clarke was released from the army in November of 1945. He returned to Bedford where he joined the Territorial Army as a captain and served there for six years before being transferred to the Intelligence Corps. Later he ran as like a counsellor or something and was part of the Labour/Liberal Party, but I don’t think that’s very relevant. He retired as a major at the age of 60 and died in 1961. The wiki article doesn’t mention a cause of death (which is just poetic irony at this point) but it does mention that he had a non fatal heart attack. But non fatal means he didn’t die from it so ?????

TL;DR:

- Possibly same birth year?

- Similar(ish) medals

- Developed the limpet mine with a close friend

- Stationed at a country house (twice in the case of Clarke) during WWII

- Hate the navy (though that seems to be common amongst soldiers)

- Fucked up bones

- Worked in intelligence and weapons development

- Prominently known as a captain

- Died under mysterious circumstances apparently

I am leaving out A LOT of other information so there might be more connections that I’m missing. If you wanna learn more about Clarke and the limpet mine I found this article which delves further into the development and it was a very fun read.

I… I need to lie down

[bechdelexam]

It’s 10:55 a.m. on a Thursday in early November, and I’m on the clockless, windowless main floor of Calgary’s Elbow River Casino watching a woman with a wispy grey braid and seafoam-green sleeves play Lamp of Destiny. Her slot machine is a Genie-emblazoned behemoth with two high-definition video screens (“set against a smooth black surface,” says the manufacturer, “to create a cinematic feel”). The woman pushes a button. Lights flash, music plays, reels spin. She pushes it again. And again. And again. Her body is still. Her face glows golden. I move along. Dozens of people are hunched at dozens of other machines: Lucky Buddha, Texas Tea, Strike it Rich, Merlin’s Wand, Lotus Land, Sparkling Nightlife, Lucky Ox, Mighty Cash, Buffalo Gold Revolution, Rakin’ Bacon, Money Link, Rising Fortunes. I push through the music and lights, past the green-felt baccarat tables where balding Asian men fiddle with their chips, past the off-track betting room (Wager on the Sport of Kings!), through Jackpot Junction, a battery of slots beneath a giant locomotive smokestack spewing cartoon coins and bills. None of this is meant for me: I’m not a customer, I’m a volunteer. In five minutes my shift starts in the cage, a locked room with barred windows along the far wall filled with plastic chips and real money, where I’ll be banker and cashier, paying out the table-game players—poker, blackjack, roulette. Instead of spending money, I’ll be funding my 8-year-old daughter’s education. A portion of today’s casino take will go to her school, some $65,000 for field trips, books, cultural shows, an artist in residence, iPads and basketball nets. Countless Albertans know these shifts, having volunteered for schools, community leagues, environmental groups, even churches. (And only Albertans do: no other province allows “charities”—this includes schools’ parent-fundraising-councils—to conduct casino events.) Experience isn’t necessary. Neither is police clearance. The job is just to count money and pay players, and the cage is ringed with surveillance cameras besides. As my shift starts, I’m handed $1.1-million in chips, lined up in trays, and a neat pile of elastic-band-wrapped blue, purple, green, red and brown bricks of cash totalling $350,000, more than I paid for my house. The main rule, I’m told, is to not congratulate customers. I might be handing them $600, but maybe they started with a thousand.

Engineers 3D print the electromagnets at the heart of many electronics - Technology Org

Engineers 3D print the electromagnets at the heart of many electronics - Technology Org

Imagine building an entire dialysis machine using nothing more than a 3D printer.

Caption:MIT researchers modified a multi-material 3D printer so it could produce three-dimensional solenoids in one step by layering ultrathin coils of three different materials. It prints a U.S. quarter-sized solenoid as a spiral by layering material around the soft magnetic core, with thicker conductive layers separated by thin insulating layers. Illustration by the researchers

This could not only reduce costs and eliminate manufacturing waste, but also since this machine could be produced outside a factory, people with limited resources or those who live in remote areas may be able to access this medical device more easily.

While multiple hurdles must be overcome to develop electronic devices that are entirely 3D printed, a team at MIT has taken an important step in this direction by demonstrating fully 3D-printed, three-dimensional solenoids.

Solenoids, electromagnets formed by a coil of wire wrapped around a magnetic core, are a fundamental building block of many electronics, from dialysis machines and respirators to washing machines and dishwashers.

The researchers modified a multimaterial 3D printer so it could print compact, magnetic-cored solenoids in one step. This eliminates defects that might be introduced during post-assembly processes.

This customized printer, which could utilize higher-performing materials than typical commercial printers, enabled the researchers to produce solenoids that could withstand twice as much electric current and generate a magnetic field that was three times larger than other 3D-printed devices.

In addition to making electronics cheaper on Earth, this printing hardware could be particularly useful in space exploration. For example, instead of shipping replacement electronic parts to a base on Mars, which could take years and cost millions of dollars, one could send a signal containing files for the 3D printer, says Luis Fernando Velásquez-García, a principal research scientist in MIT’s Microsystems Technology Laboratories (MTL).

“There is no reason to make capable hardware in only a few centers of manufacturing when the need is global. Instead of trying to ship hardware all over the world, can we empower people in distant places to make it themselves? Additive manufacturing can play a tremendous role in terms of democratizing these technologies,” adds Velásquez-García, the senior author of a new paper on the 3D printed solenoids that appears in the journal Virtual and Physical Prototyping.

He is joined on the paper by lead author Jorge Cañada, an electrical engineering and computer science graduate student; and Hyeonseok Kim, a mechanical engineering graduate student.

Additive advantages

A solenoid generates a magnetic field when an electrical current is passed through it. When someone rings a doorbell, for instance, electric current flows through a solenoid, which generates a magnetic field that moves an iron rod so it strikes a chime.

Integrating solenoids onto electrical circuits manufactured in a clean room poses significant challenges, as they have very different form factors and are made using incompatible processes that require post assembly. Consequently, researchers have investigated making solenoids utilizing many of the same processes that make semiconductor chips. But these techniques limit the size and shape of solenoids, which hampers performance.

With additive manufacturing, one can produce devices that are practically any size and shape. However, this presents its own challenges, since making a solenoid involves coiling thin layers made from multiple materials that may not all be compatible with one machine.

To overcome these challenges, the researchers needed to modify a commercial extrusion 3D printer.

Extrusion printing fabricates objects one layer at a time by squirting material through a nozzle. Typically, a printer uses one type of material feedstock, often spools of filament.

“Some people in the field look down on them because they are simple and don’t have a lot of bells and whistles, but extrusion is one of very few methods that allows you to do multimaterial, monolithic printing,” says Velásquez-García.

This is key, since the solenoids are produced by precisely layering three different materials — a dielectric material that serves as an insulator, a conductive material that forms the electric coil, and a soft magnetic material that makes up the core.

The team selected a printer with four nozzles — one dedicated to each material to prevent cross-contamination. They needed four extruders because they tried two soft magnetic materials, one based on a biodegradable thermoplastic and the other based on nylon.

Printing with pellets

They retrofitted the printer so one nozzle could extrude pellets, rather than filament. The soft magnetic nylon, which is made from a pliable polymer studded with metallic microparticles, is virtually impossible to produce as a filament. Yet this nylon material offers far better performance than filament-based alternatives.

Using the conductive material also posed challenges, since it would start melting and jam the nozzle. The researchers found that adding ventilation to cool the material prevented this. They also built a new spool holder for the conductive filament that was closer to the nozzle, reducing friction that could damage the thin strands.

Even with the team’s modifications, the customized hardware cost about $4,000, so this technique could be employed by others at a lower cost than other approaches, adds Velásquez-García.

The modified hardware prints a U.S. quarter-sized solenoid as a spiral by layering material around the soft magnetic core, with thicker conductive layers separated by thin insulating layers.

Precisely controlling the process is of paramount importance because each material prints at a different temperature. Depositing one on top of another at the wrong time might cause the materials to smear.

Because their machine could print with a more effective soft magnetic material, the solenoids achieved higher performance than other 3D-printed devices.

The printing method enabled them to build a three-dimensional device comprising eight layers, with coils of conductive and insulating material stacked around the core like a spiral staircase. Multiple layers increase the number of coils in the solenoid, which improves the amplification of the magnetic field.

Due to the added precision of the modified printer, they could make solenoids that were about 33 percent smaller than other 3D-printed versions. More coils in a smaller area also boosts amplification.

In the end, their solenoids could produce a magnetic field that was about three times larger than what other 3D-printed devices can achieve.

“We were not the first people to be able to make inductors that are 3D-printed, but we were the first ones to make them three-dimensional, and that greatly amplifies the kinds of values you can generate. And that translates into being able to satisfy a wider range of applications,” he says.

For instance, while these solenoids can’t generate as much magnetic field as those made with traditional fabrication techniques, they could be used as power convertors in small sensors or actuators in soft robots.

Moving forward, the researchers are looking to continue enhancing their performance.

For one, they could try using alternate materials that might have better properties. They are also exploring additional modifications that could more precisely control the temperature at which each material is deposited, reducing defects.

To illustrate OP's point even further:

Most hospital tools are metal, therefore sterilizable. As of yet, there is no reasonable replacement for plastic components that can be either viably recycled or sterilized to be reused. Everything from the casings on an ultrasound wand to the tubing of a IV have no replacement materials.

Hospitals do create a lot of waste, and by design. Disposable masks, gloves, gowns and casings are creating major waste, but it's not waste without purpose. Very specifically, these items must be disposable to control infection possibility and protect both doctor/nurse and patient from the illness, disease and fuid they have to deal with.

Wasteful manufacturing is more of an issue than anything. For example, despite how infamous six-pack rings are, they are less wasteful than Coke's full-package wraps on their six packs. Why use the extra plastic?

Another example? Why are glass containers (a la tupperware) not as easy to find? They use less plastic (only the lid), are microwave (and sometimes oven) safe, are not porous (that discolouration on your plastic containers? Food residue sunk into the plastic), do not disfigure/warp and can be plastic-wrapped in the event something happens to the lid.

And no, the glass versions are not innately more expensive. In my local dollar store, glass containers were right alongside plastic ones for the same price or only slightly more. Oven-safe ones are more expensive, yes, but plastic is never oven-safe, so there you go.

Straws have become a big issue, but it's not their existence that's the problem - it's their overuse. Why could McDonalds not have made a cup with a coffee-esque lid on it? Why did restaurants ever give you straws automatically when you're very much capable of drinking from a glass cup?

There's a lot we rely on in the modern world that needs plastic. Cable shealths, electronics casings, glues, medical equipment, tape - it all needs to exist. The existence of non-recyclable plastics are an issue, but not one we can fix by abandoning them, only finding alternatives or better materials from which to produce degradable or recyclable plastics.

Electricity consumption is a matter of perspective. Do electronics like phones, tvs, consoles, laptops and tablets draw lots of energy? Yes. Do you know what draws considerably more? ChatGPT. And it uses an insane amount of water for coolant. What use does that fucking thing have? Why are there LED billboards? Why are stores allowed to leave signage on overnight? Or have parking lot lights that don't have solar panels?

The thing is, right, that consumer electronics have to factor in how costly running them will be on the consumer end. Why do you think Hummer failed? Because it cost too much in gas to run the damn thing. Consumer electronics need to be reasonably efficient to be viable, but manufacturers and corporations just write those expenses off on their taxes. They can disappear losses with subsides that even upper middle class people cannot afford.

Another point of perspective: in the early 2000s ahead of an energy crisis, the Canadian government went on an energy consumption reduction campaign. In schools, in ads, over the radio - the government pushed more responsible, economic energy use. Simple shit, like turning off lights, lowering temperatures in your home by a degree or two, using power bars for electronics/chargers and the EnerGuide rating system applied to large appliance purchases. EnerGuide in particular did a lot, since it forced manufacturers to reveal how efficient their machines were and how much running the machine would cost - this cost was based on an average use expected by the government and balanced against the machine's size.

This was staggeringly successful.

In the wake of the Ukraine invasion, the EU was under direct energy threat from Russia as Russian pipelines supplied up to a quarter of the EU's energy. In a crazy united collective action by the member states, the EU rapidly organized new energy imports from the Near East, Africa, Norway and America, set up targets for new sustainable power generation and underwent a concerted energy reduction campaign. While the renewables campaign has not yet met its targets, the other two campaigns were incredibly successful across the entire EU. The reduction campaign in particular was not only for citizens, but industry too.

And that's not even to mention the emissions drop through COVID - when medical equipment's use skyrocketted and consumption barely flagged, but world-wide emissions decreased by double-digits. Wanna guess why? Industry had to slow or stop. People were driving less cars to commute, sure, but everyday driving was still happening and shipping rates increased with the uptick in online ordering.

Consumption is part of the issue, no doubt. But consumption can only be mitigated by what's available to purchase. Concerted reduction efforts have to be imposed from the top down - government regulation of industry and it's production methods. Private industry is only interested in short term profits by any means and will sacrifice lives, sustainable economies and the environment to do it.

Benefits of Slip Rings in Motors

Slip rings in motors The most well-known advantage of a slip ring is its capacity to solve wire wrapping issues by removing wires from around rotary machine joints while still ensuring excellent contact between stationary and rotary parts of a machine.

Fabcouniversal is a carbon brush manufacturer in Delhi NCR. However, due to their adaptability, slip rings are also effective at increasing resistance to AC motors, hence reducing the speed of wind turbine blades. Even equipment that need a gradual and smooth start, like excavators or other large gear, might benefit from their use.

Slip rings are renowned for having a large load capacity while nevertheless starting slowly and precisely.

They can transport signal, power, and data in addition to other media thanks to their wide variety of sorts. There are also more slip ring kinds that may carry fluids like ethernet, fibre optic, gas, oil, and more.

How do stainless steel flanges connect and seal?

Stainless steel is one of the strongest construction metal materials, with anti-corrosion, anti-rust, wear-resistant and other characteristics.

Stainless steel flanges are highly resistant to corrosion, and chrome-containing stainless steel stamped flanges combine mechanical strength with high elongation, making parts easy to machine and manufacture to meet the needs of architects and structural designers. All metals react with oxygen in the atmosphere to form oxide films on their surfaces.

The flange gasket is to achieve the sealing effect of the flange. A gasket is a ring made of a plastically deformable material with a certain strength. Gaskets are usually cut from non-metallic sheets or manufactured to specified dimensions in specialized factories, and materials include asbestos rubber sheets, asbestos sheets, PTFE sheets, polyethylene sheets and thin metal sheets. There are also sheets (tin, stainless steel), which are metal-coated gaskets wrapped in a non-metallic material such as asbestos. According to different pressure levels, flange gaskets also have different materials, ranging from low-pressure asbestos gaskets, high-pressure asbestos gaskets, PTFE gaskets to metal gaskets.

Flange connection is to use flanges to connect the pipes or fittings to be connected, and the joints can be disassembled. The connection method is more inclusive, and can be connected with the pipe fittings by hot melt or bonded. Some pipes and fittings that are not suitable for hot melt or electrofusion connection can be connected by flange connection. For example, ppr pipe, metal pipe and other pipes are not suitable for hot melt connection. Flanged connections are easy to use and can withstand higher pressures. Flange connections are widely used in industrial pipelines.

jealous martin in 188 made the fic machine go brrr

"So, Helen."

"What about her?"

"I don't know. Did you ever, you know, think about her? The original one, I mean."

Jon frowned. "Well, yes. Quite a bit, actually. She did sort of die in front of me, that was a lot to live with."

Martin gripped the straps of his bag a little tighter. "Yeah, but aside from your guilt spiral."

He laughed lightly. "Guilt spiral is a very good way of putting it, I suppose. That was sort of the point. And to answer the question I think you're getting at, yes and no."

"I'm not asking anything. And you know that isn't an answer."

"I know, I'm sorry. To be honest, did I ever think we could've been friends? Yes. I barely knew her, but I still liked her."

"Hmm." Martin stared at the horizon.

Jon looked up at him, a slow smile spreading across his face. Martin was fidgeting with his bag in the same way he had when they had passed through Oliver's domain; not quite nervous, just pent up. He had something he wanted to say.

"Martin..." Jon said slowly.

"Don't you dare ask if I was jealous, you already know I was."

Jon laughed. "That's not what I was going to say, but now that you bring it up..."

Martin groaned frustratedly. "What do you want me say, Jon? You were pulling away from us all, all of your friends, the people that cared about you, and then some stranger comes swanning into the archives and suddenly you're all about trust? What's with that? I was doing so much to keep the archives from falling apart and you're all 'Martin wants to kill me', but when Helen shows up? Then you're all gung-ho and ready to trust again!"

"I know, I know, I'm sorry." Jon took his hand. "I really am. I wasn't in the best place back then, it was bad. Really bad. I should have trusted you."

Martin sighed. "It's okay. It's in the past, it's hardly the worst thing that's ever happened. And you're a terrible liar, so at least now I'll have some warning for when you decide to elope with the nearest avatar. I doubt you'd be able to keep that a secret."

Jon chuckled, leaning bodily against Martin. "I promise I won't run off. To be completely honest with you, I doubt I'm going to meet anyone who even comes close to you."

"You say that now."

"I say that always."

Martin wrapped an arm around Jon's shoulders. "Alright. I'm sorry I got worked up."

"It's fine. So long as you don't make a habit of thinking I'm secretly in love with everyone else."

Martin didn't meet his eyes. He tensed against him slightly, arm going ridged. Jon gazed at him, realisation slowly setting in.

"Martin, how often do you think that?"

Silence.

"Martin-"

"I don't know! I used to think maybe you and Tim were secretly a thing, he was never subtle about flirting with you, but then when he found out I liked you he said 'go get 'em tiger' so that really confused me."

"Tim, Oliver Banks, Helen Richardson." Jon counted off on his fingers. "Anyone else?"

Martin fidgeted. "Tim may have once implied that you and Basira were a thing."

"Basira? Martin, she's-"

"Yeah, well, I didn't know her back then. Or Melanie."

"Melanie as well? Martin, Melanie is the most lesbian lesbian I've ever met." Jon laughed. "And I went to Oxford."

"I thought it was just an aesthetic!"

"She has a nose ring!"

"Plenty of bi or pan girls have nose rings!"

Jon snorted, burying his face in Martin's shoulder. "You're unbelievable."

Martin wrapped both arms around him now, pulling him into a tight embrace. "It's not my fault you're a catch. Anyone would want some."

Jon wriggled out of his grip enough to look him in the face. "I'm a catch? Martin, I'm a habitual insomniac who keeps picking fights with things that leave marks. You're soft and loving and so unfairly handsome. If either of us is a catch, it's you."

"Disagree. You're adorable and smart, you know literally everything, and the scars are actually hot by the way. I'm just," He shrugged. "I'm not that remarkable."

"Remarkable? Martin, you're far beyond that. Do you honestly think I don't see you as the most brilliant man I've ever met?"  

Martin shrugged, looking sheepish. "Well, you're the Archivist. You can see everything, isn't there someone out there who you'd rather be with?"

Jon frowned. "You're asking if, given the option, I would use my all seeing super powers to scour the globe and find my scientific soulmate."

"Sort of?"

"That's not how relationships work. Mutual trust and affection isn't something that can be manufactured. It's born from shared experiences, joint connections, mutual care. Is there, theoretically, someone who's interests align more with my own? Absolutely. Dozens. But I don't want them. I don't know how well any of them would've handled me at my worst, or would've stood up to Prentiss as well as you did, or which of them would've stuck around after I ended the world. Theories and hypotheticals are all well and good but they completely ignore the necessity of actual connection." He brushed a strand of hair away from Martin's face. "I love you. Not because you're here now, but because you've always been here. If you want to be jealous, be jealous of the version of you that sat in document storage and told me that you'd worked out an effective way of removing the worms with a corkscrew. That's the first version that properly made me stop and think."

He finished his tirade and trailed off, awkwardly staring up at Martin.

It was a long minute before Martin spoke again. "Really?"

"What?"

"Document storage, that was the first moment you realised you liked me?" Martin asked, incredulously.

"I realised I trusted you." Jon corrected. "I didn't realise I liked you until shortly before the Unknowing."

"You're unbelievable."

"Suspend your disbelief for a moment and believe one thing for me?"

"What?"

"I love you."

MIT engineers 3D print the electromagnets at the heart of many electronics

MIT engineers 3D print the electromagnets at the heart of many electronics

Imagine being able to build an entire dialysis machine using nothing more than a 3D printer.

This could not only reduce costs and eliminate manufacturing waste, but since this machine could be produced outside a factory, people with limited resources or those who live in remote areas may be able to access this medical device more easily.

While multiple hurdles must be overcome to develop electronic devices that are entirely 3D printed, a team at MIT has taken an important step in this direction by demonstrating fully 3D-printed, three-dimensional solenoids.

Solenoids, electromagnets formed by a coil of wire wrapped around a magnetic core, are a fundamental building block of many electronics, from dialysis machines and respirators to washing machines and dishwashers.

The researchers modified a multimaterial 3D printer so it could print compact, magnetic-cored solenoids in one step. This eliminates defects that might be introduced during post-assembly processes.

This customized printer, which could utilize higher-performing materials than typical commercial printers, enabled the researchers to produce solenoids that could withstand twice as much electric current and generate a magnetic field that was three times larger than other 3D-printed devices.

In addition to making electronics cheaper on Earth, this printing hardware could be particularly useful in space exploration. For example, instead of shipping replacement electronic parts to a base on Mars, which could take years and cost millions of dollars, one could send a signal containing files for the 3D printer, says Luis Fernando Velásquez-García, a principal research scientist in MIT’s Microsystems Technology Laboratories (MTL).

“There is no reason to make capable hardware in only a few centers of manufacturing when the need is global. Instead of trying to ship hardware all over the world, can we empower people in distant places to make it themselves? Additive manufacturing can play a tremendous role in terms of democratizing these technologies,” adds Velásquez-García, the senior author of a new paper on the 3D printed solenoids that appears in the journal Virtual and Physical Prototyping.

He is joined on the paper by lead author Jorge Cañada, an electrical engineering and computer science graduate student; and Hyeonseok Kim, a mechanical engineering graduate student.

Additive advantages

A solenoid generates a magnetic field when an electrical current is passed through it. When someone rings a doorbell, for instance, electric current flows through a solenoid, which generates a magnetic field that moves an iron rod so it strikes a chime.

Integrating solenoids onto electrical circuits manufactured in a clean room poses significant challenges, as they have very different form factors and are made using incompatible processes that require post assembly. Consequently, researchers have investigated making solenoids utilizing many of the same processes that make semiconductor chips. But these techniques limit the size and shape of solenoids, which hampers performance.

With additive manufacturing, one can produce devices that are practically any size and shape. However, this presents its own challenges, since making a solenoid involves coiling thin layers made from multiple materials that may not all be compatible with one machine.

To overcome these challenges, the researchers needed to modify a commercial extrusion 3D printer.

Extrusion printing fabricates objects one layer at a time by squirting material through a nozzle. Typically, a printer uses one type of material feedstock, often spools of filament.

“Some people in the field look down on them because they are simple and don’t have a lot of bells and whistles, but extrusion is one of very few methods that allows you to do multimaterial, monolithic printing,” says Velásquez-García.

This is key, since the solenoids are produced by precisely layering three different materials — a dielectric material that serves as an insulator, a conductive material that forms the electric coil, and a soft magnetic material that makes up the core.

The team selected a printer with four nozzles — one dedicated to each material to prevent cross-contamination. They needed four extruders because they tried two soft magnetic materials, one based on a biodegradable thermoplastic and the other based on nylon.

Printing with pellets

They retrofitted the printer so one nozzle could extrude pellets, rather than filament. The soft magnetic nylon, which is made from a pliable polymer studded with metallic microparticles, is virtually impossible to produce as a filament. Yet this nylon material offers far better performance than filament-based alternatives.

Using the conductive material also posed challenges, since it would start melting and jam the nozzle. The researchers found that adding ventilation to cool the material prevented this. They also built a new spool holder for the conductive filament that was closer to the nozzle, reducing friction that could damage the thin strands.

Even with the team’s modifications, the customized hardware cost about $4,000, so this technique could be employed by others at a lower cost than other approaches, adds Velásquez-García.

The modified hardware prints a U.S. quarter-sized solenoid as a spiral by layering material around the soft magnetic core, with thicker conductive layers separated by thin insulating layers.

Precisely controlling the process is of paramount importance because each material prints at a different temperature. Depositing one on top of another at the wrong time might cause the materials to smear.

Because their machine could print with a more effective soft magnetic material, the solenoids achieved higher performance than other 3D-printed devices.

The printing method enabled them to build a three-dimensional device comprising eight layers, with coils of conductive and insulating material stacked around the core like a spiral staircase. Multiple layers increase the number of coils in the solenoid, which improves the amplification of the magnetic field.

Due to the added precision of the modified printer, they could make solenoids that were about 33 percent smaller than other 3D-printed versions. More coils in a smaller area also boosts amplification.

In the end, their solenoids could produce a magnetic field that was about three times larger than what other 3D-printed devices can achieve.

“We were not the first people to be able to make inductors that are 3D-printed, but we were the first ones to make them three-dimensional, and that greatly amplifies the kinds of values you can generate. And that translates into being able to satisfy a wider range of applications,” he says.

For instance, while these solenoids can’t generate as much magnetic field as those made with traditional fabrication techniques, they could be used as power convertors in small sensors or actuators in soft robots.

Moving forward, the researchers are looking to continue enhancing their performance.

For one, they could try using alternate materials that might have better properties. They are also exploring additional modifications that could more precisely control the temperature at which each material is deposited, reducing defects.
