Summary
Fraunhofer ILT partner has developed a laser-cleaning technique to be integrated in the die of Micro-FAST machine. The powder of the work piece can partially fuse with the material of the punch due to the high pressure and high temperatures during the sintering process: high viscosity of the liquid metal can lead to a significant build-up of residual layer on the punch and die in small cavities and, consequently, the inspection and cleaning of the punch is necessary to assure a high quality of the produced part.
Cleaning stations consist of following modules:
- Grabbing and moving the die-set
- Station with air nozzle for cleaning with compressed air
- Steering unit for moving the laser beam on to different parts of the cavity
- Variable focus shifter for different beam diameters
- Tool station for in-cavity cleaning
