  • the surface metallization may be carried out using a number of methods, including activation with palladium and chemical copper or nickel plating, silver plating, use of a conductive paint, etc..
  • activation with palladium and chemical copper or nickel plating In view of the item roughness, which clearly is dependent on the particle size of the powder, where a sintered powder is used, being not inconsiderable, the activation with palladium looks less suitable because any hard-to-reach spots by the mechanical smoothing process may result in activation differences and an incompletely coated shape.
  • An activation with palladium can be employed, however, in the instance of items which are perfectly smooth.
  • the coating may comprise copper (from an acidic copper-plating bath) , which is advantageous because only slightly stressed and easy to grow to 0.2 mm and above; the coating application is self-levelling and therefore inherently adapted to spread uniformly over the item. Highly advantageous is the construction of holding fixtures which can deliver a sufficient amount of electric current to the regions that are most deeply screened off. This will avoid insufficiently coated spots. Care should be taken to prevent such conductive holding fixtures from interacting with the item to tension load it. The electroplating bath will not stress the coated item significantly if the electroplating bath is applied at room temperature.
  • the coating may also be a nickel plating. This type of coating grants high mechanical strength for the work- piece, definitely higher than that afforded by copper plating, but is attended by fairly high residual stress (despite the bath being sulphamate-based, and having therefore lower residual stresses than other baths) . Furthermore, the coating temperature of about 65°C undermines its integrity where the coating thickness exceeds 50 ⁇ m. To overcome this constraint on thickness, a lower coating temperature in the range of 50° to 30 °C, advantageously of 35 °C, may be used in order to preserve the integrity of the layer.
  • the coating may comprise a copper/nickel plating. This combination allows large coating thicknesses to be obtained at no trade-off for its ease of application (meaning ease of coating and its integrity) .
  • a first layer of copper is coated to a thickness of 20 to 150 ⁇ m, advantageously of 70 to 100 ⁇ m, followed by a nickel layer 50 to 150 ⁇ m, advantageously 80-100 ⁇ m, thick.
  • the coated item is quite effective to dissipate the heat transferred to the item in use, given the excellent thermal conductivity of the metal layer.
  • the application of the first coating layer of copper can be carried out by dipping the item as treated with metallic paint in the electroplating bath for 10 minutes at a current density of 0.5 A/dm2 as initial value, followed by a settling step of 5 minutes at 1 A/dm2. Subsequently to this, the rate of electroplating may be in the range of 2.5 A/dm2 up to the moment when the target thickness of the copper layer is attained. Since the "polyamide", i.e. the plastics material serving as prime material in the rapid prototyping process, is recognized to be a somewhat difficult material to have coated, special care must be devoted to the emplacement of the electric supply electrodes 15 to the surface 12 treated with metallic paint.
  • the items are first smoothed using abrasive paper of tapering grade to 240-400; then the item is coated on all sides, this being important especially with thin sections because significant distortion may be introduced by the coating resin curing process. That is to say, the curing stresses in the resin might distort the item if the latter is coated unevenly.
  • a release film is applied over the coated regions, and the coated item is sealed inside a valve-fitted bag.
  • the polymeric matrix of the coating is cured in an oven at a suitable temperature for the resin employed, and with the bag under vacuum state. Using an autoclave for the purpose is not recommended because the substrate material employed in the rapid prototyping process would not withstand the pressure therein.
  • the minimum thickness of the pre-impregnated fibre coating, film is about 0.2 mm, which is adequate to conform to all the features of the item being coated, the rapid prototyping technique being known for its suitability to form features of highly complex shapes.
  • the residence time in the oven and curing temperature will depend on the resin selected and the capability of the substrate or starting material of the rapid prototyping process to withstand the process temperature.
  • This coating grants the item remarkable mechanical strength and stiffness; accordingly, using the item formed by rapid prototyping and coating it to a thickness that may exceed the aforementioned 0.2 mm, since thickness can be increased as desired to suit the geometry and target mechanical characteristics, it being possible to differentiate them as specific functional areas by the application of successive layers.
  • the item is not tied to the availability of a mould, and carbon fibre or glass fibre items can be made in a short time to highly complex geometries that would add considerably to the cost of a mould.
  • excess resin can be removed being careful not to damage the fibres.
  • the item is varnished with a clear lacquer if the fibre is to be left in view, or painted with colour paints.
  • teachings of this invention enable items to be manufactured by rapid prototyping without the items being under the constraint of the characteristics of the prime material employed, the coating provided contributing enhanced mechanical characteristics as regards ultimate strength and stiffness of the end product.
