Reduced Human Intervention For Additive manufacturing at Large-Scale (RHIFALS)

RHIFALS项目涉及三家总部位于英国的高科技公司与华威大学合作，以改进大规模3D打印，能够打印出几米大小的部件。该项目专注于改进操作设备所涉及的数字工作流程的两个主要领域--从而提高系统的效率，减少处理时间和成本。此外，该项目将专注于大规模生产所需的程序，并将展示这种制造方法对未来汽车制造零部件直接生产的适用性。该项目的成功实施将有助于使英国处于工业3D打印技术开发的前沿，并对其领先的汽车原始设备制造商网络的持续加强做出重大贡献。

The RHIFALS project involves three high-tech UK-based companies working in a consortiumalong with the University of Warwick to improve large scale 3D printing, capable of printingparts several metres in size.The project focusses on improving two main areas of the digital workflow involved in operatingthe equipment --thereby improving the efficiency of the system, reducing both process timeand cost. Additionally, the project will focus on the procedures necessary for mass-productionand will demonstrate the suitability of such a manufacturing approach for the future directproduction of components for automotive manufacturing.The successful delivery of the project will help put the UK at the forefront of industrial 3Dprinting technology development as well as contribute significantly to the continued strengthof its network of leading Automotive OEMs.
