설명
A new Opticon test geometry was designed to meet the requirements for lightweight and stiff optical components. The test geometry could be used to compare systems and materials and to see if this design is appropriate for those processes as well. The idea is to provide designers and engineers a real production case build on multiple processes and materials and help them to improve the quality of new concepts and parts.
Multiple design features are incorporated in the Opticon Test Geometry that will display the capabilities and limitations of the selected Additive Manufacturing Technology. The round structure is divided in pie sections of 45 degrees. Each section is dedicated to a certain type of lattice or family of features. There are two vacant positions free to implement a custom lattice structure.
The development of the test geometry and Research is part of the Opticon project and is supported by the European Commission's H2020 program grant number 730890
