Post-Processing: Pseudo Type
摘要
What if post-processing-type actions, such as milling, rolling, heating, etc., are used during the in-process stage? These improve the efficacy of a process. For example, in wire arc AM, interlayer friction stir processing or rolling is used after some layers to improve grain refinement. As rolling is done before the completion of the shaping, it is part of a process. The rolling decreases the height of a build and influences the shape (i.e., proportion of features), but influencing a shape is not equal to creating a shape. Influencing is a negative development that is negated by changing the digital file.
