Abstract:
A printer fabricates an object from a computerized model using a fused filament fabrication process and a bulk metallic glass. A shearing engine within a feed path for the bulk metallic glass actively induces a shearing displacement of the bulk metallic glass to mitigate crystallization, more specifically to extend processing time for handling the bulk metallic glass at elevated temperatures.
