    摘要: A method of manufacturing a metal mask includes providing a growth substrate with a conductive surface. Then, a cover pattern is formed on the conductive surface, which has at least one opening and an insulated surface touching the conductive surface. Next, using the cover pattern as a mask, a first electroforming is performed to form a mold part on the conductive surface. The mold part fills the opening and has a conductive pattern surface touching the conductive surface. The conductive pattern surface is flush with the insulated surface. After the first electroforming, the growth substrate is removed, while the cover pattern and the mold part are reserved. After removing the growth substrate, a second electroforming is performed to the conductive pattern surface of the mold part to form a metal pattern. Afterwards, the mold part and the cover pattern are removed from the metal pattern.

    摘要: Disclosed herein is a method comprising growing a shim by disposing a mandrel having an optional textured surface in an electrolytic bath, where the shim contains a negative image of the optional textured surface formed by electrolytic deposition of a metal; affixing the shim working-side down on a reference plane using a fixture; optically scanning the shim to reverse engineer a geometry of a non-working surface, where reverse engineering a geometry of the non-working surface includes developing a profile of the non-working surface and the thickness of the shim; and adding a material to the non-working surface of the shim via additive manufacturing to form a tool insert.

    摘要: A method for creating a metallurgic component comprises creating a thin-walled container corresponding to a shape of the metallurgic component from a metal. If powder metal is not already in the container (depending on a method of creating the container), the thin-walled container is filled with powder metal. A quick-can device is fixed to the thin-walled container, and the powder metal is consolidated inside the thin-walled container (e.g., in a hot isostatic press). During consolidation, pressure within the thin-walled container is monitored and a desired pressure differential between an inside of the thin-walled container and an outside of the thin-walled container is maintained by the quick-can device.
