Dear rp community,
Often have i heard of a benchmark part , but could there be something
called a benchmark mold?!
please forgive my ignorance, in case it seems as if i've shamefully
indulged in the same!!
Actually i am desperately looking for a benchmark mold for my EOS S700
sand sintering machine which uses the direct croning process to build
sand molds and would soon be launching on an experiment to study the
machine characteristics .
i would require the sand mold to to be small in size and the mold
should also facilitate the growth of supports at various points.
The mold should include various features, typical of a sand
casting part .
Please let me know if any of you would be aware of any ftp site or some
other source for the mold . if any of you could facilitate me with one,
i'd be more than grateful .
I'd also like to hear from the EOS and SLS users as to how they ever
went about studying their machine characteristics as far as producing
sand molds is concerned.
how did their experiments look like?
any suggestions or advise on the same is welcome.
there is very little mention and discussion of the sand sintering process
on the mailing list and as a consequence i feel terribly lonely with such
an experiment in the offing!!
so please help SOS.
Thanx in advance and wish you all a verry verry Merry Christmas!
Anand
