Abstract
This study introduces the concept of printing two thermoplastic materials in a single 3D Printing process – one conductive the other non-conductive – to form interdigital sensor structures for Dielectric Analysis in mould tools for cure monitoring of the epoxy matrix during the Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer manufacturing process. This low-cost method would allow for reduced assembly and ease of sensor placement directly from Computed Aided Design, whilst using an accessible technology.
The results obtained showed a cure point can be identified in accordance with the epoxy specifications, via integration of interdigital sensors manufactured using conductive composite PolyLactic Acid with multi-material Fused Deposition Modelling.
