Stave support status  1st prototypes printed in 3D (ABS Plus) - Low quality - Can be used as preliminary tests Next prototypes could be printed with the new 3D printer of the polymer lab? -Platform size: 250x250x250 mm; - X and Y plane limited by laser beam diameter (~0.075 –0.300 mm); - Z axis limited by layer thickness - Fast 0.15 mm (25) - Exact 0.1 mm (25,48HTR,BS) - HR 0.05 mm (25,48HTR) (Due to overcuring it should be minimum 3x the layer thickness) picture

Stave comments from the ASTM D790-02 Observation from the flexural test: The bending stiffness is decreasing with the support spacing. ASTM.- D 790 paragraph 7.5: Highly orthotropic laminate The span to depth ratio should be chosen such that failure failure occurs in the outer fibers of the specimens and is due only to the bending moment. A span to depth ratio larger than 16:1 may be necessary. For some highly anisotropic composites, shear deformation can significantly influence modulus measurements, even at a span to depth ratio as high as 40:1. Hence, for this material, an increase of the span to depth ratio to 60:1 is recommended to eliminate shear effects when modulus data are required, it should also be noted that the flexural modulus of highly anisotropic laminates is a strong function of ply stacking sequence [...]. From ASTM D790 Note 16: Shear deflexions can seriously reduce the apparent modulus of highly anisotropic composites when they are tested at low span to depth ratios. For this reason a span to depth ratio of 60 to 1 is recommended for flexural modulus determination on these composites. [...]. Since the flexural modulus of highly anisotropic laminates is a critical function of ply stacking sequence, it will not necessarily correlate with tensile modulus, which is not stacking-sequence dependent.
