TY - JOUR A1 - Tezel, Tugce A1 - Schultheiss, Ulrich A1 - Hornberger, Helga A1 - Kovan, Volkan T1 - Operational wear behaviour of 3D-printed lightweight metal gears: EDS and oil analysis comparison JF - Materials Testing N2 - Additive manufacturing (AM) has come to the fore in recent years among manufacturing techniques. This technique, which has different advantages than traditional ones such as casting, forging and machining, is expected to be widely used in producing machine parts like gears in the coming years. Therefore, experimental data on AM parameters for lightweight metal gears are important for industrial production. In this study, a wear test was applied to AlSi10Mg and Ti6Al4V gears under operational conditions, and the wear behaviour of conventionally and additively manufactured gears was compared. The amount of abrasion elements was determined by analysing the oil in the gearbox. In addition, gear surfaces were analysed using scanning electron microscopy and an energy-dispersive spectrometer before and after wear. Thus, the wear behaviour of gears produced by conventional and AM under service conditions was demonstrated comparatively.

Whether multishaded blocks improve esthetic results and are a viable alternative to individually stained ceramics has not been fully determined. Purpose: The aim of this investigation was to examine the effect of multishaded blocks on the esthetic appearance of all-ceramic CEREC crowns and compare these crowns with single-shade and stained restorations. Material and methods: Ten subjects were included in this study. For each subject, 6 different crowns were milled with the use of a CEREC machine. One crown was milled from each of the following machinable ceramic materials: CEREC Vitablocs Mark II in classic colors; Vitablocs Mark II in 3D-Master colors; Vitablocs Mark II in either classic or 3D-Master colors, with additional staining; Megadenta Bloxx multishaded; Mark II experimental multilayer; and an experimental multilayer leucite ceramic. Three independent examiners assessed the esthetic appearance of crowns fabricated to match each subject's anterior tooth shade. A scale of 1 to 6 was used to score the shade match and esthetic adaptation of each crown, with 1 representing excellent characteristics and 3.5 serving as the threshold for clinical acceptability. The examiners' scores were averaged, and the mean values were analyzed with the Wilcoxon signed rank test (P=40 MPa as measured according to ISO 6 872; said second material is an organic material which at least partly fills the pores of said porous matrix; and said composite material has a modulus of elasticity, E, of >=25 GPa as measured according to ISO 10 477.

While coarsely distributed precipitates led to surfaces showing wavy structures and dents after electropolishing, a uniform microstructure resulted in an even finish of the surface. The homogenization and refinement of the microstructure by heat treatment is a method to ensure improved electropolished surfaces of Mg materials Y1 - 2025 U6 - http://nbn-resolving.de/urn/resolver.pl?urn:nbn:de:bvb:898-opus4-83512 SN - 0167-577X N1 - Corresponding author der OTH Regensburg: Jessica Kloiber VL - 397 PB - Elsevier BV ER -
