Don’t miss the next Distinguished Microwave Lecture on Additive
Manufacturing: Emerging opportunities for microwave components on April 22,
at 15 p.m., with Cristiano Tomassoni, Associate Professor at University of
Perugia, Italy. 

 

Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology, also known as 3D-printing
technology, offers several interesting and attractive features, including
fast prototyping, geometry flexibility, easily customizable products, and
low cost (in some cases). However, using such technologies for microwave
devices is not straightforward as AM has not been specifically developed for
microwave components. In most cases, some adaptation and post-processing is
necessary. Furthermore, there are many AM technologies available, and it is
important to understand their characteristics before selecting one.

The presentation will provide an overview of the different AM technologies
available. Additionally, an analysis of some of the most common AM
technologies used for manufacturing microwave components will be conducted
in more detail, with the help of several examples. Several microwave
components manufactured with some of the most popular AM technologies will
be shown, along with a detailed description of the manufacturing process,
post-processing, and all actions necessary to make the component perform
well. Furthermore, it will be shown how the flexibility of this technology
allows the development of new classes of components with non-conventional
geometries that can be exploited to obtain high-performing components in
terms of compactness, weight, losses, etc.

 

Bio:

Cristiano Tomassoni received his Ph.D. in Electronics Engineering from the
University of Perugia, Perugia, Italy, in 1999. In the same year, he joined
the Lehrstuhl für Hochfrequenztechnik, Technical University of Munich,
Munich, Germany as a Visiting Scientist, where he worked on the modeling of
waveguide structures and devices using the generalized scattering matrix
technique. In 2001, he was a Guest Professor at the Fakultät für
Elektrotechnik und Informationstechnik, Otto-von-Guericke University,
Magdeburg, Germany. In the early stages of his career, he contributed to the
enhancement of several analytical and numerical methods for electromagnetic
component simulation, including the finite-element method, mode-matching
technique, generalized multipole technique, method of moments,
transmission-line matrix, and mode matching applied to spherical waves. In
2001, he joined the University of Perugia, where he is currently an
Associate Professor and teaches the ‘Electromagnetic Fields course and the
‘Advanced Design of Microwave and RF Systems course. His main research
interests include modeling and designing of waveguide components and
antennas, miniaturized filters, reconfigurable filters, dielectric filters,
and substrate-integrated waveguide filters. He is currently studying the use
of Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology for the fabrication of microwave
components, considering various technologies such as Stereolithography
(SLA), Lithography-based Ceramic Manufacturing (LCM), Selective Laser
Melting (SLM), Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), and PolyJet technology.
