Title: José Martinho Marques De Oliveira and Ceramic Binder Jet Printing

Introduction

José Martinho Marques De Oliveira is an inventor associated with Avanca, Portugal. His patent work addresses challenges in ceramic additive manufacturing, particularly the mechanical fragility and design defects that can affect objects produced through binder jet printing.

Latest Patents

The available information lists 1 patent for De Oliveira: “Composition for Additive Manufacturing by Binder Jet Printing and Method for Additive Manufacturing by Binder Jet Printing.”

The invention describes a composition containing ceramic particulate material that has undergone heat treatment and a water-soluble binder particulate material. The ceramic material is heated to between 600 and 1,200 °C for 1 to 20 hours. This treatment creates bonds and aggregations between ceramic particles, helping them remain together during printing.

The associated method forms an object by repeatedly depositing a layer of the composition onto a printing bed and then depositing a liquid binder. The approach is intended to improve the mechanical integrity of printed objects and reduce design defects.

Career Highlights

De Oliveira is associated with Porcelanas da Costa Verde S.A. and the University of Aveiro. These connections place his work within the fields of ceramics, materials, and manufacturing research.
