Abstract:

An example mold assembly for fabricating an infiltrated downhole tool includes a mold forming a bottom of the mold assembly, and a funnel operatively coupled to the mold and having an inner wall, an outer wall, and a cavity defined between the inner and outer walls. An infiltration chamber is defined at least partially by the mold and the funnel. The inner wall faces the infiltration chamber and the outer wall forms at least a portion of an outer periphery of the mold assembly.

Abstract:

A method for fabricating a metal-matrix composite tool includes positioning an inner mold within an outer mold and thereby defining a gap between the inner and outer molds. A first reinforcement material is then loaded into the gap, and the first reinforcement material is infiltrated at a first temperature with a first binder material and thereby forming an outer shell. The inner mold is then removed and a second reinforcement material is loaded at least partially into the outer shell and infiltrated at a second temperature with a second binder material and thereby forming a reinforced composite material. The second temperature is lower than the first temperature and the second binder material is different than the first binder material. The outer shell is attached to exterior portions of the reinforced composite material.

Abstract:

A method for bonding components is disclosed. The method may comprise positioning an interlayer between a metallic component and a metal-plated non-metallic component at a bond region, heating the bond region to a bonding temperature to produce a liquid at the bond region, and maintaining the bond region at the bonding temperature until the liquid has solidified to form a bond between the metallic component and the metal-plated non-metallic component at the bond region. A method for providing a part having a customized coating is also disclosed. The method may comprise applying a metallic coating on a surface of a metallic substrate, and bonding the metallic coating to the metallic substrate by a transient liquid phase bonding process to provide the part having the customized coating.

Abstract:

A method for fabricating a metal part with additive manufacturing includes additive manufacturing a resin into a desired shape having an outer surface, followed by preparing the outer surface to receive a catalyst, activating the outer surface with the catalyst; and then plating a first metal onto the outer surface and the catalyst to form a first layer to form a structure. The resin is selected from imidized polyimide, bismaleimide and combinations thereof.
