In the Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) process, metal powder is selectively melted and solidified layer by layer using a laser ...
Engineers at MIT have taken a metal that usually trades strength for lightness and pushed it into an entirely new class, ...
Designing materials that are both lightweight and exceptionally robust has always been a goal for engineers. However, ...
In additive manufacturing (AM), metal parts are commonly 3D-printed using a fabrication technique called “laser powder bed fusion” (LPBF). LPBF involves repeated rapid metal powder melting and ...
A recent study in Scientific Reports explored how volume energy density (VED) during laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) affects the microstructure and corrosion resistance of NiTi alloys (Nitinol). The ...
