Parts may suffer from defects such as anisotropy, micro-porosity, gas entrapment, or residual stresses. Advantages and Limitations Extreme design freedom and customization High initial equipment and production costs Significant reduction in material waste and scrap
“AM transforms more and more from rapid prototyping to rapid manufacturing applications which require not only profound knowledge of the process itself, but also of the microstructure” ScienceDirect.com · 9 years ago Future Outlook Additive Manufacturing of Metals: The Technolog...
Similar to SLM but uses an electron beam in a vacuum. It offers higher build rates but generally results in a rougher surface finish. Parts may suffer from defects such as anisotropy,
Most metal AM processes involve selectively melting or joining metal feedstocks, typically in powder or wire form. The three most industrially relevant technologies include: Most metal AM processes involve selectively melting or
Experts highlight that the value of metal AM is highly dependent on production volume and application complexity.
