“Additive manufacturing” describes a range of technologies that convert CAD models into 3D forms, including stereolithography and fused deposition modeling, for polymers and other non-metallic ...

Understanding which AM processes are achieving flight qualification, and why, requires engineers to think simultaneously about process physics, material microstructure, ...

Integrex i-400AM is a turnkey installation that, according to Mazak, is particularly well suited to small-lot production of difficult-to-cut materials, such as aerospace alloys, high-hardness ...

Additive manufacturing (AM) encompasses a suite of technologies that build parts layer by layer from digital models, offering unparalleled design freedom, material efficiency and customisation. The ...

In the early 1980s, machine tool builders added milling spindles to turning machines, and Multi-Tasking was born. Within a decade, the concept quickly progressed to machines that not only combined ...

The dynamics of additive manufacturing encompass a complex interplay of heat transfer, fluid flow, phase change and solidification that govern the development of microstructure, mechanical properties ...

Although additive manufacturing has already played an integral part in the creation of drones, there is a new trend developing as this technology goes beyond creating prototypes and begins to ...

For metallic alloys in aerospace, machine learning can make the development of additive manufacturing (AM) processes both faster and cheaper. In collaboration with the University of Sheffield Advanced ...

Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technolog (ILT), Aachen, Germany, is tackling the challenge of 3D printing large components economically by using a new process called Hybrid AM that combines ...
