Mikael Åsberg (Karlstad University)27/11/2019, 09:50Tools, Space and Aircraft, Automotive, Medical and othersOral PresentationWith additive manufacturing the internal cooling channels can be manufactured to an optimized geometry in order to have conformal cooling. In die casting soldering and heat checking are the main problems. Soldering is a result of the interaction between the steel and the molten aluminium. Heat checking is related to thermal fatigue. The development of AM powder is still at an early stage and...Go to contribution page
