Metal Additive Manufacturing Conference - MAMC 2021

To accurately describe the Selective Laser Melting with the goal to study residual stress development and deformations induced by the manufacturing process is very challenging due to the complex physics of the process. A concentrated, fast moving heat source on a very small scale in intricate patterns, multiphysics and metallurgy combined creates quite a challenge. In this work, methods from...

The Danish industry has been reluctant to adopt Metal AM, despite the enormous potential for tailored and flexible manufacturing. A national granted project called: “AM-LINE 4.0” (2018 – 2021) has paved the way for the Danish manufacturing industry by removing barriers preventing implementation. The project has a total budget of 12M EUR and is a partnership with the leading industrial...

Additive manufacturing makes it possible to produce highly complex components such as turbine blades with integrated cooling channels directly from a digital 3D CAD model. However, the material selection of nickel-base superalloys for the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process is limited to a few alloys that reveal a high printability, such as IN625 or IN718. These alloys, however, exhibit...
