Metal Additive Manufacturing Conference - MAMC 2022

Metal powder is the most common feedstock for metal additive manufacturing (AM), including powder bed fusion (laser beam PBF-LB, and electron beam - PBF-EB), binder jetting (BJT) and powder blown directed energy deposition (DED). However, even if the same alloys systems are used for these technologies, they have different requirements to the powder feedstock when it comes to its physical...

The speech will also focus on the production of Metal Powders and Powder Metallurgical Steels and especially its associated production technologies like HIP, MIM and AM. As they are and will become key future core technologies for a number of demanding products and thus for the usage in different associated industries. The presentation will also highlight the actual supply and demand situation...

A significant factor slowing down the establishment of metal-based additive manufacturing techniques as production processes is insufficient reproducibility and productivity. Among all additive manufacturing processes, the highest maturity level is shown by laser-based powder bed fusion of metals (PBF-LB/M). Nevertheless, the process is characterized by several phase changes and a highly...

To increase the relevance of LPBF in industrial manufacturing, it is necessary to increase the productivity of the process. This can be achieved on existing machine systems without changing the hardware by locally adapting the energy input in the LPBF process by using qualitative (and slow) parameters only in areas where the geometry or the application also requires it - while manufacturing...

Conformal cooling in mold inserts was one of the first applications of metal 3D printing. The potential of optimized temperature control to reduce scrap or cycle time was recognized early on. In the meantime, however, not only the technology and the available tool steels have evolved, but also the possibilities in the field of tool design. Both the way near-contour cooling channels are...
