Metal Additive Manufacturing Conference - MAMC 2024

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...

Additive manufacturing has made significant progress in recent years, particularly with the advent of next-generation technologies. This lecture explores cutting-edge innovations that are reshaping the Additive Manufacturing landscape and propelling it into a new frontier. The focus is on innovative AM processes, including the state-of-the-art of processing of metallic materials such as Ti-,...

Additive Manufacturing technologies are growing rapidly and moving towards industrial-grade production technology; however the development and qualification of materials and processes remain time-consumingand costly challenges for faster AM adoption. An integrated multi-scale approach designed to accelerate AM materials and process development and qualification will be discussed as a potential...

The different technologies in Metal Additive Manufacturing evolved to a technology and manufacturing readiness to apply them in serial production of functional as well as critical parts. Still industrialization in datamanagement, automation and lean production is ongoing to enable a stronger penetration in the manufacturing sector. An overview with production examples is given on the progress...

This study investigates the utilization of machine learning for optimizing additive manufacturing processes, focusing on Laser PowderBed Fusion (L-PBF) and Laser Metal Deposition (LMD). By leveraging domain expertise, machine learning demonstrates significant potential in enhancing efficiency and quality. Through specific case studies, we highlight the benefits and limitations of...

The development history of LPBF began 30 years ago at the Fraunhofer ILT in Aachen. LPBF is now the most important additive manufacturing process for metalliccomponents. This presentation will take a look back at the beginnings of the process and the key development steps, present the current technological and economic status and provide an insight into current development trends.

Within the presentation an overlook of Aconity3D’s endeavor in providing the first closed-loop power laser control of the applied laser sourceswithin L-PBF is given. At this, current progress and limitations are provided, highlighting the state of the art in fully controlled first-time right approaches which forms a precondition for truly industrial manufacturing via Additive Manufacturing.
