Fig. 1 Harmonic heterostructure developed by a manufacturing route of MM and LPBF endows pure Ti implants with excellent wear resistance via strength-plasticity synergy. Titanium (Ti) is a promising ...

In additive manufacturing (AM), metal parts are commonly 3D-printed using a fabrication technique called “laser powder bed fusion” (LPBF). LPBF involves repeated rapid metal powder melting and ...

RMS produces as many as 20,000 3D-printed titanium implants, such as these spinal implants, per month on 30 powder bed fusion machines. All of these parts require finishing at a machine shop the ...

SolidCAM is enabling job shops to master the entire metal AM process, from design to printing to post-process machining. If you're a job shop or other high-mix machining operation, sooner or later you ...

Thanks to groundbreaking concepts such as generative design and topology optimization software, additive manufacturing is liberating design engineers in ways that were unfathomable even a decade ago.

This article will describe three types, or ways, of manufacturing a product; additive, subtractive, and forming. What is Additive Manufacturing? Think of an artist painting a bear on a canvas. What is ...

Over the past decade, 3-D printing has transformed from a hobbyist or prototyping tool into an industrial-grade production process, referred to as additive manufacturing. Today, additively ...

The Biden Administration's new package of aid for the nation's manufacturing SMEs called Additive Manufacturing Forward aims to promote innovation and adoption of additive manufacturing (3D printing) ...
