Seminar - Additive Manufacturing at Sandia: An overview of Sandia activities and programs in AM
Sandia National Laboratories is a government-owned, contractor-operated multi-program laboratory. Sandia has had activities in advanced manufacturing, including additive manufacturing (AM) for over 30 years. Some of the AM processes that Sandia has been involved in include freeform ceramic fabrication (robocasting), laser engineered net shaping (LENS), and micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS). This presentation includes some specific current R&D to address some challenges in powder bed fusion additive manufacturing, including temperature monitoring for powder bed, and a snapshot of Sandia activities in additive manufacturing.
