Hans-Henrik Konig, Niklas Hollander Pettersson, A Durga, Steven Van Petegem, Daniel Grolimund, Qilin Guo, Chihpin Chuang, lianyi Chen, Christos Oikonomou, Fan Zhang, Greta Lindwall
Solidification during fusion-based additive manufacturing (AM) is characterized by high solidification velocities and high thermal gradients, two factors that control the solidification mode of AM metals and alloys. Using two synchrotron-based, in situ

Sustainable Additive Manufacturing of Polyelectrolyte Photopolymer Complexes

January 29, 2023
Author(s)
Thomas Kolibaba, Jason Killgore, Callie Higgins
Polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs), assemblies of oppositely charged polymers with powerful properties and wide-ranging applications, are currently not melt-processable via any conventional means and have been limited commercially to applications only as

Characterizing light engine uniformity and its influence on LCD-based vat photopolymerization printing

December 27, 2022
Author(s)
Benjamin Caplins, Callie Higgins, Thomas Kolibaba, Uwe Arp, C Cameron Miller, Dianne L. Poster, Clarence Zarobila, Yuqin Zong, Jason Killgore
Vat photopolymerization (VP) is a rapidly growing category of additive manufacturing. As VP methods mature the expectation is that the quality of printed parts will be highly reproducible. At present, detailed characterization of the light engines used in

In-Process Data Integration for Laser Powder Bed Fusion Additive Manufacturing

November 11, 2022
Author(s)
Milica Perisic, Yan Lu, Albert T. Jones
Additive manufacturing (AM) is a powerful technology that can create complex metallic parts and has the potential to improve the economic bottom line for various industries. However, due to process instabilities, and the resulting material defects that

STEP-NC COMPLIANT DATA REPRESENTATIONS FOR POWDER BED FUSION IN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

November 11, 2022
Author(s)
Fahad Milaat, Paul Witherell, Martin Hardwick, Ho Yeung, Vincenzo Ferrero, Laetitia Monnier, Matthew Brown
Powder bed fusion (PBF) is an additive manufacturing (AM) technology that uses powerful beams to fuse powder material into layers of scanned patterns, thus producing parts with great geometric complexity. For PBF, process parameters, environmental control

Modes of laser melting in additive manufacturing of metals

October 20, 2022
Author(s)
Cang Zhao, Bo Shi, Shuailei Chen, Tao Sun, Brian Simonds, Anthony Rollett
In the laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing of metals, extreme thermal conditions create many highly dynamic physical phenomena, such as vaporization and recoil, Marangoni convection, and protrusion and keyhole instability. Collectively, however

STEP-NC Process Planning for Powder Bed Fusion Additive Manufacturing

October 20, 2022
Author(s)
Fahad Milaat, Paul Witherell, Martin Hardwick, Ho Yeung, Vincenzo Ferrero, Laetitia Monnier, Matthew Brown
Powder bed fusion (PBF) is an additive manufacturing (AM) technology that uses high-power beams to fuse powder material into layers of scanned patterns, thus producing parts with great geometric complexity. For PBF, the selection of appropriate process
