SLM-based additive manufacturing of nickel superalloys still poses significant challenges due to these alloys’ complex composition. With multiple alloying elements and high aluminum/titanium fraction, these materials, when consolidated through SLM form various secondary phases, which affects the processability and leading to weakness within ...
NASA used ResonantAcoustic mixing and additive manufacturing to synthesize an alloy they termed GRX-810, which survived temperatures over 1,090 °C (1,990 °F). The alloy also featured improved strength, malleability, and durability. The printer dispersed oxide particles uniformly throughout the metal matrix.
Originally developed to produce oxide-dispersion strengthened (ODS) nickel- and iron-base superalloys for applications in the aerospace industry, [1] MA has now been shown to be capable of synthesizing a variety of equilibrium and non-equilibrium alloy phases starting from blended elemental or pre-alloyed powders. [2]
A wide range of engineering alloys are compatible with the EBDM process and are readily available in the form of welding wire from an existing supply base. These include, but are not limited to, stainless steels, cobalt alloys, nickel alloys, copper nickel alloys, tantalum, titanium alloys, as well as many other high-value materials. [citation ...
Arcam AB manufactures electron beam melting (EBM) systems for use in additive manufacturing, which create solid parts from metal powders. [5] Arcam also produces metal powder through AP&C [6] and medical implants through DiSanto Technologies. [7] Arcam AB was founded by innovator Ralf Larson and financier Jarl Assmundson, in 1997.
Nickel aluminide refers to either of two widely used intermetallic compounds, Ni 3 Al or NiAl, but the term is sometimes used to refer to any nickel–aluminium alloy. These alloys are widely used because of their high strength even at high temperature, low density, corrosion resistance, and ease of production. [ 1 ]
Alternative variants of nickel-reduced maraging steels are based on alloys of iron and manganese plus minor additions of aluminum, nickel and titanium with compositions between Fe-9wt% Mn to Fe-15wt% Mn qualify used. [5] The manganese has an effect similar to nickel, i.e. it stabilizes the austenite phase.
Ultrasonic Consolidation (UC) or Ultrasonic Additive Manufacturing (UAM) is a low temperature additive manufacturing or 3D printing technique for metals. [ 1 ] UAM part examples: Micro heat exchanger and dissimilar metal part with aluminum and copper.
