The main metal additive manufacturing processes
THE LASER BEAM MELTING PROCESS
Strengths
_ Complex geometries
_ Single part / small series
_ Quite a wide range of materials
_ Many machines/subcontractors
Fields of application
_ Tools
_ Medical
_ Aerospace
_ Space
The proposed standard powder grading is <35, 15-45, 20-63µm
THE ELECTRON BEAM MELTING (EBM) PROCESS
Strengths
_ Complex geometries
_ Higher productivity than laser beam melting
_ Low residual stresses
_ Few supports
_ Possibility of stacking parts
Fields of application
_ Medical
_ Aerospace
_ Space
The standard powder grading proposed for EBM is 45-105µm.
