(Nanowerk News) Structural defects that form during additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, are a barrier to some applications of this technology. Researchers used diagnostic tools and ...

A growing number of academic and industrial research groups regard the integration of artificial intelligence-based algorithms into the 3D printing process as a promising approach to improve the ...

Argonne scientists who worked on a project to avoid defects in 3D-printed parts pose in front of a device that simulates laser powder bed fusion in a commercial 3D printer. Pictured, clockwise from ...

Engineers have found a way to simultaneously mitigate three types of defects in parts produced using a prominent additive manufacturing technique called laser powder bed fusion. University of ...

Tungsten carbide can now be printed without melting or ruining its strength A laser and heated wire soften metal just enough to bond layers Avoiding full melting reduces defects that previously ...
