Paper: Flaw Generation in Laser Powder Bed Fusion Additive Manufacturing

To correlate data collected from monitoring and inspection techniques with actual types and sizes of discontinuities in AM components, precise flaw-generation methods need to be developed. This paper explores EWI’s work to intentionally create flaws with specific sizes and geometries using the laser powder bed fusion process.

Assessment of Literature on Fatigue Performance of Additively Manufactured Metals

Additive manufacturing for metal parts holds the promise of being a widely-used manufacturing method allowing much shorter lead times to create pieces than for conventional manufacturing methods. Useful components must not only be manufactured with short lead times, but also provide attractive mechanical properties on which designers and users can rely for the performance of the finished part.

New EWI Article: Does Friction Stir Welding Add-Up?

The aerospace industry is leading the way by adopting additive manufacturing (AM) as a method of quickly and cost-effectively producing complex components. In addition to in-process quality control, post-process inspection, material and process development, and property database development, new AM processes are also needed to allow manufacturers to efficiently build large-scale components. EWI has demonstrated […]
