Researchers have resolved a long-standing debate surrounding laser additive manufacturing processes with a pioneering approach to defect detection. Researchers from EPFL have resolved a long-standing ...

Additive manufacturing is a key technology for industry that allows building structures by progressive addition of material, with complex geometries. One of the main techniques is the laser beam ...

Engineers have succeeded in fabricating a nickel single crystal with only a very few crystalline defects by irradiating nickel powder with a large-radius, flat-top laser beam (i.e., a laser beam whose ...

The last decade has witnessed a huge development in additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing when compared with its counterpart, subtractive manufacturing. AM enables rapid prototyping, ease of ...

In the late 1980s, Binder Jetting (BJ), or powder-liquid three-dimensional printing (3DP), was developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Licensing this technology to several sectors ...

Additive manufacturing (AM) is a set of manufacturing technologies that automate the layer-by-layer construction of parts, based on computer-aided design files. Over the past decade, AM has ...
