A team of researchers led by the University of Cambridge has developed a new technique that uses high-energy lasers to fine tune the properties of 3D-printed metal without compromising the complex ...
In January 2016, researchers from the Air Force Research Laboratory started focusing on the ability to 3D-print parts for the Air Force, specifically polymer architectures that can replace heavier and ...
Spreading the laser beam's intensity out reduces the temperature difference between sections of the part being printed. Laser powder bed fusion (LBPF), a 3D printing technique commonly used to make ...
