Results for tag: "Metal Additive Manufacturing"

Metal Additive Manufacturing (AM) is a 3D printing process that uses metal powder or wire as the raw material. It is used to create complex parts and components with high accuracy and repeatability. The process involves the use of a laser or electron beam to melt and fuse the metal powder or wire layer by layer, creating a 3D object. Metal AM is used in a variety of industries, including aerospace, automotive, medical, and consumer products. Metal AM offers several advantages over traditional manufacturing processes, such as reduced lead times, improved design flexibility, and lower costs. It also enables the production of complex geometries and internal structures that are not possible with traditional manufacturing methods. Some of the major players in the metal AM market include 3D Systems, EOS, SLM Solutions, Renishaw, and GE Additive. Show Less Read more
