Additive Manufacturing (AM) with powder bed fusion (PBF-LB/M) offers truly unique design possibilities, enabling the manufacturing of nearly unimaginable geometries. These range from intricate lattice structures in medical implants that promote bone growth to massive, one-meter-high rocket engines for space
exploration – entirely designed by computers and artificial intelligence (AI). This is nowadays achieved in an additive manufacturing system using a single tool – a Gaussian laser beam that melts and solidifies powdered material into the desired solid geometry.
If this single tool already offers such vast possibilities, imagine what could be achieved with a toolbox full of advanced laser tools. Let’s take a sneak peek into the future toolbox of PBF-LB/M…
