Process design for high throughput Laser Powder Bed Fusion

Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) suffers from modest build rates. A powder bed component typically requires many hours to produce; hence for LPBF to become time and cost effective, batch sizes are limited to especially low volumes. By reducing build times, components can be realised much faster and it...
