Ceramic, a kind of poly-crystalline monolith sintered by inorganic, non-metallic crystallites, is normally opaque due to defects, voids and birefringence. Eliminating the inner light scatter creates ...
Generally, the production of modern ceramic components falls into one of two distinct processing stages. The ceramic powder is first evenly dispersed in a liquid to specific proportions, and next, it ...
Many applications require joining metals to ceramics, such as sealing electrodes to glass enclosures for light bulbs. Such joints need to provide continuous chemical contact across the interface ...
Developing optimized, and in some cases certified, metal powders for AM has been critical to progressing from a prototyping method to an established manufacturing technology. This transition has ...
Discussions regarding additive manufacturing (AM) metal parts in aerospace tend to focus around the 3D-printing machine as an ...
Ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) and metal matrix composites (MMCs) have long played an important role for the military and aerospace in protecting military vehicles, as well as spacecraft and space ...
Metal AM feedstock study shows reclaimed M247 superalloy outperformed conventionally sourced stainless powders across key recoating metrics.
