| Abstract Scope |
This study investigates the quality and production cost of additive manufacturing feedstock produced via ultrasonic atomization. Ultrasonic atomization of metal powder presents potential advantages in terms of cost-efficiency and yield of usable powder. By examining key factors such as material utilization, energy consumption, and equipment usage expenses, the research aims to provide a comprehensive cost analysis of the process.
The findings are evaluated jointly with the quality of the produced powder, including powder size distribution, morphology, and purity.
Finally, by analyzing and comparing different material systems, this study aims to identify cases in which ultrasonic atomization can be a viable alternative to traditional, large scale powder production methods. |
