Abstract Scope |
With the rapid growth in additive technologies, there is a need for materials and material systems development to keep pace. To accelerate materials development and allow the progress to be utilized by additive technologies, FormAlloy designed and developed the ADF Alloy Development Feeder to enable rapid deposition of up to 16 different alloys or alloy blends. Utilizing a revolver-style motion, each powder vial can be accessed and deposited quickly and efficiently. Custom alloys can developed by blending existing alloys or elemental powders in designated ratios and deposited by additive technologies like Directed Energy Deposition (DED). Functionally graded material (FGM) systems can be executed easily in a predetermined deposition strategy. Discover how the FormAlloy ADF works and how it reduces alloy development time by orders of magnitude. |
