| Abstract Scope |
The rapid growth in the additive manufacturing (AM) field raised the need of novel alloys that are tailored for the AM. The current alloy development research focuses on the processability improvement of the current conventional alloys or the design of new alloys for AM. In most cases, the testing of the mechanical properties of the newly developed alloys comes at later stages during the alloy development practice. This paper reports a fabrication strategy of hundreds of miniature tensile test specimens with different composition in few hours by direct laser metal deposition process. In addition, this paper also presents an accelerated path that allows quick testing of the mechanical properties at the early stages of the alloy development. Each of these samples represents a novel alloy. Therefore, based on the results of the mechanical properties, one can decide whether or not a specific alloy can be a good candidate for AM. |
