3D Systems has generated a high-fidelity dataset including a wide range of mechanical and material properties for LaserForm Ti Gr23 (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) printed on the DMP Flex 350 Laser Powder Bed Fusion printer.
The full dataset includes raw data for tensile, fatigue, pin-bearing, shear, compression, chemistry, microstructure, and more.
This data may be useful to:
• Accelerate machine, material, and part qualification for critical applications.
• Perform a delta qualification for new machines to demonstrate equivalence to the dataset.
• Add to internal datasets for Laser Powder Bed Fusion of Metals (PBF-LB/M) process qualification.
Find out more at the Sept. 26, 2023, 2PM ET webinar.
Speakers
Dr. Mike Shepard
VP, Aerospace & Defense·3D Systems
Dr. Mike Shepard is an aerospace metallurgist, specializing in fatigue and fracture. Mike spent 16 years at Air Force Research Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio where he led the Behavior and Life Prediction Section and ultimately the Aircraft Structures Technology Branch. During his time in these organizations, he led efforts to both develop new technologies and solve field issues for turbine engines and airframe structures. He now leads 3D Systems’ Aerospace & Defense Segment, helping customers rapidly design and produce additively manufactured components for aerospace and defense applications, accelerate the certification process, and optimize their entire supply chain.
