Thermoacoustic Consolidation Method for Metal Powder
Background In laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) additive manufacturing, 20–30% of metal powder feedstock becomes unusable after multiple cycles of sieving and reclaiming. This is due to deviations in particle size and geometry, which can lead to build defects and failures. These out-of-spec powders are typically stored, creating logistical, cost,...
