Initial development of process parameters for the 3D printing of heavy metals and special materials. Additive manufacturing (3D printing) has developed rapidly in recent years and is increasingly being used for small series production in industry. Due to the wide variety of fields of application, the material portfolio of the various 3D printing technologies is growing steadily. The particularly pronounced material flexibility of the powder-bed-based laser process LBM (Laser Beam Melting) [...]
