NIST Researchers Discover a New Way to Whisk Alloys Together With Lasers
- A big challenge for 3D-printing metal alloys is ensuring that the molten metal is well mixed.
- NIST researchers have developed a new approach for 3D printing that can whisk the molten metal together as it forms, making it possible to create certain high-performance alloys.
- NIST also improved how X-rays are used to study the atomic structure of metals in real time during 3D printing, allowing researchers to observe how materials change under extreme conditions.
