    About this ebook

    Additive Manufacturing of Titanium Alloys: State of the Art, Challenges and Opportunities provides alternative methods to the conventional approach for the fabrication of the majority of titanium components produced via the cast and wrought technique, a process which involves a considerable amount of expensive machining.

    In contrast, the Additive Manufacturing (AM) approach allows very close to final part configuration to be directly fabricated minimizing machining cost, while achieving mechanical properties at least at cast and wrought levels. In addition, the book offers the benefit of significant savings through better material utilization for parts with high buy-to-fly ratios (ratio of initial stock mass to final part mass before and after manufacturing).

    As titanium additive manufacturing has attracted considerable attention from both academicians and technologists, and has already led to many applications in aerospace and terrestrial systems, as well as in the medical industry, this book explores the unique shape making capabilities and attractive mechanical properties which make titanium an ideal material for the additive manufacturing industry.

    • Includes coverage of the fundamentals of microstructural evolution in titanium alloys
    • Introduces readers to the various Additive Manufacturing Technologies, such as Powder Bed Fusion (PBF) and Directed Energy Deposition (DED)
    • Looks at the future of Titanium Additive Manufacturing
    • Provides a complete review of the science, technology, and applications of Titanium Additive Manufacturing (AM)

      Additive Manufacturing of Titanium Alloys - Bhaskar Dutta

      Society.

      Preface

      The past few years have shown significant advances in the additive manufacturing (AM) technologies leading to the production of fully functional parts using titanium and its alloys. While powder bed fusion technologies offer the ability to build hollow near-net shapes with finer resolution, directed energy based technologies offer the ability to add features on existing parts and remanufacture/repair damaged parts, as well as building parts directly from CAD data. Most of the studies in the industry reveal that the mechanical properties of AM material are as good as or better than the conventionally fabricated titanium alloys. Selection of the right AM technology, along with proper design optimization, can lead to very significant savings through greatly reduced buy-to-fly ratios, overall weight reduction, and scrap reduction. Additionally, these technologies offer design freedom that conventional manufacturing does
