4vanadium (Ti6Al4V).
nickel alloy are used in the petrochemical industry where durability and corrosion
resistance are important characteristics.
The system builds parts up to approximately 8 x 8 x 7 in. (200 x 200 x 180 mm), with a layer
thickness range of 0.002 to 0.008 in. (0.05 - 0.2 mm).
Advantages
EBM parts often feature complex geometries offering substantial weight savings, .
Electron beam melting produces parts with properties similar to wrought parts and better
than those of cast parts
The electron beam melting process reduces residual stresses in a variety of ways .
During printing, residual stress is reduced by preheating the print bed and by the heating
of the material before it is struck by the electron beam
.lower residual stress is also a function of the process’ high build temperatures and
slower cool-down rates compared to laser-based AM processes.
Density: Up to 99.9%
EBM allows even better microstructural control than many conventional processes.
Disadvantages ,
the availability of materials is limited and the process is rather slow and expensive
The surface of a part printed with electron beam melting often requires post-processing,
while the smooth surfaces of DMLM-produced parts do not typically require much post-
processing.
Extremely expensive
