Han's Yuwei achieves breakthrough in SLM titanium alloy printing with porosity below 0.01% using beam shaping technology.

Originally reported by ๅ—ๆž็†Š

Han's Yuwei has achieved a breakthrough in SLM titanium alloy printing, reaching a porosity level below 0.01 percent using revolutionary beam shaping technology. ๐Ÿš€ By shifting from traditional Gaussian laser profiles to optimized energy distribution, the system stabilizes the melt pool and reduces spatter significantly. This level of density ensures that 3D printed components match the fatigue resistance of forged parts, critical for high-load aerospace applications. ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ The move toward active beam control signals a systemic transition to zero-defect manufacturing, reducing reliance on costly post-processing. ๐Ÿ—๏ธ
