Abstract

Abstract The progress of additive manufacturing (AM) within the last few decades has been phenomenal, progressing from a polymeric technique to a method for manufacturing metallic aerospace components. We take a look at various technological advances which have helped paved the way for this growth, focussing on European input, as currently, 54% of AM machines are sold by European manufacturers (Wohlers, Campbell, Diegel, Kowen, Mostow, and Fidan, 2022, “Wohlers Report 2022: 3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing Global State of the Industry,” Wohlers Associates, ASTM International, Fort Collins, Colo., Washington, DC). We take deep dives into several critical topics including sensing and monitoring, preheating, and multi-laser technology and illustrate how these develop from research ideas into industrial products. Finally, an outlook is provided, highlighting the topics currently gaining research traction, and which are expected to be the next key breakthroughs.

欧洲激光粉末床金属熔合技术进展简史

在过去的几十年里，增材制造(AM)的进步是惊人的，从聚合物技术发展到制造金属航空航天部件的方法。我们来看看为这一增长铺平道路的各种技术进步，重点关注欧洲的投入，因为目前，54%的增材制造机器由欧洲制造商销售(Wohlers, Campbell, Diegel, Kowen, Mostow和Fidan, 2022，“Wohlers报告2022:3D打印和增材制造全球行业状况，”Wohlers Associates, ASTM International, Fort Collins，科罗拉多州，华盛顿特区)。我们将深入探讨几个关键主题，包括传感和监测，预热和多激光技术，并说明这些如何从研究想法发展到工业产品。最后，展望了当前获得研究牵引力的主题，以及预计将成为下一个关键突破的主题。
