This webinar will feature a discussion among additive experts and researchers about Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing (CSAM) and how it can be applied to complex alloys to produce large, cast-equivalent metal parts. Recent applications with nickel aluminum bronze, copper nickel, and steels will be covered along with input from guest contributor Samuel Bedard, Cold Spray Research Engineer at EWI.
Overview
This webinar will feature a discussion among additive experts and researchers about Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing (CSAM) and how it can be applied to complex alloys to produce large, cast-equivalent metal parts.
Feedstock, gases, and equipment are all variables that must be considered in working with new materials; CSAM affords both flexibility and speed to make it easier to iterate on these materials that meet specific requirements.
Contributors will talk about several applications to walk attendees through their work, including development of nickel aluminum bronze and copper nickel in conjunction with the U.S. Navy's NAVSEA program.
Key Takeaways
- Gain a basic understanding of the advantages of CSAM
- Understand why CSAM is something to consider to produce applications with complex alloys
- Learn how to proceed in working with SPEE3D or partners on exploring new materials
