On the Challenges toward Realization of Functionally Graded Structures by Electron Beam Melting—Fe-Base Shape Memory Alloy and Stainless Steel
(ASTM International, 2020-09-22)
In the present study, an iron-manganese-aluminum-nickel (Fe-Mn-Al-Ni) shape memory alloy was processed on an austenitic steel (AISI 304) build platform by electron beam melting in order to study the feasibility of realizing functionally graded structures consisting of two different materials (i.e., a functional and a structural material). Compression specimens consisting of the processed shape memory alloy and the austenitic build platform in equal parts were investigated. The microstructure was analyzed in the ...

Microstructural and Mechanical Properties of AISI 4140 Steel Processed by Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion Analyzed Using Miniature Samples
(ASTM International, 2022-02-26)
The present study reports on the identification of an adequate process window for electron beam powder bed fusion (E-PBF) of AISI 4140 steel. For characterization, only miniature samples were used. It is clearly revealed that, for comparison and evaluation of different conditions, the use of such small samples is absolutely sufficient, even under fatigue loading. The initial E-PBF as-built condition is compared with conventionally heat-treated conditions (i.e., normalized as well as quenched and tempered). Based on ...

The Effect of Injection Molding Parameters on Microcellular Foam Morphology
(2021)
Microcellular foam injection molding with physical blowing agent (MuCell®) delivers monetary benefits, processing advantages and freedom of product design by reducing shrinkage. In conjunction with an advanced mold technology, so-called Pull and Foam method, there is great potential in controlling the foam structure of the component locally. In this study, Polycarbonate (PC) components were produced with nearly compact outer skin and a closed cellular core. To understand the relation between processing parameters and ...
