Additive Manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing or rapid prototyping, is the process of building three dimensional structures or components from the ground up, usually layer by layer. Material characterisation requirements can differ depending on the techniques, equipment and materials used in AM. Using complementary techniques, such as advanced automated image analysis with Raman spectroscopy (Morphologi 4-ID) and high resolution Scanning Electron Microscopy with X-ray analysis (desktop Phenom SEM), allows manufacturers to identify and specify suitable metal powders, optimise AM processes and achieve consistently high quality parts.
JOIN US AT THE APICAM MEETING: June 30 to July 3, 2019
ATA Scientific is a silver sponsor at the Asia-Pacific International Conference on Additive Manufacturing (APICAM) conference to be held at RMIT University. Visit our trade table to use the new desktop Phenom Pro X Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) with integrated EDS for element identification.
