Topic 02
Additive manufacturing of CP-Titanium, titanium alloys and titanium aluminides with a focus on research, development and industrial applications is discussed in this topic. The topic addresses the development and the optimisation of powder bed-based titanium additive manufacturing and direct energy deposition processes. Well-established and sophisticated post-processing operations to improve the quality of additively manufactured parts and repair technologies will be discussed in this topic as well.
