Laser metal deposition manufacturing (LMD)

To find out more please visit the project website:http://www.merlin-project.eu/ or go to TWI's website: http://www.twi-global.com/news-events...

A 5 axis laser metal deposition manufacturing method is being developed by TWI for an EU-funded project which is demonstrating  drastic time reduction in the manufacture of aero engine casings.

In LMD, a weld track is formed using metal powder as a filler material which is fed, through a coaxial nozzle, to a melt pool created by a focused high-power laser beam. By traversing both the nozzle and laser, a new material layer develops with precise accuracy and user-defined properties. The application of multi-layering techniques allows 3D structures to be created.
