Productivity enhancement of laser powder bed fusion using compensated shelled geometries and hot isostatic pressing

In laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF), the mechanical performance and especially fatigue properties of fabricated parts are significantly improved by hot isostatic pressing (HIP) as the density increases (pores are closed) and the microstructure improves. HIP ensures consistent and defect-free material...
