Objectives
Development of process layout for LMD to achieve the required characteristics with respect to material, part quality and economy
First time development of process layout for DLF to achieve the required characteristics with respect to material, part quality and economy
Development of heat treatment cycles before and after laser treatment to get microstructures and thermal stress fields that meet the mechanical properties
Determination of static and dynamic mechanical properties of the laser-processed and heat-treated samples together with correlation of these properties with microstructure and stress fields
First time workout of acceptance plus a non-destructive test (NDT) inspection criteria for LMD and DLF process (correlations between tolerable defects, microstructure, mechanical properties and process parameters)
Support of the process development by simulation of temperature, stress fields and microstructure formation to predict process parameters and build-up strategies
Development of equipment for LMD and DLF processes, such as processing heads, including powder feeding nozzles and shielding gas units for 3D processing, process chamber for DLF, software for CAD/CAM integration, and sensors and systems for on-line process control
