However, achieving consistent quality, especially at scale, remains a challenge. To meet this challenge, the standard response from industries working with mission-critical applications such as aerospace, nuclear, medical, etc., is to post-process components in Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP). Doing this eliminates any internal pores, voids, microcracks, and Lack of Fusion (LoF) defects, thereby improving mechanical properties, and enabling the highest possible component reliability for the respective applications.<\/p><p id=\"ember53\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">Achieving a substantially higher manufacturing rate, especially for the PBF-LB technology, can reduce cost significantly whilst combining the best features available in AM: To design components having small-sized features and produce these at volumes, with minimal lead time and low cost.<\/p><p id=\"ember54\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">A large part of AM research and development in the past years, particularly the PBF technology, has been focusing on improving deposition rates, using strategies such as multiplication of melting points (e.g., parallel lasers), optimization of the heat source (e.g., beam shaping), improvements to raw materials (e.g., flowability and packing) and specific deposition strategies (e.g., printing during powder spreading), etc. The combined effect of these improvements has resulted in a substantial increase in deposition rate on a Moore\u2019s law path. However, it is still considered too slow and expensive for many high-volume applications, preventing these from evolving through using basic AM possibilities.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<style>\n                .elementor-element-f425d64{\n                --padding-top: var(--webien-padding-top-default);\n                --padding-right: var(--webien-padding-right-default);\n                --padding-bottom: var(--webien-padding-bottom-default);\n                --padding-left: var(--webien-padding-left-default);\n                }\n            <\/style><div class=\"webien-container-padding-default elementor-element elementor-element-f425d64 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f425d64\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-80aeaa3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"80aeaa3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Solving the Productivity - Quality Dilemma when Increasing Processing Speed<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3c2b14d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3c2b14d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Current and available improvements in AM deposition rates could be multiplied using a combined AM + HIP manufacturing strategy (Figure 1), presenting great opportunities for cost-effective, high-volume manufacturing.

The \u201cspeed printing\u201d strategies have shown possibilities to ramp up PBF deposition rates a factor up to ten (10) times the standard printing rate, intuitively making it the way to go when setting up an AM manufacturing flow. However, this is not the case for single prototypes and low series production of components having a low ratio between printing time (actual time the printer is building the component) and the total time the printer is occupied (load\/unload, gas purge, etc.).<\/p><p id=\"ember61\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">For large-scale manufacturing however, that is when the actual build time constitutes the significant part of the total printer busy time, printing multiple components on one build plate, using multiple parallel printers and when printing large, single components that takes days or even weeks to print, it is obvious that even small improvements in deposition rate will have major impacts on the volumes possible to produce.<\/p><p id=\"ember62\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">Calculating different high-volume printing scenarios makes it possible to visualize (Figure 2) when the added benefits from using the AM + HIP scenario reach the HIP CAPEX break-even point (\u201cHIP for Free\u201d).

Shell printing (printing a gas-tight shell and leaving loose powder inside)<\/p><ul><li>Design for sufficiently smooth shell\u2013core transition to handle macro textures in melted powder\u2013sintered powder interface<\/li><li>Reproducibility in powder compaction and accurate shrinkage calculations<\/li><\/ul><p>As these factors are known with consequences and solutions investigated in the referenced research, awareness will make it possible to navigate to the correct strategy for speed\/quality optimization<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<style>\n                .elementor-element-40a7cd8{\n                --padding-top: var(--webien-padding-top-default);\n                --padding-right: var(--webien-padding-right-default);\n                --padding-bottom: var(--webien-padding-bottom-default);\n                --padding-left: var(--webien-padding-left-default);\n                }\n            <\/style><div class=\"webien-container-padding-default elementor-element elementor-element-40a7cd8 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"40a7cd8\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-65f187a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"65f187a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Conclusion<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<style>\n                .elementor-element-d05eeab{\n                --padding-top: var(--webien-padding-top-default);\n                --padding-right: var(--webien-padding-right-default);\n                --padding-bottom: var(--webien-padding-bottom-default);\n                --padding-left: var(--webien-padding-left-default);\n                }\n            <\/style><div class=\"webien-container-padding-default elementor-element elementor-element-d05eeab e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"d05eeab\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2a9a858 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2a9a858\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p id=\"ember79\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">The integration of Additive Manufacturing (AM) and Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) can represent a significant advancement in manufacturing, presenting a new level of application-specific optimization of design, productivity, and quality.
