Rapid.Tech 3D Konferenz 2024
In the 20th year of the Rapid.Tech 3D, taking place in Erfurt, the additive manufacturing department at LKT took the opportunity to present recent work in the fields of laser-based powder bed fusion and highly filled metal feedstocks for fused filament fabrication.
Samuel Schlicht presented his work on the support-free, cold powder bed fusion of polypropylene, focussing on the interaction of geometry- and process-related influences on emerging part properties, contributing to LKT’s comprehensive knowledge on sophisticated, sustainable powder bed processes.
Complementing these process-related contributions, Thomas Forstner presented a poster on the influence of the addition of waxes on the processing behavior of metal-filled feedstock materials, applicable for the manufacturing of geometrically complex parts from metal alloys through polymer-based processes.
The LKT thanks the organizers of Rapid.Tech3D and its scientific commitee and looks forward to next year’s event!
