Sandvik and Renishaw collaborate to qualify new AM materials

Global engineering company, Renishaw, is collaborating with Sandvik Additive Manufacturing to qualify new additive manufacturing (AM) materials for production applications. This encompasses a broad range of metal powders, including new alloy compositions that are optimised for the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process and which provide superior material properties.

Renishaw launches new software to improve additive manufacturing (AM) quality

At Formnext 2019 in Frankfurt, Germany (the leading global exhibition and conference on additive manufacturing), Renishaw launched InfiniAM? Sonic acoustic process monitoring software to complement its InfiniAM suite of additive manufacturing (AM) monitoring tools. InfiniAM Sonic enables engineers to detect acoustic events within the AM build chamber and turn this data into useful information about build quality. The software is the first of its kind in the AM industry.
