Abstract

The need for less weight and high-performance materials in manufacturing industries has continuously led to the development of lightweight materials through the use of advanced additive manufacturing (AM). The race of lightweight and high-performance metals continue to evolve as this continuously provides better understanding about connection existing between material processing, microstructural development, and material properties. AM technique is an interesting manufacturing process that is employed in production of engineering components with improved properties. The choice of titanium and its alloys in structural applications are attributed to their superior strength-to-weight ratio and high corrosion resistance. This chapter looked at different additive manufacturing (AM) techniques developed for the processing of lightweight metals, their strengths, and limitations. The chapter also looked at the role and contribution of AM to the 4th industrial revolution, processing, and application of titanium aluminide for high temperature applications.

增材制造(AM)

制造业对轻量化和高性能材料的需求，通过使用先进的增材制造(AM)，不断推动轻量化材料的发展。随着人们对材料加工、微观结构发展和材料性能之间的联系有了更好的理解，轻质和高性能金属的竞赛也在继续发展。增材制造技术是一种有趣的制造工艺，用于生产具有改进性能的工程部件。在结构应用中选择钛及其合金是由于其优越的强度重量比和高耐腐蚀性。本章介绍了用于加工轻质金属的不同增材制造(AM)技术，以及它们的优势和局限性。本章还介绍了增材制造对第四次工业革命的作用和贡献，以及高温应用中铝化钛的加工和应用。
