Sound Waves Drive 3D Printing of Metals (.PDF Download)

    Dec. 8, 2015

    Fabrisonic uses ultrasonic additive manufacturing (UAM), which is a solid-state 3D-printing process for metals that uses sound waves to merge layers of metal foil. The process produces true metallurgical bonds with full density and works with a variety of metals, including but not limited to aluminum, copper, stainless steel, and titanium...
