The Production and Subsequent Selective Laser Melting of AlSi12 Powder

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper studies the atomization of Al-based alloy AlSi12 in gas jet. Air was used as a spraying gas. The size and shape of powder particles were studied by using scanning electron microscopy and optical granulomorphometer. The obtained powder was used in selective laser melting.
