Innovative alloy development for structural part fabrication with Additive Manufacturing Technology

 

Activities described in the present Topic shall contribute to develop, by powder technology and Additive Manufacturing process, a new aluminum alloy with performances similar to structural alloys (7000 series). With this new alloy it will be possible to produce, by Additive Manufacturing process, accurate structural parts currently produced by traditional processes.
Then the Additive Manufacturing process may allow to reduce the costs and the lead time of production and to reduce significantly the weight of the parts.
