3D-printed metal samples are about 4 inches wide. Printed and heat-treated samples are mounted on a pedestal and exposed to a neutron beam to analyze residual stresses, or irregularities such as cracks or voids, created during the manufacturing process.

Neutrons Help Improve 3D-Printed Superalloys for Applications in Extreme Environments

Neutron experiments revealed microscopic details about a special 3D-printed superalloy that could potentially reduce component costs.

Microtomographic 3D snapshots of complex structure of thermal cracks and air bubbles in an additive manufactured metal during the 3D printing process.

3D Printing One of the Strongest Stainless Steels

In a breakthrough for industrial manufacturing, scientists reproduced one of the world’s toughest materials using 3D printing.
