Printing mechanisms to support the supports: A dual-scale heat dissipation framework governing printing process, heat transfer, and forming performance in laser powder bed fusion
Key Points
Forming performance is significantly affected by heat dissipation during the printing process, influencing overall quality.
The study identifies two distinct scales of heat transfer in laser powder bed fusion, which critically affect thermal management strategies.
Thermal modeling techniques were employed to analyze heat transfer in the printing process and its effects on formability.
This dual-scale framework highlights the need for optimized thermal management approaches to improve printing outcomes.
