Title:
Development of a holistic approach for the simulation of the powder bed additive manufacturing process
Agreement Number:
972124
Agreement Value:
$221,100.00
Agreement Date:
May 7, 2021 - Jul 29, 2024
Description:
Metal additive manufacturing (AM), and more particularly the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process, is a very fast-growing technological field. An integral part of the Industry 4.0 concept, AM technology fully embraces the digital manufacturing vision. The development and implementation of AM on new applications are generally slowed down due to the complexity of the physical phenomena and the lack of high-fidelity reliable models. The objective of this project is to develop a reliable digital modeling platform faithfully representing the entire process to reduce the cost of development of new parts (or new materials) which currently relies on a laborious and expensive experimental approach. This project is based on the
complementarity of strong expertise shared between the NRC and the academic partners and the expected results should enable industrial partners who are members of the METALTec industrial research group to increase their competitiveness in the field of AM or to accelerate the adoption of the LPBF process.
