Effective Platform Heating for Laser Powder Bed Fusion of an Al-Mn-Sc-Based Alloy

Platform heating is one of the effective strategies used in laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) to avoid cracking during manufacturing, especially when building relatively large-size components, as it removes significant process-induced residual strains. In this work, we propose a novel and simple method...
