Diode area melting of Ti6Al4V using 808 nm laser sources and variable multi-beam profiles

This paper presents an alternative to traditional laser powder bed fusion (LPBF), using an efficient, highly scalable multi-laser additive manufacturing methodology known as Diode Area Melting (DAM). DAM integrates multiple individually addressable low power fibre coupled diode lasers into a laser h...
