Design and Fabrication of an Oscillating Tool for Powder Spreading in Metal Additive Manufacturing

Powder spreading methods for metal additive manufacturing processes, such as laser powder bed fusion and binder jetting, are intended to produce thin, dense, and uniform powder layers in order for finished parts to have satisfactory material and mechanical properties. The spreading of fine powders i...
