Abstract:Selective laser melting has the potential to be applied into hydraulic pipelines manufacturing because it can realize the forming of flow channels with arbitrary direction and curvature. Due to the stacking of layers, selective laser melting still has many limitations while processing complex flow channels. In particular, the manufacturing of overhanging structures with circular cross sections needs to use internal supports to prevent surface collapse, which is challenging to be removed. Therefore, it is neces… Show more
