Abstract Scope |
While there has been substantial effort focused on additive manufacturing of structural alloys over the past couple of decades, there have been rather limited efforts on AM of functional alloys, such as magnetic materials. The present study will focus on laser additive processing of magnetic alloys using the laser engineered net shaping (LENS) process that falls under the category of directed energy deposition processes. Soft and semi-hard magnetic alloys of different types based on Fe-Co & Fe-Ni binary systems have been processed using LENS. Systematic changes in the laser-power and the travel speed have been correlated to the phase stability in the deposits of these alloys, and the consequent magnetic properties. LENS technique can also be effectively used to process compositionally-graded alloys by varying the flow rates from individual powder hoppers that comprise the feedstock for this AM process. This work shows feasibility of AM processing of soft magnetic materials. |
