Powder Bed Selective Laser Processing of Alumina: Scanning Strategies Investigation

Abstract: Powder Bed Selective Laser Processing (PBSLP) is a promising technique for the additive manufacturing of alumina. For the method’s success, PBSLP process parameters such as laser power, scanning speed, hatching distance, and scanning strategies need to be investigated. This paper focuses on studying the scanning strategies’ effects on the PBSLP of alumina numerically and experimentally. Scanning strategies such as linear with different orientation, concentric, and islands were investigated. A numerical model w… Show more

“…This is believed to be a severe issue for printing ceramics and composites due to their low thermal shock resistance (Zhang et al, 2022). Researchers have studied numerous individual aspects that affect the LPBF method, such as pre-heating, the surrounding temperature, scan speed, hatch distance, beam power, intervals duration, scanning strategy (orthogonal, islands, zigzag pattern, and many others), the effects of the non-steady-state melt regimes in the scanning tracks, the role of pores on crack initiation, laser pre-heating of ceramic material, powder particle density, and so on (Yamakov et al, 2002;Wilkes et al, 2013;Schwentenwein and Homa, 2015;Wang et al, 2017;Liu et al, 2020;Waqar et al, 2021b;Gokcekaya et al, 2021;Abdelmoula et al, 2022;Sun et al, 2022;Wang et al, 2022). Directly manufacturing highly dense ceramics with LPBF might result in fractures and other manufacturing flaws (Yamakov et al, 2002;WIPO, 2018).…”

“…The alumina samples were printed and used for the model validation. Based on our previous study [ 29 ], it was recommended to use a low scanning speed with alumina to minimize the laser beam inertia effect on the powder particles. Therefore, a scanning speed of 200 mm/s was considered.…”

“…Nowadays, the AM of ceramics is undergoing rapid developments, whether in terms of feedstock or the application of AM techniques. Many studies have been conducted on the AM of ceramic materials using various techniques such as binder jetting, extrusion, and PBSLP [ 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ]. Among the techniques used, PBSLP is regarded as the most suitable for ceramic materials because it can produce a dense structure with more accurate shape dimensions and without the need for initial powder or post-treatment operations to achieve the final shape [ 30 ].…”
