“…Case studies for biomedical parts have demonstrated AM bone replacements for jaws, 230 CoCr alloys using SLM (displacing CNC machining), but may require annealing to achieve ideal microstructure. 232 At a market size of $11•2 billion in 2011, the dental prosthetics market is growing and is a significant application area for metal AM. 233 The application of mesh structures is attractive for biomedical parts 48 and also has applications for other uses, such as lithium ion batteries.…”

“…In inkjet printing, micrometer sized droplets of an ink (typically a photopolymer) are dispensed also using 3-axis stages 10 . Laser melting and sintering 11 , on the other hand, typically do not dispense a material from a nozzle; rather, the high temperature of the laser light is used to either sinter or weld specific regions in a powder bed while a stage moves up or down and the material is added layer-by-layer, thus generating a 3D structure. Lastly, light or lithography printing (which often also use lasers as the light source) use photopolymers that are kept in a Z-axis controlled vat, and the 3D structure results from direct exposition of the polymer to light as the vat or sample holder moves up or down 3 .…”

“…One very important manufacturing step in SLS technologies is the annealing process, which is the heating of the metal object under argon atmosphere above the critical temperature. After maintaining a stable temperature, the object is allowed to cool down [32,33]. This procedure reduces internal stress, softens and homogenizes the object, and increases its ductility.…”

“…This procedure reduces internal stress, softens and homogenizes the object, and increases its ductility. However, both temperature and atmospheric pressure parameters directly influence the hardness and microstructure of the object and therefore have to be meticulously controlled [32,33]. If executed properly, SLS-manufactured metal frameworks match the required precision for clinical applications, (i.e.…”
