The Ural Federal University (URFU) has developed a 3D printing method using heat-resistant titanium alloys. It is planned to be used in the aerospace industry, according to the university's press service.
These alloys can withstand temperatures up to 700°C. The new technology will reduce the weight of products for aviation and space technology and increase the payload capacity of aircraft.
The new method allows creating better quality parts in less time. The process involves only one procedure — fusing a thin layer of powder with a laser. Multiple layer-by-layer applications create complex shapes.
Additive technologies are actively developing worldwide today, but there is not much development related to our materials, and it has been ongoing for about the last three to five years. This is partly due to the need for special equipment that allows printing at elevated temperatures.
With such materials, it is possible to create products for advanced gas turbine engines.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that KMZ repaired the M520 engines of the Russian border guard patrol ships.
