The advent of additive manufacturing (AM) has dramatically shifted the manufacturing sector
conceptualization, design, and creation of products. AM can facilitate the production of …

Heat treatment has a direct effect on the microstructure and mechanical properties of laser
cladding coatings. To investigate the influence of heat treatment on the microstructure and …

The extreme versatility of additive manufacturing (AM) as processing technology results in
“AMed pieces” with intrinsic characteristics linked to the shaping route followed, which are …

For several years, researchers have been exploring the use of the binder jetting powder-
based additive manufacturing process to produce WC-Co hardmetals. Compared to other …

In this work, hot isostatic pressing (HIP) and HIP followed by hot rolling (HIP+ HR) were
employed to process high-performance Mosingle bond10Nb alloys, respectively. The …

The preparation of WC-Co cemented carbides by laser-based additive manufacturing (AM)
is challenging, as the resulting products are often plagued by crack and pore defects. In this …

Cemented carbide (WC-Co), the widely used tool-die material, is difficult to be machined by
conventional and nonconventional techniques. This inspired exploring additive …

In this work, we propose the use of 3D printing to make molds for pressing cemented carbide
compacts. The fused material extrusion technique was used to make solid molds from …

DryLyte® Technology is an effective surface finish technique, which follows the same
traditional electrolytic cell principle, but uses an electrolytic solid non-conductive medium …
