Wire-based electron beam additive manufacturing

摘要

1. Electron beam additive manufacturing (EBAM) has the potential to provide disruptive solutions for nuclear manufacturing. 2. EBAM can produce large-scale components as homogeneous or hybrid structures. 3. Compared to other direct energy deposition technologies EBAM may offer very competitive deposition rates, and improved quality due to the applied vacuum and superior and faster beam control through electro-magnetic beam management. 4. Ideal for highly reactive metals and refractory material.
