Problems solved by technology

[0006] 3D printing technology uses laser selective melting and sintering powder, so it has special requirements on powder fluidity, oxygen content and particle size distribution. Therefore, although the above-mentioned new titanium alloy TA12 powder can be used for casting, it is directly applied to 3D printing There is still a problem with forming
In addition, the physical properties of the elements in the alloy are quite different. Under the action of high-energy laser, the elements with low melting point are easy to cause composition segregation due to evaporation, which affects the performance of parts, etc.
