An R-T-B-based permanent magnet which contains R that represents at least one rare earth element essentially including Tb or Dy, T that represents Fe or at least one iron-group element essentially including Fe and Co, and B that represents boron, and further contains Cu. The total content of R is 28.35 to 29.95% by mass, inclusive, the content of Cu is 0.05 to 0.40% by mass, inclusive, and the content of B is 0.93 to 1.00% by mass, inclusive. The distribution of the concentration of Tb or Dy decreases from the outside of the R-T-B-based permanent magnet toward the inside of the R-T-B-based permanent magnet.

Methods for removing an object from powder after forming the object in an additive manufacturing apparatus are provided. The method may include: positioning a cover over a build platform with the object being positioned within a powder; removing the build platform from the additive manufacturing apparatus with the cover positioned over the build platform; and thereafter, removing the powder from the build platform to expose the object.

A method for prepares low melting point metal particles, a conductive paste and a method for preparing the conductive paste, and relates to the technical field of functional materials. The method for preparing low melting point metal particles includes providing an organic resin carrier having fluidity, adding a low melting point metal material and the organic resin carrier into a sealed container for a vacuuming operation or filling a protective gas, making a temperature in the sealed container higher than the melting point of the low melting point metal and performing dispersion by stirring, and lowering the temperature, after performing the dispersion, to be below the melting point of the low melting point metal with continuous stirring during a cooling process to obtain low melting point metal particles dispersed in the organic resin carrier. Low melting point metal particles can be effectively prepared.

A vacuum impregnation system and processes that subject a part to a vacuum, immerse the part in a polymer impregnating liquid, and apply positive pressure to the part to introduce the polymer impregnating liquid into part porosities, releasing the pressure to atmospheric pressure and solidifying the polymer impregnating liquid, preferably without an active polymerization step.

A method of forming a rod feedstock for titanium stir friction welding additive manufacturing may comprise: mixing a plurality of powdered metals comprising titanium, iron, vanadium, and aluminum to produce a powder blend; at least one of die pressing the powder blend to form a die pressed powder or continuously powder rolling the powder blend to form a die pressed powder; and sintering the powder blend to form a rod feedstock having a cross-sectional profile.

A layered modeling method for laser metal deposition (LIVID) 3D printing. The layered modeling method includes: obtaining estimated printing parameters of each layer in an entire digital model based on a process database; obtaining estimated feature points of each layer through the estimated parameters; comparing estimated feature points of each layer with feature points of a corresponding actual shape to obtain a difference in each layer; and accumulating to obtain a difference in the entire digital model to obtain corresponding printing parameters. The layered modeling method has the advantages of effectively reducing the calculation amount during data comparison and greatly saving time.
