Provided are a laminate shaped article made of a maraging steel and having excellent toughness, a method for manufacturing the same, and a metal powder for laminate shaping. The laminate shaped article is made of a maraging steel comprising 0.1-5.0 mass % of Ti. When sis is performed on concentration distribution of Ti in a cross section parallel to a lamination direction of the above laminate shaped article, a length of a linear Ti-rich portion having a Ti concentration B of (1.5×A) or more with respect to an average Ti concentration A in the cross section is 15 μm or less. In addition, the method for manufacturing the laminate shaped article uses a metal powder made of a maraging steel comprising 0.1-5.0 mass % of Ti, and a heat source output is set to 50-330 W and a scanning speed is set to 480-3000 mm/sec during the laminate shaping.

An embodiment of the present disclosure is directed to a method of additive manufacturing. The method comprises: i) forming a first layer, the first layer comprising at least one material chosen from an article material, a support structure material and a fracturable material; ii) forming an additional layer on the first layer, the additional layer comprising at least one material chosen from the article material, the support structure material and the fracturable material; and iii) repeating ii) one or more times to form a three-dimensional build comprising an article and at least one support structure attached to the article at an interface, the interface comprising the fracturable material formed during one or more of i), ii) or iii), the fracturable material being formed by exposing a print material with a gas reactant. A three-dimensional build is also disclosed.

A metallic glass part is provided. The metallic glass part includes an alloy core and a metallic glass shell surrounding the alloy core. The alloy core provides compressive force on the metallic glass shell at an interface between the alloy core and the metallic glass shell.

An additive manufacturing device is an additive manufacturing device manufacturing an additively manufactured article by melting or sintering layered powder by partially applying energy to the powder. The additive manufacturing device includes a powder holding unit holding the layered powder, a heating unit preheating the powder held by the powder holding unit, a reflection unit where a reflective film including a reflective surface is disposed, the reflective surface reflecting radiant heat radiated from an object including at least one of the powder and the additively manufactured article to the powder holding unit side, and a reflective surface update unit disposing a new reflective surface in the reflection unit by moving the reflective film.

A flexible manifold adapted for use on a plate-fin heat exchanger core, the flexible manifold including a plurality of individual layers configured to be metallurgically joined to respective ones of a plurality of layers of the plate-fin heat exchanger core, and further including a first end with at least one port adapted to receive or discharge a medium, a second end distal from the first end, adapted to transfer the medium to or from the plurality of individual layers, a plurality of horizontal guide vanes defining the plurality of individual layers, and a plurality vertical members positioned within each of the individual layers. The flexible manifold is configured to be mechanically and thermally compliant, and can be metallurgically joined to the heat exchanger core by brazing or welding.

An additive manufacturing system with a build chamber has a halide vessel that generates a halide gas and a dissociation chamber with a filament. Metal condensate is contacted with the halide gas to form a gaseous metal halide compound. The gaseous metal halide compound is decomposed to deposit metal on the filament. In an example, titanium reacts with gaseous iodine to form gaseous titanium tetraiodide.

Techniques of additive deposition for producing articles of manufacture are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, an article of manufacture can include a substrate having a surface and composed of a metal or metal alloy and multiple layers of composite materials deposited on the surface of the substrate. The composite materials is composed of the metal or metal alloy and a ceramic material. The individual composite materials at each of the multiple layers has a composition with a corresponding ratio between the metal or metal alloy material and the ceramic material. The ratios between the metal or metal alloy material and the ceramic material change along at least one dimension of the article of manufacture.

In some examples, a system receives measurement data obtained based on a non-destructive imaging of an identifiable structure within a three-dimensional (3D) object formed using an additive manufacturing machine, the identifiable structure formed based on control of a characteristic of a build material of a first internal object portion relative to a characteristic of the build material in a second internal object portion, the first and second internal object portions being within the 3D object. The system determines, based on the measurement data, a deviation of a physical property of the identifiable structure from a target physical property, and outputs information indicating the deviation.
