The present application provides a 3D printing method. The present application can provide as a method for efficiently performing 3D printing, for example, a 3D printing method capable of more rapidly and efficiently producing a three-dimensional shape precisely realized up to a fine portion.

Systems and methods for the manufacture of a solid wire using additive manufacturing techniques are disclosed. In one embodiment, a fine powdery material is sintered or melted or soldered or metallurgically bonded onto a metal strip substrate in a compacted solid form or a near-net shape (e.g., a near-net solid wire shape) before being turned into a final product through forming or drawing dies.

Disclosed are a high-throughput preparation device for metal fiber based on multi powder and a method for preparing a metal fiber using the device. The high-throughput preparation device includes a metal powder conveying system, a metal powder mixing system, a metal powder melting system and a metal fiber forming system which are connected in sequence, where the metal powder melting system includes an induction powder melting device and a laser powder melting device which are independently disposed. The method for preparing a metal fiber using the high-throughput preparation device includes four steps: powder conveying, powder mixing, melting and forming.

The invention relates to a manufacturing system and method for manufacturing a part. A negative powder forms a holder suitable to hold particles of a positive powder in proximity to one another. A connection scheme such as heating, the use of pressure and/or a binder, when employed, connects the particles to one another to form the part.

The invention relates to a device for inductive heating of a component 10, having a component placement unit for the component, an induction coil, with which the component can be heated inductively, at least in regions, an electrical lead for the induction coil, and a positioning unit, at which the induction coil is arranged in such a way that it can be brought into different relative arrangements with respect to the component placement unit by way of the positioning unit, wherein the electrical lead is guided over a contact, which is formed by contact surfaces that rest against each other and are shifted in position in relation to each other in the contact position when the induction coil is shifted in position by means of the positioning unit.

A method for forming a component includes providing a first layer of a mixture of first and second powders. The method includes determining the frequency of an alternating magnetic field to induce eddy currents sufficient to bulk heat only one of the first and second powders. The alternating magnetic field is applied at the determined frequency to a portion of the first layer of the mixture using a flux concentrator. Exposure to the magnetic field changes the phase of at least a portion of the first powder to liquid. The liquid portion couples to at least some of the second powder and subsequently solidifies to provide a composite component.
