Integrity Assurance to Determine Additive Manufacturing Safety for Critical Components
Components manufactured via additive manufacturing processes are lighter and stronger than conventional parts, but because of the way they are made the standard methods for assuring their quality cannot be used. This is a particular problem for safety-critical components in industries like nuclear and aerospace. READ MOREPodcast: Testing Additively Manufactured Medical Devices
