The DED additive manufacturing process
A3DM magazine explains the DED (directed energy deposition) additive manufacturing process.
« DED or directed energy deposition additive manufacturing technology is one of the seven additive manufacturing processes defined by ASTM International and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). This 3D printing technique enables metal, polymer or even ceramic parts to be produced layer by layer. In this process, focused thermal energy is used to fuse materials by melting them as they are deposited. Explanation… »
