The primary goal of this project, Additive Manufacturing for Superalloys -- Producibility and Cost Evaluation, is to achieve cost and lead-time reductions of up to 50% for high-temperature static turbine engine components such as diffuser and turbine cases. Such components are used in virtually all aerospace gas turbine engines with the majority of these components fabricated from Alloy 718. These components are made from either forgings or castings. Each of ...
