Graded porous structures from the metal 3D printer
How do you make a metal component permeable without drilling it afterwards or equipping it with filters? Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology ILT have developed a method which can be used to additively and precisely process metallic materials so that they not only are locally permeable or dense – with graded transitions between the states – but can be manufactured reproducible and in a single production step. Fraunhofer ILT will be showcasing the new LPBF applications at Laser World of Photonics 2025 in Munich from June 24 to 27, 2025.
