| Abstract | Laser consolidation (LC) is a novel additive manufacturing process being developed by the National Research Council Canada (NRC) at its London facility. LC offers unique capabilities in the production of net-shape functional metallic parts requiring no further post-machining. NRC’s LC technology has achieved dimensional accuracy of up to +/−0.05 mm with a surface finish up to 1 μm Ra (depending on the materials used in the manufacturing process). The LC process differs from other additive manufacturing technologies by its high precision deposition system that can build functional parts or features on top of existing parts using various high performance materials and alloys. In this paper, laser consolidation of various high performance materials (such as Ni-base super alloys and Ti-6Al-4V alloy) will be discussed and the examples will be given on building complex functional components and repairing parts otherwise unrepairable for gas turbine and other applications. |
