Scandium Impact on the Additive Manufacturing of Aluminium Alloys

The future of Additive Manufacturing lies in part production at scale. Innovation must, therefore, focus on how to reduce part cost and improve performance. Unlike other mannufacturing processes, wight is time in AM - and time is money; raw material costs take a back seat when it comes to overall part cost. Here, Jonathan Meyer (APWORKS) and John Barnes (Metal Powder Works) explore the case for scandium-based aluminium alloys for AM from both technical and economic perspectives.
