Abstract

Binder jetting (BJ) is one of the major metal additive manufacturing (AM) technology used for the production of intricate metal components using a layer-by-layer approach. It belongs to the more general family of processes known as powder bed fusion procedures, in which a bed of metal powder is first selectively fused together with the help of a binder and then sintered in order to produce the final metal component. Binder Jetting is the sole non-fusion-based powder bed additive manufacturing technology; this means that, unlike laser-based AM procedures, the resulting parts are completely free of residual stresses. Small to medium batch production can be cost-effective due to lower tooling and setup expenses. This analysis focuses on the capacity of some of the most important engineering materials, including titanium, Inconel and stainless steel, to produce intricate geometries with a high degree of precision and accuracy. These materials find extensive use across many applications, including defence, industry, biomedical, aerospace, and other fields.
