Abstract

Additive Layer Manufacturing (ALM), also known as 3D printing technology process of manufacturing that refers models parts from wire, powder, or sheets in a process that produced layer-by-layer from computer aided manufacturing (CAM). This process enables to produce components via solid-state joining or melting process. In this paper, these methods for producing metal tool components production through processing study of ALM methods as heat transfer, processing defects, solidification, mechanical properties, solid-state precipitation and post-processing metallurgical study. The various metal ALM techniques are analysed and compared with analysis of their strengths and limitations. Most of the metal alloys fabricated and produced and developed for production of metal tool components, but recent development of ALM shows as a path for the producing and development of new materials for additive layer manufacturing processes.
