Abstract
Selective metal powder sintering is a layer‐by‐layer manufacturing system producing metallic parts with good mechanical properties. Describes why an Fe‐Cu powder mixture has been selected as the basic material for the process. Deals with the powder deposition issue and proposes a mechanism which can deposit thin powder layers on top of a recipient. Shows that the powder deposition mainly depends on the powder properties. States that the required powder properties are partially compatible with the specifications set by the technology of selective sintering but that some properties are in conflict with one another. Discusses the resulting compromises needed in the powder mixtures and the required modifications to the deposition mechanism.
