Abstract

See full text

A novel process for creating porous structures via powder bed fusion additive manufacturing is provided. The process reduces the computational requirement for generation of the porous structure geometry and for processing the porous structure geometry to generate CNC code. The process provides reduced file size for CNC code and avoids large files which may exceed capacity of manufacturing machines. The process also significantly reduces the time required to sinter the porous structure on a powder bed fusion manufacturing machine.
