Main Characteristics: - Good buildability
- Good mechanical properties
- High productivity
- Heat treatment possible to improve ductility
Typical Applications: Higher productivity process can be used where mechanical requirements are less demanding but where cost-efficiency is needed. Heat treatment can be used to affect mechanical properties.Heat Treatment: Solution annealing of 30 minutes in 530 °C followed by immediate quenching to water. Artificial aging of 6 hours in 165 °C followed by cooling in air. Information provided by EOS GmbH (Electro Optical Systems). |
