Video: 3D printing to rapidly create and assess alloys of varying composition
A 3D printer is allowing researchers at Ames Laboratory to rapidly create and assess alloys of varying composition to find just the right combination to produce materials with the desired characteristics.
Ames Laboratory scientist Ryan Ott talks about the system which uses a laser to melt powders desposited on a substrate.
