Really?

The EBM machine ( Fi g u re 3)
produces components from Ti6Al4V
(titanium–6 percent–aluminum 4
percent Vanadium, or Ti64) and
Ti 6 A l 4 V ELI, two “workhorse”
alloys in manufacturing. The Ti64
parts exhibit properties (see EBM
Ti6AL4V Properties sidebar, page
2 0 ) that match those of wrought
materials and exceed those of investment
castings. The parts are 100
percent dense directly from the EBM
machine,
so there is no need for
secondary infiltration processes. If
desired, the Ti64 parts can be HIP (hot
isostatic pressing) treated.
