ORNL scientists develop technique to strengthen large-scale 3D prints by reducing porosity
Researchers at the US Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have developed a vacuum-assisted extrusion method that significantly reduces internal porosity in large-scale 3D-printed polymer parts, a development the lab says could improve part strength and accelerate industrial adoption of additive manufacturing.
