However, traditional techniques like Ultrasonic Additive Manufacturing (UAM) and Laser Additive Manufacturing (LAM) have encountered difficulties in embedding fiber optic sensors into high-strength, high-temperature materials.Description: This innovation utilizes Electric Field-Assisted Sintering (EFAS) to incorporate sapphire fibers into high-density SS316.

However, additive manufacturing using continuous materials can provide a more efficient, cost-effective, and quality-controlled solution for creating large format, high-strength tooling.The tooling is created through an additive manufacturing process that involves using laser, high-intensity, or heat to harden a resin or polymer that is pre-wetted on the fiber before it is deposited.
