RFP FY21-21 Metal Laser Powder Bed Fusion Machine 11/23/2020 12/14/2020 Active Erin Traynum Cameron

NNL is issuing this request for information to identify sources capable of developing and building laser powder bed fusion machines with build heights of 53 inches or greater. These machines should have horizontal dimensions of at least 10" x 10" in addition to the increased build height of 53 inches. Increased build height will be used to manufacture parts requiring more space than is currently available in commercial machines.

Colorado School of Mines (Mines) requires a laser powder bed fusion (PBF) additive manufacturing machine (AM) capable of fabricating metallic articles using standard and non-standard alloys in support of a project exploring metal AM for fabricating structural components for the US defense community. ...

Added: Oct 31, 2017 12:35 pm • The machine should be a Powder Bed Fusion system, as defined by the ASTM as "An additive manufacturing process in which thermal energy selectively fuses regions of a powder bed."(REF: International Standardization Organization/ASTM 52900-15 Standard Terminology for Additive Manufacturing.) • The machine's thermal energy source should be an electron beam with a minimum of 3000 watts power.

The machine is used regularly for the removal of Additively Manufactured (AM) parts built with Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) and Directed Energy Deposition (DED) machines to conduct research in the metals-based additive manufacturing technologies for the purpose of developing and deploying advances in measurement sciences.
