Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing (CSAM) is a category of additive manufacturing that utilizes high-pressure gas to accelerate particles of powdered material to supersonic speeds. These particles impact and bond with a substrate, forming a solid layer of material. CSAM offers several advantages over traditional manufacturing techniques, including the ability to produce high-quality coatings, repair damaged parts, and create near-net-shape components. In this category, you can find articles, resources, and information related to the latest advancements, challenges, and potential solutions in the field of CSAM.
Introduction Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing (CSAM) is a modern production technique. It creates complex metal structures without traditional methods. CSAM uses high-speed metal particle acceleration and deposition. Unlike 3D printing and laser sintering, it does not rely on melting. This method uses high-pressure gas to accelerate metal particles to speeds greater than 1000 m/s. Particles…
