Zecotek, Armenian Institute Collaborate on Laser Sintering Materials

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Zecotek Displays Systems Pte. Ltd. is collaborating with the Institute of Chemical Physics of the National Academy of Sciences in Yerevan, Armenia, to create metal alloys for use in 3-D printing.

The Institute will work with Zecotek and LT-Pyrkal to fine-tune processes for fabricating metal powders from metal hydride compounds.

"The new materials will be used in the laser sintering-based 3-D printing [process] developed by Zecotek and LT-Pyrkal for prototyping and mass production," said Dr. Levon A. Tavadyan, director of the Institute of Chemical Physics.

The Institute is part of Russia’s International Science and Technology Centre, an intergovernmental organization connecting scientists from Russia, Georgia and other countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States. Zecotek Photonics Inc. develops technologies for applications in the medical, high-tech and industrial sectors.

additive manufacturing
Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, is a manufacturing process that involves creating three-dimensional objects by adding material layer by layer. This is in contrast to traditional manufacturing methods, which often involve subtracting or forming materials to achieve the desired shape. In additive manufacturing, a digital model of the object is created using computer-aided design (CAD) software, and this digital model is then sliced into thin cross-sectional layers. The...
laser sintering
Laser sintering is an additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing technology that involves using a laser to selectively fuse powdered materials, typically polymers or metals, layer by layer, to create three-dimensional objects. The process is often referred to as selective laser sintering (SLS) and is commonly used in the production of functional prototypes, end-use parts, and complex geometries. Key features of laser sintering include: Powder bed: The process starts with a thin layer of...
