dc.description.abstractThe use of a directed laser bealn source to selectively sinter multiple layers of binderless metal powder for the purposes of rapid prototyping is described. The work in this paper is restricted to -325 mesh iron powder, which was sintered using a C\V 50 W Nd:YAG laser to approximately 3.5% density. A subsequent post-treatlnent was perfornled to achieve a fully dense saulple. It is envisioned that such a system can be used to manufacture functional metallic prototypes directly from CAD without part-specific tooling.en_US
