摘要:
A method for eutectic alloy bonding of foreign parts during the additive manufacturing process includes the following steps: designing a component for additive manufacturing printing which will include a foreign part such that the foreign part is bonded to the component via an eutectic alloy solder and disposed within a recess; starting to print the component using an additive manufacturing printer; stopping the additive manufacturing printer at the point where the foreign part and the eutectic alloy solder will be placed; placing the foreign part and solder into the recess; restarting the additive manufacturing printer such that the component is completed; and, heat treating the component such that the eutectic alloy solder forms a secure bond between the foreign part and the completed component.
