Forming ability of the WC-based ceramic metal composites with different Fe-based binders by unique laser beam modulation by H.S. Maurya, K. Juhani, F. Sergejev, R. Kumar, A. Hussain, K.G. Prashanth

“…A study of crack restraining and formability of WC composite parts with different Fe-based binder compositions has been conducted by adapting Laser beam modulation (LBM). As a result of optimizing the laser beam with variations in laser power peaks (48, 60, and 72 Watt) and constant exposure times for each laser beam profile, the melt pool temperature was regulated, primary cracks in the parts were reduced and this resulted in the fabrication of the parts with reduced process defects such as internal thermal cracks. …”
