Manufacturing researchers at the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have developed a laser-based technique that could broaden the range of metal alloys produced through additive manufacturing, including difficult-to-make high-entropy alloys. According to NIST, the method uses modified laser movements to actively stir molten metal during the 3D-printing process, helping different metals blend more evenly at the atomic leve…
