Experts in L-PBF

Benchmarking the future of metal 3d printing

AM-D-Model is an ESAFORM benchmark project aiming to create the data that will drive the future of Laser Powder-Bed-Fusion (L-PBF) research and innovation. By connecting an international network of collaborators AM-D-Model will create a comprehensive, open L-PBF benchmark dataset. As part of our commitment to open science, this dataset will be openly shared with the research community. Our goal is to create a universal benchmark for the L-PBF community, sparking the collaboration and innovation that will build the future of this technology.
