PROGRESS IN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

The article analyses the current trends in the development of additive manufacturing technologies. In recent years, the development of additive technologies is one of the industry priorities. Additive technologies, first of all, make it possible to implement effectively any design and engineering ideas in high-tech industries, such as aircraft construction, engine and engine building, rocket engineering, modern electronic devices, etc. The expansion of the range of materials for additive technologies will facilitate their introduction into mass production. Meanwhile, the development of breakthrough scientific and technical solutions in the field of additive technologies is impossible without new powder materials. Currently, there is an evident fundamental problem, namely, the lack of comprehensive scientific research aimed at developing new powder materials for additive technologies, adapting these materials to the requirements of modern additive manufacturing machines and studying the properties of products obtained by additive technology with various variations of technical parameters.
