Problems solved by technology

However, further studies have shown that the current process for processing lattice structures based on additive manufacturing technology is mainly selective laser melting (Selective Laser Melting, SLM), which has exposed the following deficiencies in practice: 1. , this method adopts the method of spreading powder to carry out regional melting with laser, but materials such as aluminum and copper alloy have low absorption rate of laser light, resulting in unmelted phenomenon and unfused defects in the process of regional melting
At the same time, the surface of powder materials such as aluminum and copper alloys is easily oxidized, which significantly reduces the wettability of the material, causing the surface of the molten metal to
