[0003] Laser additive manufacturing technology is to lay powder on a powder bed, and then a laser beam melts or sinters the metal powder on the powder bed according to the track path given by the three-dimensional model, and the layers are stacked to form a solid. Laser additive manufacturing technology has the characteristics of not being limited by the structure of the part, and is one of the key technologies to solve the problem of difficult preparation of complex structure plates such as bionics and three-dimensional structures.
[0004] Stamping forming refers to the method of applying external force to plate, strip, pipe and profiled material by a press and a die to produce plastic deformation or separation, so as to obtain a workpiece (stamping part) with the required shape and size.
