3D-Printing Titanium | How hard can it be?

Ойын-сауық

How hard is metal 3d-printing compared to regular home pla-plastic printers? In this video you can see metal 3d-printer that can print titanium, aluminium, gold, silver, different steel alloys and other metals. The printer works by melting fine metal powder with powerful laser.

    The toxicity of titanium dust is really not that serious. I wouldn't go out of my way to breathe it or anything but it's definitely not beryllium or plutonium levels scary. It's a highly biocompatible metal and mainly just an irritant for inhalation. The biggest risk is explosion and fire due to its high pyrophoricity.

    Some years ago, I went to watch a Formula 1 race and the team was using one of these to print some parts. I'd also been working with a friend to look at the potential to make custom medical implants from substances like coral and titanium (not combined!). Seemed doable, although growing coral was a bit more challenging than just ordering Ti powder. But sadly didn't progress due to a combination of cost, plus paperwork & insurance for medical applications. Had a few orthopedic surgeons who wanted it though, and AFAIK it's now something a few companies are doing.
