Enhanced Additive Manufacturing Process Modeling Through CALPHAD Integration

Looking to improve the accuracy of your Additive Manufacturing (AM) process modeling? Watch the on-demand LIFT Off webinar, where Adam Hope from Thermo-Calc Software Inc. demonstrates how CALPHAD-based material property calculations enhance finite element (FE) simulations for AM.

Using real-world examples, including NIST AM-Bench test series for alloy 718, this session explores how integrating CALPHAD-generated thermophysical data into FE-based AM simulations can lead to more precise melt pool predictions, optimized processing conditions, and predictive printability maps—helping to mitigate defects and improve manufacturing efficiency.

What You'll Learn:

• Why CALPHAD tools are essential for improving FE-based AM simulations
• How to analyze chemistry and temperature effects on material behavior using CALPHAD
• How CALPHAD can generate a wide range of thermophysical material properties
• How the Thermo-Calc AM Module improves FEM simulation accuracy with CALPHAD-coupled data
