Powder Bed Fusion Powder Bed Fusion (PBF) is a 3D printing technology that uses a laser or electron beam to fuse powdered material layer by layer. It is used for metals (Selective Laser Melting, Electron Beam Melting) and plastics (Selective Laser Sintering). PBF produces high-strength, dense parts with complex geometries and fine details. It requires no support structures as the surrounding powder provides support. PBF is widely used in aerospace, automotive, and medical industries for functional prototypes, custom implants, and lightweight components. |
