技术领域technical field

Another kind of metal 3D printing equipment achieves additive manufacturing by melting metal filaments and then bonding molten metal together. On the one hand, the contact with air on the surface of the molten metal will produce oxide scales, and doping into the printed parts will affect the performance of the formed parts.
