Reference number : GC-2017-Q1-00073, amendment number : , agreement type : G, recipient legal name : Marin, Gheorghe (Cégep de Trois-Rivières), recipient country : CA, recipient province : nan, recipient city : Quebec|Québec, recipient postal code : nan, program name english : Engage Grants for Colleges, program name french : Subventions d'engagement partenarial pour les collèges, program purpose english : This project aims to develop the parameters for the production of high performance parts using aluminum_x000D_
A357 powders by directed energy deposition (DED) additive manufacturing and to evaluate the optimal_x000D_
powder size range for the process. Using the high strength A357 powder alloy developed by Equispheres, the_x000D_
study will consist in developing the DED parameters for the A357 alloy and the evaluation of the properties_x000D_
(mechanical, chemical and microstructural) of the products developed as a function of those parameters._x000D_
Furthermore, the effect of the powder size on the optimal build parameters and mechanical properties will be_x000D_
evaluated within the project to take full advantage of Equispheres proprietary atomizing process, which can_x000D_
produce very controlled range of powder granulometry., program purpose french : This project aims to develop the parameters for the production of high performance parts using aluminum_x000D_
