Additively manufactured titanium artworks

Titanium and titanium alloys are advanced metallic materials uniquely suited to the manufacture of long-lasting artworks. Additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing offers unprecedented design freedom and manufacturability for the manufacture of intricate and complex designs of artworks. This chapter discusses a range of selected examples of titanium artworks additively manufactured by selective laser melting (SLM) and selective electron beam melting (SEBM) processes. It is shown that additive manufacturing by either SLM or SEBM has enabled the design and manufacture of titanium artworks with remarkable fine features.
