Porous Structures Produced By Additive Layer Manufacturing

A method of forming a tubular structure including a first tube and a second tube. The steps of the method include first successively depositing layers of a first material and at least partially melting at least a portion of each deposited layer of the first material at predetermined locations to for...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method of forming a tubular structure including a first tube and a second tube. The steps of the method include first successively depositing layers of a first material and at least partially melting at least a portion of each deposited layer of the first material at predetermined locations to form the first tube. Second, successively depositing layers of a second material and at least partially melting at least a portion of each deposited layer of the second material at additional predetermined locations to form the second tube, wherein the second tube is attached to the first tube at an intersection. Additionally, at least partially melting steps include forming portions of a plurality of segments, and the first tube and the second tube share segments of the plurality of segments at their intersection.
