Abstract

The study described in this paper is a reference application of HPDC and AM simulation coupling the benefits of the two manufacturing processes. The thermo-mechanical performance of traditional diecasting insert is improved by conformal cooling channels. The SLM simulation validate the 3D printing of steel material and conformal channels. The cost-benefits analysis supports the decision to maximize the benefits and reducing costs.
