Driven by… Advanced Tools for Rapid Qualification (ATRQ) While the technical maturity of AM technology has progressed rapidly, the tools and data necessary to give engineering authorities the same confidence in the quality and performance of AM parts as those that are traditionally manufactured has been lacking. AM parts must at least meet the same quality requirements as traditionally produced parts for a given application, but current approaches to qualification and certification are tailored to high volume production with well-established manufacturing processes. Additive manufacturing is more agile, does not require extensive tooling, and is often used to produce single or small lots of parts for which an expensive and time-consuming certification process is counter-productive. Thus, the DoD has identified a need to develop the capability to rapidly qualify AM processes and materials at lower costs than can currently be achieved. *Proposal teams are strongly encouraged to actively partner with DoD organizations during the proposal writing stage.

Driven by… Topic Area 1 - Surrogate Damage Generation for LPBF Defects Problem Statement: Powder Bed Fusion Additive Manufacturing (PBFAM) has demonstrated the ability to repeatably create geometrically complex parts from a number of useful metal alloys. PBFAM process defects include: lack of fusion defects, keyhole porosity, clusters of aligned porosity, powder short feed, and delamination's. Objective: Identify processes and methods to introduce reproducible, controlled, and representative defects into specific locations of otherwise high quality AM material. Factors that must be defined and controlled for these surrogate defects include but are not limited to flaw type, flaw size, flaw orientation, and flaw location. Material systems of interest include: nickel super alloys, high strength steels and stainless steels, and aerospace grade titanium’s.

Driven by… Topic Area 2 - Degradation of Polymer Parts Deployed in Harsh Environments Problem Statement: Limitations of materials subjected to the demanding environments seen in-theater and in- service have constrained the adoption of novel technologies and solutions such as AM that could increase operational readiness and capability. Objective: Quantify material property debits and service life estimates for polymer-based additive materials and processes and provide DoD personnel with improved assessment capability of the risks and tradeoffs of using polymer AM parts when deployed in field use or harsh service environments. The following prioritized list of materials has been identified as high priorities by the JAMWG for further study: PET-G, ABS, Ultem 9085, Nylon-11/12 AmericaMakes.us AmericaMakes.us Approved for Public Release – Project Call - ATRQ

Driven by… Topic Area 3 - Corrosion Mechanisms of LPBF Materials Problem Statement: Challenges observed for deployed AM parts include unique corrosion performance of AM materials and novel geometries. Specifically, high cooling rates which produce microstructures and non-equilibrium phases in AM materials have raised concerns about localized corrosion modes in a range of applications. Objective: Test and evaluate localized corrosion issues in 17-4PH steel, In 625, or AlSi10Mg because of their pervasive use in a variety of DoD hardware applications.
