    Additive manufacturing (AM), a bottom-up approach that ‘adds’ successive layers to produce a component, has reduced the cost, time and materials’ waste of aerospace parts production while enhancing the design space and properties. Powder bed fusion-electron beam (PBF-EB) AM begins with metal powders that are melted to form the layers. The challenge is to control the AM process to ensure the desired local materials properties. The EU-funded AMELI project will integrate PBF-EB AM with powerful scanning electron microscopy widely used in research for materials’ analysis. The resulting complex heat source for melting together with unprecedented process analysis will overcome current barriers and pave the way to enhanced performance of complex aerospace parts.
