RESULTS

Best option :

Electron Beam Melting (EBM) or Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) with titanium alloy.

Accessible option :

FDM or SLA printing for visual prototypes in resin or plastic, without mechanical function.

Concepts :

Demonstrates the role of AM in mass reduction while maintaining stiffness, and how lattice design integrates structure with function.

to conclude
This component represents an ultra-lightweight lattice cube optimized for strength-to-weight ratio, suited for applications like aerospace interiors or orthopedic implants. The design uses Ti-6Al-4V and emphasizes AM’s capability to fabricate complex geometries impossible through subtractive methods.
