The Nanotund3D is conceived as a complete work ow from initial materials to manufactured nal parts. Nanotund3D: the project towards the new generation of material for AM The european funded Research project Nanotund3D is taking advan- tage of the possibilities of Additive Manufacturing (AM) together with the development of a specially tailored Ti- based nano-additived mate- rial, that may represent a quantum leap forward for the design and manufacture of structural parts. By adding nano-particles (NPs) to metal matrixes through an inno- vative core-shell treatment of the NPs that suits the Ti-matrix, whole life cycle of the Nanotund3D material has been designed with AM pro- cessability in mind: safety and handling issues, processing in SLM/ EBM technologies, postprocessing and eventual certi cation issues are dealt with. A whole Health, Safety and Environmental (HSE) mana- gement system will also be developed, as well as all the protocols to start quali cation/certi cation of material and process.
