This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20250091162 titled 'ENERGY BEAM EXPOSURES IN POWDER BED FUSION
Original Abstract Submitted
a powder bed fusion additive manufacturing method including exposing layers of a powder bed to an energy beam to selectively melt at least one area of each layer, wherein the energy beam is progressed along a scan path to melt material of the at least one area using a pulsed exposure. initial and/or end pulses of the pulsed exposure may have a shorter pulse duration than a pulse duration of a mid-pulse between the initial and end pulses.
