NiTi is a versatile material with a broad range of functional properties such as shape memory effect and superelasticity, in combination with high internal damping capabilities and biocompatibility. Processing NiTi with Powder Bed Fusion (PBF) enables new potentials to solve engineering problems. Due to the layerwise manufacturing technique associated with additive manufacturing, complex shaped geometries can be realized, which are not possible with conventional manufacturing methods. Hence, the combination of functional material characteristics with capabilities of PBF has high potential for novel applications and complex structures. In this work, potential and performance of manufacturing complex structures with NiTi is demonstrated.
