ORNL explores hybrid approach to manufacturing HIP cans
Oak Ridge National Laboratory scientists have collaborated with A.J. Tuck Company to develop a new manufacturing approach for use with the hot isostatic pressing (HIP) technique. The hybrid approach combines 3D printing and electroforming to produce so-called HIP cans used to form metal parts from powder materials, aiming to simplify the production of critical reactor components.
