Senvol to Commercialize Siemens AM Data

Senvol is planning to publish various additive manufacturing databases produced by Siemens Energy, after Siemens’ move to make the data more accessible rather than solely for internal use. Commercialization will commence with databases on Ti64, Inconel 625 and Inconel 718. Each of these databases were generated by Siemens Energy on its Laser Beam Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-LB) machines.

“This marks an extremely significant point in the additive manufacturing industry,” says Annie Wang, president, Senvol. “Databases of this pedigree and magnitude are typically considered proprietary information and are not made commercially available to other organisations.”

The databases will be offered via Senvol’s wider Senvol Indexes product line—data sets for additive manufacturing material characterization. Each Senvol Index data set is sold individually and provides instantaneous access to AM data sets that might normally take months to build.

The databases feature hundreds of specimens spread across dozens of tests—such as tensile, low cycle fatigue, high cycle fatigue and creep—most of which were conducted at various temperature conditions.
