The indirect manufacture of metallic and ceramic components via AM employs a process chain by which a blended feedstock is used to build the component. This feedstock contains a powdered filler material and a matrix material that, during additive manufacture, gives the component its as‐built strength. This part is known as the green part and is the origin of a multistage process by which the binder matrix is removed. The powdered filler is sintered and densified to form the final component. The process chain can be enabled by a variety of AM technologies and with a variety of process chains for debinding, sintering, and densification. As such, this section deals with the three most common AM methods and the two most common sintering process chains.
