A high-power laser is used as the heat source in laser metal deposition. During this process, a surface layer is created by means of melting and simultaneous application of virtually any given material. The filler material can be supplied either in powder form e.g. as metal powder, or with a welding wire. When laser metal deposition is carried

It is noted that of late, the 3D printing of smart materials has also come to be known as 4D printing in the open literature [9]. This is particularly common when the AM fabrication employs a material with a shape memory effect to produce a component that exhibits a shape-shifting behaviour in time.

Here, the laser radiation melts a small part of the base material and converts the powder into a solid layer that adheres to the base material metallurgically. In this way, a 3D component grows from the powder bed layer by layer. Laser Material Deposition (LMD) has also proven to be an efficient surface technology of a special kind.
