Evaluation of additive manufacturing techniques applied to a waveguide mode transducer

This article presents a detailed comparison between the classic manufacturing technology by computer numerical control (CNC) and the disruptive additive manufacturing (AM) technology by means of selective laser sintering (SLS). Three different implementations of a mode transducer from the TE10 recta...
