Abstract

A process of producing an article and an article made are provided. The process includes producing a near-net shape component. The process includes forming a consolidation shell by additive manufacturing. The consolidation shell defines an interior space having a geometry corresponding to a component. A metallic powder is provided to the interior space. Gas is removed from the interior space. The metallic powder is consolidated in the consolidation shell under sufficient heat and pressure to form the near-net shape component.
