NiTi SMA has widespread use in commercial and scientific fields with its recycling effect. Today, NiTi SMA alloys, which have different usage areas, are expected to have different properties. At the beginning of these properties, it is necessary to produce of the porosity structures (implant technology) and compact structure (high density material). For this reason, NiTi SMAs were produced with porous and compact structures in this study. Obtained theoretical densities were achieved from 57% to 90% in parts production.
