Abstract:
The processing, structure, and property features for Ti-6Al-4V additively manufactured using laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) over a range of processing parameter combinations are reported. In terms of processing, laser power and laser scanning speed were varied over a wide range, to investigate dense processing space as well as regimes likely to result in keyhole, lack of fusion, and beading up defects, which can occur during L-PBF. Archimedes measurements were used to measure porosity, while X-ray computed tomography (XCT) was used to quantify pore sizes, pore morphologies, and overall porosity, and finally, optical microscopy was used to quantify prior-β grain characteristics. Average pore size and shape, porosity, prior- grain size and aspect ratio, and surface roughness for each processing parameter set are reported. Uniaxial tension tests and microhardness measurements were performed, with elastic modulus, yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, elongation to necking, elongation to fracture, and Vickers microhardness reported.
