AM Friends, Titanium alloys have been continuously developed for additive manufacturing for more that two decades, and among them, the "workhorse" Ti-6Al-4V is attracting the main interest. See below a new review of fusion-based AM of titanium alloys. It mentions about 20 alloys processed with the AM technologies PBF-LB, PBF-EB, DED-LB and DED-Arc. With almost 400 references, it is probably a good source of information. I'll put it on my reading list. :-) "A two-decade odyssey in fusion-based additive manufacturing of titanium alloys and composites", https://lnkd.in/gHQFkDQa #additivemanufacturing #3dprinting #titanium #Ti6Al4V #titaniumalloys #freemelt ***This post was written without AI***

High and low cycle fatigue properties of selective laser melted AISI 316L and AlSi10Mg. Happy to share our last paper published by the "International Journal of Fatigue". Many thanks to all the other co-authors. In the last years, additive manufacturing has been widely adopted to enable lightweight design based on topological optimization. In this work, both the low-cycle and high-cycle fatigue behaviors of selective laser melted AISI 316L and AlSi10Mg were investigated on small-sized specimens in the as-built condition. https://lnkd.in/ehDC32s6

This is the shooting video about Additive Manufacturing. The type of Metal Additive Manufacturing is LMD (Laser Metal Deposition). To observe the powder behavior, improve the quality of additive manufacturing. Check it out: https://bit.ly/41Y0omP

In previous publications by the LLNL team, tailoring laser energy input spatially and temporally has been shown to control microstructure and residual stress in laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) additive manufactured parts. In this latest work, led by Kaila Bertsch and first-authored by Connor Rietema, the use of large area surface annealing with a secondary diode laser is investigated as a method to control the microstructure of Ti6Al4V during L-PBF. To determine the effect of layer annealing on the microstructural development through the height of AM Ti6Al4V components, all cylinders were built with the same initial parameters but different in-situ diode annealing schedules. Temperature gradients that developed in the parts during annealing were determined by measuring the surface temperature with an infrared camera and the base plate temperature with a thermocouple, then applying a simple, conduction-only thermal simulation to model the temperature throughout the height of the build. With this framework, the microstructural evolution could then be tied to the temperature history. This information is critical to developing annealing strategies that localize heat treatments for complete 3D spatial control of the microstructure. The work was co-authored by John Roehling and William L. Smith. https://lnkd.in/d8e9h8wk
