Mechanical property anisotropy is one of the issues that are limiting the industrial adoption of additive manufacturing (AM) Ti-6Al-4V components. To improve the deposits' microstructure, the effect of high-pressure interpass rolling was evaluated, and a flat and a profiled roller were compared. The microstructure was changed from large columnar prior b grains that traversed the component to equiaxed grains that were between 56 and 139 lm in size. The repetitive variation in Widmansta¨tten a lamellae size was retained; however, with rolling, the overall size was reduced. A ''fundamental study'' was used to gain insight into the microstructural changes that occurred due to the combination of deformation and deposition. High-pressure interpass rolling can overcome many of the shortcomings of AM, potentially aiding industrial implementation of the process.
