Abstract:Complex thermo-kinetic interactions during metal additive manufacturing reduce the homogeneity of the microstructure of the produced samples. Understanding the effect of processing parameters over the resulting mechanical properties is essential for adopting and popularizing this technology. The present work is focused on the effect of laser power, scanning speed, and hatch spacing on the relative density, microhardness, and microstructure of 316L stainless steel processed by laser powder bed fusion.
