Abstract:Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is an increasingly concerned trend in Ti-6Al-4V blade manufacturing, while the SLMed Ti-6Al-4V blade cannot be used directly because of poor surface integrity and high residual stresses. Precise machining after SLM is a feasible solution but also a challenge. The low rigidity of the blade will lead to deformation when machining. The deformation can lead to surface error and may make defect parts. Two-steps machining processes to address the problems were proposed in this paper. Fi… Show more
