Metal additive manufacturing (AM) refers to any process of making 3D metal parts layer-
upon-layer via the interaction between a heating source and feeding material from a digital …

This article overviews the scientific results of the microstructural features observed in 316 L
stainless steel manufactured by the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) method obtained by the …

Direct metal laser sintering (DMLS), a type of additive manufacturing (AM) process, is
currently used for the direct fabrication of powder-based functional metallic objects. The …

4 precipitation hardenable (PH) stainless steel is a useful material when a combination of
high strength and good corrosion resistance up to about 315° C is required. In the wrought …

Process parameters of selective laser melting affect the response of a powder–substrate
system and, therefore, the geometry and microstructure of the manufactured parts. The …

Additive manufacturing (AM) is increasingly used for the manufacturing of tools and dies; in
this respect, apart from the optimization of processing parameters, it is important to establish …

Thermal processing and mechanical characterization of tensile specimens fabricated from
bulk 17–4 PH material produced by selective laser melting (SLM) is presented. Prior to …

The article explores an evolution of a microstructure in AISI 420 martensitic stainless steel
during selective laser melting. Several upper layers had hardness of 750 HV and contained …

The mechanical behavior and the microstructural evolution of 17-4 precipitation hardenable
(PH) stainless steel processed using selective laser melting have been studied. Test …

In this study, the synergistic effects of heat treatment and surface roughness on the
