摘要
This study investigates the influence of different scanning strategies on the hardness of the parts, fabricated by direct metal laser melting. In this work, prealloyed powder of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) is used to produce dense parts with three different scanning strategies: unidirectional, alternate, and cross-hatching. A numerical scheme is developed to predict the heat transfer, fluid flow, and thermal history-based phase transformation during the process. Surface hardness is calculated from the obtained phase fractions. Hardness is measured experimentally, and X-ray diffraction is used for phase identification. The hardness is found to be highly dependent on the microstructure of as-built parts. The results show that rapid solidification during direct metal laser melting leads to the formation of hcp-structured acicular martensite from the parent beta phase, which increases the hardness. Higher part densities are observed for cross-hatching strategy compared to other scanning strategies. The predicted maximum hardness for different scanning strategies compare well against the experimental observations.
