Study of the effect of processing variation of LPBF printed Ti-6Al-4V on the scatter of final microstructural and mechanical properties
EF 2023-24
Résumé
This project aims to investigate two aspects of process control of the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process – 1) the effects of using powder feedstock from a new supplier; and 2) establishing representative control limits for microstructure and bulk mechanical properties of LPBF produced parts. The effects of powder feedstock on build quality and subsequent bulk properties, and investigations into process control are both consistent areas of intensive research in the AM community. This study investigates the effects of new Ti64 ELI powder feedstock and thermal post-processing (hot isostatic pressing – HIP) on process stability during additive manufacturing. In addition, machine learning will be used to analyze the generated data for better understanding and control of the process.
