Abstract Scope |
In this work, we study the as-built microstructures of Ti6Al4V samples that were printed by in operando selective laser melting (SLM) at the MicroSAXS beamline of the Swiss Light Source (SLS). Several samples were built with the same SLM parameters but with different cross-sections. During printing X-ray diffraction patterns were recorded with a frequency of 20Hz. The microstructures and textures on the build and the frontal planes were investigated by Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD). The prior β phase was reconstructed from the orientation of the α’ phase in the EBSD data by using ARPGE. It is found that the microstructures and textures of the prior β grain and the α’ martensites laths are strongly related to the built size. We link the differences of the as-built microstructures to the different thermal history, obtained from the X-ray diffraction data. |
