T1 - Reproducibility and Scattering in Additive Manufacturing: Results from a Round Robin on PBF-LB/M AlSi10Mg Alloy T1 - Reproduzierbarkeit und Streuung bei der additiven Fertigung: Ergebnisse eines Ringversuchs mit einer PBF-LB/M AlSi10Mg-Legierung N2 - The round robin test investigated the reliability users can expect for AlSi10Mg additive manufactured specimens by laser powder bed fusion through examining powder quality, process parameter, microstructure defects, strength and fatigue. Besides for one outlier, expected static material properties could be found. Optical microstructure inspection was beneficial to determine true porosity and porosity types to explain the occurring scatter in properties. Fractographic analyses reveal that the fatigue crack propagation starts at the rough as-built surface for all specimens. Statistical analysis of the scatter in fatigue using statistical derived safety factors concludes that at a stress of 36.87 MPa the fatigue limit of 107 cycles could be reached for all specimen with a survival probability of 99.999 %. N2 - Im Rahmen eines Ringversuchs wurde durch die Untersuchung der Pulverqualität, der Prozessparameter, der Gefügefehler, der Festigkeit und der Ermüdung die Zuverlässigkeit bestimmt, die Nutzer von AlSi10Mg-Proben erwarten können, die mit pulverbettbasiertes Schmelzen mittels Laser (engl. Laser Powder Bed Fusion) gefertigt worden sind. Abgesehen von einem Ausreißer wurden die erwarteten statischen Materialeigenschaften erreicht. Eine optische Gefügeprüfung diente dazu, die tatsächliche Porosität und Arten von Porosität zu ermitteln, um die bei den Eigenschaften auftretende Streuung zu erklären. Fraktographische Unterschungen zeigen eine bei allen Proben von der rauen Oberfläche im As-built-Zustand ausgehende Ermüdungsrissausbreitung. Aus der statistischen Analyse der Streuung bezüglich der Ermüdung unter Anwendung von statistischen abgeleiteten Sicherheitsfaktoren geht hervor, dass alle Proben die Dauerfestigkeit von 107 Zyklen bei einer Spannung von 36,87 MPa mit einer Überlebenswahrscheinlichkeit von 99,999 % erreichten.

T1 - Investigation on seam quality and fatigue crack propagation in electron beam welded additive manufactured Inconel 939 N2 - Laser powder bed fusion of metals (PBF-LB/M) offers great potential for the production of new and spare parts for stationary gas turbines made of nickel superalloys such as Inconel 939 (IN939). In order to enable integration into existing assemblies and overcome design limitations, the additive manufacturing process chain must be expanded by suitable joining techniques. This study compares the electron beam welding of cast IN939 sheets and sheets produced additively using PBF-LB/M. The investigation focuses on the achievable seam quality with regard to geometric irregularities and internal defects in the form of liquation cracks on the microscale in the heat-affected zone. The evaluation of the welded samples shows no differences in the formation of the seam shape between the additively manufactured material and the cast material. For both materials, the highest quality category for beam-welded seams according to DIN EN ISO 13,919–1 was achieved at high welding speeds of 20 mm/s. Regardless of the manufacturing method, both materials show an increase in crack formation with increasing welding speed. However, due to its microstructure, the PBF-LB/M material exhibits significantly fewer microcracks overall. Final crack propagation tests on welded PBF-LB/M samples that were treated using HIP also show stable crack growth without sudden failure, which opens up potential for practical application.
