T1 - Pandora’s Box–Influence of Contour Parameters on Roughness and Subsurface Residual Stresses in Laser Powder Bed Fusion of Ti-6Al-4V N2 - The contour scan strategies in laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) of Ti-6Al-4V were studied at the coupon level. These scan strategies determined the surface qualities and subsurface residual stresses. The correlations to these properties were identified for an optimization of the LPBF processing. The surface roughness and the residual stresses in build direction were linked: combining high laser power and high scan velocities with at least two contour lines substantially reduced the surface roughness, expressed by the arithmetic mean height, from values as high as 30 μm to 13 μm, while the residual stresses rose from ~340 to about 800 MPa. At this stress level, manufactured rocket fuel injector components evidenced macroscopic cracking. A scan strategy completing the contour region at 100 W and 1050 mm/s is recommended as a compromise between residual stresses (625 MPa) and surface quality (14.2 μm). The LPBF builds were monitored with an in-line twin-photodiode-based melt pool monitoring (MPM) system, which revealed a correlation between the intensity quotient I2/I1, the surface roughness, and the residual stresses. Thus, this MPM system can provide a predictive estimate of the surface quality of the samples and resulting residual stresses in the material generated during LPBF.

It was found that both the degree of anisotropy, and the orientation of the permeability and meso-structure are similar, but not identical. We confirm that the morphological anisotropy of cordierite materials is weak, and clearly influenced by the extrusion process that determines the main direction of anisotropy. Properties of the autocorrelation function are discussed and it is shown why estimating the characteristic length of real meso-structures (grain or ?pore? size) is not possible. Finally, we show that the autocorrelation function applied on grey-level images can give a good estimate of the degree of anisotropy even with limited resolution.

These properties can be described on the basis of non-linear mechanical phenomena measurable as an inert frequency response signal.

Therefore, the accurate characterization of these features and the consideration of their impact is crucial for the safe design of components. The ability to characterize these features non-destructively enables the direct correlation on resulting mechanical performance. 3D X-ray computed tomography (XCT) is used to resolve and quantitively analyze microstructural features (i.e., voids, porosity). This is often used to assess the capability of the manufacturing route, i.e., additive manufacturing (AM). The non-destructive nature of the method also enables the study of the evolution of damage in materials from such microstructural features [1]. Using in-situ methods such as compression or tension, the propagation of damage from initial microstructure can be assessed, aiding our understanding of which features are detrimental to safety [3]. Diffraction based residual stress analysis methods including high energy X-ray and neutron diffraction can be used to study the residual stress gradients from the surface, subsurface and into the bulk non-destructively. These methods can be used to study the influence of heat treatments on residual stress and can be combined with XCT results to correlate the interaction of residual stresses with microstructural features (i.e., void clusters). This talk will give an overview of the capabilities and opportunities of 3D XCT and diffraction based residual stress analysis to close the gap in our understanding of material degradation on mechanical performance, enabling manufacturers to adjust their designs accordingly for safety critical applications. A particular focus will be made on examples where the two advanced techniques are combined to enhance such understanding.
