Mechanical Properties of 316L manufactured by selective laser melting and Laser melting deposition 3D Pri

Laser Based 3D Printing is an recently advance manufacturing technology for making complex shape comopnent such as automobile and aerospace. So in this article, stainless steel 316L was manufactured by Selective Laser Melting (SLM) and Laser Melting Deposition (LMD) method. SLM is an additive manufacturing process that allow for the manufacture of small and complex component by laser melting and solidification of powder in bed using a high intensity laser beam. The results showed that the laser scanning speed and laser power affects the defect, microstructure and the hardness of the components.
