dc.description.abstractComplex thermo-kinetic interactions during metal additive manufacturing reduce the homogeneity of the microstructure of the produced samples. Understanding the effect of processing parameters over the resulting mechanical properties is essential for adopting and popularizing this technology. The present work is focused on the effect of laser power, scanning speed, and hatch spacing on the relative density, microhardness, and microstructure of 316L stainless steel processed by laser powder bed fusion. Several characterization techniques were used to study the microstructure and mechanical properties: optical, electron microscopies, and spectrometry. A full-factorial design of experiments was employed for relative density and microhardness evaluation. The results derived from the experimental work were subjected to statistical analysis, including the use of analysis of variance (ANOVA) to determine both the main effects and the interaction between the processing parameters, as well as to observe the contribution of each factor on the mechanical properties. The results show that the scanning speed is the most statistically significant parameter influencing densification and microhardness. Ensuring the amount of volumetric energy density (125 J/mm3) used to melt the powder bed is paramount; maximum densification (99.7%) is achieved with high laser power and low scanning speed, while hatch spacing is not statistically significant.
