Abstract Scope |
The requirements of light-weighting structures in automotive industry and other transport applications drive the improvement of mechanical properties of aluminium alloys in different manufacturing processes. The present study uses a comparison approach to investigate the microstructure and mechanical properties of an Al–Mg2Si–Mg alloy processed by HPDC and SLM 3D printing. The processing condition, alloy composition, microstructure characterization and mechanical properties under as-cast condition and under as-SLMed condition were introduced in the paper. The strengthening mechanism and the improvement of mechanical properties in comparison with the conventional cast Al-Si-Mg alloys are discussed in association with defect formation. |
