    | Abstract Scope | The intrinsic rich surface texture and internal surface porosity of the as-built laser-based powder bed fusion (PBF-L) technology hamper their potential by compromising the mechanical performance of the manufactured components. In this talk, we will discuss the effect on the fatigue performance of PBF-L/IN-718 printed by four different machine manufacturers, with and without contour pass, and printed at 0°, 45°, and 90° (using support structures when needed). The internal porosity effects on fatigue performance were investigated by testing heat-treated (HT) specimens vs  HT + hot isostatic pressing (HIP) specimens. Surface roughness effects on fatigue performance were investigated by comparing the as-built surface condition performance vs. surface-finished specimens at three different levels, Ra ~3.2 μm, Ra ~1.6 μm, and Ra < 0.8 μm. In summary, the synergistic effects of the aforementioned variables were tested by uniaxial tensile load control high-cycle fatigue experiments at room temperature. |
