Effects of Heat Treatments on Microstructures and Mechanical Properties of Ti6Al4V Alloy Produced by Laser Solid Forming

The steep thermal gradient and complicated thermal cycle occur in the fabrication of Ti6Al4V alloy during laser solid forming (LSF). That leads to obvious anisotropic mechanical properties and requires essential heat treatments to improve its performance. In this work, different heat treatment strat...
