Effects of machining surface and laser beam scanning strategy on machinability of selective laser melted Ti6Al4V alloy in milling

Overlapping melting trajectories and partially-melted powders result in poor surface morphology and high surface roughness values (Ra = ~13.34 μm) of selective laser melted (SLMed) Ti6Al4V alloy. Secondary processing of SLMed components is thus an essential finishing operation to produce functional...
