Influence of process parameters on surface roughness of aluminum parts produced by DMLS.

TLDR
In this paper, a model based on an L18 orthogonal array of Taguchi design was created to perform experimental planning and the upper surfaces of the samples were analyzed before and after shot peening.
Abstract
Direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) is an additive manufacturing technique for the fabrication of near net-shaped parts directly from computer-aided design data by melting together different layers with the help of a laser source. This paper presents an investigation of the surface roughness of aluminum samples produced by DMLS. A model based on an L18 orthogonal array of Taguchi design was created to perform experimental planning. Some input parameters, namely laser power, scan speed, and hatching distance were selected for the investigation. The upper surfaces of the samples were analyzed before and after shot peening. The morphology was analyzed by means of field emission scanning electron microscope. Scan speed was found to have the greatest influence on the surface roughness. Further, shot peening can effectively reduce the surface roughness.

Consolidation phenomena in laser and powder-bed based layered manufacturing

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe which types of laser-induced consolidation can be applied to what type of material, and demonstrate that although SLS/SLM can process polymers, metals, ceramics and composites, quite some limitations and problems cause the palette of applicable materials still to be limited.
