Optimization of Laser Based-Powder Bed Fusion Parameters for Controlled Porosity in Titanium Alloy Components.

Laser based-powder bed fusion (LB-PBF) enables fast, efficient, and cost-effective production of high-performing products. While advanced functionalities are often derived from geometric complexity, the capability to tailor material properties also offers significant opportunities for technical innovation across many fields. This study explores the optimization of the LB-PBF process parameters for producing Ti6Al4V titanium alloy parts with controlled porosity.
