Abstract
The powder-bed additive manufacturing (AM) process offers advantages in terms of reduced material waste, ability to create complex shape and a decrease in the lead time from design to manufacturing. Recently, custom-made implant of Ti alloys is being developed by selective laser melting (SLM) in additive manufacturing (AM) process. However, the difficulty in the fabrication of titanium alloys due to their pre-alloyed powder cost, resulting in a limited usage of titanium alloys. To overcome this disadvantage, it is effective to fabricate the Ti alloys by SLM from mixture of pure elemental powders. In this case, it is avoided the preparing of the pre-alloyed powders. Therefore, the purpose of the present study is the trying to the fabrication of the Ti-20at.%X (X = Cr, Nb) alloys from the mixture of pure elemental powders by SLM.
