Abstract
Electron beam melting (EBM) is a direct metal additive manufacturing technique which has been recently utilized for fabrication of biomedical implants. This paper represents an investigation into the mechanical properties of both as-built and hot isostatic pressing (HIP) processed samples manufactured in EBM process. The titanium alloy, Ti6Al4V was used, which is one of the most common materials for biomedical implants due to its high strength to weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and its biocompatibility features. Tensile properties, surface roughness, and Vickers microhardness have been investigated.
