Abstract

Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is a manufacturing process that involves layer-by-layer fusion of metal powder material using a laser beam. AlSi10Mg alloy, a hypoeutectic aluminum-silicon alloy, is known for its favorable mechanical properties, low density, and corrosion resistance, making it widely used in various industries. While traditionally used for casting, the unique properties of AlSi10Mg alloy have opened up opportunities for additive manufacturing, including SLM technology. This paper explores the tracks quality and preferable parameter interval for production via SLM. SLM products exhibit unique microstructures with distinct advantages and limitations. This study underscores the importance of careful parameter selection during SLM and the need for effective quality control in achieving desired mechanical properties.
