Abstract

The paper shows the results related to regeneration possibilities analysis of a damaged slider removed from a hydraulic splitter that was repaired using additive manufacturing (AM), laser-based powder bed fusion of metals (PBF-LB/M) technology. The results demonstrate the high quality of the connection zone between the original part and the regenerated zone. The hardness measurement conducted at the interface between the two materials indicated a significant increase equal to 35% by using the M300 maraging steel, as a material for regeneration. Additionally, the use of digital image correlation (DIC) technology enabled the identification of the area where the largest deformation occurred during the tensile test, which was out of the connection zone between the two materials.
