Maraging steel is an engineering alloy which has been widely employed in metal additive manufacturing. This paper examines manufacturing and post-processing factors affecting the properties of maraging steel fabricated via laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF). It covers the review of published research findings on how powder quality feedstock, processing parameters, laser scan strategy, build orientation and heat treatment can influence the microstructure, density and porosity, defects and residual stresses developed on L-PBF maraging steel, with a focus on the maraging steel 300 alloy. This review offers an evaluation of the resulting mechanical properties of the as-built and heat-treated maraging steel 300, with a focus on anisotropic characteristics. Possible directions for further research are also identified.

Geometrical Complexity

The Inconel 625 (IN625) superalloy has a high strength, excellent fatigue, and creep resistance under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions, and is one of the critical materials used for manufacturing high-temperature bearing parts of aeroengines. However, the poor workability of IN625 alloy prevents IN625 superalloy to be used in wider applications, especially in applications requiring high geometrical complexity. Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is a powerful additive manufacturing process which can produce metal parts with high geometrical complexity and freedom. This paper reviews the studies that have been done on LPBF of IN625 focusing on the microstructure, mechanical properties, the development of residual stresses, and the mechanism of defect formation. Mechanical properties such as microhardness, tensile properties, and fatigue properties reported by different researchers are systematically summarized and analyzed. Finally, the remaining issues and suggestions on future research on LPBF of IN625 alloy parts are put forward.

Despite the attractive capabilities of additive manufacturing (AM) technology, the industrialization of these processes remains very low. This is attributed to the complexes physical phenomena involved in the AM process and the layered structure of the produced parts. Intense research work is still needed for the prediction and optimization of AM parts mechanical properties. In this study, the influence of particle size distribution (PSD) of stainless steel 316L (SS 316L) powders on AM parts properties was investigated. Four PSD were used to produce test parts and compare the resulting porosity, surface roughness and macro-hardness. The SS 316L specimens were fabricated by Laser Powder Bed Fusion process (LPBF) on a SLM 125HL machine using variations in laser power and scan velocity. Computed scan tomography (CT) was used to characterize the defects. Lack of fusion and keyhole defects were detected. Defects were detected even in nearly dense parts. The powder size distribution was found to affect the porosity. Results from CT tests were used to identify the minimum achievable porosities for each powder, through the appropriate selection of process parameters. The macro-hardness and surface roughness were found to vary with the powder properties.
