Conventionally processed precipitation hardening aluminum alloys are generally treated with T6 heat treatments which are time-consuming and generally optimized for conventionally processed microstructures. Alternatively, parts produced by laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) are characterized by unique microstructures made of very fine and metastable phases. These peculiar features require specifically optimized heat treatments. This work evaluates the effects of a short T6 heat treatment on L-PBF AlSi7Mg samples. The samples underwent a solution step of 15 min at 540 °C followed by water quenching and subsequently by an artificial aging at 170 °C for 2–8 h. The heat treated samples were characterized from a microstructural and mechanical point of view and compared with both as-built and direct aging (DA) treated samples. The results show that a 15 min solution treatment at 540 °C allows the dissolution of the very fine phases obtained during the L-PBF process; the subsequent heat treatment at 170 °C for 6 h makes it possible to obtain slightly lower tensile properties compared to those of the standard T6. With respect to the DA samples, higher elongation was achieved. These results show that this heat treatment can be of great benefit for the industry.

Residual stresses (RS) of great magnitude are usually present in parts produced by Laser Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-LB), mainly owing to the extreme temperature gradients and high cooling rates involved in the process. Those “hidden” stresses can be detrimental to a part’s mechanical properties and fatigue life; therefore, it is crucial to know their magnitude and orientation. The hole-drilling strain-gage method was used to determine the RS magnitude and direction-depth profiles. Cuboid specimens in the as-built state, and after standard solution annealing and ageing heat treatment conditions, were prepared to study the RS evolution throughout the heat treatment stages. Measurements were performed on the top and lateral surfaces. In the as-built specimens, tensile stresses of ~400 MPa on the top and above 600 MPa on the lateral surface were obtained. On the lateral surface, RS anisotropy was noticed, with the horizontally aligned stresses being three times lower than the vertically aligned. RS decreased markedly after the first heat treatment. On heat-treated specimens, magnitude oscillations were observed. By microstructure analysis, the presence of carbides was verified, which is a probable root for the oscillations. Furthermore, compressive stresses immediate to the surface were obtained in heat-treated specimens, which is not in agreement with the typical characteristics of parts fabricated by PBF-LB, i.e., tensile stresses at the surface and compressive stresses in the part’s core.

Weld Parameters

The industrial use of laser powder-bed fusion (L-PBF) in turbomachinery is gaining momentum renderingthe inspection and quali?cation of certain post-processing steps necessary. This includes fusiontechniques that allow to print multiple parts separately to take advantage of e.g. various print orientationsand join them subsequently. The main motivation of this study is to validate the tungsten inertgas (TIG) welding process of L-PBF manufactured parts using industrial speci?cations relevant for gasturbines to pave the way for the industrial production of modular build setups. For this, two commonlyused nickel-based super alloys for high-temperature applications, Inconel 718 and Inconel 625 are chosen.Since their defect-free printability has been established widely, we focus on the suitability to be joined usingTIG welding. The process is evaluated performing microstructural examination and mechanical testsin as-built as well as heat-treated samples. The welds are assessed by applying a general weld quali?cationapproach used at Siemens Gas and Power. It was found that both materials can be joined via TIGwelding using standard weld parameters causing minimal defects. A solution annealing heat treatmentbefore welding is not necessary for a positive outcome, but still recommended for Inconel 718.
