ABSTRACT
The variability arising from the LPBF process, the multitude of manufacturing parameters available, and the intrinsic anisotropy of the process, which causes different mechanical properties in distinct building directions, result in a wide range of variables that must be considered when designing industrial parts. To understand the effect of these variables on the LPBF manufacturing process, the performance of the AlSi10Mg alloy produced through this technique has been tested through several mechanical tests, including hardness, tensile, shear, and fracture toughness. The results have been correlated with the microstructure, together with manufacturing parameters, building directions, border scanning strategy, and layer height. Significant differences were observed for each mechanical behavior depending on the configuration tested. As a result, an anisotropic material model has been developed from tested samples, which allows to numerically model the alloy and is unique in the current literature.
