Item Mechanical Properties of Pure Titanium Models Processed by Selective Laser Melting(2002) Santos, Edson; Abe, F.; Kitamura, Y.; Osakada, K.; Shiomi, M.The influence of laser processing parameters on mechanical properties and microstructure of pure titanium models made by selective laser melting is investigated. The density of the models can reach higher than 95% under proper conditions. Although the tensile strength test shows results comparable to the wrought material, the impact and torsional fatigue strengths are low because of porosity and oxygen pick-up suggested by increasing of hardness. Hot isostatic pressing allows almost full densification and greatly improves mechanical properties.
