Abstract

Among the additive manufacturing (AM) techniques for metals available today, the laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) is the one that guarantees the highest dimensional accuracy and precision, compared to laser metal deposition (LMD) methods that, however, offer higher productivity and the possibility of repair applications. A drawback of most of PBF processes, in the case of both laser and electron beam melting, is that the build volume has to be entirely filled up to the height of the tallest object to be produced, even in the case of a single object. Since not all the powder loaded into the build volume is melted to obtain the desired parts, it may be reclaimed for reuse. However, excess powder participates in the process so that its chemical-physical characteristics will inevitably evolve through reuse cycles. Due to the high cost of metal powders and the critical role of feedstock characteristics with respect to quality assurance of both part and process properties, it is important to investigate and maximize the number of times the powder can be reused for subsequent AM runs without causing an unacceptable decay of the mechanical properties of produced parts. Knowing that powders recycling is intensively under investigation, this Ph.D. thesis proposes an experimental investigation of two recycle strategies, chosen according to an academic and industrial point of view. In order to investigate and understand the mechanisms and the effects of recycling process, the experimental activities reported in this work refer to powders, tensile and fatigue samples manufactured using Selective Laser Melting technology and employing four of the most widespread and studied alloys: AlSi10Mg, Ti6Al4V, PH1 (15-5 PH) stainless steel and GP1 (17-4 PH) stainless steel.
