Laser Powder Bed Fusion of a High Strength Al-Si-Zn-Mg-Cu Alloy

Laser Powder Bed Fusion of a High Strength Al-Si-Zn-Mg-Cu Alloy

Al-Si-Zn-Mg-Cu samples were produced using Laser Powder Bed Fusion from mixed AlSi10Mg and 7075 powders. It was observed that the introduction of silicon to an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy strongly reduced the crack density, probably because of the reduction of the solidification range, the improved fluidity o...
