摘要: Abstract In this study, laser welding was successfully used to join selective melted (SLMed) SLMed and wrought Ti-6Al-4V specimens. The microstructures, microhardnesses, tensile performances, fatigue lives crack growth rates (FCGRs) of the welded specimens as well were investigated. It is found that stress-relieved has a good weldability. joints have similar microstructures (columnar prior β grain boundaries with inside acicular α′), microhardnesses (410 HV–450 HV), ultimate strengths (UTSs) (~ 1200 MPa), yield (YSs) 1080 MPa) FCGRs in zones, which are also those But lower than Ti-6Al-4V, much traditionally annealed Ti-6Al-4V. Heat treatment on decreases (390 HV–410 UTSs (1106 MPa), YSs (1008 MPa) but shows no improvements lives. can be concluded significantly influence UTSs, specimens, very limited influences due existences pores. Pores play more decisive role lives, FCGRs.
