Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) process is one of the most well-known additive manufacturing methods for the production of complex and functional parts from metal powder material. Residual stresses cause a major setback in the LPBF process and restrict the serviceability of the parts, particularly in advanced technology applications. Process parameters have a crucial impact on residual stress formation and residual stresses alter the reliability of material properties. Therefore, the influence of process parameters on residual stresses needed to be investigated to provide more accurate mechanical properties for design and production optimization for the LPBF process. 17-4 PH stainless steel is desirable among the stainless steels for various fields, including aerospace, aviation, energy, and chemical industries, due to their superior high strength, hardness, and corrosion properties. Moreover, 17-4 PH stainless steels are easily machinable at solution heat treated condition. Their high weldability with high corrosion resistance properties makes them very attractive for industries. The process parameters’ effect on surface residual stresses could be performed by XRD residual stress measurement method which is very sensitive to surface and subsurface residual stresses. Residual stress specimens produced by LPBF process in as built condition had more than fifty times surface residual stresses compared to the conventionally produced bar specimens which indicated the importance of the investigation of surface residual stresses of LPBF parts. In this thesis; the influence of scanning strategies, laser power, exposure time, volumetric energy density, hatch distance, point distance, layer thickness, preheating of the baseplate, and separation from the base plate were analyzed for 17-4 Precipitation Hardened (PH) stainless steel parts manufactured by LPBF additive manufacturing system in terms of residual stress accumulation on the surface and close to the very surface region by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) method. The analyses show that, volumetric energy density (VED), laser power, and exposure time optimization played a crucial role in residual stress minimization. VED parameter optimization was crucial for overall penetration and surface residual stress formation on material. High laser power and less exposure time within the defined parameter range and specified VED value could be the optimum process parameter in terms of residual stress accumulation on the surface of a material. On the other hand, point distance and hatch distance had a slight influence when compared with the effect of volumetric energy density, laser power, and exposure time within the defined ranges. The as built parts’ residual stresses could be reduced by up to ~67%. However, the tensile strength and yield strength of a material could also be decreased by 14% and 12%, respectively. Therefore, from an engineering standpoint, a trade-off between lower surface residual stress values and mechanical strength shall be taken into account.

High Temperature Mechanical Properties of Ceramic Dispersoid Reinforced 17-4 PH Stainless Steel Produced by Selective Laser Melting
Özsoy, Andaç; Dericioğlu, Arcan Fehmi; Aydoğan Güngör, Eda; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2021-9-08)
Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is a metal additive manufacturing process used to produce complex-shaped parts by the fusion of metal powders by a laser heat source. SLM processing of metals offers various advantages such as freedom of design, part consolidation, fast prototyping, weight reduction etc. Stainless steels have been one of the first choices to be implemented in SLM processing. Among these, 17-4 PH stainless steel holds a sweet spot with its corrosion resistance, weldability and high strength at e...
THE EFFECT OF REUSED POWDER CHARACTERISTICS ON THE PROPERTIES OF ADDITIVELY MANUFACTURED 17-4 PH STAINLESS STEEL
Kahraman, Ece; Ögel, Bilgehan; Yasa, Evren; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2022-4-25)
Powder bed additive manufacturing methods use the powder form of the material of the part to be produced as raw material. The quality of the production is highly dependent on the properties of the powder used in the first place. Consistently using new unused powder for each new additive manufacturing is costly and removes the advantage of additive manufacturing, i.e. low amount of waste material. In powder bed additive manufacturing methods, powders are laid layer by layer and melted by laser or electron be...
The Effect of Thermohydrogen Process on the Mechanical Properties of the Ti-6Al-4V Alloy Produced by Selective Laser Melting
Bilgin, Guney Mert; Esen, Ziya; Dericioğlu, Arcan Fehmi (2018-10-27)
Selective laser melting (SLM) is a powder bed fusion type additive manufacturing (AM) process that allows fabrication of complex and detailed components from computer aided design (CAD) model in one single step without the need of costly tools.Ti-6Al-4V alloy is widely used in the applications where high specific strength is required particularly in aero engine discs, frames and compressors.Production of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy with a conventional methodis inadequate in manufacturing complex shaped parts used e...
Kinetics and microstructural analysis of fatigue fracture progress in weld joints of duplex stainless steel grade 2205
Yurtışık, Koray; Gürbüz, Rıza; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2013)
Despite its high efficiency, autogenous keyhole welding technique leads to an excessive δ-ferrite formation in as-welded duplex stainless steels that leads to deterioration of the corrosion properties of the material, as well as its toughness. Developing the hybrid plasma-gas metal arc welding procedure for duplex stainless steels, a narrow gap and single-pass weldment on 11 mm-thick duplex stainless steel (grade 2205) plates has been achieved. Contrary to other keyhole techniques, such as Laser beam weldin...
Effects of Graphene Transfer and Thermal Annealing on Anticorrosive Properties of Stainless Steel
Oh, Jeong Hyeon; Han, Sangmok; Kim, Tae-Yoon; PARK, JONGEE; Öztürk, Abdullah; Kim, Soo Young (2017-11-01)
Stainless steel (STS) films were annealed in a thermal quartz tube and covered with graphene to improve their anticorrosive properties. Graphene was synthesized via the chemical vapor deposition method and transferred onto the surface of the STS film by the layer-by-layer approach. The structure of the STS film changed from alpha-Fe to gamma-Fe after annealing at 700 C for 1 h, resulting in an increase of 82.72% in the inhibition efficiency. However, one-layer graphene acted as a conductive pathway and ther...
