Structure and machinability of thin-walled parts made of titanium alloy powder using electron beam melting technology

Abstract

the present paper aims to study the structure and properties of raw and thermal treated titaniumbased powder material that is used to produce thin-walled components by electron beam melting technology. Producing the end product means also studying the finishing cutting process. examining the quality of end product in terms of geometric tolerance and thin walls thickness stability as well as control the surface roughness is also included in this study. keywords. electron beam melting, microstructure, machinability, titanium
