On the microstructure evolution of AA6061 with...
"This study uncovers new opportunities for microstructure engineering of AA6061 using pulsed lasers in powder bed fusion. Experimental analysis reveals that pulsed lasers allow for extensive control of grain sizes. Lower frequencies or duty cycles induce remelting cycles that promote finer grains and homogenized subgrain structures, while higher frequencies with high duty cycles sustain elevated temperatures, reducing cooling rates and resulting in coarser grains. Pulsing strategy is demonstrated as facile route for tailoring microstructure through enhanced control over solidification. These findings present an effective means in additive manufacturing by linking pulsed laser dynamics to microstructure evolution towards desired material properties.
This study unveils effective grain structure control using pulsed lasers without alloy modification, achieving texture homogenization and uniform subgrain structure through multiple melt pool boundaries."
