Residual stresses (RS) of great magnitude are usually present in parts produced by Laser Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-LB), mainly owing to the extreme temperature gradients and high cooling rates involved in the process. Those "hidden" stresses can be detrimental to a part's mechanical properties and fatigue life; therefore, it is crucial to know their magnitude and orientation. The hole-drilling strain-gage method was used to determine the RS magnitude and direction-depth profiles. Cuboid specimens in the as-built state, and after standard solution annealing and ageing heat treatment conditions, were prepared to study the RS evolution throughout the heat treatment stages. Measurements were performed on the top and lateral surfaces. In the as-built specimens, tensile stresses of~400 MPa on the top and above 600 MPa on the lateral surface were obtained. On the lateral surface, RS anisotropy was noticed, with the horizontally aligned stresses being three times lower than the vertically aligned. RS decreased markedly after the first heat treatment. On heat-treated specimens, magnitude oscillations were observed. By microstructure analysis, the presence of carbides was verified, which is a probable root for the oscillations. Furthermore, compressive stresses immediate to the surface were obtained in heat-treated specimens, which is not in agreement with the typical characteristics of parts fabricated by PBF-LB, i.e., tensile stresses at the surface and compressive stresses in the part's core.Diverse metals AM techniques exist, and the most adopted in the industry are Powder Bed Fusion (PBF) and Directed Energy Deposition (DED), as for the classification by the ISO/ASTM 52900 (2015) international standard. These two techniques use a laser or an electron beam as a high energy density source to selectively melt the material and build the parts [3][4][5][6][7]. Actually, different nomenclatures are used for the same process. Laser Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-LB) is also known as Selective Laser Melting (SLM), Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), and Laser Cusing [7,8,11], depending mostly on the AM systems supplier.Focusing on PBF-LB, a micro-size powder is spread in thin layers of 20 and 50 µm [3], and then a laser beam guided by a galvanometric mirror selectively melts the deposited material according to the CAD model. The parts are built progressively from bottom to top, also known as the building direction (vertical) [7,11]. The use of support structures is common, either to support down-facing surfaces or to prevent part distortion. Part distortion occurs due to the large residual stresses (RS) generated during material solidification layer-by-layer, owing to the extreme temperature gradients and high cooling rates [12].New feedstock materials dedicated to AM systems have been developed; thereby, new opportunities will arise in the near future of AM [13]. Stainless steel; tool steel; and Ni-, Al-, Ti-, Co-Cr-, and Cu-based alloys are just a few of the metallic materials currently available for AM [7,14,15]. Introduction of int...
