“…Further, residual stress on other surface characteristics, such as corrosion behavior [49], wear rate, and microstructure evolution reported some controversy. Additionally, there are some new types of approaches in the measurement of residual stress of AM part suggested by Kluczy ński et al [94,95], which significantly affect the fatigue properties of AM-made 316L steel [96][97][98], which was shown in the co-authors' own work. Hence, more work is required to explore the residual stress influences on corrosion behavior, wear rate, and microstructure evolution.…”

Additive manufacturing (AM) is one of the recently studied research areas, due to its ability to eliminate different subtractive manufacturing limitations, such as difficultly in fabricating complex parts, material wastage, and numbers of sequential operations. Laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF) AM for SS316L is known for complex part production due to layer-by-layer deposition and is extensively used in the aerospace, automobile, and medical sectors. The process parameter selection is crucial for deciding the overall quality of the SS316L build component with L-PBF AM. This review critically elaborates the effect of various input parameters, i.e., laser power, scanning speed, hatch spacing, and layer thickness, on various mechanical properties of AM SS316L, such as tensile strength, hardness, and the effect of porosity, along with the microstructure evolution. The effect of other AM parameters, such as the build orientation, pre-heating temperature, and particle size, on the build properties is also discussed. The scope of this review also concerns the challenges in practical applications of AM SS316L. Hence, the residual stress formation, their influence on the mechanical properties and corrosion behavior of the AM build part for bio implant application is also considered. This review involves a detailed comparison of properties achievable with different AM techniques and various post-processing techniques, such as heat treatment and grain refinement effects on properties. This review would help in selecting suitable process parameters for various human body implants and many different applications. This study would also help to better understand the effect of each process parameter of PBF-AM on the SS316L build part quality.

“…The HIP is conducted at temperatures between 1150 • C and 1190 • C, with applied pressure between 1000 and 1450 bar and a duration of 3-4 h [41,42,54,100]. In [77], some HIPed samples were subjected to Precipitation Hardening (PH) with water cooling to reduce the sigma phase formation phenomenon.…”

316L stainless steel is the material of choice for several critical applications in which a combination of mechanical strength and resistance to corrosion is required, as in the biomedical field. Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies can pave the way to new design solutions, but microstructure, defect types, and surface characteristics are substantially different in comparison to traditional processing routes, making the assessment of the long-term durability of AM materials and components a crucial aspect. In this paper a thorough review is presented of the relatively large body of recent literature devoted to investigations on fatigue of AM 316L, focusing on the comparison between different AM technologies and conventional processes and on the influence of processing and post-processing aspects in terms of fatigue strength and lifetime. Overall fatigue data are quite scattered, but the dependency of fatigue performances on surface finish, building orientation, and type of heat treatment can be clearly appreciated, as well as the influence of different printing processes. A critical discussion on the different testing approaches presented in the literature is also provided, highlighting the need for shared experimental test protocols and data presentation in order to better understand the complex correlations between fatigue behavior and processing parameters.

“…[25][26][27] Also, the authors of this paper performed research related to the influence of heat treatment on LCF properties. [28] It has to be taken into account that heat treatment significantly changes the microstructure of the AM parts which changes the fracture mechanisms. That is why it is very important to characterize the as-built AM samples in different fatigue conditions-especially under LCF conditions, because of the existence of the significant research gap in such a field.…”

In this paper, the influence of the additive manufacturing (AM), powder bed fusion (PBF) process parameters on the low-cycle fatigue (LCF) properties of 316L steel samples is shown. Based on the previous research, five parameter groups were selected. To make this analysis broader, research results of AM parts have been compared to the conventionally made counterparts. Such an approach allowed analyzing the manner different parameters affect the tensile and LCF behavior. The preliminary tests indicated that AM specimens are characterized by 65 pct of the total LCF strength in comparison to the conventionally made material. Further LCF tests indicated differences in the dissipated energy of some samples, which was visible in the hysteresis loops generated during testing in the total strain amplitude range from 0.30 to 0.45 pct. Based on the Morrow approach, it was possible to register an increased share of the plastic component during the fracture process in the Additive Manufacturing (AM) parts in the LCF tests with the total strain amplitude above 0.45 pct. The final microscopical investigation of parts’ fractures surfaces indicated the influence of the layered structure, and internal imperfections (such as unmelted powder particles and lack of fusion) of the as-built AM parts on the cracking process, which caused an increased number of multiplanar cracks and generation of the complex fracture morphology characterized by the layered structure of AM parts and share of imperfections—mostly porosity caused by unmelted powder particles which potentially was a base of secondary stage cracks.
