Abstract

This study presents a review on powder bed laser additive manufacturing of stainless steel. The powder bed laser additive manufacturing processes that are presented in this paper are the selective laser sintering and selective laser melting. The powder bed laser additive manufacturing process of stainless steel are reviewed in this paper. The process parameters was found to plat an important role in the evolving properties of the powder bed based laser additive manufacturing process. The paper ends with the perspective of future research directions.
