Abstract
A method for determining alloy processing parameters is provided. Simulated melt pool temperature and melt pool geometries can be used to create an initial printability map based on laser speed and laser power, and the printability map can include regions with potential manufacturing defects. Single-track experiments can be used to calibrate the printability map, to produce a revised printability map. Finally, contour lines representing hatch spacing can also be added to the revised printability map to produce a final printability map that can be used to configure additive manufacturing machinery.
