Abstract
Laser assisted generative production techniques like Selective Laser Melting (SLM) are novel but complex near net shape fabrication methods. The present paper describes properties of metallic specimens generated by SLM. Therefore various process parameters were observed to evaluate their influence on certain attributes of parts fabricated by Selective Laser Melting. In addition, approaches for an improvement of density, surface quality and mechanical properties are given.

Selective laser melting (SLM) is a powder-based additive manufacturing capable to produce parts layerby-layer from a 3D CAD model. Currently there is a growing interest in industry for applying this technology for generating objects with high geometrical complexity. To introduce SLM process into ind
Application of selective laser melting for manufacturing three-dimensional objects represents one of the promising directions to solve challenging industrial problems. This approach permits to extend dramatically the freedom of design and manufacture by allowing, for example, to create an object wit
