3D Systems LaserForm Ti Gr5 (A) is that maker's Ti-6Al-4V grade, printed by laser powder bed fusion and then hot isostatically pressed. As built, it forms fine acicular martensite within columnar prior-beta grains along the build direction, with high residual stress, some internal porosity and a rough, support-marked surface. Hot isostatic pressing closes internal pores and transforms the martensite to a coarser lamellar alpha-beta structure, giving higher ductility and fatigue resistance at some cost in strength. Surface-connected defects remain, so critical surfaces are usually machined. Parts are used for aerospace brackets, fatigue-loaded components and medical implants. Every value on this page is read from 3D Systems' own material data sheet — quoted, cited and dated — and is the maker's statement about printed material, not a measurement by MatWorld; none has yet been reviewed by a person.
