Ti-6Al-4V (L-PBF, Farsoon Ti6Al4V, heat-treated)

Farsoon Ti6Al4V, heat-treated, is that maker's grade of Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy printed by laser powder bed fusion and heat treated after the build. As printed, the alloy has columnar prior-beta grains along the build direction filled with fine acicular martensite, high residual stress and limited ductility. Heat treatment relieves the stress and decomposes the martensite into a fine alpha-beta structure, improving ductility at some cost in strength, though it does not close internal porosity. Parts need supports and machining or finishing of the rough surface. Typical uses are lightweight aerospace brackets, medical device components and other complex high-performance parts. Every value on this page is read from Farsoon's 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.
