Abstract
⺠Responses of SLM-produced and wrought Ti6Al4V to heat treatment are compared. ⺠Temperature is found to be the controlling parameter for treatments in the α + β range. ⺠Ductility could be improved by a factor of 85%, from 7.27% to 13.59%. ⺠An optimal heat treatment for SLM produced Ti6Al4V is proposed.
