Cover Story: Understanding texture formation in melt pools allows for the modification of the surface-layer microstructure and corresponding material properties, providing an opportunity to integrate laser surface re-melting into metal additive manufacturing. Assisted by recently developed real-time temperature monitoring techniques, namely laser surface re-melting and EBSD, this study investigates the fundamental relationship between cooling rate and crystallographic texture formation in single melting tracks on the Inconel 718 plate. The results imply that laser surface re-melting could modify the surface structure from a random grain orientation to a crystallographically layered structure. View this paper
