Quality and Mechanical Properties of Austenitic Steel Samples Fabricated by an Additive Technology

Abstract—The austenitic steel samples fabricated by an additive technology are investigated. The experimentally determined parameters are as follows: the surface roughness, the repeatability of sample sizes, the porosity, the machinability, and the ultimate tensile strength. The determination of these properties is an important scientific and practical result, which makes it possible to draw a conclusion about the possibility of introducing additive production into precision instrument making.
