During laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF) the printed material is subjected to multiple fast heating and cooling cycles when the laser interacts with neighboring tracks or layers above. The complex thermal his-tory influences the final microstructure and the macroscopic properties of the printed part. In this work, we demonstrate how high-speed in situ X-ray diffraction in transmission mode can be used to measure temperature profiles and cooling rates in a Ti-6Al-4V single-track wall. During the laser remelting of the top layer, a temperature exceeding the E. transus temperature (TE. ti 1252 K) is measured up to 150 gm below the surface. The maximum observed cooling rates vary from 106 K/s at the top surface, to 105 K/s at a depth of 135 gm and 104 K/s at a depth of 255 gm. Based on the temporal evolution of the various crys-tallographic phases, the dimensions of the melt pool and the high-temperature E. zone surrounding the melt pool are estimated. It is anticipated that the data obtained from in situ measurements in transmis-sion mode on a thin wall combined with in situ measurements in reflection mode on a bulk sample will allow verification and validation of finite element models used in L-PBF processing.(c) 2022 The Authors.
