This paper examines a functionally graded material, fabricated by fiber laser melting deposition and laser synchronous preheating that incrementally grades from 316L to Inconel625. The cracking behaviour, microstructure evolution and microhardness were determined as the variation of position within the graded materials. The cracks in the non-preheated samples occurred at the deposited layers from 90% 316L/10% Inconel625 to 70% 316L/30% Inconel625, and no cracks were produced in the preheated samples. Precipitation of Nb- and Mo-enrich phases was experimentally identified to be the main cause of cracking. The microstructure of the preheated samples changed from the cellular dendrites to prominent columnar dendrites, and the precipitated phases were transformed from (γ + Laves) eutectic phase to (γ + NbC) phase with the increase of Inconel625. Microhardness presented an approximate linear distribution along the gradient direction. Work shows that microstructure and internal stress can be improved by laser synchronous preheating, thereby contributing to suppress cracking for the functionally graded material.
