In an attempt to relate the laser-engineered net shaping (LENS) process parameters, laser power and laser travel speed, to the quality of LENS-produced parts, strain measurements were taken at several predetermined points within seven LENS AISI 410 thin plates using the neutron diffraction method. The residual stresses at these points were then calculated using the measured strain values to ascertain how the internal stress varies as a function of the input parameters and location. It is found that the component of the stress in the vertical direction (i.e., perpendicular to the raster direction of the laser/powder nozzle) is dominant, in agreement with previous reports, and relatively insensitive to variations in process parameters. This was confirmed with numerical simulations performed with a thermomechanical model developed using the commercial program SYSWELD. The simulations also showed a good qualitative agreement with the measured simulated stresses.
