The diploma thesis deals with possibilities for processing aluminium alloy EN AW 2618 using Selective laser melting (SLM). The theoretical part contains basic knowledge about production by this technology and possibilities of evaluation of relative density of samples. It also contains an overview of the current state of knowledge about the processing of aluminium alloys by SLM technology. Above all, aluminium alloys of the series 2000, where the main alloying element is copper. In the experimental part testing samples were designed based on the research. These samples can be divided into three areas: single-track specimens, volume samples and samples for tensile testing. Single-track and volume samples were used to find appropriate processing parameters to achieve a relative density close to full volume of material. For this purpose, the effect of the different scanning strategies on the relative density of the sample were examined. The limiting factor has been the occurrence of small cracks in the broad range of parameters studied. Mechanical properties of samples produced by SLM were compared with extruded material. It was found that the material processed by SLM achieves only half the yield strength and tensile strength of extruded material. This is mainly due to the occurrence of small cracks and other defects in the structure of the material.

Master's thesis deals with the experimental determination of process parameters reaching densities >99 % for scandium modified aluminium alloy (Scalmalloy®) processed by SLM. The alloy achieves higher mechanical properties than the AlSi10Mg aluminum alloy commonly used. The theoretical part deals mainly with the results of Scalmalloy® alloys. Experimental bodies, testing methodology and evaluation method were designed on the basis of the theoretical parts,. The practical part is divided into four main stages: experimental determination of process parameters, a description of the effect of the parameters used on the relative density achieved, examination of the influence of process parameters on surface quality and mechanical testing. The mechanical properties were determined for the best parameters.

The master's thesis deals with properties of aluminium alloys prepared by SLM process. The teoretical part of thesis is focused on decribtion of selective laser melting technology, metallurgical defects and mechanical properties of aluminium alloys processed by this technology. The experimental part of this thesis deals with selections of the SLM process parameters suitable for samples preparation in bulk. Tensile testing at room temperature was used for evaluation of basic mechanical properties. Metallographic and fractographic analyses were performed for evaluation of the microstructure and fracture mechanisms. The materials characteristics obtained on SLM samples were compared with the properties of the same materials grade produced by conventional technologies.

In the work is used the processing of metallic material by the method of Selective Laser Melting. The main objective is to verify and describe the influence of the individual process parameters entering the production process when processing the alloy Cu7.2Ni1.8Si1Cr with SLM. This alloy contains 90 % copper. The first theoretical part of the thesis describes so far processed copper alloys with a high content of copper using the method of Selective Laser Melting.

The thesis deals with the processing of pure iron by Selective laser melting technology as a material with good electromagnetic properties. The main area is the optimization of the production of thin-walled samples, which monitor the influence of process parameters on the thickness and quality of the wall surfaces. In addition to the perpendicular walls, walls built at an angle of 45° are also examined. Another phase of the thesis is the determination of process parameters for bulk bodies to achieve the lowest porosity and high surface quality. An important part of the research is the application of acquired knowledge in the production of samples designed to test magnetic properties as well as part for a specific application. These considerations concern not only the setting of the printing parameters, but also the heat treatment and its influence on the magnetic and mechanical properties of the material. Mechanical properties were determined by tensile tests and hardness tests. All samples were made on a SLM 280HL using a 400W ytterbium laser.

The thesis deals with the design, construction and testing of two different metal powder coating equipment, which is able to work with SLM 280HL metal 3D printer. Since the field of multimaterial metal printing by selective laser melting (SLM) has not been significantly investigated yet, an overview of existing patents and possible approaches to the solution has been developed. The device has been successfully designed and a series of tests was carried out defining the issue of applying an improved head that uses a nozzle and an eccentric vibration motor. Based on the experiments performed, the coating parameters of the multimaterial layer of FeAm and 316L materials were defined. A control system for the partial process automation was created for the proposed device. The device was implemented in a printer that demonstrated both the ability to apply a single multimaterial layer of at least 50 m thickness, and the ability to produce a 3D multimaterial component comprised of up to 200 layers and containing material change across all axes.

Diploma thesis deals with a design and manufacture of oil cooler by technology Selective Laser Melting for Formula Student. The main goal of the design is to ensure optimal oil circuit cooling at a minimal mass. The design of manufactured oil cooler is based on a plate heat exchanger concept with optimized intakes by CFD simulations and heat exchange body with fins of thickness 0.17 mm. An analytical model was created. SLM process parameters were optimized for a thin walls printing, Subsequently, a fabrication of testing parts was finished for measuring pressure drops and performances of micro heat exchangers. Results were used for an accuracy improvement of the analytical model and for consequent optimization of heat exchange surface. Afterwards optimization was executed for inlets and outlets by using flow simulations. A prototype was built and verified on a test stand. Performance of the designed oil cooler is 4.5 kW for race mode, where temperature drop of oil circuit is 22 °C. The lightweight design weighs 320 g, which reduces more than 47 % of a current oil-air cooler weight. Furthermore, a centre of gravity is decreased by designed placement of the cooler.

Metallographic analysis, EBSD analysis and line EDS microanalysis were made on the samples. Tensile test at room temperature and hardness were carried out to determine the mechanical properties. Fractographic analysis was performed after tensile test.
