The use of additive manufacturing processes keeps growing in aerospace and biomedical industry. Among the numerous existing technologies, the Electron Beam Melting process has advantages (good dimensional accuracy, fully dense parts) and disadvantages (powder handling, support structure, high surface roughness). Analyzes of the surface characteristics are interesting to get a better understanding of the EBM operations. But that kind of analyzes is not often found in the literature. The main goal of this study is to determine if it is possible to improve the surface roughness by modifying some parameters of the process (scan speed function, number of contours, order of contours, etc.) on samples with different thicknesses. The experimental work on the surface roughness leads to a statistical analysis of 586 measures of EBM simple geometry parts.

The fast growing of Additive Manufacturing (AM) leads us to study the functionality of parts built by these processes. Recently, the Electron Beam Melting process and the Direct Melting Laser Sintering process are used to produce parts in the biomedical and aeronautical fields. The Ti6Al4V is largely used in these fields. This paper present an experimental study of machining Ti6Al4V alloy produced by Electron Beam Melting (EBM) before and after HIPping (Hot Isostatic Pressing). The results shows that the hipping has no significant influence on specific cutting pressure.
