Attempts of defining of machinability of manufactured details relative to research aimed to create macro composites with defined strengthening structure made using selective laser melting (SLM technology) were presented. The structures are made of significant different materials than the filling and that causes a problem with choosing the right tools and parameters for the whole element. That is why there were manufactured preliminary tests of achieving similar surface structure while machining manufactured samples. Measurements of surface parameters were made using confocal microscope. Borders between strengthening structure and filler were observed in order to check if the materials were separated during machining. There was also observed wear of machining tools made of different materials after machining with different parameters.

The present study aims to reveal the mechanism of element vaporization of Ti-6Al-4V alloy during selective laser melting (SLM). The equations of Redlich–Kister and the thermodynamics principles were employed to calculate the vaporization thermodynamics, which contributes to the obtaining the vaporization kinetic based on the Chapman-Enskog theory and the diffusion model. According to the achieved vaporization model, the elements with the most prominent tendency and flux to vaporize were distinguished. Moreover, the effect of the process parameters on the vaporization of Al and Ti is experimentally investigated using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP) technology. The analyzed results of the chemical composition of the powders and builds show a great agreement with the kinetic results calculated by the vaporization model. Notably, the element vaporization can be curbed by regulating the laser energy input.
