Abstract :
In this Article, laser-based additive manufacturing (AM) of Ni-based superalloys has been evaluated. By reviewing past research and recognizing the challenges and benefits of additive manufacturing, the future of this path can be well described. For this purpose, it is very important and useful to know the target industries, the resulting microstructure, the relationship between the microstructure and the mechanical properties of the final part. In addition, the ways to prevent possible defects of this process are summarized in the report. This report tries to introduce this process in the direction of less damage to the environment and available resources. To be introduced as an environmentally friendly method for manufacturing parts needed for energy supply and transmission. In the future, more reports of this process will be provided by the authors of this review article.
