EOS Titanium Ti64 Grade 5 for EOS M 290 | 80 µm
EOS M 290 - 80 µm - TRL 3
Process Information Metal
This process product is optimized for faster production of parts with properties according to ASTM F1472. For most demanding applications, Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) is recommended to optimize high cycle fatigue properties
Main Characteristics:
- Parameter set for fast and cost efficient production of Ti64 parts in small series or serial production
- 15 - 30 % faster than EOS Ti64 Speed (60 µm) parameter set
- 50 % faster than EOS Ti64 Grade 5 HiPer (40 µm) parameter set
- Material fulfills ASTM F2924 mechanical requirements in heat treated state. For fatigue critical applications, HIP is recommended as post-treatment.

As manufactured microstructure for additively manufactured Ti64ELI consists of fully acicular alpha prime (α‘) phase.
Standard heat treatments for titanium do not necessarily produce desired microstructures due to this different starting microstructure.
Heat treatment is recommended to relieve stresses and to increase ductility. Use of vacuum furnace is highly recommended to avoid the formation of alpha case on the surface of the parts.
Heat Treatment Description:
120min (± 30 min) at 800 °C (± 10°C) measured from the part in vacuum (1.3x10-3-1.3x10-5 mbar) followed by cooling under vacuum or argon quenching.
Material mechanical properties are relatively insensitive to changes in heating and cooling rates, but longer treatment times may result in decreased strength and increased elongation.
Parts heat treated according to the recommended heat treatment have a microstructure consisting of fine alpha + beta (α + β) phase.
Elongation at break A and reduction of area Z in heat treated state: Mean values above the standard limit, some outliers below the limit.
