Popis: This work attempted to introduce high pressure to reduce pore generation in laser welding of selective laser melted AlSi10Mg, which is different from the traditional approach where the vacuum was preferred in laser welding of aluminum alloys. To understand these phenomena, the impacts of laser welding parameters and ambient pressure on the porosity and weld geometry were examined. Porosity ratio was found linearly increasing with the laser power or linear energy. High-speed imaging revealed that the large pores were formed by multiple merging of small pores, which explained the decrease in fine porosity (
