Abstract
The paper presents the possibilities of 3D printing of chosen titanium alloy for manufacturing ready made parts. Results of examination of the surface topography of material manufactured using the AM 250 device by RENISHAW for laser sintering using the SLM method have been presented. 3D printing of metal parts has the potential to revolutionize the market of manufacturing and supplying parts. It makes it possible to dissipate manufacturing and to produce parts on request at lower cost and less energy consumption. The chosen parameters of the surface topography of titanium alloy under investigations directly after printing can differ depending on the distance from the base plate. Surface roughness parameters, isotropy and Abbott-Firestone curve after machining were also identified.
