Due to their unique properties, such as their high strength-to-weight ratio, Ti alloys could attract lots of attention in various industries. However, its inherent low machinability feature, as well as low thermal conductivity production of complex shape Ti components, is a real challenge. Therefore, additive manufacturing (AM) has been considered as a promising solution to produce Ti components. Nevertheless, the number of Ti alloys processed via AM technologies is limited. Hence, in this research, different Ti alloys have been developed and processed via various AM technologies so as to expand the application of this alloy in different sectors. The outcomes confirm that the new Ti alloys exhibited superior properties compared to the traditional alloys. This research opens up new possibilities for AM applications in high-tech sectors like aerospace, biomedical and automotive and highlights the potential of new Ti alloys processed via AM.
