Abstract
• The effect of wire feeding direction on the microstructure of laser-directed energy deposited SS316L single tracks was studied. • The parameter optimisation is done to identify a common parameter set for all feed directions to give desired weld bead geometries. • Front & back feed beads exhibit near-perfect bead geometry, and the side wire feed conditions lead to a slightly skewed bead profile. This study investigates the effect of wire feeding direction on the microstructure of 316 stainless steel during the laser-directed energy deposition (L-DED) process. The process parameters were optimised by varying the scan speed, laser power, and wire feed rate to identify a common parameter set for all feed directions to give desired weld bead geometries. The identified process parameter window has shown that the conduction mode is preferred over the balling and keyhole modes. Comprehensive microstructural characterization using optical and electron microscopy has revealed that for the same parameters, the front wire feed had higher penetration, while the back wire feed had a wider bead with optimal penetration. The current findings are of significance for advancing wire-L-DED additive manufacturing for more complex component designs.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
