The β titanium alloy Ti-1300 is fabricated utilizing laser engineered net shaping (LENS) technology. This study systematically examine the microstructural evolution of the alloy along the deposition direction during the LENS process, and elucidate the intrinsic relationship between its mechanical properties and microstructure. The results indicate that the thermal cycling of each deposited layer in the LENS process has a profound impact on the microstructural evolution. Initially, columnar crystals are formed with a thickness of (15.6±1.2) mm, comprising approximately 20% of the total deposited thickness. Subsequently, these grains transform into equiaxed grains. Within the as-deposited grains, the microstructure undergo a transition from a basket-weave structure to a lamellar structure, and the discontinuous grain boundary α phase changes to a continuous grain boundary α phase along the deposition direction. Notably, the basket-weave microstructure imparts exceptional strength to the alloy. However, the continuous grain boundary α phase tends to promote intergranular fracture, resulting in reduced ductility.
