The effect of scanning strategy and heat-treatment on the tribological properties of Al–12Si fabricated using selective laser melting (SLM) were evaluated and compared with their cast counterparts (CC). The SLM sample shows a mesostructure and in addition, the microstructure consists of the Al rich...
