Abstract Component ratio is a core parameter in the formulation design of composites and has a significant influence on the main mechanical properties of 316L stainless steel/polyethersulfone (PES) composite parts fabricated by selective laser sintering. In this paper, a simplified three-dimensional powder-bed model was established using ANSYS Workbench to numerically simulate the selective laser sintering forming process of 316L stainless steel/PES composites with five different component ratios (φ316L=0, 9.1%, 16.7%, 28.6%, 33.3%). The effects of component ratio on residual stress, tensile stress, and bending stress were analyzed, and tensile and bending tests were performed on the composites using an electronic universal testing machine. Numerical simulation results show that when φ316L is in the range of 16.7%-28.6%, the maximum residual stress of the parts is minimized and the residual stress distribution uniformity is optimal. The maximum tensile stress of the part with φ316L=28.6% is significantly higher than that of the other groups, reaching 3.7 MPa. Meanwhile, the part with φ316L=16.7%, the maximum bending stress is 36.2 MPa with no obvious local stress concentration. Experimental results indicate that the tensile strength reaches the highest value of 3.9 MPa at φ316L=28.6%, while the bending strength peaks at 36.5 MPa at φ316L=16.7%. The experimental results are consistent with the trends of numerical simulations, verifying the reliability and accuracy of the numerical simulation method. Considering both tensile and bending properties comprehensively, the recommended volume fraction of 316L stainless steel in the composite is 16.7%- 28.6%, which can be selected according to the emphasis on tensile or bending performance in practical applications. This study clarifies the optimal ratio range and the variation law of mechanical properties for 316L stainless steel/PES composites, providing a theoretical basis and data support for the formulation optimization and mechanical property improvement of selective laser sintered 316L stainless steel/PES composite parts.
