A complex of mathematical models and their computer realization means for numerical prediction of the kinetics of temperature fields, phase and structural states, mechanical stresses and strains in layer-by-layer formation of typical products of titanium-based alloys was developed. The peculiarities of VT6 titanium alloy state kinetics, depending on the technological parameters of production, were investigated on the typical examples of electron beam surfacing of T-shaped beam structures, from these alloys produced by xBeam 3D Metal Printer technology. The impact of the substrate thickness on the regularities of temperature field development during layer-by-layer formation of beam elements and on the structural state of the metal after complete cooling is shown. In the case of forming a thick-walled T-shaped product, it is shown that an important factor that allows obtaining a low level of residual stresses, is optimization of the delay time between deposition of each of the beads, to provide the conditions for uniform cooling of the structure. 11 Ref., 14 Figures.
