This research examines the microstructure and microhardness in the additive manufacturing process using the laser metal deposition method with the deposition of Inconel 718 powder on the Inconel 738 substrate. For this purpose, deposition with different laser power was performed on different substrates, and the microstructure and hardness of the layers were studied. Three layers of Inconel 718 powder were deposited on the substrates. The results show that the laser power parameter in the deposition process significantly affects the microstructure of the samples. By increasing the laser power by 100 W, the distance between the phases γ' in the substrate and γ'' in the layers decreased significantly. With increasing laser power, an increase in the geometric dimensions and volume percentage of the γ'' phase was also observed. In addition, increasing the laser power decreased the volume percentage of the Laves phase. By measuring the microhardness of the deposition layers, it was found that the hardness of the third layer decreases with increasing laser power.
