In this study, the size of molten pool and the porosity of parts under different processing parameters are studied using numerical simulation. According to the results, the appropriate processing parameters were selected to simulate the temperature and residual stress distribution during the forming process of body-centered cube (BCC), face-centered cube (FCC) and rhombic dodecahedron (Dode) lattice structures. In addition, three lattice structures were fabricated via selective laser melting (SLM) technology, and quasi-static compression experiments were carried out to study their mechanical properties. The results show that the high temperature parts of the three structures are all under the node and their adjacent pillars, and the closer to the nodes, the higher the temperature. The residual stress of the Dode structure is the highest, reaching 1218.2 MPa. It is also found that the residual stress in the Z direction is the largest, which plays a dominant role in the forming process. Through compression experiments, it is found that diagonal shear failure occurs in all three lattice structures, and Dode shows the best compression performance.
