To optimize the microstructure and properties of TC4 specimens formed by selective laser melting (SLM), the test program of formed specimens by the variable parameter forming process (VPFP) was designed based on the quantitative parameter forming process (QPFP). The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of the VPFP on the surface morphology, tensile properties, and microstructure of the specimens. The test results show that the surface morphology and tensile properties of the specimens were better formed by the VPFP. The internal holes of the specimens formed by the VPFP were small in volume and occupied a relatively small proportion, and the density could reach 99.7%. When the laser power was 300 W-260 W and equally divided into six hierarchies, the tensile strength could reach 1185.214 MPa by VPFP, but the elongation had no obvious change. The number of secondary acicular martensite α' phases was decreased in the microstructure of the specimens formed with VPFP. With the superposition of the hierarchy, the length of the primary acicular martensite α' phase became shorter, the width became larger, and the width of the columnar crystal β phase became smaller. The VPFP is used to change the inherent method of forming specimens with the same parameters, which provides a new idea for SLM-forming structures; the test provides data and yields a theoretical research basis for forming the specimens process method.
