The paper proposes the reduction of the surface roughness and improvement of its strength properties for metallic materials and products fabricated by additive manufacturing. The proposed technique implies the creation of a 2 µm thick metal film on the doped surface layer by the vacuum arc deposition and pulsed electron-beam processing of the film/substrate system. The proposed technique of the film (Zr)/substrate (VT6) system processing provides a 25 times reduction of the surface roughness and improves its strength properties by 1.5 times.
