Description	As a very common type of laser additive manufacturing technology, laser material deposition (LMD) is widely used, having exceptional application advantages including surface enhancing, repairing damaged parts with high value-add, and building functionally graded material. At present, the continuous wave laser is a common laser mode used in the LMD process. The investigation of pulse shaping, which can add a degree of control over the thermal history, is limited. In this study, the effects of pulse shaping on the geometrical characteristics, microstructure, and microhardness were investigated through conducting single-track experiments with different laser shapes, including continuous, rectangular, ramp up, ramp down, and hybrid ramp. The results indicated that the clads created by continuous and ramp up laser shape presented the maximum and minimum dimensions of geometrical characteristics, respectively. The rectangular and hybrid ramp laser shape deposited the clads with similar dimensions. The continuous laser shape produced the clad with the coarsest microstructure and lowest hardness because of the lowest cooling rate. The smallest grain size and highest hardness presented in the clad were seen with the rectangular laser shape owing to the biggest cooling rate. The cooling rates in ramp up and ramp down were restrained by the gradual heating and gradual cooling, respectively.
