Abstract

The invention discloses a treatment method for improving the performance of a 3D printing metal workpiece. The treatment method comprises the following steps of sequentially carrying out primary cryogenic treatment and primary tempering treatment; carrying out secondary cryogenic treatment and secondary tempering treatment on a metal for 3D printing. The 3D printing metal workpiece treated by the treatment method disclosed by the invention has the micro-structural characteristic that when the 3D printing metal workpiece is subjected to cryogenic treatment, due to ultra-low temperature effect, the internal microstructure of the metal workpiece is shrunk, the gap is reduced, and thus the density of the product is increased; meanwhile, under cryogenic treatment conditions, ultrafine carbides are precipitated, the fine dispersed carbides can hinder the movement of dislocation in the plastic deformation of the material, and thus the wear resistance of the metal workpiece is enhanced; the lattice of martensite is promoted to be changed at an ultra-low temperature environment, the internal microstress of the metal workpiece is reduced, and the microstructure is strengthened, so that the hardness, impact toughness and wear resistance of the metal workpiece are significantly increased, and the microstructure and overall performances of the metal workpiece are finally improved, thereby enhancing the mechanical properties of the 3D printing metal workpiece.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a processing method for improving the performance of metal parts, in particular to a processing method for improving the performance of 3D printing metal parts. Background technique [0002] 3D printing technology is rapidly changing traditional production methods and lifestyles. As a strategic emerging industry, the United States, Germany and other developed countries attach great importance to and actively promote this technology. Many experts believe that the new manufacturing technology represented by 3D printing technology characterized by digitalization, networking, personalization and customization will promote the third industrial revolution. The source of 3D printing technology can be traced back to rapid prototyping technology. Since the development of 3D computer-aided design (3DCAD), people hope to directly convert design into physical objects conveniently. The 3D printing technology is to divide the 3DCAD model in...
