Problems solved by technology

Al-Si alloy is also different from other alloys (such as Fe, Ni, W and other alloys), and it is very easy to react with oxygen to form Al during smelting and casting. 2 o 3 Inclusions, leading to defects such as inclusions, pores, and segregation during solidification, which affect the density of its castings
[0003] In addition, traditional molding processes such as casting require multiple processes from ingot casting to machining to the final actual parts, and the material utilization rate is low. The material utilization rate of some complex parts is only about 10%, and The casting process has extremely high requirements on the mold, and some small parts with high complexity cannot even be formed by casting

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing nanoscale spherical Si-phase Al-Si alloy through selective laser melting. The method comprises the steps that a CAD three-dimensional model for forming parts is designed, and is converted into a data format STL file capable of being slit, a supporting body of a certain height is built at the bottom of the three-dimensional model, the three-dimensional model and the supporting body are slit into a plurality of layers, technological parameter setting is carried out, and data and parameters are guided into SLM equipment; a sealing device is filled with inert gas for atmosphere protection after being vacuumized, a base plate is fixed to a work table capable of ascending and descending, a layer of Al-Si alloy powder is evenly laid on the base plate through a powder feeding system, corresponding cutting layers are selectively scanned according to guided-in parameter lasers, the base plate is lowered by the thickness of one layer, and a layer of new Al-Si alloy powder is evenly laid on the base plate until scanning of all the layers is finished. In the method, no mold is needed, the utilization rate of materials is high, the mechanical property of the Al-Si alloy can be improved, and the production cost of parts in a complex shape can be lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a nanoscale spherical Si phase Al-Si alloy by using a selective laser melting technology, and belongs to the technical field of metal materials. Background technique [0002] Al-Si alloy is the cast aluminum alloy with the largest output and consumption. It has the advantages of good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, low thermal expansion coefficient, high specific strength and good thermal conductivity, which makes Al-Si alloy widely used in automobile pistons and engines. Groups, cylinder liners, hubs, bearings, bearing bushes, crankcases and other auto parts. The mechanical properties of Al-Si alloys are mainly determined by the morphology and distribution of eutectic Si in the Al matrix. There are usually a large number of needle-like or plate-like eutectic Si in the microstructure of cast Al-Si alloys, and even coarse Such a structure will severely split the Al matrix, reduce the mechanical ...
