Problems solved by technology

[0002] With the development of science and technology, aerospace, weaponry and other fields put forward new requirements for light-weight and high-strength load-bearing structures, but these structures are often complex in design, cumbersome in processing procedures, and require high precision, which cannot be met by traditional production processes. Processing requirements for these structures
[0003] Laser selective melting additive manufacturing technology (SLM) can effectively solve the manufacturing bottleneck of traditional processes, but aluminum alloy has high laser reflectivity and low absorption rate, which has always been one of the most difficult materials for SLM.
At present, the powder materials for aluminum alloy SLM additive manufacturing are relatively fixed, mainly based on AlSi series (such as AlSi 12 , AlSi 7 Mg, AlSi 10 Mg, etc.), but its strength is not high, it can only reach 260-380MPa, which cannot meet the requirements of light weight and high strength in aerospace, weaponry and other fields.
[0004] Taking the 7-series aluminum alloy as an example, the 7-series aluminum alloy is known for its high strength, but recent studies have shown that this type of alloy is formed by laser selective melting, and its internal structure has a large number of holes, microcracks and other defects, and its mechanical properties are extremely low ( 100MPa); and other grades of aluminum alloys cannot meet the requirements of strength higher than 500MPa
