Problems solved by technology

[0013] However, if the powder bed temperature is too high, too much powder will be welded to the cross-sectional profile, which will not only affect the surface finish of the part, but also make it difficult to remove the powder in the inner hole, resulting in the failure of inner hole forming

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of additive manufacturing, and relates to a powder bed synchronous heating and melting additive manufacturing method which is used for realizing material additive manufacturing under the conditions of a vacuum environment and a high powder bed temperature. According to the method, synchronous electron beam heating is carried out on a non-part section area while selective melting deposition is carried out to form a part section, the powder bed temperature at the non-part section area is kept, large fluctuation of the powder bed temperature is avoided, and it is guaranteed that the staying time of electron beams in unit areas of different positions of a powder bed is equal, so that the energy densities of the electron beams received at the different positions of a preheating area are equal, the temperatures at different positions of the preheating area are uniform, the stability and consistency of the key technological parameter of the powderbed temperature in a powder bed melting technology are enhanced, the thermal stress of the formed part is reduced, the consistency of the performance of the formed part is improved, and conditions arecreated for additive manufacturing of refractory, difficult-to-weld and brittle materials.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of additive manufacturing, and relates to a powder bed synchronous heating and melting additive manufacturing method, which is used to realize material additive manufacturing under vacuum environment and high powder bed temperature conditions. Background technique [0002] The powder bed fusion technology in the additive manufacturing of parts has great advantages in the forming of complex structural parts and the forming of special materials. This process usually uses high-energy electron beams or laser beams as a heat source to sinter or melt materials layer by layer, so that materials are piled up layer by layer. Typical processes include selective laser melting (Selective Laser Melting, SLM) and electron beam selective melting (Electron Beam Selective Melting, EBSM). [0003] Among them, the laser selective melting technology has higher precision and smaller surface roughness. However, since the laser ...
