Example Embodiment

[0041] Example 1: One figure 1 The shown method for additive manufacturing of metal parts based on curve profile features

[0042] Manufacture of parts with a single curve profile feature with constant width:

[0043] 1. Establish CAD geometric models of metal parts and extract STL models of parts;

[0044] 2. The width of the metal part model is 6.5mm and the length is 100mm. Considering that there is a certain blank margin, a sheet with a width of 7mm can be selected; according to the design of the resistance welding process, a metal sheet with a thickness of 2mm can be used. Parts with good morphology, structure and mechanical properties are obtained. Therefore, a metal sheet with a width of 7 mm and a thickness of 2 mm is used as the raw material for welding.

[0045] 3. The contour point set of the STL model is extracted and filled by the layered slicing software to generate a G code that contains manufacturing information such as feeding thickness 2mm and length 100mm and can b...

[0049] Example 2, one figure 2 The manufacturing method of metal parts based on the physical manufacturing of the parts shown

[0050] For this kind of metal parts with holes in the middle and wide width:

[0051] 1. The outer contour of the metal part model is 50mm in width, 100mm in length, and 40mm in the middle hole diameter. Build a CAD geometric model of the metal part and extract the STL model of the part;

[0052] 2. Use metal sheet with a width of 10mm and a thickness of 1mm as the raw material for welding.

[0053] 3. According to the STL model and the width and thickness of the raw material, the contour point set of the STL model is extracted and filled by the layered slicing software to generate the G code that can be recognized by the machine tool. This G code can control the movement of the workbench according to the planned part manufacturing path, that is, first control to complete the single-layer and multi-channel manufacturing of the entire part plane, and then con...

[0063] Manufacturing of metal parts with local bosses:

[0064] 1. The outer contour of the metal part model is 24mm in width, 150mm in total length, 50mm in length at the two ends, and 12mm in width respectively. The CAD geometry model of the metal part is established, and the STL model of the part is extracted;

[0065] 2. Use metal sheet with a width of 12mm and a thickness of 3mm as the raw material for welding.

[0066] 3. According to the STL model, as well as the width and thickness of the raw material, the contour point set of the STL model is extracted and filled by the layered slicing software to generate the G code that can be recognized by the machine tool.

[0067] The G code can control the movement of the worktable according to the planned part manufacturing path, that is, control to complete the manufacturing of a single layer and multiple plane...

Abstract

The invention discloses a metal part additive manufacturing method based on contour features, which comprises the following steps: 1, establishing a metal part CAD (Computer Aided Design) geometric model, and extracting an STL(Standard Template Library) model; 2, determining the manufacturing direction of the metal part according to the contour features and the complexity of the metal part, and carrying out the route planning on the part additive manufacturing; 3, rotationally slicing the STL model by using a layered slicing software, and generating a control command by a computer according to the contour information; 4, sending panel veneer with set width and thickness by a panel veneer feeding mechanism under the control of the control command, and shearing; and 5, finishing the welding of layers under the actions of heat generated by resistance welding or friction stirring welding as well as rolling, and meanwhile removing contour burrs through compounding the same-station milling, repeating the step 4 and the step 5, till finishing the forming of the whole part, and if not meeting the part precision requirement, adding the part finish machining step at last. Compared with the prior art, the manufacturing method has the advantages of less process, high forming quality, short manufacturing period, low cost and the like.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention is a metal parts forming manufacturing technology, which is specifically for the manufacture method of metal parts based on contour -based characteristics. Background technique [0002] Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing (RPM) originated in the late 1980s. Due to the unique and technological advantages of its principles, fast prototype manufacturing technology verified plastic, paraffin, paper, etc.Non -metallic prototype rapid forming technology, to directly or indirectly prepare the rapid manufacturing technology of various molds, and then to the current fast metal parts quickly manufacturing technology, rapid prototype manufacturing technology has achieved rapid development and practical application.At this stage, there are about 30 rapid manufacturing technologies of metal parts. The classification is mainly classified according to the characteristics of thermal source.) And laser near -shaped manufacturing (Lenshaping (Lens); ele...
