Abstract

The invention relates to 316L stainless steel powder for the 3D printing technology and a preparation method thereof. The vacuum melting technology is adopted for the method, an ultrasonic vibration and air flow classification method is used for matching powder of different granularities, and the 316L stainless steel powder suitable for the 3D printing technology of different types of metal is prepared through the vacuum degassing technology. Compared with the prior art, the 316L stainless steel powder has the advantages of being high in sphericity degree, uniform in granularity distribution, low in oxygen content, low in impurity content, capable of meeting performance requirements of different 3D printing technologies for powder material and promoting the development of the metal material increasing manufacturing technology and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of metal powder preparation, in particular to a 316L stainless steel powder used for 3D printing technology and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] 3D printing is a manufacturing technology that uses lasers or electron beams and other means, based on three-dimensional modeling, to add and accumulate materials layer by layer under computer control to directly quickly and accurately form parts, also known as "additive manufacturing". Additive manufacturing technology does not require traditional tools, fixtures and multi-processing procedures. Using 3D design data, parts of any complex shape can be quickly and accurately manufactured on one device. Compared with traditional material removal (or deformation) Processing and common special processing technology, additive manufacturing technology has a very high material utilization rate. [0003] Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is a method for direct...
