Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of metal pipe manufacturing, and specifically, relates to a manufacturing method of a large-diameter complex-shaped metal special section pipe through an additive manufacturing method. The method comprises the following steps: performing solid modeling of a pipe through a computer three-dimensional modeling software, and considering enough allowance for subsequent processing during design; making a pipe blank according to the obtained three-dimensional computer model through adoption of an additive manufacturing method (also called 3D printing), such as laser melting deposition (LMD) or laser engineered net shaping (LENS), suitable for metal materials; and carrying out proper precision machining of the pipe blank through conventional methods such as machining or grinding. Compared with a traditional technical method, such as casting, forging, and machining, the method has the advantages that a metal structure and mechanical properties of a pipe become more uniform and stable, the machining difficulty is greatly reduced, the manufacturing process is quickened, and massive raw materials are saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metal pipe fitting manufacturing, and particularly relates to a method for manufacturing a metal special-shaped pipe fitting with a large diameter and a complex shape by means of an additive manufacturing method. Background technique [0002] Nuclear power, military, aerospace and other industries demand a large number of special-shaped pipe fittings with high performance requirements, difficult material processing, and complex shapes, which are extremely difficult to manufacture, and often ordered in small quantities. This makes the manufacturing cost of such special-shaped fittings high and the lead time long. [0003] Take the main pipe used in the third-generation nuclear power technology AP1000 as an example. The height of the nozzle is 387mm, the outer diameter of the nozzle is 616mm), and they are spaced apart in the axial direction and at an angle of 45° in the circumferential direction. The pip...
