Embodiment 1

[0019] Example 1: Such as figure 1 As shown, the 6061 aluminum alloy substrate 1 is selected as an example, the diameter of the welding wire 2 is 1.2mm, and the relative positional relationship of the aluminum alloy substrate 1, plasma arc nozzle 3 and MIG welding torch 4 is determined: the distance a between plasma arc nozzle and aluminum alloy substrate is 5mm, plasma The distance b between the arc nozzle and the MIG welding gun 4 is 4 mm, the distance between the aluminum alloy substrate and the MIG welding gun 4 is 12 mm; the current of the MIG welding gun 4 is 120 A; the current ratio of the plasma arc to the MIG welding gun 4 is 0.8. During forming, the plasma arc is in front and the MIG welding torch is behind. The plasma arc preheats the aluminum alloy while remelting the aluminum alloy to improve the flatness of the formed surface, and at the same time, it can effectively remove the oxide film and reduce the range of the heat affected zone. The oxide film on the surfac...

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of 3D printing, and particularly relates to a method for plasma arc assisted MIG additive manufacturing of aluminum alloy structures. Background technique [0002] Aluminum alloy has light weight, high specific strength, and strong corrosion resistance. It has been widely used in the structure of parts and components in the petrochemical, transportation, aerospace and other fields. In order to obtain a complex aluminum alloy structure, it is necessary to adopt additive manufacturing methods to achieve aluminum The direct forming of the alloy structure meets the demand for complex aluminum alloy parts. However, the forming process of aluminum alloy is easy to oxidize, and defects such as pores and cracks are prone to occur, which severely limits the application of additive manufacturing technology in the manufacturing process of complex aluminum alloy parts. [0003] At this stage, the methods that can be used for ...
