Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of additive manufacturing technologies, and discloses an additive manufacturing method and an additive manufacturing device with preheating functions. The additive manufacturing method includes carrying out raster preheating scanning on the surfaces of powder beds by the aid of rays under the control. The raster preheating scanning includes alternately scanning the surfaces of the powder beds by the rays along scanning paths in the horizontal directions and scanning paths in the vertical directions. The additive manufacturing method and the additive manufacturing device have the advantages that the surfaces of the powder beds can be comprehensively preheated and can be alternately scanned via the scanning paths in the horizontal directions and the scanning paths in the vertical directions, accordingly, temperature fields formed by means of preheating can be uniform, electric charge concentration can be prevented to the greatest extent, and excellent foundations can be laid for 3D (three-dimensional) printing; the problem that three-dimensional entity components become waste products due to incapability of detecting deformation of the surfaces of existing powder beds or low detection reliability of existing additive manufacturing devices and inaccurate detection results can be effectively solved, and wastage of materials and time can be prevented.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of additive manufacturing, in particular to an additive manufacturing method and an additive manufacturing device with a preheating function. Background technique [0002] Additive manufacturing (3D printing) is a manufacturing technique that creates three-dimensional solid parts by continuously fusing more than one thin layer of material. [0003] Preheating is an important process of electron beam metal 3D printing, including preheating the substrate before laying powder, and preheating each layer of powder laid. The preheating path is very important, and two aspects need to be considered: on the one hand, it is necessary to heat the substrate or powder layer as uniformly as possible; If the repulsive force exceeds a certain value, the powder will be scattered and raised, resulting in the failure of the printing process. Therefore, the quality of the preheating directly affects the quality of the 3D prin...
