Additive manufacturing device capable of conducting magnetic field control and parent metal transport

Abstract

The invention discloses an additive manufacturing device capable of conducting magnetic field control and parent metal transport. A magnetic field is applied in the metal laser solid forming quick solidification process, a thermoelectric current can be generated at the quickly solidified solid/liquid interface under the action of the magnetic field, the thermoelectric current and the magnetic field interact to generate thermoelectric magnetic force triggering melt flow, shearing is caused after the force effect is conducted on the end of dendritic crystal, thus, the dendritic crystal is broken, a lot of new crystal nucleuses are formed, and the nucleation rate is increased; and metal melt flow is inhibited by the magnetic field, and the segregation effect in the solidification process is relieved. According to the additive manufacturing device, different laser metal additive manufacturing parent metal transport devices are combined, and parent metal transport and structure control under the conditions of powder paving, powder feeding and wire feeding and other various printing conditions are achieved. The magnetic field control device is fixed to a laser transmitter to serve as a parent metal transport device, the effect that a laser molten pool is located at the center of the magnetic field all the time is ensured, control over the magnetic field is facilitated, and the influence of the magnetic field on the laser solid forming quick solidification process is further explored.
