Abstract

The invention provides a laser-dipulse MIG (metal-inert gas welding) composite heat source arc AM (additive manufacturing) method for an aluminum alloy and workpieces. According to the method, low-power pulse laser and dipulse MIG arc are adopted as composite heat sources, an aluminum alloy welding wire is molten to perform surfacing on a substrate according to a designated path, surfacing layersare overlapped layer by layer, and a required aluminum alloy structural member is formed. According to the laser-dipulse MIG composite heat source arc AM method for the aluminum alloy and the workpieces, the low-power pulse laser and the dipulse MIG arc are composited, characteristics of two technologies of laser welding and arc welding are achieved, after the laser and the dipulse MIG are composited, pulse laser with high-peak power acts on a molten pool periodically, so that liquid metal in the molten pool is in a circulation of backward flowing-forward refilling, and equivalently, a strongstirring effect is realized; by means of the impact effect of dipulse waveform, the pore defect in a formed sample can be effectively reduced and even eliminated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of additive manufacturing of metal materials, and relates to an aluminum alloy low-power pulse laser-double pulse MIG composite heat source arc additive manufacturing method. Background technique [0002] Aluminum alloy is light in weight, high in specific strength, and strong in corrosion resistance. It has been widely used in the structure of parts and components in petrochemical, transportation, aerospace and other fields. The direct forming of alloy structure meets the demand for complex aluminum alloy parts. However, the aluminum alloy forming process is easy to oxidize, and at the same time, it is easy to produce defects such as pores and cracks, which seriously limits the application of additive manufacturing technology in the manufacturing process of complex aluminum alloy parts. [0003] The methods available for aluminum alloy additive manufacturing at this stage include: laser additive manufactur...
