Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to 3D printing, in particular to a device for refining and additively manufacturing titanium alloy grains, and belongs to the technical field of additive manufacturing. Background technique [0002] Laser additive manufacturing technology was developed in the 1980s. It combines laser additive manufacturing technology with the rapid prototyping principle of rapid prototyping technology to form a new rapid manufacturing technology. First, the solid model of the part is formed in the computer through the 3D CAD software, and then the model established by CAD is layered according to a certain thickness, and then the 3D solid model is converted into a 2D outline model, and then used under the control of the machine tool or robot. Methods such as synchronous powder feeding and laser deposition fill a given shape point by point with metal materials in a certain path until a three-dimensional solid shape is formed. [0003] It can be kno...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] In this method, due to the limitation of the power of the ultrasonic equipment, during the solidification process of the deposited metal, due to the low fluidity of the molten metal and rapid solidification, the ultrasonic wave cannot produce cavitation inside the molten metal, and cannot produce sufficient nucleation. On the other hand, due to the upward transmission of ultrasonic waves from the workbench, the ability of the deposited layer to receive ultrasonic waves is different at different heights, and the ability to control columnar crystals is limited.

[0006] 2. The electromagnetic stirring method, similar to the ultrasonic vibration method, suppresses the formation and growth of columnar crystals through the action of external force stirring the molten pool. Limited ability to improve organizational performance

[0007] 3. Heat treatment method, which is a common method for processing titanium alloys. However, during laser additive manufacturing, especially in the process of manufacturing l
