Problems solved by technology

However, when TIG welding is used for additive manufacturing, due to the split design of the welding torch and welding wire, in order to feed the welding wire smoothly, the angle between the welding torch and the welding wire generally needs to be kept at 55-75°, which seriously hinders the welding torch from being used in complex The accessibility of structural forming limits the flexibility and adaptability of automatic TIG welding
In addition, clamps are used to fix the welding wire on the welding torch. During the welding process, due to problems such as the mismatch between wire feeding speed and current parameters, the clamps often inevitably shift or rotate, which in turn affects the accuracy and reliability of wire feeding, resulting in welding decline in quality

Abstract

The invention discloses a manufacturing system and a manufacturing method of a double-sided alternate TOPTIG cold wire additive. TOPTIG welding arc is adopted as a heat source, high-strength steel, stainless steel, aluminum alloy and other wire materials are smelted, the alternating layer-by-layer stacking of metal on the two sides of a forming substrate is achieved through the overturning movements of a positioner, and the manufacturing and processing of two forming parts which are symmetric or asymmetric to the substrate are completed at one time. The manufacturing system can effectively solve the problem that an MIG electric arc additive is poor in forming precision and high in defect, the flexibility of a traditional TIG electric arc additive welding gun is poor, the single-sided additive forming substrate is serious in deformation and the like, the size precision, the quality reliability and the production efficiency of the additive forming parts are greatly improved, and automation is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metal additive manufacturing, and in particular relates to a double-sided alternating TOPTIG cold wire additive manufacturing system and a manufacturing method. Background technique [0002] Additive manufacturing is an advanced processing and manufacturing method with a modern concept, and it is a near-net shape technology. Current research and applications are mainly focused on laser additives and arc additives. Laser additive is characterized by precise dimensional control of formed parts, but the disadvantage is that the forming speed is slow, it is not suitable for processing medium and large components, and the equipment cost is high. Arc additive is a low-cost metal additive manufacturing method that uses an electric arc as a heat source, and is stacked layer by layer according to the planned path. The equipment is simple and the stacking efficiency is high. It is more suitable for the processing a...
