Problems solved by technology

As one of the 3D printing (additive manufacturing) technologies, SLS technology is suitable for rapid manufacturing of parts with complex structures and special shapes, and can meet the rapid prototyping manufacturing requirements of various ceramic parts such as integral and split parts; and SLS technology There is no need to set up a support structure during the molding process, which simplifies the post-processing process of the molded parts, which is expected to solve the problems of long production cycle, high mold cost, and inability to meet the new requirements of traditional investment precision casting in the manufacture of complex-shaped ceramic cores and shells. Outstanding Issues in Product Development Rapid Response Demand
[0004] In recent years, there have been relevant reports on the rapid prototyping of ceramic materials using selective laser sintering technology. For example, CN200510020015.5 discloses a preparation method of laser sintering rapid prototyping silicon carbide ceramics, which adopts laser sintering technology to form silicon carbide powder. Then metal silicon is infiltrated and treated with lye to obtain complex-shaped silicon carbide ceramics. However, the silicon carbide powder used in this method needs to be sprayed and granulated to ensure good fluidity. The preparation process of raw materials is cumbersome. The immersion metal silicon process is difficult to control, and defects such as pores are likely to remain; in addition, CN201010222794.8 discloses a rapid prototyping manufacturing method for ceramic cores, which first adopts the SLS method to form a mixed powder of low-temperature strengthening agent and ceramic powder, and then brushes Or soak high-temperature binder (silica sol, alumina sol or phosphoric acid solution, etc.) and carry out pre-firing and high-temperature sintering respectively to obtain ceramic core products, but the ceramic sample volume density obtained by this method is small, and the strength is low
Therefore, the current selective laser sintering technology in the rapid prototyping of ceramic materials still has problems such as low volume density of the formed sample, large sintering shrinkage rate (poor dimensional accuracy), and low strength. Further applications in the investment casting industry

Background technique [0002] Investment casting is a production technology that can produce light-weight, thin-walled and complex-shaped castings that are hardly restricted by the size, shape and quality of parts. Therefore, it is one of the main technologies for preparing high-temperature precision alloy castings, especially suitable for Production of aero-engine turbine blades, turbine discs, guide belts and combustion chambers. The current investment precision casting process has the problems of complex ceramic mold (shell, core) preparation process, lengthy and low forming rate. At the same time, because the core and shell of traditional investment casting are formed separately, errors are prone to occur when combined. , Which greatly limits the production efficiency...
