Abstract

The present invention proposes a multi-layer single-channel continuous arc additive manufacturing method and system for metal structural parts. The method adopts a welding machine as a heat source, a metal wire as a forming material, and the welding device is driven by a robot according to a planned continuous spiral. Slicing path motion for arc additive manufacturing on a substrate. First, select the welding wire and substrate needed to form a specific metal structure; then generate a continuous spiral slice path; finally, the welding gun moves according to the generated continuous spiral path under the drive of the robot, and the servo system drives the welding gun mechanical arm according to the calculated spiral path, The welding torch is driven by the welding torch manipulator to print a single-pass weld seam along a predetermined trajectory, and the height of the welding torch from the substrate is gradually increased during the printing process according to the helical path. The continuous spiral path makes the height of the welding torch from the substrate gradually increase during the entire 3D printing process, but keeps the dry elongation constant, and the arc will not be extinguished during the entire printing process, and finally a metal structure with excellent performance is formed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a multilayer single-channel continuous arc additive manufacturing method and system for metal structural parts, belonging to the field of additive manufacturing. Background technique [0002] Additive Manufacturing technology (Additive Manufacturing, AM) is also known as "entity free manufacturing", "3D printing technology", etc. Compared with traditional subtractive manufacturing (cutting) technology, it is a "bottom-up" The manufacturing method of material accumulation is based on mathematical modeling and based on the principle of discrete accumulation, which is an emerging manufacturing technology that accumulates materials layer by layer to produce solid parts. After nearly a century of development, additive manufacturing technology has realized the rapid manufacturing of organic materials, inorganic non-metallic materials, and metal material products. For metal materials, the additive manufacturing technology is classifi...
