Abstract

The invention provides a 3D printing method based on pulse current. The method comprises the following steps of using an amorphous alloy wire or a strip as a raw material, carrying out spot pressing on the amorphous alloy wire or the strip, welding by the pulse current, and stacking layer by layer to form a three-dimensional sample piece. According to the method, the pulse current is used as a heat source for amorphous alloy space additive manufacturing, on one hand, power consumption needed in the manufacturing process is far smaller than that of electron beams, lasers and other traditional heat sources, the energy utilization rate is increased, low-power-consumption additive manufacturing is achieved, on the other hand, the pulse current is used for rapid heating, so that an amorphous alloy is in a non-molten state with low viscosity, the problems that a molten pool is difficult to control under microgravity and heat dissipation and solidification are difficult and the like in a high-vacuum environment in a traditional 3D printing method of metal materials can be solved, and the stability of the space additive manufacturing process can be improved. Besides, point pressure rapid welding and layer-by-layer additive manufacturing are conducted on the amorphous alloy through the pulse current, the thermal action time in the additive manufacturing process is accurate and controllable, the amorphous structure of the raw materials can be kept, and the mechanical property of an additive sample piece is improved.
