Abstract

The invention provides a method for improving anisotropy of an additive manufacturing titanium alloy through pulse current, and solves the problems of high energy consumption, high time consumption, difficulty in popularization and poor effect on large components in an existing post-treatment technology. The method comprises the following steps: (1) the surface of the additive manufacturing alloy component is cleaned; (2) the alloy is fixed through a clamp and then connected to the two ends of a pulse power source, and the clamp and the workpiece keep complete contact; (3) the clamped component is horizontally placed on a specific device, and is kept horizontal; (4) the voltage, the frequency and the action time are adjusted, and the additive manufacturing titanium alloy is treated through pulse current; and (5) the pulse power source is turned off, and the component is taken down after being cooled to the room temperature. The method has the advantages of being simple in process, rapid in implementation, capable of easily achieving batch production, capable of being applied to large workpiece treatment, wide in application range and the like, and can be applied to additive manufacturing of the titanium alloy, stainless steel, an aluminum alloy, a high-temperature alloy and the like and corresponding components.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of forming and processing materials for laser additive manufacturing, and in particular relates to a processing method for improving the anisotropy of the microstructure and performance of titanium alloys manufactured by using pulse current. Background technique [0002] Titanium alloys have the characteristics of high specific strength, good corrosion resistance, and high heat resistance, and are often used to manufacture important load-bearing components such as beams, joints, and bulkheads in important structures. These components have high requirements on the mechanical properties and anisotropy of properties of alloys. [0003] Titanium alloys have high resistance to deformation during cold working, and it is difficult to obtain parts with complex shapes. Additive manufacturing technology provides a solution for the processing of complex-shaped titanium alloy parts. Through high-power laser / electron beam and ot...
