Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of additive forming and equipment manufacturing technology, in particular to a resistance heating and temperature measuring device for friction stir additive manufacturing and a use method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Additive manufacturing does not require a mold, is not limited by structural complexity, has high material utilization, and can effectively complement traditional manufacturing methods. However, traditional additive manufacturing technologies such as laser additive manufacturing and electric arc additive manufacturing involve solid-liquid phase change during the additive process, which can cause a series of problems such as porosity, evaporation and spatter. Friction stir additive manufacturing is a new additive manufacturing technology that does not involve solid-liquid phase change during the additive process. After severe plastic deformation, the material has a dense structure without pores and is composed of fine equiaxed grains, which has good mechanical properties, fatigue properties and ductility. In addition, it has a series of advantages such as low energy consumption, fast processing rate and wide application range, and is a very promising additive manufacturing technology.

[0003] During the friction stir additive manufacturing process, an axial pressure is used to tightly press a consumable rod against the substrate. High-speed rotation and friction cause material deposition. After a short pause, the substrate is moved, causing the material to be deposited on the substrate or the previous additive layer in the opposite direction of the substrate travel direction. The above process is repeated multiple times to achieve the purpose of additive manufacturing. During the additive process, the rod and the material of the additive layer are the same, and have the same thermal physical parameters. Therefore, in order to control the deposition direction of the material during the additive process, the temperature difference between the two sides needs to be increased, that is, the temperature on one side of the rod needs to be high and the strength needs to be low, and the substrate side needs to be cooled quickly and the temperature needs to be low and the strength needs to be high, in order to achieve the purpose of directional additive manufacturing. In addition to cooling the substrate with cooling water, the temperature on one side of the rod can also be heated.

Figure 5

[0053] The method for testing the resistance heating and temperature measuring device for friction stir additive manufacturing of the embodiment comprises the following steps:

[0056] ​3) Insert the resistance heating rod 7 into the heating hole 22 of the rod 2, then inject the heat-conducting silica gel, and insert the fixing device into the fixing hole 23 of the rod 2 to fix the heating resistance rod 7, then insert the upper end of the rod 2 with the fixed heating resistance rod 7 into the hollow main shaft 15 and fix it;

[0057] 4) Insert the thermocouple 3 into the temperature measuring hole 21 of the rod 2, inject the heat-conducting silica gel, and connect the thermocouple 3 with the thermocouple socket 5 on the outer side of the shaft sleeve by the first wire 4, so that the thermocouple 3 is connected with the temperature controller 20 through the thermocouple socket 5 and the conductive ring;

[0058] 5) Place the rod 2 vertically above the base plate 1, turn on the temperature controller 20, start the heating resistance rod 7 to preheat the rod 2, heat the rod 2 to a pre-set temperature of 250℃, and start the thermocouple 3 to monitor the temperature of the rod 2; start the friction stir additive manufacturing when the temperature reaches 200℃, so that the hollow main shaft 15, the shaft sleeve 19 and the rod 2 rotate synchronously, thereby driving the rod 2 to move transversely and press down, so that the material is deposited on the base plate 1 to complete a single layer of additive manufacturing. In this embodiment, the processing parameters of the additive process are as follows: rotation speed 800 rpm, travel speed 40 mm / min, and pressing speed 10 mm / min, and the travel starts after 2 min of pressing.

[0059] The test results of the rod temperature when the additive manufacturing is performed by the above method are shown in Table 1. Figure 2 As shown in Table 1, the rod temperature is heated to 200℃ by the resistance heating and temperature measuring device of this embodiment after 6 min of heating, while the base plate temperature is only about 25℃, so that the temperature on one side of the rod is much higher than that on the other side, thereby achieving the purpose of increasing the temperature difference between the two sides.

[0060] 6) When the next layer of additive is performed, the heating resistance rod 7 and the thermocouple 3 are re-installed by the steps 1)-5) described above, and then the corresponding additive processing program is performed, wherein the heating temperature and the processing parameters can be adjusted according to the actual additive requirements.
