Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of 3D printing of casting sand molds and CAL calculation axial light solidification printing cross technology, and particularly relates to a calculation axial light solidification complex oil passage pipeline sand mold stereoscopic forming method. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the rapid development of the aerospace field, castings are gradually developing in the direction of complex thin-walled and multi-oil passage pipeline integration. In recent years, the rapidly developing 3D printing sand mold technology has advantages such as no need for molds, short production cycle of castings, and is suitable for the design and development of complex oil passage pipeline castings, which can significantly reduce the production difficulty of castings. However, due to the special forming principle of the sand mold 3D printing technology that loose sand is bonded and accumulated layer by layer, the parts inevitably have layering defects, which affect the precision and mechanical properties of the sand mold, and further affect the surface quality and performance of the castings. Moreover, the low-dimensional units are repeatedly manufactured to realize material accumulation, so as to manufacture a three-dimensional entity, which is slow in forming speed and low in forming efficiency, and it is difficult to realize the flow line type batch production of printed parts. For castings with small, slender and complex thin-walled oil passage pipelines, the traditional sand mold 3D printing technology cannot meet the development needs of modern casting. Therefore, at the present stage, a new sand mold manufacturing method needs to be proposed to provide a new reference for the production of engine castings with small, slender and complex thin-walled oil passage pipelines inside.

[0003] The calculation axial light solidification volumetric printing technology is a new type of 3D printing technology, which can provide faster printing speed than layer-by-layer printing manufacturing, and overcome the geometric and surface limitations of traditional layer-based 3D printing technology. This method is similar to performing a CT scan in reverse, which reconstructs a three-dimensional light dose distribution in the printing matrix by projecting a pattern light containing the center slice information of the printing model, and then quickly polymerizes the printing matrix to overcome the layering effect and realize the rapid forming of the printed part.

[0004] At the present stage, the printing matrix selected by the conventional calculation axial light solidification volumetric printing technology is mostly a material with high optical transparency. Until Madrid-Wolf et al. proposed a scheme for modifying the projection light intensity and other parameters by considering the scattering of light in a non-100% transparent printing matrix to improve the forming degree, which provides the possibility of realizing the calculation axial light solidification volumetric printing forming inside a turbid material. Based on the above research facts and considering the optical properties of silica sand and other sand materials, and aiming at the small, slender and complex structure of the engine sand mold manufacturing, the present application proposes a calculation axial light solidification complex oil passage pipeline sand mold stereoscopic forming method, which provides a new manufacturing idea for the small, slender and complex structure of the engine complex oil passage pipeline.
