Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a surface cladding and texturing integrated forming device, belonging to the technical field of laser cladding. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, studies have found that inserting microtextures on the surface of the tool can improve its wear resistance and anti-adhesion properties, thereby improving its service performance. Laser processing has become a common method for preparing microtextures due to its advantages of simple operation, strong controllability and high efficiency. However, there are many problems with laser preparation technology at present: ① Laser preparation of microtextures causes the material to liquefy rather than vaporize due to the Gaussian distribution of laser energy. Part of the liquefied alloy material flows into the pit, resulting in poor surface quality inside the pit. Some other materials splash out of the pit, forming a remelting layer around the pit, which seriously affects the anti-wear and friction reduction effect. ② When laser cladding is performed on a surface with complex curvature, the curvature of the surface may cause unstable flow of the molten pool and difficulty in forming. In addition, the accuracy of the placement of the microtexture on the front face will affect its positive effect. ③ During the laser processing process, the tool undergoes rapid temperature changes, which will affect its surface integrity and reduce tool performance.
[0003] For problem 1, the advantages of laser cladding micro-texture preparation are used to make up for the defects of laser configuration process. The integrated forming technology of laser cladding and texturing can solve the problems of internal pores around micro-textures and poor tool wear resistance, while enhancing surface performance. Among them, the powder feeding method of laser cladding will affect the integrity of the cladding surface. When the synchronous powder feeding method is used, interference occurs in the recast layer around the micro-textures with smaller spacing, which increases the surface roughness of the substrate and aggravates the tool wear.
[0004] For the second problem, when laser cladding is performed on a surface with complex curvature, due to the curvature of the surface, laser cladding has unstable molten pool flow and difficult forming. Therefore, the processing process should be monitored in real time to ensure that the laser head is perpendicular to the processing position, and adjust the process parameters such as laser power, scanning speed, and powder feeding speed, so as to control the flow and forming of the molten pool in real time and reduce the influence of curvature on the cladding quality. In addition, the influence of cutting process requirements, tool geometry parameters, laser preparation parameters, micro-texture parameters, and the complex curvature of the workpiece on the tool-chip and tool-work contact state is considered to obtain the precise insertion range of micro-texture under different working conditions to maximize the positive role of micro-texture.
[0005] Regarding the third question, during the integrated forming process of laser cladding and texturing, the tool temperature changes rapidly.
[0006] In the initial stage of laser cladding, the surface of the tool is impacted by the laser, which will cause sudden heating, cracks and pores; after preparation, the temperature of the external environment is too different from the temperature of the tool body, and the tool is suddenly cooled to produce residual stress. Therefore, it is very important to heat treat the tool before and after cladding. Summary of the invention

The entire device can achieve cladding first and then inserting micro-textures, or inserting micro-textures first and then cladding. It can simply and conveniently achieve cladding and micro-texture insertion into various complex free-form surfaces.
[0055] How it works
[0056] The present invention inputs parameters, and the system automatically identifies the insertion area according to the process parameter formula to generate processing parameters; the three-dimensional scanner scans the three-dimensional model of the tool to be processed, and sends the three-dimensional model to the system controller, and the system controller sends the three-dimensional model to the Z-axis programmer, and the Z-axis programmer sends the program to the scanning processing mechanism after the program is compiled, so that the focal lengths of the cladding laser and the optical fiber laser are adjusted in real time according to the Z-axis program, and the thickness of the cladding layer is consistent during the cladding process, and the depth of the micro-texture is consistent during the micro-texture insertion process; after the Z-axis programmer draws the program, the three-dimensional model is projected into a two-dimensional model and sent to the X-axis and Y-axis programmers, and the X-axis and Y-axis programmers perform programming, and send the compiled program to the workbench mechanism, so that the tool positioning clamp runs along the X direction according to the program, and the tool fixture sliding guide runs along the Y direction according to the program.
[0057] Before processing, the system controller controls the preheating workbench to preheat the tool; the system controller controls the pressure in the powder storage box, the powder storage box powder discharge time and the laser processing time; the system controller controls the powder discharge pipe to rotate relative to the powder feeding pipe and adjusts it to a suitable gear, and controls the gear position of the powder discharge pipe and the pressure in the powder storage box to control the powder discharge flow rate; when the gear position of the powder discharge pipe does not meet the actual processing requirements, the powder discharge port will slightly expand or shrink to fine-tune the flow rate; when the tool is sprayed with powder, the tool-chip and tool-work contact states will change due to changes in process parameters. At this time, the powder spray head moves with the system The system controls the injection port to inject inert gas to prevent oxidation of the cladding material due to high temperature during the cladding process. During the cladding process, the temperature sensor in the preheating table monitors the tool temperature in real time, transmits the temperature signal back to the system controller, and then controls the laser head to adjust the laser power. After the processing is completed, the 3D scanner scans the tool surface again to generate a 3D model for comparison with the ideal model. If the processing is not good, the system controller automatically generates a program for secondary processing based on the processed 3D model. After the processing is completed, the system controller controls the preheating table to slowly cool the tool. The entire composite structure can be used for single melting and single micro-texture insertion, or it can be clad first and then micro-texture insertion, or micro-texture insertion first and then cladding, so as to achieve simple and convenient processing of various complex free-form surfaces.
