Background Art
[0002] Arc-fused wire additive manufacturing technology is a digital manufacturing technology for manufacturing large metal parts with integrated functional structures. It is a new additive manufacturing technology that uses arc as a heat source to directly deposit metal wires through wire feeding. This technology has the characteristics of high deposition efficiency and low cost, and can realize the rapid manufacturing of large and complex structural parts such as high-performance high-temperature alloys, titanium alloys, aluminum alloys and high-strength steel. Components formed by arc additive manufacturing technology have the advantages of good mechanical properties, low production cost and high forming efficiency, and have received widespread attention.
[0003] The use of traditional forging processes in manufacturing aerospace module products has problems such as low material utilization and high production costs, while the use of traditional casting processes has problems such as many product defects and low first-time pass rate. The use of arc additive manufacturing can improve material utilization and first-time pass rate of products, and does not require molds.
[0004] However, when faced with large-scale batch production of cabin products, the arc additive manufacturing process has a long production cycle compared to the traditional forging / casting process. Since the additive manufacturing of single-piece cabin products requires the separate forming of the main barrel structure, internal and external rib structures, flange structure, etc., the forming of a single printing device has the problems of serial equipment process, repeated positioning to implement the printing of each local structure, and long printing time; and the local position needs to be machined separately during the printing process, and heat treatment, non-destructive testing, dimensional inspection and defect repair are required after printing. The above multiple processes result in a large number of additive manufacturing processes for single-piece cabin products, which cannot meet the needs of batch production. There is an urgent need for a high-efficiency full-process production line solution based on arc additive forming to meet the needs of rapid and high-quality production of cabin structure products in batch production.

The single-axis rotating platform is used to carry the substrate and the products formed on the substrate; the additive robots are evenly distributed around the single-axis rotating platform, and each group of additive robots clamps the welding gun of the welding machine to synchronously perform high-efficiency additive forming of the blank.

A single additive robot clamps the welding gun of the welding machine, and the dual-axis servo positioner performs multi-axis coordinated motion to complete the high-precision additive forming of the internal and external characteristic structures of the blank product. In order to further improve the surface forming accuracy, the welding wire is selected with a diameter of 0.8 to 1.0 mm, the welding gun only supports the feeding of a single wire for deposition forming, the wire feeding speed of the unified welding machine is 4 to 9 m / min, and the single-sided contour forming accuracy of the additive deposition is better than 2 mm. For example, the welding wire is selected with a diameter of 0.8 mm, the welding gun only supports the feeding of a single wire for deposition forming, the wire feeding speed range of the unified welding machine is 5 m / min, and the single-sided contour forming accuracy of the additive deposition is better than 1 mm.
[0040] In the present invention, the roughing subtractive processing unit is composed of a large-tonnage subtractive robot, an electric spindle and a rotary platform. According to the position where the excess on the blank surface needs to be removed, the subtractive robot clamps the electric spindle so that its fixed milling cutter performs high-efficiency milling processing on the corresponding area of the additive blank on the rotary platform, and the speed of the electric spindle during processing is 6000-10000rpm / min. The roughing subtractive processing unit can be used for grinding specific areas of the inner and outer walls before, after, or before and after the high-precision additive deposition unit is formed.

[0042] In the present invention, the heat treatment unit includes a solution furnace and an aging furnace, which are used for the solution and aging heat treatment of the blank product after the additive forming is completed.
[0043] In the present invention, the nondestructive testing unit is composed of an X-ray machine, a nondestructive testing robot, a testing rotary platform, etc. The nondestructive testing robot clamps the X-ray testing head to perform internal quality inspection on the rough-processed or fine-processed products on the testing rotary platform, identifies areas with excessive pores and unfused defects, and feeds back the collected data to the general control system unit.

[0045] In the present invention, the master control system unit is composed of a PLC panel, a data signal collector, etc., and the following functions are realized through the master control unit:
[0046] (1) Production process control: By controlling the turnover of the AGV, the additive products can be circulated in the manufacturing units of “additive manufacturing – subtractive manufacturing – heat treatment – testing”.
[0047] (2) Pulse beat T control: according to the structural characteristics of batch-produced products, the time tn required to manufacture the product in each manufacturing unit is counted, and the longest time T required for the single longest manufacturing unit is selected, that is, the shortest production beat T for batch production of the product. While ensuring the batch production of the product, the master control system unit can adjust the remaining idle manufacturing units to produce other types of products, further improving equipment utilization.
[0048] (3) Production quality control: through the feedback data of X-ray and 3D scanning detection, we can judge whether the products meet the design requirements, and classify the products according to their quality, so as to apply them to different levels of working conditions. The higher the level of working conditions, the higher the requirements for product quality. It is not allowed to use products after defect repair under high-level working conditions.
[0049] (4) Repair of defective products: Based on the defects and areas with excessive contours detected by X-ray and 3D scanning, the products are transferred to the finishing subtractive processing unit to eliminate the defects and areas with excessive contours, and then transferred to the high-precision additive deposition unit for secondary additive processing of the missing areas. After secondary heat treatment, the products are transferred to the finishing subtractive processing unit for finishing. Finally, they are qualified products after passing the secondary inspection by the non-destructive testing unit, X-ray, and the dimensional inspection unit. This method can greatly improve the product qualification rate.
