Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of additive manufacturing, and in particular relates to an electron beam multi-wire collaborative in-situ additive manufacturing device for refractory medium / high entropy alloys and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Traditional high-temperature alloys are based on iron, nickel, cobalt, molybdenum, niobium, tungsten, etc., and are a type of metal material obtained by alloying that can work for a long time at high temperatures above 600°C and under certain stresses. They have excellent high-temperature strength, thermal corrosion resistance and fatigue properties, and are mainly used in aerospace, nuclear industry and energy fields. With the development of high-temperature alloys, more and more metals or alloys are classified as high-temperature materials, such as TiAl intermetallic compounds, metal-based high-temperature composites, refractory medium / high entropy alloys, etc. As long as they can meet the service requirements of high-temperature resistant components, they can be called high-temperature materials in a broad sense.
[0003] At present, the preparation of high-temperature alloys and refractory medium / high entropy alloys mainly includes melt casting metallurgy, powder metallurgy and laser additive manufacturing. Since the elements that make up the high-temperature alloys have very high melting points, such as the melting points of Zr and Nb are as high as 1852℃ and 2468℃ respectively, this brings great difficulties to the smelting and processing of high-temperature alloys. Large equipment such as large vacuum melting furnaces and ultra-high temperature heating furnaces are required, making the smelting process complicated and costly. In addition, when using powder metallurgy to prepare high-temperature alloys and high-temperature composite materials, various expensive high-purity metal powders and pre-alloyed powders are required, and a series of complex processes such as ball milling, hot pressing and sintering, and billet forging and rolling are required to obtain high-temperature alloy products. In the process of laser additive manufacturing of high-temperature alloys, due to the high melting points of each element, high requirements are placed on the laser power, and problems such as uneven powder melting, unfused layers and warping deformation are prone to occur. In addition, the low cladding rate makes it difficult to achieve precision forming of large and complex high-temperature alloys and refractory medium / high entropy alloy components.
[0004] Electron beam fuse deposition rapid manufacturing technology uses a high-energy electron beam as a heat source and metal wire as a raw material, and deposits it layer by layer in a vacuum chamber according to the planned path of CAD, thereby achieving near-net forming of complex-shaped components. It has many advantages such as high energy density, high energy utilization, vacuum processing environment and high deposition efficiency. It is particularly suitable for the preparation of highly active, high-melting-point metals and alloys. Compared with melt casting, powder metallurgy and laser additive manufacturing, it significantly simplifies the processing technology, shortens the preparation process and improves the forming efficiency.
[0005] The existing Chinese invention patent with publication number CN114273768A proposes an electron beam multi-wire collaborative additive manufacturing device and method, which belongs to the field of additive manufacturing technology. It can realize the functions of multi-wire co-feeding and multi-wire cooperative feeding, and uses high-melting point pure metal wire or high-temperature alloy wire as raw materials to solve the problems of preparation and forming of high-temperature alloys and high-temperature composite materials. It includes a vacuum chamber, an electron gun, a wire feeding mechanism, a substrate and a working platform. The electron gun is fixedly connected to the top of the vacuum chamber, and the wire feeding mechanism is provided with multiple wire feeding mechanisms. Multiple wire feeding mechanisms are placed on the top of the vacuum chamber and are evenly arranged with the axis of the electron gun as the center of the circle. The workbench is arranged in the vacuum chamber, the substrate is arranged on the workbench, and the work platform is located below the electron gun. In addition, the technical solution involved in the present invention can be extended and applied to the rapid preparation of other metals and alloys, and is particularly suitable for the preparation and forming of metal-based gradient composite materials, but the device cannot record the dynamic relationship between the molten droplets and the molten pool of multiple wire feeding mechanisms in real time, and timely adjust the wire feeding angle and position, thereby realizing the in-situ metallurgy and stable deposition of refractory alloys in the printing process.

[0015] Step 1: Pickle different types of pure metal wires and master alloy wires, then soak and clean them with acetone, place them in a drying oven, and dry them at a constant temperature of 60° for 3 hours. At the same time, use an angle grinder to grind the surface of the substrate until the surface is smooth and clean. Use acetone and alcohol to wipe the surface of the substrate in turn, soak and clean them with acetone, place them in a drying oven, and dry them at a constant temperature of 60° for 3 hours.
[0016] Step 2: Install the processed pure metal wires or master alloy wires of different types in the wire feeding wheel, and clamp the polished substrate on the working platform;
[0017] Step 3: When the vacuum degree of the vacuum chamber reaches the equipment requirement of 7.2×10-2Pa, preheat the substrate;

[0029] 4. The use of multi-wire collaborative in-situ additive manufacturing technology has successfully solved the problem that high-temperature materials such as refractory multi-principal component alloys are difficult to stretch into wires due to their insufficient plasticity.
