Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of blade film hole processing, and in particular to a method and device for processing a blade film hole with a thermal barrier coating. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous development of advanced aircraft engines, the temperature of the gas before the turbine has gradually increased, which has put forward higher requirements on the temperature bearing capacity of the turbine blades. In order to meet the requirements of hot end components such as turbine blades in extreme service environments such as high temperature, high pressure and high speed, the field of aircraft engines has been using thermal barrier coating technology and air film hole cooling technology to reduce the service temperature of hot end components, thereby extending their service life.
[0003] Thermal barrier coatings are generally double-layer structures, i.e., a ceramic layer on the surface and an adhesive layer on the inner layer, and their main functions are heat insulation and anti-oxidation. Traditional film hole processing methods such as electric spark drilling cannot process thermal barrier coatings with poor conductivity. The solution of first making holes and then coating is required, which inevitably produces problems such as shrinkage and hole blockage, and the design compliance is poor. In order to directly drill holes on thermal barrier coatings, the prior art proposes the use of laser processing. For example, patent document CN201410213528.7 discloses a film cooling hole preparation process based on picosecond laser assisted processing, and patent document CN201711450432.2 discloses a femtosecond laser processing method and device for film holes on blades with thermal barrier coatings. However, these processing technologies have the problems of low processing efficiency and poor quality of film holes. Summary of the invention
[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to develop a film hole processing technology for blades with thermal barrier coatings to improve processing efficiency and quality.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for machining film holes of a blade with a thermal barrier coating, comprising the following steps: S1. Fix the blade with thermal barrier coating, use femtosecond laser to remove the thermal barrier coating at the punched part, and expose the surface of the blade body. The incident angle of the femtosecond laser is α, 30°≥α≥15°; S2. Use millisecond laser to perform direct punching at the punching position to form a blind hole on the blade body. The incident angle of the millisecond laser is β, 20°≥β-α≥5°; S3, drilling through the bottom hole by mechanical drilling to form a through hole; S4. Use an electro-hydraulic beam to trim the hole wall of the air film hole to obtain the air film hole.
[0006] The present invention adopts dual laser processing, mechanical drilling, and combined with electro-hydraulic beam hole repair technology. First, a femtosecond laser is used to remove the thermal barrier coating at the punching site. By utilizing its ultra-short pulse and high-precision characteristics, the coating can be accurately removed with little damage to the blade body. Combined with millisecond laser direct punching, blind holes are quickly formed, and then through holes are formed by mechanical drilling, and the hole walls are basically flat. Finally, an electro-hydraulic beam is used to fine-tune the hole walls, forming a complete set of processing procedures, which effectively improves the efficiency and quality of air film hole processing, ensures that the processed air film holes meet the requirements in terms of dimensional accuracy, surface quality, etc., and can efficiently obtain high-quality air film holes.
[0007] Furthermore, the present invention makes differentiated designs for the incident angles of femtosecond laser and millisecond laser. The obliquely incident femtosecond laser increases the contact area between the laser and the coating, improves the photon energy absorption rate, accelerates the stripping of the thermal barrier coating, and is limited to 30°≥α≥15°, thereby ensuring that the laser energy is concentrated on the surface of the coating to avoid deep penetration and damage to the blade body. The millisecond laser and the femtosecond laser have a certain angle difference to prevent accidental ablation of the exposed edge area of the blade body during millisecond laser processing, reduce the burrs at the air film orifice and the thickness of the heat-affected zone, and the angle difference guides the millisecond laser melt to be discharged along the outside of the hole wall, inhibits the formation of a recast layer, and reduces the workload of subsequent hole wall finishing.
[0008] In a preferred or optional solution, in step S1, the thickness of the thermal barrier coating is less than or equal to 0.5 mm, the pulse width of the femtosecond laser is less than 1 ps, the single pulse energy is 20-1000 μJ, the scanning speed is 0.1-3 m / s, and the processing time is less than or equal to 10 s. The femtosecond laser parameters are limited according to the thickness of the thermal barrier coating, so that the process of removing the thermal barrier coating by femtosecond laser is more accurate, efficient and controllable, and the thermal barrier coating is quickly removed, while ensuring the removal effect and avoiding excessive heat effects.
[0009] In the preferred or optional solution, in step S1, the scanning speed of the femtosecond laser is adjusted according to the curvature of the blade surface, V=0.1+0.05×(1 / R), where V is the scanning speed of the femtosecond laser, in m / s, and R is the local curvature radius of the blade, in mm. The scanning speed of the femtosecond laser is dynamically adjusted according to the curvature of the blade surface, so that the laser removal of the thermal barrier coating can better fit the complex curved surface shape of the blade, ensuring that processing can be performed at a suitable speed at different curvature positions, thereby improving the quality and accuracy of the coating removal, avoiding unclean coating removal or damage to the blade body due to inappropriate speed, and further improving the adaptability and reliability of the processing.
[0010] In a preferred or optional solution, in step S2, the pulse width of the millisecond laser used is greater than or equal to 1ms, the single pulse energy is greater than or equal to 1J, and the processing time is less than or equal to 1s. The present invention uses millisecond laser direct punching, and the larger pulse width and single pulse energy can provide sufficient energy density, making the punching process more efficient, controlling the processing time within 1s, and quickly completing the forming of the air film hole. The obtained air film hole depth-to-diameter ratio and diameter meet specific requirements, ensuring the performance and cooling effect of the air film hole.
[0011] In a preferred or optional solution, in step S2, the blind hole has a depth-to-diameter ratio greater than or equal to 20, and a diameter greater than or equal to 0.3 mm. A larger depth-to-diameter ratio and diameter are conducive to the circulation of the cooling medium, improve the cooling efficiency, meet the cooling requirements of the blade in actual work, and ensure the reliability and service life of the blade in a high temperature environment.
[0012] In a preferred or optional solution, in step S4, the electro-hydraulic beam machining voltage is 12-300 V, and the machining time is less than or equal to 10 s. Appropriate machining voltage can ensure the electro-hydraulic beam finishing effect on the hole wall and improve the surface quality of the air film hole.
[0013] In a preferred or optional solution, in step S3, 20-50 nm Al2O3 abrasive is added to the electrolyte for electro-hydraulic beam machining. Adding Al2O3 abrasive to the electrolyte enhances the polishing effect, further improves the surface quality of the hole wall, reduces the roughness of the hole wall, and improves the cooling effect and overall performance of the blade.
[0014] In a preferred or optional solution, the mass of the blade body material removed in step S2 is a, and the total mass of the blade body material removed in steps S3 and S4 is b, satisfying a / b> 9. Using millisecond laser to quickly remove more than 90% of the material is conducive to shortening the time required for the electro-hydraulic beam processing step and improving the overall processing efficiency.
[0015] A second aspect of the present invention provides a device for implementing the above-mentioned method for machining air film holes of a blade with a thermal barrier coating, comprising: A five-axis system includes three linear axis drive modules and two rotary axis drive modules, wherein the three linear axis drive modules are respectively an X-axis drive module, a Y-axis drive module and a Z-axis drive module, and the two rotary axis drive modules are respectively an A-axis drive module and a C-axis drive module; A stage, used to fix the blade to be processed, the A-axis driving module and the C-axis driving module are drivingly connected to the stage; A processing assembly, wherein the processing assembly includes a femtosecond laser processing head, a millisecond laser processing head, a drill bit and a rotatable electro-hydraulic beam processing head, and the X-axis drive module, the Y-axis drive module and the Z-axis drive module are used to drive the processing assembly to move linearly; Dynamic focusing system for real-time scanning of blade surface curvature; A control system, wherein the control system is electrically connected to the five-axis system, the dynamic focusing system and the processing component, the dynamic focusing system is used to input surface curvature data into the control system, and the control system is used to control the movement of the five-axis system, adjust the angles of the stage and the processing component, and control the process parameters of the processing component.

They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
[0032] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0033] A specific embodiment of the present invention provides a method for machining air film holes in a blade with a thermal barrier coating, comprising the following steps: S1. Fix the blade with thermal barrier coating 81, and use femtosecond laser with an incident angle of α to remove the thermal barrier coating 81 at the punched part to expose the surface of the blade body 82. The structure of the blade after this step is as follows: Figure 1 shown.
[0034] In a specific embodiment, the incident angle α of the femtosecond laser is between 15° and 30°. The obliquely incident femtosecond laser can ensure that the laser energy is concentrated on the thermal barrier coating 81, so that the thermal barrier coating 81 is quickly peeled off while avoiding damage to the blade body 82.
[0035] In a specific embodiment, the thickness of the thermal barrier coating 81 is less than or equal to 0.5 mm, the pulse width of the femtosecond laser is less than 1 ps, the single pulse energy is 20~1000 μJ, the scanning speed is 0.1~3 m / s, and the processing time is less than or equal to 10 s. The parameters of the femtosecond laser are limited according to the thickness of the thermal barrier coating 81, so that the process of removing the thermal barrier coating 81 by the femtosecond laser is more accurate, efficient and controllable. Furthermore, the scanning speed of the femtosecond laser is adjusted according to the curvature of the blade surface, so that the process of laser removal of the thermal barrier coating 81 can better fit the complex curved surface shape of the blade, ensuring that processing can be performed at a suitable speed at different curvature positions, thereby improving the quality and accuracy of removing the thermal barrier coating 81. The specific calculation formula is V=0.1+0.05×(1 / R), where V is the scanning speed of the femtosecond laser, in m / s, and R is the local curvature radius of the blade, in mm.
[0036] S2, use millisecond laser to punch holes at the punching position, the incident angle of the millisecond laser is β, and a blind hole is formed on the blade body 82. After this step, the blade structure is as follows Figure 2 shown.
[0037] In a specific embodiment, the pulse width of the millisecond laser used is greater than or equal to 1ms, the single pulse energy is greater than or equal to 1J, the processing time is less than or equal to 1s, and the obtained blind hole depth-to-diameter ratio is greater than or equal to 20, and the diameter is greater than or equal to 0.3mm. Using millisecond laser direct punching, the larger pulse width and single pulse energy can provide sufficient energy density, making the punching process more efficient, quickly completing the formation of the blind hole, and the obtained blind hole depth-to-diameter ratio and diameter meet the cooling requirements of the blade in actual work.
[0038] Furthermore, the millisecond laser incident angle β and the femtosecond laser incident angle α are designed differently to meet 20°≥β-α≥5°. Accordingly, the millisecond laser processing area should be slightly smaller than the thermal barrier coating 81 peeling area to avoid interference. The differentiated design of the millisecond laser incident angle can prevent the exposed edge area of the blade body 82 from being accidentally ablated during millisecond laser processing, reduce the hole burr and the thickness of the heat-affected zone, and the angle difference guides the millisecond laser melt to be discharged along the outside of the hole wall, inhibiting the formation of the recast layer and reducing the workload of subsequent hole finishing.
[0039] S3, drilling the bottom hole by mechanical drilling to form a through hole. In this step, the through hole is formed by mechanical drilling, and the hole wall is basically flat, thereby improving the surface quality of the hole wall.
[0040] S4, use the electro-hydraulic beam to trim the hole wall. The blade structure after this step is as follows Figure 3 As shown, the air film hole 83 is obtained by machining. In a specific embodiment, the voltage of the electro-hydraulic beam machining is 12-300V, and the machining time is less than or equal to 10s.
[0041] In a specific embodiment, the mass of the blade body material removed in step S2 is a, and the total mass of the blade body material removed in steps S3 and S4 is b, satisfying a / b>9, that is, using millisecond laser to quickly remove more than 90% of the material, which is beneficial to shorten the time required for the electro-hydraulic beam processing step and improve the overall processing efficiency.
[0042] Furthermore, adding 20~50nm Al2O3 abrasive to the electrolyte used for electro-hydraulic beam machining can enhance the polishing effect, improve the surface quality of the hole wall, reduce the roughness of the hole wall, and improve the cooling effect and overall performance of the blade.
[0043] The above method uses dual laser processing combined with an electro-hydraulic beam hole making process. First, a femtosecond laser is used to remove the non-conductive thermal barrier coating 81, and then a millisecond laser is used to quickly form a blind hole. Then, a through hole is formed by mechanical drilling, and the hole wall is made basically flat. Finally, a rotatable electro-hydraulic beam is used to refine the hole wall, so as to efficiently obtain high-quality air film holes 83.

The control system 7 is used to control the operation of the device, which is electrically connected to the five-axis system, the dynamic focusing system 6 and the processing assembly.
[0046] During the processing, the dynamic focusing system 6 inputs the curvature data of the blade surface into the control system 7, and the control system 7 controls the movement of the five-axis system, uses the interpolation algorithm to discretize the tool path into small line segments, calculates the movement of each axis segment by segment, and adjusts the angle of the stage 3 and the processing component.
