Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of additive manufacturing, and in particular to an array stamping and metal film stamping device for additive manufacturing and an in-situ toughening stamping method. Background Art

[0002] Additive manufacturing technology uses a gradual accumulation of materials to create physical parts. Through sophisticated computer-aided design, various materials can be stacked layer by layer to create physical products with specific shapes and functions. Compared to traditional subtractive manufacturing methods, such as cutting, additive manufacturing offers many advantages. It can shorten production time, improve processing efficiency and raw material utilization, and achieve complex structures to enhance product performance. Additive manufacturing technology is practical and has formed a technological system with relatively mature basic technologies and continuously innovative new technologies. It has gradually become a popular technology in aerospace, automotive, consumer electronics, medical and other fields.

[0003] Currently, the comprehensive mechanical properties of structural components processed using additive manufacturing technology still need to be improved. This is because additive manufacturing is a natural solidification process, and the resulting structural components have not undergone stable heat treatment or mechanical deformation processing such as rolling. As a result, additively manufactured structural components cannot achieve a balance between strength and toughness. This is especially true for softer metals (such as aluminum, copper, and low-carbon steel). Although their additively manufactured structural components have excellent toughness, they often have low strength. Therefore, effective methods are needed to achieve a simultaneous improvement in the strength and toughness of soft material additively manufactured structural components. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Further, the clamping assembly comprises a clamping head arranged at the end of the multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical arm, which is used to coordinate the action of laying the metal film on the surface of the printing layer, and the clamping head is controlled by a motor to tighten or loosen the metal film.

[0014] On the other hand, an in-situ array metal film stamping method for additive manufacturing is provided. The stamping method obtains a solidified single-layer printing layer by printing on the workbench, and punches a dense honeycomb array reinforcement area on the single-layer printing layer; a selective stamping is performed once for each printed layer, so that each printed layer forms a dense honeycomb array reinforcement area; after printing dozens of layers continuously, the metal film is spread on the surface of the top printed layer, and the surface of the printed layer covering the metal film is stamped; then the above-mentioned stamping method is repeated until the printing is completed.

[0018] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solution of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Example 1

[0021] This in-situ array metal film stamping device for additive manufacturing can form and stamp printed layers on a workbench, and form dense honeycomb array reinforcement areas through selective stamping.

Moreover, the entire device is easy to operate and use, and has the characteristics of high precision, easy to control the stamping degree, full automation, strong practicality and high stamping efficiency.

[0022] The flexibility and adaptability of the in-situ array metal film stamping device for additive manufacturing are also good. The workbench 1 can move in the horizontal direction to adjust its position. The galvanometer pulse laser emitter 3 is arranged on the lifting bracket to adjust its height position. A pair of multi-degree-of-freedom robotic arms 5 can move in a large range to facilitate loading, and can also perform micro-operations accurately above the workbench, and can all move according to system instructions; the additive manufacturing nozzle 6 prints the workpiece according to the instructions of the control system, and the setting of the multi-degree-of-freedom robotic arm can realize multi-directional additive manufacturing. The clamping assembly 7 clamps the in-situ metal film to be stamped and places it on the workpiece print layer printed by the additive manufacturing nozzle. The galvanometer pulse laser emitter 3 determines a suitable working position while moving, and performs in-situ pulsed laser stamping on the print layer or the metal film covering the print layer.

[0023] Further, combined Figure 2 As shown, a first mounting seat 14 is provided below the workbench 1 , and the first mounting seat 14 is installed on the moving module. A pair of the clamping and fixing components 2 are symmetrically arranged above the workbench 1 .

[0024] The moving module can drive the workbench to move, and the pair of clamping and fixing components can better clamp and fix the metal film laid on the printing layer from both sides.

[0025] Furthermore, the clamping and fixing assembly 2 includes a movable base 201 arranged on the workbench 1, and a liftable clamping arm 202 is provided on the movable base 201, and the clamping arm 202 clamps and fixes the metal film on the printed layer.

[0026] The movable base 201 can be a small electric slide, which can be raised and lowered by an electric push rod or a pneumatic telescopic rod to drive the clamping arm to rise and fall, so that the clamping arm 202 can be extended and retracted up and down and can move forward and backward to clamp and fix the spread metal film on the surface of the printing layer.

[0027] Furthermore, the lifting bracket includes a first base plate 8, a second mounting seat 15 is provided below the first base plate 8, and the second mounting seat 15 is installed on the mobile module; a pair of vertical guide rods 9 are provided on the first base plate 8, and lifting sliders 10 are respectively provided on the vertical guide rods 9, and a crossbeam 11 is connected between the pair of lifting sliders 10, and the crossbeam 11 is connected to install the galvanometer-type pulse laser emitter 3.

[0028] The lifting slider 10 can drive the crossbeam 11 to move up and down along a pair of vertical guide rods 9, thereby adjusting the height of the galvanometer-type pulse laser emitter 3 for laser stamping. The lifting slider 10 can be electrically driven so as to be connected to a controller for control.

[0029] Further, the galvanometer pulse laser emitter 3 comprises an emitter body, one side of the emitter body is provided with a sliding clamping groove connected to the lifting support, and the lower side of the emitter body is provided with a galvanometer lens 4.

[0030] In some embodiments, the cross beam 11 is a transverse guide rail, on which an electric sliding block is arranged, and the emitter body is mounted on the electric sliding block, so that the emitter body can be controlled to move along the cross beam, thereby enabling laser stamping at different positions. In operation, the laser emitting device is located directly above the to-be-stamped printing layer and faces the to-be-stamped area.

[0031] The galvanometer lens 4 can control the single-direction laser beam to be emitted in the required direction through variable-angle setting, and perform laser stamping on the printing layer and different positions on the surface of the printing layer. In operation, the galvanometer lens first receives a control signal from the control circuit, and then the galvanometer motor is deflected to change the direction of the internal laser beam. The internal sensors of the galvanometer lens of the present application are all photoelectric sensors, which can greatly improve the precision and accuracy of the galvanometer.

[0032] Further, the multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical arm 5 can be a multi-axis mechanical arm (such as a six-axis mechanical arm), or can be composed of multiple sections of electric or hydraulic telescopic arms connected by power joints. The specific joint type is not limited, and it is only required to be capable of realizing folding and selection and the like. For example, the multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical arm comprises a connecting arm, the connecting arm is provided with a rotary joint, the rotary joint is connected with a multi-degree-of-freedom joint, and the distal end of the multi-degree-of-freedom joint is connected with the clamping assembly or the additive manufacturing nozzle.

[0033] Further, the mechanical arm is provided below with a rotating base 13, the rotating base 13 is arranged on the second bottom plate 12, the second bottom plate 12 is provided below with a third mounting seat 16, and the third mounting seat 16 is mounted on the moving module. The rotating base 13 can drive the multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical arm 5 to rotate, and the moving module can slide in the front-back direction as a whole.

[0034] The structures of the mounting seats below the first bottom plate 8 and the second bottom plate 12 are basically similar, and can be used to connect and mount the moving modules. These moving modules can be multiple moving modules arranged at multiple positions, or can be arranged on the same large moving module.

[0035] Furthermore, the clamping assembly 7 includes a clamping head mounted at the end of the multi-DOF robotic arm 5, which coordinates the spreading of the metal film across the printed surface. The clamping head is controlled by a motor to tighten or loosen the metal film. The clamping head can be a clamp-type clamping actuator, mounted on the last section of the multi-DOF robotic arm via a motor-driven mechanism. The motor-driven mechanism can be of any type, such as a DC motor or an electromagnetic motor. The motor-driven mechanism significantly enhances the flexibility of the clamp-type clamping mechanism.

[0036] The additive manufacturing nozzle 6 can be mounted on the end effector of the multi-degree-of-freedom robotic arm 5 via a motor rotation device. Under the control of the motor rotation device, it can rotate 360 ​​degrees and move as a whole. Through the above rotation and translation, the optimal additive manufacturing working position is determined. The specific control method can be based on common knowledge. For example, a robot coordinate system can be established and the working position can be converted into coordinates in the robot coordinate system for calculation. The additive manufacturing nozzle delivers additive manufacturing powder and raw materials through a powder feeding pipe to print the workpiece.

[0037] It should be noted that the present invention is also provided with a control system, which can be installed on the back of the integral structural support and can also be remotely controlled. The control system can be an integrated dedicated control system. Of course, the additive manufacturing controller and the mechanical controller can also be set separately, and the specific form is not limited. Example 2

[0038] This embodiment provides a stamping method using the in-situ array metal film stamping device for additive manufacturing in Example 1. The stamping method obtains a solidified single-layer print layer by printing on the workbench, and punches a dense honeycomb array-type reinforcement area on the single-layer print layer; a selective stamping is performed once for each printed layer, so that each printed layer forms a dense honeycomb array-type reinforcement area; after printing dozens of layers continuously, the metal film is spread on the surface of the top printed layer, and the surface of the printed layer covering the metal film is stamped; then the above-mentioned stamping method is repeated until printing is completed.

[0039] The stamping method of the present invention introduces stamping technology into the additive manufacturing process, and forms a dense honeycomb array-type reinforcement area through layer-by-layer selective stamping. Due to the impact of the pulsed laser, this area introduces compressive stress, achieves grain refinement, and significantly improves strength. At the same time, the matrix area outside the array-type reinforcement area is not affected by the pulsed laser and still maintains excellent toughness. This is equivalent to "inserting" a dense reinforcement array parallel to the printing height direction into the matrix with excellent toughness, so that the entire structural component has excellent strength and toughness in the longitudinal direction (printing height direction). In addition, due to the sudden changes in microstructure and stress at the interface between the reinforcement area and the matrix, the strength and toughness are relatively weak, so it is easy to cause interface cracking when subjected to a transverse (perpendicular to the printing height direction) tensile external force. To address this issue, after continuous printing and selective stamping of dozens of layers, the clamping assembly is used to cover the surface of the printed layer with a metal film. The metal film adheres tightly to the surface of the printed layer to ensure that the metal film will not be affected by the thermal stress generated by laser stamping and move. The laser emitter emits a pulsed laser to achieve stamping, compacting the film on the surface of the printed layer. The printing and selective stamping process is then repeated. After printing and selective stamping of dozens of layers, the metal film is stamped again. This process is repeated until printing is completed to obtain a structural component with a metal film interlayer. Because the metal film interlayer has excellent strength and toughness, and the lateral tensile external force is parallel to the film surface, the metal film interlayer effectively compensates for the strength and toughness at the interface between the reinforcement area and the substrate during the lateral stretching process, giving the structural component excellent strength and toughness in both the lateral and longitudinal directions.

[0040] During the 3D printing additive manufacturing process, each time a layer of powder is printed, a laser is used to impact it to create a honeycomb-like reinforcement area. This process is then continued, and after dozens of layers, a layer of metal film is added to it, which is then stamped onto the printed layer. This process is then repeated again, with the printing impact and then the film impact, until the end. In this way, a composite structural part can be obtained that has both the honeycomb-like reinforcement area with the selective impact and the metal film interlayer. In other words, by applying external forces in the horizontal and vertical directions of additive manufacturing, excellent strength and toughness can be achieved; the layer-by-layer stacking allows the honeycomb-like reinforcement areas of the selective reinforcement area to also play a role, and the metal film also plays a role.

[0041] Specific, combined Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the stamping method includes the following steps: Step 1: Printing a solidified single-layer print layer on the workbench 1 through the additive manufacturing nozzle, controlling the galvanometer-type pulse laser emitter 3 to emit pulsed laser to perform selective punching on the solidified single-layer print layer to form a dense honeycomb array-type reinforcement area 18; Step 101: During the process of selectively stamping the solidified single-layer printed layer, the galvanometer-type pulse laser emitter changes its angle to control the laser emission direction, thereby achieving selective pulse laser stamping; Step 2: Each time a printing layer is printed, a selective stamping is performed on the printing layer so that each printing layer forms a dense honeycomb array reinforcement area 18; Step 201: A dense honeycomb array reinforcement area 18 is formed by selectively stamping layer by layer, wherein the density, shape, and position of the array are consistent with the previous printing layer; Step 202: Stamping is performed layer by layer until dozens of layers are printed continuously, then stamping is stopped and the multi-degree-of-freedom robot arm 5 is controlled to clamp the metal film 17 and spread the metal film 17 on the surface of the printed layer; Step 3: After the metal film 17 is spread on the surface of the multi-layer printed and stamped printing layer, the clamping and fixing assembly is controlled to attach the metal film 17 to the printing layer; Step 4: After the metal film 17 is fixed by the clamping and fixing assembly, the galvanometer-type pulse laser emitter 3 is controlled again to emit pulse laser; Step 5: Punching the surface of the printed layer covering the metal film 17, controlling the pulse laser emission direction, and achieving full coverage pulse laser film punching; Step 6: After achieving a full coverage pulse laser film stamping, continue to repeat the above steps 1-5, that is, print the printing layer layer by layer again and perform layer-by-layer selective stamping. After printing dozens of layers, stamp the metal film, and repeat this cycle until the printing is completed.
