Description

[0002] Laser additive devices use laser cladding technology to process the surface of the device. Laser cladding is a new type of remanufacturing technology that uses the heat emitted by a laser to simultaneously melt powder and the surface of the substrate, and then solidifies to obtain a coating on the substrate surface with high bonding strength and low dilution rate. Laser cladding has the advantages of simple operation, easy implementation of large-area repair, good combination effect, etc., and can obtain a dense and high-performance alloy cladding layer, and has been widely used in steel, aviation and shipbuilding industries to improve the surface performance of the substrate, such as corrosion resistance, wear resistance, oxidation resistance and high temperature resistance.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The following will be described in detail in combination with the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 - the accompanying drawings Figure 4 The present disclosure will be further described in detail.

[0033] Reference will be made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 The dual laser additive equipment based on dual-frequency electromagnetic induction synchronous heat treatment comprises a laser emitting device 1, a merging device 2, a magnetic field device 3, and a workbench 4. The magnetic field device 3 comprises an electromagnet 31, a wire 32, and a battery pack 33. The magnetic field device 3 is arranged on the workbench 4. The electromagnet 31 is a ring-shaped magnet. A control device 311 is arranged outside the electromagnet 31. The control device 311 can control the size and transformation of the dual-frequency magnetic field generated by the electromagnet 31. The wire 32 is connected to the control device 311 and the output port of the battery pack 33 at both ends. The merging device 2 is arranged above the center of the electromagnet 31. The merging device 2 comprises a shell 21 and a condenser 22. The condenser 22 arranged therein can focus the laser beam to a specific working area. The magnetic field device 3 arranged in combination can generate a magnetic field after being powered on. In combination with the dual-frequency electromagnetic induction synchronous heat treatment function, the magnetic field can have multiple effects on the material being subjected to additive manufacturing.

[0034] It should be noted that the magnetic field is associated with the cladding area, for example, when the magnetic field is turned on, the magnetic field covers the cladding area. Since the cladding process is carried out in this magnetic field environment, and the magnetic field is changing, it has an impact on the crystallization process of the cladding material. At the microscopic level, the changing magnetic field will interfere with the arrangement of atoms in the cladding material and the direction of crystal growth, reducing the number of coarse columnar dendrites, thereby reducing the generation of cracks and pores in the cladding layer. The close association between the magnetic field and the cladding area is achieved by the position design of the electromagnet 31 and the coverage range of the magnetic field.

[0035] Referring to Figure 1 , the shell 21 is a hollow structure, and an annular groove 211 is formed on the inner wall of the shell 21.

[0036] Further, the embodiment further provides the laser emitting device 1 on the merging device 2, and the laser emitting hole 12 corresponds to the condenser 22, which can ensure that the laser beam is accurately projected onto the condenser 22. The condenser 22 can focus the laser beam, thereby significantly improving the energy density of the laser, and further enabling the device to adapt to various materials and processing techniques, such as surface modification, welding and other processing techniques in addition to additive manufacturing. At the same time, two laser beams can be focused on the working area at the same time, and the two laser beams can be controlled more finely by setting different parameters (such as power, pulse frequency, etc.).

[0037] Further, in the embodiment, by providing two laser emitting holes 12, two laser beams can be emitted at the same time, increasing the energy input, which is beneficial to more energy input in additive manufacturing, thereby improving the cladding rate of the material. At the same time, the two laser beams can also work cooperatively to achieve more precise control of the shape and temperature distribution of the molten pool.

[0041] Further, in other preferred embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the transverse moving mechanism 7 is provided with a longitudinal moving mechanism 8, which comprises a sliding plate 81, an adjusting column 82 and a moving plate 83. The sliding plate 81 is fixed on the top surface of the sliding block 73, the adjusting column 82 is fixed on the sliding plate 81, the adjusting column 82 is provided with an inner clamping groove 821, the inner clamping groove 821 penetrates through one side of the adjusting column 82, the moving plate 83 is clamped in the inner clamping groove 821, the other end of the moving plate 83 is provided with a fixing ring 9, the inner clamping groove 821 and the moving plate 83 are tightly clamped, so that the moving plate 83 will not slide under non-manual operation, and the fixing ring 9 is sleeved on the shell 21 of the merging device 2. The outer side of the fixing ring 9 is provided with a connecting rod 91, the connecting rod 91 is rotationally connected with the moving plate 83, and there is only a small rotation angle between the connecting rod 91 and the moving plate 83, which is used for fine adjustment of the horizontal arrangement of the condenser 22.

[0042] The longitudinal moving mechanism 8 is integrally carried on the transverse moving mechanism 7, so that the entire longitudinal moving system can move in the horizontal direction with the sliding block 73 of the transverse moving mechanism 7. Such design realizes flexible movement in a two-dimensional plane and expands the processing range of the equipment. That is, the combination of the transverse moving mechanism 7 and the longitudinal moving mechanism 8 of the present embodiment provides the equipment with accurate movement capability in a two-dimensional plane. The components of the longitudinal moving mechanism 8 cooperate with each other to realize height adjustment of the merging device 2 and horizontal adjustment of the condenser 22, so as to accurately control the focusing position and angle of the laser according to different processing requirements, thereby improving the processing precision and flexibility of the equipment.
