The invention discloses an
electric arc additive manufacturing method for assisting in
titanium alloy grain refinement through coaxial
ultrasound. The method comprises the following steps that firstly, an ultrasonic gun is installed on a
welding gun in the mode that the ultrasonic gun and a
tungsten electrode are coaxial; 2, fully cleaning the surface of the
titanium alloy substrate, clamping and fixing the
titanium alloy substrate in a to-be-welded area, and adjusting the
tip position of a
tungsten electrode to the initial position of material increase; thirdly,
welding shielding gas is introduced in advance, and after the
electric arc is stable, layer-by-layer stacked additive manufacturing is carried out on the
titanium alloy substrate through a coaxial ultrasonic auxiliary method; and fourthly, the
titanium alloy component obtained after additive manufacturing is completed is cooled and then taken down from the clamp, and the additive manufacturing process is completed. According to the method, the ultrasonic
waves are introduced into the
electric arc and the
molten pool, the electric arc form can be effectively controlled, the fluidity of the
molten pool can be effectively improved, then grain size refinement and
distribution uniformity of the
titanium alloy additive manufacturing component are achieved, the titanium alloy additive manufacturing component is strengthened, the
mechanical property of the titanium alloy additive manufacturing component is improved, and the method has very important significance on titanium alloy electric arc additive manufacturing.
