A kind of powder supply mechanism and method that more material laser selective melting powder subregions are preset
Technical field
The present invention relates in more material laser selective melting equipment powdering component more particularly to a kind of choosing of more material lasers
Melt the preset powder supply mechanism and method of powder subregion in area.
Background technique
Selective laser smelting technology is the pith in metal 3D printing field, and development course undergoes low melting point nonmetallic
Powder sintered, low melting point cladding high-melting-point is powder sintered, high-melting-point powder directly melt the stages such as shape.By Texas ,Usa
University's Austin was applied for a patent earliest in 1986, the 1st SLM device had been succeeded in developing within 1988, using fine focus
Hot spot rapid melting can almost directly obtain arbitrary shape and have metallurgy completely at 30~51 μm of fore-put powder material
In conjunction with function part, consistency can reach intimate 100%, dimensional accuracy up to 20~50 μm, surface roughness up to 20~30 μm,
It is a kind of rapid prototyping technology of great development prospect.
The basic principle is that first designing part using 3D sculpting softwares such as Pro/e, UG, CATIA on computers
Then three-dimensional entity model carries out slicing delamination to the threedimensional model by Slice Software, obtains the outline data in each section, by
Outline data generates filling scan path, and equipment will fill scan line according to these, and control the gold of each layer of laser beam selective melting
Belong to dusty material, is gradually stacked into 3-dimensional metal part.
Selective laser smelting technology is generally all served only for the molding of single metal/non-metal material at present, and is used for a variety of materials
The implementation method of material is few.For realization selective laser smelting technology forming composite part, therefore design a kind of more materials
The preset powder supply mechanism of powder subregion of selective laser melting unit.
