Description
技术领域technical field
本发明属于激光制造领域,涉及一种同轴送丝激光制造方法及装置。The invention belongs to the field of laser manufacturing, and relates to a coaxial wire feeding laser manufacturing method and device.
背景技术Background technique
激光增材制造技术在制造模式上区别于传统的减材加工技术,其可以根据零件的三维模型直接制备出实体零件,省去了传统制造工艺中的模具设计、铸造、锻造等一系列工序,极大的缩短了零件的制备周期。同时,激光增材制造技术拓展了设计人员的想象空间,使得零件形状不再受传统制造工艺的约束。此外,通过优化激光增材制造工艺参数,能够使得成形出的金属零部件致密度及力学性能达到锻件水平,从而满足实际工程需求。Laser additive manufacturing technology is different from traditional subtractive processing technology in terms of manufacturing mode. It can directly prepare solid parts according to the three-dimensional model of the part, eliminating the need for a series of processes such as mold design, casting, and forging in the traditional manufacturing process. The production cycle of parts is greatly shortened. At the same time, laser additive manufacturing technology expands the imagination of designers, making the shape of parts no longer restricted by traditional manufacturing processes. In addition, by optimizing the parameters of the laser additive manufacturing process, the density and mechanical properties of the formed metal parts can reach the level of forgings, thus meeting the actual engineering needs.
根据成形原材料形式的不同,激光增材制造可分为粉末式激光增材制造和丝材式激光增材制造,其中丝材式激光增材制造技术具有以下优点:1)丝材相较于粉末具有更高的材料利用率。粉末的利用率一般为50%以下甚至更低,同时使用过的粉末再次回收利用可能对零件性能产生不利影响。而丝材的利用率可高达100%,极大的节省了原材料。2)丝材式激光增材制造更加安全。由于激光增材制造存在高温过程,对于一些金属材料特别是轻质合金,在粉末增材过程中存在爆燃隐患,同时由于粉末的粒径一般在几十微米左右,所以容易对周围环境造成污染。而丝材式激光增材制造极大的降低了这种危险性同时避免了环境污染。3)丝材的制备工艺更简单,成本更低。粉末的制备工艺复杂,制粉成本高,部分粉末的球形度不高且存在空心粉末,从而使得粉末的流动性差影响粉末输送的稳定性,同时空心粉末容易在零件内引入气孔等缺陷,降低零件性能。而丝材制备更加简单,成本更低,且丝材在输送过程中均匀性及稳定性更高,有利于零件性能的保障。According to the different forms of forming raw materials, laser additive manufacturing can be divided into powder laser additive manufacturing and wire laser additive manufacturing. Among them, wire laser additive manufacturing technology has the following advantages: 1) Compared with powder It has higher material utilization rate. The utilization rate of the powder is generally below 50% or even lower, and the recycling of the used powder at the same time may have an adverse effect on the performance of the part. The utilization rate of the wire can be as high as 100%, which greatly saves raw materials. 2) Wire laser additive manufacturing is safer. Due to the high temperature process of laser additive manufacturing, for some metal materials, especially light alloys, there is a risk of deflagration during the powder additive process. At the same time, because the particle size of the powder is generally around tens of microns, it is easy to cause pollution to the surrounding environment. The wire-type laser additive manufacturing greatly reduces this risk and avoids environmental pollution. 3) The preparation process of the silk material is simpler and the cost is lower. The preparation process of powder is complicated, the cost of powder making is high, and the sphericity of some powders is not high and there are hollow powders, which makes the powder fluidity poor and affects the stability of powder delivery. At the same time, hollow powders are easy to introduce defects such as pores in the parts, reducing parts performance. The wire preparation is simpler, the cost is lower, and the uniformity and stability of the wire during the transportation process are higher, which is conducive to the guarantee of the performance of the parts.
送丝式激光增材制造根据丝材输送方式可分为斜轴式和同轴式。其中斜轴式送丝方式中的金属丝从激光束外送入,虽然装备设计难度低,实现较为容易,但仅单一方向成形容易,难以成形多方向或复杂结构零件,成形具有各向异性。同轴送丝方式是将金属丝从光束内部送入,激光束与金属丝同轴,熔丝效果更好,能量利用率高且能够实现复杂结构零件的制备,相比于斜轴式的送丝方式具有明显优势,但装备的设计制造难度大成本更高。Wire-feed laser additive manufacturing can be divided into oblique axis type and coaxial type according to the wire feeding method. Among them, the metal wire in the inclined axis wire feeding method is fed from the outside of the laser beam. Although the equipment design is less difficult and the realization is relatively easy, it is easy to form in a single direction, and it is difficult to form multi-directional or complex structural parts, and the forming has anisotropy. The coaxial wire feeding method is to feed the metal wire from the inside of the beam, the laser beam is coaxial with the metal wire, the fuse effect is better, the energy utilization rate is high, and the preparation of complex structural parts can be realized. The wire method has obvious advantages, but the design and manufacture of equipment is more difficult and more costly.
针对同轴送丝式的光路设计及装备研制一些学者开展了深入研究。专利CN208147143 U设计了一种用于激光金属打印的同轴送丝熔敷头,通过两个锥形镜以及一个分裂镜实现光束的分束,最终通过聚焦镜对光束进行汇聚。该设计方案使得激光头内在两个锥形镜之间存在一个激光焦点,该焦点位置会加热两透镜之间的空气折射光路中的光线,造成光路的偏差,甚至在高功率激光作用下会产生空气的电离,因此该方案仅适用于低激光功率。Some scholars have carried out in-depth research on the optical path design and equipment development of the coaxial wire feeding type. Patent CN208147143 U designed a coaxial wire feeding welding head for laser metal printing, splitting the beam through two conical mirrors and a splitting mirror, and finally converging the beam through the focusing mirror. This design scheme makes a laser focal point exist between the two conical mirrors in the laser head, and the focal position will heat the air between the two lenses to refract the light in the optical path, causing the deviation of the optical path, even under the action of high-power laser. ionization of air, so this scheme is only suitable for low laser powers.
专利CN105499793 A设计了一种用于分光的光路,光路内采用了两个四分光透镜,该透镜形状复杂,制作要求及成本高昂,且四束光的分光与汇聚使镜片与光路的调试变得更加困难。Patent CN105499793 A designed an optical path for light splitting. Two four-beam splitting lenses are used in the light path. The shape of the lens is complex, the production requirements and cost are high, and the splitting and convergence of four beams of light make the adjustment of the lens and the optical path easier. more difficult.
专利CN104259461 A中所设计的激光分光光路通过圆锥镜、内圆锥镜以及环形凹面镜对光路进行分光与汇聚,但内圆锥镜反射出的准直环形光光束与环形凹面镜反射的聚焦光束在传播过程中发生了干涉,将影响光束的汇聚效果,不利于样件的成形,同时环形凹面镜的尺寸过大,难以加工且成本高昂。现有的同轴送丝激光制造装置的光路设计方式复杂,镜片及装备加工难度大,难以实际应用,因此,需设计更加高效简单的光路分光及相关机械结构。The laser splitting light path designed in the patent CN104259461 A splits and converges the light path through the conical mirror, the inner conical mirror and the annular concave mirror, but the collimated ring light beam reflected by the inner conical mirror and the focused beam reflected by the annular concave mirror are in the process of propagation. Interference occurs during the process, which will affect the converging effect of the beam and is not conducive to the forming of the sample. At the same time, the size of the annular concave mirror is too large, which is difficult to process and high in cost. The optical path design method of the existing coaxial wire-feed laser manufacturing device is complicated, and the processing of the lens and equipment is difficult, which is difficult for practical application. Therefore, it is necessary to design a more efficient and simple optical path splitter and related mechanical structures.
