Microstructure and properties of titanium alloy made by plasma arc and AC auxiliary arc additive manufacturing

  • 摘要: 以等离子弧为热源,采用交流辅助的方法进行钛合金逐层熔丝增材制造,研究外加交流电流对增材件的微观组织和性能的影响,通过高速摄像观察外加交流电流对熔滴尺寸及熔滴过渡的影响,测量堆垛形貌的粗糙度,观测堆垛层的组织和显微硬度,分析辅助交流电流对堆垛层的压缩性能影响. 结果表明,外加交流电流会形成比较明显的交流电弧,并促使等离子弧摆动,对熔池起到振荡作用. 改善增材件的表面平整度以及增材件的晶粒尺寸,且晶粒尺寸随外加辅助交流的增大而变小,从未加交流到外加交流电流为30 A,晶粒尺寸减少了43.4%. 同时,外加交流电流可以明显提高增材件的硬度以及塑性,当外加交流电流为30 A时,硬度为454.15 HV,压缩应变为0.280%,未加交流电流时硬度为406.45 HV,压缩应变为0.110%,压缩应变比未加交流电流时提高了2.5倍.

     

    Abstract: Using plasma arc as heat source, the additive manufacturing of titanium alloy fuses layer by layer was carried out by AC assisted method. The influence of AC value on the microstructure and properties of the additive specimen was studied. The influence of the auxiliary AC value on the droplet size and droplet transition was observed by high-speed photography, the roughness of the stack morphology was measured, the structure and microhardness of the stack were observed, and the influence of the auxiliary AC value on the compression performance of the stack was analyzed. The results show that a more obvious AC arc will be formed and the plasma arc will swing, which will oscillate the molten pool. The surface roughness and grain size of the additive specimen are improved, and the grain size decreases with the increase of the applied auxiliary AC. When no AC is added to the AC value of 30 A, the grain size is reduced by 43.4%. At the same time, the addition of auxiliary AC can significantly improve the hardness and plasticity of the additive specimen. When the external auxiliary AC is 30 A, the hardness is 454.15 HV, and the compression strain is 0.280%. Without AC, the hardness is 406.45 HV and the compressive strain is 0.110%, which is increased by 2.5 times.
