Concrete application scheme:
Fig. 1 illustrates high frequency magnetic field produced by induction coil used in this specific embodiment (that is, coil 1) (i.e., Magnetic field 1) substantially form.Conductive material is inducted vortex in high-frequency alternating magnetic field.Vortex is internally formed in conductive material Loop simultaneously causes resistance heating in material internal.The frequency in magnetic field is higher, its skin effect that becomes produced when being heated to conductive material Should be more notable, i.e.,:The frequency in magnetic field is higher, and the heated region of conductive material more tends to the surface of conductive material;Even, When heating power is sufficiently high, the surface of conductive material has been melted, but its inside center temperature still connects within a short period of time Near-ambient temperature.
Fig. 2 illustrates the general principle of this specific embodiment:(that is, wire is solid using line-shaped conductive material for solid feed State raw material 1 3), for example using line footpath be 0.1mm titanium metal wire;Induction coil (that is, coil 1) and solid feed (that is, line 3) shape solid feed 1 moves (such as movement shown in arrow D2 under the driving of the position control subsystem of 3 D-printing equipment Direction), solid feed (that is, wire solid feed 1) does vertical under the driving of raw material conveying device (not shown in figures) The movement (such as the moving direction shown in arrow D1) of Nogata upwards;Solid feed (that is, wire solid feed 1) is through sense When answering the center of coil (that is, coil 1), magnetic field 1 is inducted vortex on solid feed, and eddy-current heating makes passing through for solid feed The section in magnetic field is melted and produces fused raw material (that is, the raw material 5 of fusing);Due to the shifting shown in solid feed along arrow D1 Dynamic direction movement, it melts that section is promoted by unfused section and away from induction coil, follow-up solid feed is through magnetic It is melted during field and new fused raw material is given birth to without stopping pregnancy, visually forms " fused raw material stream ";Fused raw material (that is, fusing Raw material 5) connected with unfused solid feed (that is, wire solid feed 1);Fused raw material is in unfused solid feed Under drive, the moving direction accumulation shown in arrow D2, and often accumulated after one layer, induction coil (that is, coil 1) Up move one layer of distance (height or thickness of layer are set by user);The fused raw material accumulated becomes after temperature reduction For solid-state and it is transformed into type-script (that is, type-script 1), the fused raw material newly produced continues that layer of printing being previously formed Accumulated on body to form new layer, until 3 D-printing terminates;Needing to melt the region of connection, induction coil (that is, coil One high frequency magnetic field 2) produced by type-script (that is, type-script 1) upper surface will accumulation fused raw material position and The position fusing of accumulation fused raw material, the position of accumulation fused raw material is also applied between fused raw material and type-script Electric current heating (optional, the parameter set by the user of 3 D-printing equipment is determined), forms the fusion zone 1 of type-script, melts Melt raw material to accumulate on the fusion zone 1 of type-script, so as to realize melting connection;After being removed or be closed in magnetic field, beat The fused raw material for printing the fusion zone 1 of body and its accumulating above is solidified because of heat by walking guide.
During accumulation fused raw material (that is, the raw material 5 of fusing) on the basis of type-script (that is, type-script 1), melt Melt raw material only to come in contact with unfused solid feed (that is, wire solid feed 1), type-script, not with other any knots Structure is contacted.The heat that fused raw material is carried will not be damaged to other structures, therefore this specific embodiment can use superelevation The conductive material of fusing point, such as tungsten (about 3400 DEG C of fusing point).It is existing to be beaten using " miniature smelting furnace " fusing compared to the present invention is played The three-dimensional printing technology of raw material is printed, the printing raw material that can be used is limited to the performance (such as temperature tolerance) of " miniature smelting furnace ", nothing Method prints high-temperature material, such as molybdenum, tungsten.
In this specific embodiment, induction coil constitutes (coil 1 as shown in Figures 3 and 4) by 3 sections, I.e.:Coil 1 is separated into and is sequentially connected by coil electrode 1, coil electrode 29, coil electrode 3 10 and coil electrode 4 11 3 sections;The innermost circle of coil electrode 1 and the control coil 1 of coil electrode 29, coil electrode 1 and coil electrode 3 10 are controlled The entirety of 1.5 circle in system, coil electrode 1 and the control coil 1 of coil electrode 4 11.Coil 1 is manufactured by metal tube.Coil One 2 can generate heat, it is necessary in the logical coolant of its internal path, be cooled down to coil 1 in the operating condition.By changing coil One 2 work section adjusts induced field (that is, magnetic field 1) to the active area of type-script 1.
In this specific embodiment, by changing work of the induced field (that is, magnetic field 1) to type-script (that is, type-script 1) Induced field is adjusted with the rate travel of area and control induction coil (that is, coil 1) to the same of printing body surface face The heating duration in region, i.e.,:When magnetic field rate travel is constant, active area is bigger, same region by magnetic field cover when Between it is longer;Magnetic field rate travel is slower, and the time that same region is covered by magnetic field is longer.It is constant in magnetic field intensity and frequency Under the premise of, the surface of type-script is longer by the time of magnetic field heating, and the temperature in heated region is higher.By regulating and controlling sensing magnetic Realize to the heating duration of type-script and regulation and control magnetic field intensity to the temperature on the type-script surface of specific print area and melt Change state is controlled.Relevant parameter can use empirical value:Obtained by test of many times and form empirical value.
In this specific embodiment, when the interlayer of some print areas needs to be attached with melting, in this dozen Print the surface melting of type-script in the forming process in region, to obtain high structural strength.When the layer of some print areas Between when needing low intensive connection (or even loose connection), not by the surface of type-script in the forming process of the print area Fusing, and the surface of the type-script and temperature difference of fused raw material is bigger, adhesion between the two is lower;Can be strong by low connection The type-script or print area of degree tear complementary support/support open after 3 D-printing terminates as complementary support/support Remove, can so realize the printing of labyrinth.
Because solid feed (that is, wire solid feed 1) is located at the small volume of the section in induced field, type-script The volume of (that is, type-script 1) is larger, causes both heat difference required when being melted larger, therefore, it can in fusing Non-fusible type-script while solid feed.Relevant parameter can use empirical value:Obtained by test of many times and form empirical value.
In this specific embodiment, solid feed and type-script are all by Access Control circuit.When fused raw material and printing When body comes in contact, control circuit monitoring to both come in contact, just move afterwards fused raw material, with carry out next position or The shaping of voxel.In this specific embodiment, when the interlayer of some print areas needs to be attached with melting, at this In the forming process of print area, apply the electric current of certain strength between fused raw material and type-script, to strengthen printing body surface The fusing in face, so as to obtain than the simple control more flexible using magnetic field heating mode.The boiling point of most metal materials is remote Higher than fusing point (such as about 1660 DEG C of the fusing point of titanium, about 3290 DEG C of boiling point).In each voxel (three-dimensional image vegetarian refreshments) In forming process, (such as 1 microsecond) high current (such as diameter of 50 amperes/fused raw material can be applied within the extremely short time 0.1mm) heated with auxiliary magnetic field, by the region instant melting being in contact with fused raw material of type-script.Relevant parameter can be used Empirical value:Obtained by test of many times and form empirical value.
In this specific embodiment, after fused raw material is accumulated on type-script, because fused raw material is from induction coil Center shift to type-script and accumulate, cause the voxel (i.e. pixel) and its close region that are newly molded in certain duration Inside still in the coverage of induced field;Therefore, it can control induction coil rate travel with control newly to be molded voxel and The cooldown rate (i.e. annealing rate) of its close region.Because fused raw material shifts to type-script simultaneously from the center of induction coil Accumulation, cause type-script upper surface will the region of accumulation fused raw material preheated in advance.
This specific embodiment can the common electric conductivity solid-state material of 3 D-printing part, such as tungsten (3400 DEG C of fusing point), Stainless steel, titanium alloy, aluminium alloy, copper.Material is chosen in the absence of the metal three-dimensional printing technology (such as SLM/EBM/LENS) of existing main flow The problem of material (that is, raw material has reflection or the low problem of absorptivity to heat energy, causes workable material category to be limited).
Second preferred embodiment of a kind of 3 D-printing method of the invention as shown in Figures 5 to 9, with this hair The main distinction of first bright specific embodiment is:Induced field is constant to the area of the zone of action of type-script, but can To adjust distribution mode of the induced field to the zone of action of type-script by rotary inductive coil (that is, coil 2 12);It is logical Overregulate induced field to the distribution mode of the zone of action of type-script and be distributed in fused raw material cumulative path to adjust type-script On will accumulation fused raw material region heated duration (in the case where induction coil rate travel is constant), so as to adjust Save the molten state in the region of accumulation fused raw material.Coil 2 12 is also to be manufactured using metal tube, and internal path is used to lead to cold But liquid.
