The wall thickness of some parts of the casting blank is gradually processed from dozens of millimeters to 3-5 millimeters, the processing working hour is greatly consumed, and when the pressing verification is finally carried out, once leakage defects occur, the casting cannot be repaired, the production cost loss is large, so that a precise repairing method which can be used for reducing the loss is urgently needed to be developed.
The cast aluminum alloy is used as a light and high-strength structural material and is widely applied to the fields of aviation, aerospace and the like. Generally, the repair of aluminum alloy castings is generally carried out by argon arc welding, but a welding pool and a heat affected zone achieved by argon arc welding are large, the defects of blank pieces can be generally repaired by the method, but for parts which are thin in wall thickness and high in dimensional accuracy after finish machining, the parts cannot be welded on the thin wall thickness by adopting argon arc welding, and even if the parts are welded by a reluctant mode, the thermal deformation caused by the parts can cause the size of the parts to be out of tolerance and the parts are directly scrapped. Meanwhile, the argon arc welding has a large welding pool, and is very easy to generate bubble and slag inclusion defects, thereby bringing hidden danger to the base body of the part and easily generating leakage defects. For this reason, laser repair methods have been developed to solve the above problems.

The working principle of the invention is as follows: the invention provides a laser repairing method for leakage defects of aluminum alloy castings. The aluminum alloy welding repair has large input energy, large heat affected zone after welding, obvious structural deformation and prominent reduction of mechanical property, and if the aluminum alloy parts are subjected to rough machining or finish machining, the structural deformation and the reduction of mechanical property generated by conventional welding repair lead to part scrapping, thereby causing serious loss of manufacturing period and cost. Aiming at the structural deformation and the reduction of mechanical properties of the aluminum alloy weld repair, the aluminum alloy part is repaired by utilizing laser with more concentrated energy, surface oil stains and thicker oxidation films on the surface of the aluminum alloy part to be repaired, which are caused by machining and other processes, are cleaned before the weld repair, impurities such as the oil stains and the like are prevented from corroding a matrix and oxidizing impurities from entering the matrix to cause defects, the heat influence on the matrix of the aluminum alloy part is reduced by adopting short-time micro-area high power during welding, the heat input on the matrix of the aluminum alloy part is small, and the structural deformation in the welding process is effectively prevented; meanwhile, the matrix rapidly chills the micro-area melting, so that fine and compact crystal grains in the welding micro-area are brought, and the mechanical property is higher; moreover, inert gas protection is adopted, so that the defects of oxidation and inclusion caused by high temperature, repair of oxidation and inclusion caused by molten pool oxidation and the like are avoided. In addition, the aluminum alloy welding wire is close to the base material of the part, so that the aluminum alloy welding wire has good wettability, and under the influence of melting capillary action of the micro-area, small holes and defects are infiltrated and repaired, and effective filling and repairing of leakage defects are realized. Finally, test verification is carried out through a pressing test, and the repairing effect is ensured.
