Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and an apparatus for thermal spraying of coating materials.
- the DE 102 52 437 A1 describes an ultrasonic standing wave atomizer assembly for generating a paint spray for painting a workpiece.
- the ultrasonic standing wave atomizer assembly is designed to increase the sprayed paint quantity, ie the paint rate, during a painting process, while maintaining a selected range of droplet sizes.
- a stationary ultrasonic field with selected maxima is generated, wherein pipe sections for applying paint are provided in the region of the stationary ultrasonic field.
- Characteristic here is that a liquid present paint in the ultrasonic field in droplet form transferred, that is atomized.
- a disadvantage of this arrangement is the need for a complex control technique that controls and regulates the formation of the ultrasonic wave maxima.
- the frequencies or the frequency range for the formation of the maxima are limited at a given distance of the opposite sound surfaces.
- the DE 37 35 787 A1 describes a method and apparatus for atomizing at least one jet of liquid, preferably molten metal, wherein the liquids are passed through the ultrasonic field within a compressed gaseous medium.
- the detected as disadvantageous low ultrasonic power is encountered with a compressed gaseous medium. With the compressed, that is under pressure medium, a higher energy transfer of the ultrasonic field is possible. The high density of the gas thus promotes the sound transmission, in particular because of better impedance matching.
- the ultrasonic oscillators are arranged perpendicular or transverse to the beam direction. It is also characteristic here that a jet of liquid material is atomized only by means of a downstream ultrasonic field.
- the gaseous, compressed medium merely increases the efficiency of the ultrasound transmission.
- a disadvantage of this arrangement is the need to use a compressed, so under pressure gaseous medium.
- the spray materials usually metals or their alloys, but also ceramics, carbides or plastics / polymers, melted by the supply of thermal energy, melted or melted and accelerated by means of a gas jet.
- thermal spraying involves processes in which spray additives inside or outside spraying equipment are melted, melted or melted onto prepared surfaces and the surfaces are not melted.”
- DIN EN 657 includes i.a. the following methods under the term “thermal spraying” together: arc spraying, plasma spraying, detonation spraying, laser spraying, induction spraying, molten bath spraying and (wire) flame spraying.
- the impinging droplets or particles dig into the surface of the workpiece (mechanical stapling mechanism).
- the impinging mostly still liquid coating material adapts to the contour of the surface to be coated, which on cooling to the formation of shrinkage stresses in the deposited layer can lead.
- Mechanical clamping is an essential adhesive mechanism, but not the only one, with no detailed reference to the different adhesive mechanisms, depending on the material.
- thermal energy can take place, inter alia, in the form of electrical energy (arc spraying and plasma spraying) or chemical energy by burning liquid or gaseous fuels (for example wire flame spraying). In some cases, the energy is coupled in optically, inductively or capacitively.
- the spray material is already present in some processes as a powder or as a suspension and is supplied by means of a suitable conveying device (for example plasma spraying, flame spraying).
- spray wire In many cases, however, is used on spraying materials in the form of wires, cored wires, rods or cords (collectively referred to as "spray wire").
- spray material after melting must first be atomized by a suitable atomizing gas before it is accelerated by the most common gas and spun onto the surface of the workpiece.
- a suitable atomizing gas Depending on the process and requirements for the materials, compressed air, inert gases such as nitrogen, argon or helium, reactive or reducing gases (oxygen or hydrogen), gas mixtures or simply the combustion gases which also supply the thermal energy are used as atomizing gas.
- Gas stream atomization is a stochastic, random process that results in a broad size distribution with particles of less than one micron up to more than 200 microns in diameter, which occur simultaneously (polydisperse).
- the known methods for producing thermal spray coatings on the surface of a workpiece have the disadvantage that very large particles in the gas jet are accelerated only insufficient, whereas small particles can already solidify before impact, which has a negative effect on the layer properties.
- control variable is primarily the speed of the atomizing gas flow.
- the gas flow can be influenced only to a limited extent by the choice of gas type, pressure, gas temperature or nozzle geometry, but the problem of a broad particle size distribution remains.
- the object of the invention is to provide a method and a device for thermal spraying of coating materials, wherein the disadvantages known from the prior art are avoided and the droplet size distribution or the spray particle size distribution of the coating materials can be specifically influenced.
- thermal spraying is preferably understood to mean wire flame spraying and arc spraying, the latter being preferred.
- the mixture of fuel gas and oxygen or compressed air simultaneously serves as a means of melting and as a sputtering gas
- arc spraying only a Zerstäubergas is used, since the melting takes place through the arc.
- Combustion gas is synonymously understood as meaning the mixture of fuel gas or liquid fuel and oxygen or compressed air.
- the ultrasound is coupled directly into the coating material to be melted by exposing at least one ultrasonic generator directly to the coating material to be melted, i. the spray wire, is brought into contact.
- the ultrasound is indirectly coupled into the coating material to be melted by bringing the at least one ultrasound generator into contact with the meltable coating material via a contact-containing wire guide.
- the ultrasound is indirectly coupled into the coating material to be melted by arranging at least one ultrasound generator in the gas flow of the atomizer or the combustion gas or the gas nozzle or burner nozzle itself being designed as an ultrasound generator indirectly injects the ultrasound via the gas stream in the réelleschmelzende coating material.
- the ultrasound is coupled directly into the coating material to be melted by forming the ultrasound by means of modulation or pulse-like variation of the current of the current supply, the current changing direction (polarity change), the current direction change within Tenth of a second to picoseconds occurs and the current is between 0.01 amps and 3000 amps. This is particularly applicable to arc spraying.
- the ultrasound is coupled directly into the coating material to be melted by forming the ultrasound by means of modulation or pulsed variation of the atomizing gas stream or of the combustion gas stream.
- the ultrasound is in the frequency range from 15 kHz to 10 MHz.
- the sprayed from the coating material spray particles are accelerated by means of atomizing gas or combustion gas at speeds of ten meters per second up to 1500 meters per second.
- the atomizing gas or the combustion gas is preheated, preferably to temperatures above room temperature, more preferably to 100-1000 ° C., most preferably to 300-600 ° C. This preheating takes place exclusively during arc spraying.
- the object is further achieved according to the invention by a device having at least one spray wire (1, 1 ') withticianschmelzendem wire end (2, 2') and at least one Drahtzu Foodvoriques (3, 3 '), which wire feed (4, 4') and contact-making wire guide (5, 5 '), wherein at least one ultrasonic generator (6, 6') on at least one spray wire (1, 1 ') is arranged.
- thermal spraying are wire flame spraying and arc spraying.
- a burner nozzle (7) in which the melted end (2) of the at least one spray wire (1) is located.
- This burner nozzle (7) has entrances for fuel gas (8) and oxygen / compressed air (9), the mixture of which supplies the combustion gas.
- fuel gases the common process gases or flammable liquids are used, in particular acetylene, propane, ethene, methane, natural gas, hydrogen, acetylene being preferred.
- the apparatus for carrying out the method comprises a first and second spray wire (1, 1 ') with wire ends (2, 2') to be fused and two wire feeders (3, 3 '), each of which wire feed (4, 4') and contacting wire guide (5, 5 '), as well as electrical connections (10, 10') for the generation of the arc (11) between the fusible wire ends (2, 2 ').
- the at least one ultrasound generator is arranged either on the first or second spray wire (1, 1 ').
- two ultrasonic transmitters (6, 6 ') are provided, one of which is arranged on the first and the other on the second spray wire (1, 1').
- This preferred form with two ultrasonic transmitters applies both to direct and indirect coupling of the ultrasound into the spray wires (explained in more detail below).
- the at least one or the ultrasound transmitters (6, 6 ') are arranged directly on at least one or on the first and / or second spray wire (1, 1') and thus directly couple the ultrasound.
- the at least one or the ultrasound transmitters (6, 6 ') are arranged on the wire guide (5, 5') and thus couple the ultrasound into the at least one or the first and / or second spray wire (FIG. 1, 1 ') indirectly.

- a narrow spray particle size distribution is achieved by means of ultrasound application, which in the ideal case is monodisperse, ie all particles have the same size.
- particle size distributions result in which at least 50 percent of the particles differ in diameter less than twenty percent from an average, preferably 70 percent of the particles in diameter deviate less than 15 percent from the mean, and most preferably more than 90 percent of the particles in diameter less than 10 percent of the mean value, whereby the mean value can be set by the frequency of the ultrasound. Because of the low dynamic viscosity at very high surface tension of liquid metals, the atomization by means of ultrasound for metals works particularly well in comparison to water or melted plastics.
- the mean spray particle size depends on the frequency of the ultrasound. Possible sizes are between 200 microns to less than a micrometer. Favorable particle sizes are from a few microns to a few tens of microns, depending on material and application. Higher frequencies result in smaller particles and vice versa. A controlled adjustment of a defined size of the particles produced is desirable because different applications are to be realized. For example, where closed non-porous spray coatings are desired, smaller particles are produced, i. higher frequencies of ultrasound applied. When porous layers are desired, a lower frequency of ultrasound is used to produce larger particles which then form porous layers when applied to the substrate.
- the oxidation plays an increasingly important role, whereby the oxidation can be reduced or prevented with a shielding gas (relevant in arc spraying). Small spray particles can better follow the gas flow, which is advantageous for a controlled coating process.
- Fig. 1 shows a device for wire flame spraying, in which a spray wire 1 is held with a fusible wire end 2 of a wire feeder 3 or guided.
- This wire feed device 3 consists of a wire feed 4 and a wire guide 5, wherein the ultrasonic generator 6 is arranged directly on the latter.
- the spray wire 1 continues to pass through a burner nozzle 7, which has accesses for fuel gas 8 and accesses for oxygen / compressed air.
- the combustion gas whose temperature is above the melting temperature of the spray wire 1, melts the spray wire 1 at the wire end 2 to be melted.
- the spray stream 22, which contains spray particles 23, is formed by the gas stream 12. These form the sprayed layer 24 when it strikes the substrate 25.
- ultrasonic vibrations are introduced directly into the spray wire. This results in advantages that little control technology is required and a high efficiency compared to methods that are known from the prior art, is achieved.
- Fig. 2 shows an apparatus for arc spraying with injection wires 1, 1 ', which have to be melted wire ends 2, 2'.
- the spray wires are guided by wire feeders 3, 3 'which consist of wire feeders 4, 4' and wire guides 5, 5 ', with the ultrasonic transmitters 6, 6' being arranged directly on the latter.
- Electrical connections 10, 10 'in conjunction with the power supply 14 are used to generate the arc 11.
- the arc 11 to be melted wire ends 2, 2' of the spray wires 1, 1 'melted resulting from the gas flow 12 in the molten zone 21 of the spray jet 22 is generated, which contains the spray particles 23. These are applied to the substrate 25 when impinging as a spray coating 24.
- ultrasonic vibrations are also introduced directly into the spray wire. This results in advantages that little control technology is required and a high efficiency compared to methods that are known from the prior art, is achieved.

Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum thermischen Spritzen von Beschichtungsmaterialien.The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for thermal spraying of coating materials.
Es sind verschiedene Beschichtungsvorrichtungen bekannt, die das Beschichten eines Substrats mittels zerstäubten Materialien beinhalten.Various coating devices are known which involve coating a substrate by means of atomized materials.

Für die Zerstäubung von Flüssigkeiten sind aus der Literatur Verfahren bekannt, bei denen durch die Verwendung von Ultraschall auf Flüssigkeitsoberflächen Kapillarwellen erzeugt werden, die schließlich zur Einschnürung und Tropfenbildung führen (
Aus der Literatur (
Beim Beschichten eines Werkstückes mittels thermischen Spritzens werden die Spritzmaterialien, meist Metalle oder deren Legierungen, aber auch Keramiken, Karbide oder Kunststoffe/Polymere, durch die Zufuhr thermischer Energie aufgeschmolzen, angeschmolzen oder abgeschmolzen und mittels eines Gasstrahls beschleunigt.When coating a workpiece by means of thermal spraying, the spray materials, usually metals or their alloys, but also ceramics, carbides or plastics / polymers, melted by the supply of thermal energy, melted or melted and accelerated by means of a gas jet.
Die Definition des thermischen Spritzens lautet nach DIN EN 657: "Das thermische Spritzen umfasst Verfahren, bei denen Spritzzusätze innerhalb oder außerhalb von Spritzgeräten an-, auf- oder abgeschmolzen und auf vorbereitete Oberflächen aufgeschleudert werden. Die Oberflächen werden dabei nicht aufgeschmolzen." DIN EN 657 fasst u.a. die folgenden Verfahren unter dem Begriff "thermisches Spritzen" zusammen: Lichtbogenspritzen, Plasmaspritzen, Detonationsspritzen, Laserspritzen, Induktionsspritzen, Schmelzbadspritzen und (Draht-)Flammspritzen.The definition of thermal spraying according to DIN EN 657 is as follows: "Thermal spraying involves processes in which spray additives inside or outside spraying equipment are melted, melted or melted onto prepared surfaces and the surfaces are not melted." DIN EN 657 includes i.a. the following methods under the term "thermal spraying" together: arc spraying, plasma spraying, detonation spraying, laser spraying, induction spraying, molten bath spraying and (wire) flame spraying.
Durch das Aufschmelzen verflüssigt sich das Material, welches dann durch den Gasstrom zerstäubt und gleichzeitig auf die zu besprühende Oberfläche geschleudert wird. Bei einigen der oben aufgelisteten Verfahren wie Plasmaspritzen oder Detonationsspritzen (Flammspritzen gibt es sowohl mit Pulvern als auch mit Drähten oder Stäben) wird mit Pulvern gearbeitet, die die Partikelgröße von Anfang an vorgeben. Die durch Aufschmelzen und Zerstäubung gebildeten Partikel sind die sogenannten Spritzpartikel, die durch den Gasstrahl auf die zu besprühende Oberfläche gelangen. Dabei erreichen die Spritzpartikel hohe Geschwindigkeiten, wobei je nach Verfahren Geschwindigkeiten zwischen einigen zehn Metern pro Sekunde bis zu über 1500 Metern pro Sekunde (Vorlesungsskript "thermisches Spritzen", E. Beyer, TU Dresden 2005) erzielt werden, mit denen die Materialien schließlich auf ein Substrat auftreffen. Die auftreffenden Tröpfchen oder Teilchen verkrallen sich mit der Oberfläche des Werkstücks (Haftmechanismus mechanische Verklammerung). Bei diesem Vorgang passt sich der auftreffende, meist noch flüssige Beschichtungswerkstoff an die Kontur der zu beschichtenden Oberfläche an, was beim Abkühlen zur Ausbildung von Schrumpfspannungen in der deponierten Schicht führen kann. Mechanische Verklammerung ist ein wesentlicher Haftmechanismus, aber nicht der einzige, wobei auf ein detailliertes Eingehen auf die je nach Material unterschiedlichen weiteren Haftmechanismen hier verzichtet wird.By melting the material liquefies, which is then atomized by the gas flow and simultaneously thrown on the surface to be sprayed. Some of the methods listed above, such as plasma spraying or detonation spraying (flame spraying is available with both powders and wires or rods) use powders that dictate particle size from the start. The particles formed by melting and atomization are the so-called spray particles, which reach the surface to be sprayed by the gas jet. In this case, the spray particles reach high speeds, depending on the method speeds between a few tens of meters per second up to 1500 meters per second (Lecture script "thermal spraying", E. Beyer, TU Dresden 2005) are achieved with which the materials finally on a Impact substrate. The impinging droplets or particles dig into the surface of the workpiece (mechanical stapling mechanism). In this process, the impinging, mostly still liquid coating material adapts to the contour of the surface to be coated, which on cooling to the formation of shrinkage stresses in the deposited layer can lead. Mechanical clamping is an essential adhesive mechanism, but not the only one, with no detailed reference to the different adhesive mechanisms, depending on the material.
Die Zufuhr thermischer Energie kann dabei unter anderem in Form elektrischer Energie (Lichtbogenspritzen und Plasmaspritzen), oder chemischer Energie durch Verbrennen von flüssigen oder gasförmigen Brennstoffen erfolgen (z.B. Drahtflammspritzen). In einzelnen Fällen wird die Energie auch optisch, induktiv oder kapazitiv eingekoppelt. Das Spritzmaterial liegt bei einigen Verfahren bereits als Pulver oder als Suspension vor und wird mittels einer geeigneten Fördervorrichtung zugeführt (z.B. Plasmaspritzen, Flammspritzen).The supply of thermal energy can take place, inter alia, in the form of electrical energy (arc spraying and plasma spraying) or chemical energy by burning liquid or gaseous fuels (for example wire flame spraying). In some cases, the energy is coupled in optically, inductively or capacitively. The spray material is already present in some processes as a powder or as a suspension and is supplied by means of a suitable conveying device (for example plasma spraying, flame spraying).
In vielen Fällen wird jedoch auf Spritzmaterialien in Form von Drähten, Fülldrähten, Stäben oder Schnüren zurückgegriffen (zusammengefasst unter der Bezeichnung "Spritzdraht"). In diesen Fällen muss das Spritzmaterial nach dem Aufschmelzen zunächst durch ein geeignetes Zerstäubergas zerstäubt werden, bevor es durch das meist gleiche Gas beschleunigt und auf die Oberfläche des Werkstücks aufgeschleudert wird. Als Zerstäubergas werden je nach Verfahren und Anforderungen an die Materialien Pressluft, Inertgase wie Stickstoff, Argon oder Helium, reaktive oder reduzierende Gase (Sauerstoff bzw. Wasserstoff), Gasgemische oder einfach die Verbrennungsgase, die auch für die Zufuhr der thermischen Energie sorgen, verwendet.In many cases, however, is used on spraying materials in the form of wires, cored wires, rods or cords (collectively referred to as "spray wire"). In these cases, the spray material after melting must first be atomized by a suitable atomizing gas before it is accelerated by the most common gas and spun onto the surface of the workpiece. Depending on the process and requirements for the materials, compressed air, inert gases such as nitrogen, argon or helium, reactive or reducing gases (oxygen or hydrogen), gas mixtures or simply the combustion gases which also supply the thermal energy are used as atomizing gas.
Bei der Zerstäubung mittels Gasstrom handelt es sich um einen stochastischen, also zufallsgesteuerten Prozess, aus dem eine breite Größenverteilung mit Partikeln von weniger als einem Mikrometer bis hin zu über 200 Mikrometern Durchmesser resultiert, welche simultan auftreten (polydispers). Die bekannten Verfahren zur Erzeugung von thermischen Spritzschichten auf der Oberfläche eines Werkstücks haben den Nachteil, dass sehr große Partikel im Gasstrahl nur unzureichend beschleunigt werden, während kleine Partikel hingegen bereits vor dem Auftreffen erstarren können, was sich negativ auf die Schichteigenschaften auswirkt.Gas stream atomization is a stochastic, random process that results in a broad size distribution with particles of less than one micron up to more than 200 microns in diameter, which occur simultaneously (polydisperse). The known methods for producing thermal spray coatings on the surface of a workpiece have the disadvantage that very large particles in the gas jet are accelerated only insufficient, whereas small particles can already solidify before impact, which has a negative effect on the layer properties.
Zur Beeinflussung der Partikelgrößenverteilung beim thermischen Spritzen ist die Regelgrö-βe in erster Linie die Geschwindigkeit des zerstäubenden Gasstroms. Auf den Gasstrom kann nur in beschränktem Maße durch die Wahl von Gasart, Druck, Gastemperatur oder Düsengeometrie Einfluss genommen werden, wobei aber das Problem einer breiten Partikelgrößenverteilung bestehen bleibt.For influencing the particle size distribution during thermal spraying, the control variable is primarily the speed of the atomizing gas flow. On the gas flow can be influenced only to a limited extent by the choice of gas type, pressure, gas temperature or nozzle geometry, but the problem of a broad particle size distribution remains.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum thermischen Spritzen von Beschichtungswerkstoffen zu schaffen, wobei die aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Nachteile vermieden werden und die Tröpfchengrößenverteilung bzw. die SpritzpartikelGrößenverteilung der Beschichtungsmaterialien gezielt beeinflusst werden kann.The object of the invention is to provide a method and a device for thermal spraying of coating materials, wherein the disadvantages known from the prior art are avoided and the droplet size distribution or the spray particle size distribution of the coating materials can be specifically influenced.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch ein Verfahren zum thermischen Spritzen von Beschichtungsmaterialien, welche in der Regel in Form von Spritzdrähten vorliegen, wobei das aufzuschmelzende Material aufgeschmolzen, beim Aufschmelzen durch Einkopplung von Ultraschall in Schwingungen versetzt und mittels eines Zerstäubergases bzw. mittels des Verbrennungsgases (Gemisch aus Brenngas und Sauerstoff/Druckluft) zerstäubt wird. Im Sinne dieser Erfindung werden unter thermischem Spritzen vorzugsweise Drahtflammspritzen und Lichtbogenspritzen verstanden, wobei letzteres bevorzugt ist. Beim Drahtflammspritzen dient die Mischung aus Brenngas und Sauerstoff bzw. Druckluft (Verbrennungsgas) gleichzeitig als Mittel zum Aufschmelzen und als Zerstäubergas, beim Lichtbogenspritzen wird lediglich ein Zerstäubergas eingesetzt, da das Aufschmelzen durch den Lichtbogen erfolgt.This object is achieved by a method for thermal spraying of coating materials, which are usually in the form of spray wires, wherein the material to be melted melted during melting by coupling of ultrasound into vibrations and by means of a Zerstäubergases or by means of the combustion gas (mixture from fuel gas and oxygen / compressed air) is atomized. For the purposes of this invention, thermal spraying is preferably understood to mean wire flame spraying and arc spraying, the latter being preferred. In wire flame spraying, the mixture of fuel gas and oxygen or compressed air (combustion gas) simultaneously serves as a means of melting and as a sputtering gas, in arc spraying, only a Zerstäubergas is used, since the melting takes place through the arc.
Unter Verbrennungsgas wird synonym die Mischung aus Brenngas oder flüssigem Brennstoff und Sauerstoff bzw. Druckluft verstanden.Combustion gas is synonymously understood as meaning the mixture of fuel gas or liquid fuel and oxygen or compressed air.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Verfahrens zum thermischen Spritzen von Beschichtungsmaterialien wird der Ultraschall direkt in das aufzuschmelzende Beschichtungsmaterial eingekoppelt, indem mindestens ein Ultraschallgeber direkt mit dem aufzuschmelzenden Beschichtungsmaterial, d.h. dem Spritzdraht, in Kontakt gebracht wird.In a preferred embodiment of the method for thermal spraying of coating materials, the ultrasound is coupled directly into the coating material to be melted by exposing at least one ultrasonic generator directly to the coating material to be melted, i. the spray wire, is brought into contact.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform des Verfahrens zum thermischen Spritzen von Beschichtungsmaterialien wird der Ultraschall indirekt in das aufzuschmelzende Beschichtungsmaterial eingekoppelt, indem der mindestens eine Ultraschallgeber über eine kontaktgebende Drahtführung mit dem aufzuschmelzenden Beschichtungsmaterial in Kontakt gebracht wird.In a further embodiment of the method for thermal spraying of coating materials, the ultrasound is indirectly coupled into the coating material to be melted by bringing the at least one ultrasound generator into contact with the meltable coating material via a contact-containing wire guide.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform des Verfahrens zum thermischen Spritzen von Beschichtungsmaterialien wird der Ultraschall indirekt in das aufzuschmelzende Beschichtungsmaterial eingekoppelt, indem im Gasstrom des Zerstäuber- bzw. des Verbrennungsgases in Strömungsrichtung mindestens ein Ultraschallgeber angeordnet ist oder die Gasdüse oder Brennerdüse selbst als Ultraschallgeber ausgebildet ist, welcher den Ultraschall indirekt über den Gasstrom in das aufzuschmelzende Beschichtungsmaterial einkoppelt.In a further embodiment of the method for thermal spraying of coating materials, the ultrasound is indirectly coupled into the coating material to be melted by arranging at least one ultrasound generator in the gas flow of the atomizer or the combustion gas or the gas nozzle or burner nozzle itself being designed as an ultrasound generator indirectly injects the ultrasound via the gas stream in the aufzuschmelzende coating material.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform des Verfahrens zum thermischen Spritzen von Beschichtungsmaterialien wird der Ultraschall direkt in das aufzuschmelzende Beschichtungsmaterial eingekoppelt, indem der Ultraschall mittels Modulation oder impulsartiger Variation des Stromes der Stromversorgung gebildet wird, wobei der Strom seine Richtung ändert (Polaritätswechsel), die Stromrichtungsänderung innerhalb von Zehntelsekunden bis Picosekunden erfolgt und die Stromstärke zwischen 0,01 Ampere und 3000 Ampere liegt. Dies ist insbesondere beim Lichtbogenspritzen anwendbar.In a further embodiment of the method for thermal spraying of coating materials, the ultrasound is coupled directly into the coating material to be melted by forming the ultrasound by means of modulation or pulse-like variation of the current of the current supply, the current changing direction (polarity change), the current direction change within Tenth of a second to picoseconds occurs and the current is between 0.01 amps and 3000 amps. This is particularly applicable to arc spraying.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform des Verfahrens zum thermischen Spritzen von Beschichtungsmaterialien wird der Ultraschall direkt in das aufzuschmelzende Beschichtungsmaterial eingekoppelt, indem der Ultraschall mittels Modulation oder impulsartiger Variation des Zerstäubergas-Gasstromes oder des Verbrennungsgas-Gasstromes gebildet wird.In a further embodiment of the method for thermal spraying of coating materials, the ultrasound is coupled directly into the coating material to be melted by forming the ultrasound by means of modulation or pulsed variation of the atomizing gas stream or of the combustion gas stream.
Der Ultraschall liegt im Frequenzbereich von 15 kHz bis 10 MHz.The ultrasound is in the frequency range from 15 kHz to 10 MHz.
Die aus dem Beschichtungsmaterial aufgeschmolzenen Spritzpartikel werden mittels Zerstäubergas oder Verbrennungsgas auf Geschwindigkeiten von zehn Metern pro Sekunde bis zu 1500 Metern pro Sekunde beschleunigt.The sprayed from the coating material spray particles are accelerated by means of atomizing gas or combustion gas at speeds of ten meters per second up to 1500 meters per second.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform des Verfahrens zum thermischen Spritzen von Beschichtungsmaterialien erfolgt eine Vorerwärmung des Zerstäubergas oder des Verbrennungsgases, vorzugsweise auf Temperaturen oberhalb der Raumtemperatur, mehr bevorzugt auf 100-1.000 °C, höchst bevorzugt auf 300-600 °C. Diese Vorerwärmung erfolgt ausschließlich beim Lichtbogenspritzen.In a further embodiment of the method for the thermal spraying of coating materials, the atomizing gas or the combustion gas is preheated, preferably to temperatures above room temperature, more preferably to 100-1000 ° C., most preferably to 300-600 ° C. This preheating takes place exclusively during arc spraying.
Beim Drahtflammspritzen ist eine Vorerwärmung unnötig, da die Temperatur des Verbrennungsgases bereits deutlich oberhalb des Schmelzpunktes des Spritzdrahtes liegt (Literaturdaten für das Flammspritzen: Verbrennungstemperaturen typischerweise von 2660°C (Wasserstoff), 2850°C (Propan) und 3160°C (Acetylen)).In wire flame spraying, preheating is unnecessary since the temperature of the combustion gas is already well above the melting point of the spray wire (Flame Spraying Literature Data: Combustion Temperatures Typically 2660 ° C (Hydrogen), 2850 ° C (Propane) and 3160 ° C (Acetylene)) ,
Die Aufgabe wird weiterhin erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch eine Vorrichtung mit mindestens einem Spritzdraht (1, 1') mit aufzuschmelzendem Drahtende (2, 2') und mindestens einer Drahtzuführvorrichtung (3, 3'), welche Drahtvorschub (4, 4') und kontaktgebende Drahtführung (5, 5') umfasst, wobei mindestens ein Ultraschallgeber (6, 6') am mindestens einen Spritzdraht (1, 1') angeordnet ist.The object is further achieved according to the invention by a device having at least one spray wire (1, 1 ') with aufzuschmelzendem wire end (2, 2') and at least one Drahtzuführvorrichtung (3, 3 '), which wire feed (4, 4') and contact-making wire guide (5, 5 '), wherein at least one ultrasonic generator (6, 6') on at least one spray wire (1, 1 ') is arranged.
Wie oben bereits erwähnt sind die zwei als thermisches Spritzen bevorzugten Varianten das Drahtflammspritzen und das Lichtbogenspritzen.As mentioned above, the two preferred variants of thermal spraying are wire flame spraying and arc spraying.
Beim Drahtflammspritzen weist die Vorrichtung zur Durchführung des Verfahrens eine Brennerdüse (7) auf, in der sich das aufzuschmelzende Ende (2) des mindestens einen Spritzdrahtes (1) befindet. Diese Brennerdüse (7) weist Zugänge für Brenngas (8) und Sauerstoff/Druckluft (9) auf, deren Gemisch das Verbrennungsgas liefert. Als Brenngase werden die gängigen Prozessgase oder brennbare Flüssigkeiten eingesetzt, insbesondere Acetylen, Propan, Ethen, Methan, Erdgas, Wasserstoff, wobei Acetylen bevorzugt ist.When wire flame spraying, the apparatus for performing the method, a burner nozzle (7), in which the melted end (2) of the at least one spray wire (1) is located. This burner nozzle (7) has entrances for fuel gas (8) and oxygen / compressed air (9), the mixture of which supplies the combustion gas. As fuel gases, the common process gases or flammable liquids are used, in particular acetylene, propane, ethene, methane, natural gas, hydrogen, acetylene being preferred.
Beim Lichtbogenspritzen weist die Vorrichtung zur Durchführung des Verfahrens einen ersten und zweiten Spritzdraht (1, 1') mit aufzuschmelzenden Drahtenden (2, 2') und zwei Drahtzuführvorrichtungen (3, 3') auf, welche jeweils Drahtvorschub (4, 4') und kontaktgebende Drahtführung (5, 5'), sowie elektrische Anschlüsse (10, 10') für die Erzeugung des Lichtbogens (11) zwischen den aufzuschmelzenden Drahtenden (2, 2') umfassen. Der mindestens eine Ultraschallgeber ist entweder am ersten oder zweiten Spritzdraht (1, 1') angeordnet.In arc spraying, the apparatus for carrying out the method comprises a first and second spray wire (1, 1 ') with wire ends (2, 2') to be fused and two wire feeders (3, 3 '), each of which wire feed (4, 4') and contacting wire guide (5, 5 '), as well as electrical connections (10, 10') for the generation of the arc (11) between the fusible wire ends (2, 2 '). The at least one ultrasound generator is arranged either on the first or second spray wire (1, 1 ').
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind zwei Ultraschallgeber (6, 6') vorhanden, von denen jeweils einer am ersten und der andere am zweiten Spritzdraht (1, 1') angeordnet ist. Diese bevorzugte Form mit zwei Ultraschallgebern gilt sowohl für die direkte als auch für die indirekte Einkopplung des Ultraschalls in die Spritzdrähte (nachfolgend genauer erläutert).In a preferred embodiment, two ultrasonic transmitters (6, 6 ') are provided, one of which is arranged on the first and the other on the second spray wire (1, 1'). This preferred form with two ultrasonic transmitters applies both to direct and indirect coupling of the ultrasound into the spray wires (explained in more detail below).
Die nachfolgenden Ausführungen beziehen sich sowohl auf das Drahtflamm- als auch auf das Lichtbogenspritzen.The following explanations relate both to wire flame spraying and to arc spraying.
In einer Ausführungsform der Vorrichtung sind der mindestens eine bzw. die Ultraschallgeber (6, 6') direkt am mindestens einen bzw. am ersten und/oder zweiten Spritzdraht (1, 1') angeordnet und koppeln somit den Ultraschall direkt ein.In one embodiment of the device, the at least one or the ultrasound transmitters (6, 6 ') are arranged directly on at least one or on the first and / or second spray wire (1, 1') and thus directly couple the ultrasound.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Vorrichtung sind der mindestens eine bzw. die Ultraschallgeber (6, 6') an der Drahtführung (5, 5') angeordnet und koppeln somit den Ultraschall in den mindestens einen bzw. in den ersten und/oder zweiten Spritzdraht (1, 1') indirekt ein.In a further embodiment of the device, the at least one or the ultrasound transmitters (6, 6 ') are arranged on the wire guide (5, 5') and thus couple the ultrasound into the at least one or the first and / or second spray wire (FIG. 1, 1 ') indirectly.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Vorrichtung ist im Gasstrom (12) in Strömungsrichtung mindestens ein Ultraschallgeber (6) angeordnet, wobei der Ultraschallgeber (6) den Ultraschall indirekt über den Gasstrom (12) des Zerstäuber- oder Verbrennungsgases in den mindestens einen bzw. den ersten und/oder zweiten Spritzdraht (1, 1') einkoppelt.In a further embodiment of the device, at least one ultrasound generator (6) is arranged in the gas flow (12) in the flow direction, wherein the ultrasound generator (6) directs the ultrasound indirectly via the gas flow (12) of the atomizing or combustion gas into the at least one or the first and / or second spray wire (1, 1 ') coupled.
Es handelt sich hierbei um ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum thermischen Spritzen von Beschichtungsmaterialien, vorzugsweise mittels Drahtflamm- oder Lichtbogenspritzens, besonders bevorzugt mittels Lichtbogens, wobei der in das Beschichtungsmaterial eingekoppelte Ultraschall eine günstige Spritzpartikelbildung und -ablösung bewirkt. Erfindungsgemäß wird mittels Ultraschall-Anwendung eine enge Spritzpartikelgrößenverteilung erreicht, die im Idealfall monodispers ist, d.h. alle Partikel haben die gleiche Größe. In der Praxis ergeben sich Partikelgrößenverteilungen, bei denen zumindest 50 Prozent der Partikel im Durchmesser weniger als zwanzig Prozent von einem Mittelwert abweichen, bevorzugt 70 Prozent der Partikel im Durchmesser weniger als 15 Prozent vom Mittelwert abweichen und höchst bevorzugt mehr als 90 Prozent der Partikel im Durchmesser weniger als 10 Prozent vom Mittelwert abweichen, wobei der Mittelwert über die Frequenz des Ultraschalls eingestellt werden kann. Wegen der geringen dynamischen Viskosität bei sehr hoher Oberflächenspannung von flüssigen Metallen funktioniert die Zerstäubung mittels Ultraschalls für Metalle besonders gut im Vergleich zu etwa Wasser oder aber aufgeschmolzenen Kunststoffen.This is a method and a device for the thermal spraying of coating materials, preferably by means of wire flame or arc spraying, particularly preferably by means of an arc, wherein the ultrasound coupled into the coating material effects a favorable spray particle formation and separation. According to the invention, a narrow spray particle size distribution is achieved by means of ultrasound application, which in the ideal case is monodisperse, ie all particles have the same size. In practice, particle size distributions result in which at least 50 percent of the particles differ in diameter less than twenty percent from an average, preferably 70 percent of the particles in diameter deviate less than 15 percent from the mean, and most preferably more than 90 percent of the particles in diameter less than 10 percent of the mean value, whereby the mean value can be set by the frequency of the ultrasound. Because of the low dynamic viscosity at very high surface tension of liquid metals, the atomization by means of ultrasound for metals works particularly well in comparison to water or melted plastics.
Die mittlere Spritzpartikelgröße hängt hierbei von der Frequenz des Ultraschalls ab. Möglich sind Größen zwischen 200 Mikrometern bis unter ein Mikrometer. Günstig sind Partikelgrößen von einigen Mikrometern bis wenigen zehn Mikrometern, abhängig von Werkstoff und Anwendung. Höhere Frequenzen ergeben kleinere Partikel und umgekehrt. Eine kontrollierte Einstellung einer definierten Größe der erzeugten Partikel ist wünschenswert, da verschiedene Anwendungen realisiert werden sollen. Beispielsweise werden, wenn geschlossene, nicht-poröse Spritzschichten angestrebt werden, kleinere Partikel erzeugt, d.h. höhere Frequenzen des Ultraschalls angewendet. Wenn poröse Schichten angestrebt werden, wird eine geringere Frequenz des Ultraschalls eingesetzt, um somit größere Partikel zu erzeugen, die dann bei Auftrag auf das Substrat poröse Schichten bilden.The mean spray particle size depends on the frequency of the ultrasound. Possible sizes are between 200 microns to less than a micrometer. Favorable particle sizes are from a few microns to a few tens of microns, depending on material and application. Higher frequencies result in smaller particles and vice versa. A controlled adjustment of a defined size of the particles produced is desirable because different applications are to be realized. For example, where closed non-porous spray coatings are desired, smaller particles are produced, i. higher frequencies of ultrasound applied. When porous layers are desired, a lower frequency of ultrasound is used to produce larger particles which then form porous layers when applied to the substrate.
Mit abnehmender Spritzpartikelgröße spielt die Oxidation zunehmend eine Rolle, wobei die Oxidation mit einem Schutzgas verringert oder verhindert werden kann (relevant beim Lichtbogenspritzen). Kleine Spritzpartikel können der Gasströmung besser folgen, was für einen kontrollierten Beschichtungsvorgang vorteilhaft ist.With decreasing spray particle size, the oxidation plays an increasingly important role, whereby the oxidation can be reduced or prevented with a shielding gas (relevant in arc spraying). Small spray particles can better follow the gas flow, which is advantageous for a controlled coating process.
