Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for the additive manufacturing of three-dimensional components by applying a building material layer by layer and locally selective solidification of the building material.
- the invention also relates to a manufacturing device for the additive manufacturing of three-dimensional components and a corresponding irradiation unit for such a manufacturing device.
- Three-dimensional components by applying layers and locally selective solidification of a building material are known in principle from the prior art. At least one corresponding coating unit is usually provided for application in layers. For the locally selective consolidation, at least one corresponding
- Irradiation unit e.g. comprising at least one laser
- EP 1 583 628 B1 and DE 10 2012 202 487 A1 known to move the point of impact of the beam on a non-linear path. This is achieved, for example, in EP 2 839 994 A1 in that a linear movement of the
- Irradiation curve (irradiation path) a term perpendicular to this linear movement is superimposed, so that in particular sinusoidal
- Irradiation curves can be achieved.
- DE 10 2012 202 487 A1 also describes a helical course, here in the form of a cycloid.
- the shortest possible construction time should also be realized.
- the object (according to a first aspect of the invention) is achieved by a method for additive manufacturing of three-dimensional components by applying a building material layer by layer and locally selective solidification of the building material by at least one on the building material
- an irradiation path of the impinging beam i.e. in particular a path of a point of impact or impact area of the beam
- an irradiation path of the impinging beam deviates from an, in particular straight, feed center line M during the advance, whereby at least a line parallel to M or corresponding to M is crossed by the irradiation path at three points P, 1 P2 and P3 successively (in the chronological order mentioned: first P, 1 then P2, then P3), so that:
- - P3 is between P1 and P2, at a distance P1 to P1 and one
- the irradiation path between P1 and P2 is a point-like maximum and / or at least one such maximum is a (straight) line-like maximum with a length I (or also forms such a line-like maximum), for which the following applies: I £ 0.33; preferably I £ 0.32, more preferably I £ 0.30 * (P1 + p2), more preferably I £ 0.20 * (P1 + p2), possibly I £ 0, 10 * (P1 + p2) and / or at least one such maximum is a (straight) line-shaped maximum with a length I. (or such a linear maximum also forms), for which applies: I £ 0.375 * p2; preferably I £ 0.325 * p2, more preferably I £ 0.200 * p2, if necessary
- At least one of the aforementioned conditions applies to several, e.g. B. at least 50% of all, or at least 75% of all, or all such maxima (each based on an assigned section between P1 and P2).
- a point-like maximum is to be understood in particular as a maximum that does not lie within the ends of any straight section (and also does not form any of the ends).
- a linear maximum is to be understood in particular as a maximum that forms a straight section or consists of such a section.
- the respective length I should then in particular be the length between the two ends of the straight section (the ends in turn being defined by the fact that the path deviates from the straight course or this ends).
- a (sub) section should not be decisive in this sense for the determination of the linear maximum or the length I.
- the heat input can continue to take place more uniformly (in particular in a direction transverse to the feed direction).
- the long straight sections, as shown in US 2017/0341145 A1 in FIG. 2B, and the associated (in the transverse direction) comparatively localized heat input are avoided. This can reduce undesirable stresses.
- the maximum of a deviation from M, in particular in a section (containing the maximum) of the irradiation path between P1 and P2, is preferably a component of a curved section.
- the curvature can be continuous (such as an arc of a circle or a section of an ellipse). However, discontinuous shapes (such as the tip of a triangle) are also conceivable. In this respect, can the curvature also approaches infinity (however, it should preferably not be zero, i.e. it should exist at all).
- a radius of curvature (in the region of the respective maximum) is preferably £ 10 mm, more preferably £ 1 mm, possibly £ 800mm or £ 500mm.
- the irradiation path does not have any straight sections that are parallel to M.
- the irradiation path does not have any straight sections at all.
- the irradiation path has straight sections, these form (in total) preferably less than 80%, more preferably less than 50%, possibly less than 25% or less than 10% of the irradiation path (or of its length, in particular in an imaginary way , straight drawn state of the irradiation path) from and / or more than 2% of the irradiation path (or its length, in particular in an imaginary, straight drawn state of the irradiation path).
- the irradiation path has straight sections, at least one (possibly several or all) of these is (are) preferably shorter than, in particular at most 0.5 times or at most 0.25 times as large as the width of the following the consolidation path explained in more detail or, such as a distance between the envelopes explained in more detail below (in particular if these run parallel to one another and straight).
- the irradiation path has straight sections, at least one (possibly several or all) of these is (are) preferably shorter than 1 mm, possibly shorter than 250 mm or shorter than 100 mm or even shorter than 50 mm.
- comparatively large surface areas are generated in which the building material (powder) is heated and cooled comparatively slowly. This is achieved in particular by the fact that the impinging beam is returned in phases comparatively far against the feed direction. This can reduce tensions. Furthermore, in particular, a comparatively short construction time can be achieved.
- the processing is preferably comparative demanding materials such as Cu are possible.
- a stress reduction in the material (building material) is achieved in particular by the fact that the building material (powder) is heated and melted comparatively slowly and then also slowly cooled. During the beginning of cooling, a renewed input of heat takes place when the same irradiation area is passed over. Comparatively demanding materials such as copper (Cu) can be processed more easily because of their porosity
- (Irregularities) in the solidified material can be at least partially cured by an extended (prolonged) supply of irradiation.
- the above object is achieved in particular by a method for the additive manufacturing of three-dimensional components, in particular according to the first aspect, by applying a building material in layers and locally selective solidification of the building material by at least one advancing direction that hits the building material Deviations from this, following) beam, being a
- Irradiation path i.e. in particular a path of an impact point or
- Area of impact of the beam) of the impinging beam during the advance deviates from a, in particular straight, advance center line M, with a deviation from M passing through at least two at least local maxima s1 and s2, where (or for which) the following applies in terms of amount:.
- the irradiation path is crossed successively at three points P, 1 P2 and P3 (in the chronological order mentioned: first P, 1 then P2, then P3), where: P2 is further forward than P.1 in the feed direction
- P2 is further forward than P.1 in the feed direction
- This condition is preferably (at least) in a range between s1 / 2 and s2 / 2.
- Irregularities can be reduced.
- An advancement is generally an advancement or propagation of a solidification path (resulting from the irradiation) in a
- a direction of advance is to be understood as meaning, in particular, a direction of propagation of a consolidation path.
- the feed direction is preferably constant (over at least one row or column during the entire irradiation to produce the object), but can also vary (for example, if the consolidation path is not a linear path, but a curved, i.e. non-linear path).
- the feed center line M is to be understood in particular as that line which runs centrally within the consolidation path. If the progression of the consolidation path is straight (for example during irradiation in
- the feed center line is also straight.
- the feed center line M can also be determined in that an envelope curve E1 (straight in embodiments) (or envelope curve, analogous to a beat for the superposition of two oscillations) is formed for all upper maxima and one for all lower maxima (in
- Embodiments straight) envelope curve E2 is formed and the feed center line M is placed exactly between these envelopes.
- envelope curve is only to be understood as a delimitation to the lower envelope curve, in the sense that the envelopes lie on different sides of the center line.
- envelope curve envelope curve
- the consolidation track is, in particular, the area that is through the
- Irradiation (of the irradiation unit, in particular a laser) is tempered to such an extent that the construction material melts (and solidifies after cooling).
- This consolidation path is determined (at least approximately) by the area between the envelopes E1, E2 and (additionally) by a beam width or width of a thermal effective area (half such a width in the area of both envelopes) of the incident beam.
- a thermal effective area is to be understood in particular as that area around the irradiation path (assumed as a line) in which the beam is exposed (Laser) such an energy input is introduced that the building material is heated.
- This width can be assumed to be 2.5 * d86, for example.
- the d86 diameter should preferably be used, with d86 again being that
- Diameter means within which 86% of the radiation power (of the beam, in particular the laser beam) is introduced.
- the radiation power of the beam, in particular the laser beam
- Diameter d86 of 80 mm means that 86% of the (laser) power hits an area with a diameter of 80 mm.
- the (laser) power can optionally be distributed according to the Gaussian distribution. Other distributions are possible.
- the incident laser beam preferably leads to heating in an effective area with a diameter of (approx.) 200 mm (around the respective center point of the irradiation path). The warming of the
- the heated area can (depending on the point in time) be preheated or sintered or (at a later point in time) a weld pool can form, which the
- Radiation source (in particular by the laser) is generated.
- the path referred to as the irradiation path should preferably be one
- the actual trajectory of the beam can be from it
- the inertia of the deflector can lead to a deviation from the theoretical path of the beam.
- a temperature profile within the consolidation path can be controlled, for example, by the power of the irradiation source, the focus width of the beam and / or the speed at which the beam moves. These parameters can be empirically adapted to the properties of the
- Construction material and the object to be created can be adapted.
