Description

TARIFNAME TOZ YATAK FÜZYON EKLEMELI IMALAT TEZGAHLARINDA TOZ KATMANININ ISITILMASINA DAIR YÖNTEM Teknolojik Alan: Bulus, toz yatakli eklemeli imalat tezgahlarinda kaynaklanabilirligi düsük olan metal tozlarinin da kullanilabilmesi için yapim haznesine serilen toz yüzeyinin indüksiyon ile isitildigi bir yöntem ve bu yönteme uygun bir tezgah ile ilgilidir. DESCRIPTION POWDER IN POWDER BED FUSION ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING MACHINES METHOD OF HEATING THE LAYER Technological Field: The invention was developed in powder bed additive manufacturing machines with low weldability. In order for metal powders to be used, the powder surface laid in the production chamber should be It is about a method in which it is heated by induction and a bench suitable for this method.

Teknigin Bilinen Durumu: Eklemeli imalat yöntemi ASTM standardi F2792-10'a göre “gelenek-sel makineyle isleme gibi çikarmali üretim metodolojilerinin aksine, malzemelerin 3 boyutlu model verilerinden nesneler yapmak için genellikle üst üste katmanlar seklinde birlestirilmesi sürecidir". Tarifname konusu bulus, burada bahsedilen imalat yönteminde kullanilabilir olmayan, kaynaklanabilirligi düsük metal tozlarinin da eklemeli imalat yönteminde kullanilabilir olmasini saglamaktadir. Known Status of the Technique: Additive manufacturing method is defined as “traditional” according to ASTM standard F2792-10. Unlike subtractive manufacturing methodologies such as machining, materials are often layered on top of each other to make objects from dimensional model data "The invention that is the subject of the description is the process of combining the Metal with low weldability that cannot be used in the manufacturing method It also enables powders to be used in the additive manufacturing method.

Metallere yönelik farkli eklemeli imalat teknolojileri vardir. Bunlardan en yaygin olani toz yatak füzyon (kaynastirma) teknolojisidir. Bu yöntemde metal tozlari, enerji kaynagi olarak lazer veya elektron isini demeti kullanilarak seçili olarak ergitilir. There are different additive manufacturing technologies for metals. The most common of these The one is powder bed fusion technology. In this method, metal powders are selectively using laser or electron beam as the energy source is melted.

Lazer isin kaynakli toz yatak füzyon sürecinde, yapim haznesi toz yatagi üzerine bir toz katmani serilir ve bir lazer isini toz katmanini seçmeli olarak ergitilerek üretilecek parçayi tozlari birbirleriyle ve bir alt katmandaki parçayla kaynatarak parça katmanini olusturmaktadir. Ardindan “alttas” olarak anilan platform genellikle 20-100 pm kadar alçaltilmakta ve yeni bir toz katmani serici biçak vasitasiyla yukari kaldirilan toz besleme haznesinden yapim haznesi toz yatagina dogru serilmektedir. Lazer isini bu katmanda da seçili bir alana uygulanarak, tozlar ergitmekte, birbirleriyle ve alt katmanla birlestirmektedir. Bu süreç çevrimi parçanin insa boyuna ulasana kadar devam eder. Islem bittiginde üretilen parça ve isin ile birlesmemis (füzyon olmamis) tozlar ayrilarak yapim haznesinden çikartilmaktadir. (Bakiniz sekil- 1) Lazer toz yatak füzyon (LPBF) eklemeli imalat teknolojisi özü itibariyle kaynak prosesidir. Metal tozlarinin birbirleriyle ve alt katmandaki parçayla birlesmesinde kaynaklama görülen mekanizmalar isler. Dolayisiyla metal tozu alasimlarinin kaynaklanabilirligi, lazer toz yatak füzyon teknolojisi ile parça üretilebilirligini etkileyen faktörlerdendir. Bazi malzemeler ergitme sirasinda veya ergitme sonrasindaki sogutma sirasinda çatlama meydana getirebilir. In the laser beam-induced powder bed fusion process, the build chamber powder bed A layer of powder is laid on top and a laser beam is selectively removed from the powder layer. The part to be produced by melting is mixed with the powders with each other and with the part in the lower layer. It forms the fragment layer by boiling. Then referred to as "subordinate" The platform is usually lowered by 20-100 pm and a new layer of dust is laid. powder from the powder feeding chamber, which is lifted up by the blade. It is laid out on the bed. The laser beam is directed to a selected area in this layer. By applying it, the powders melt and combine with each other and with the substrate. This The process cycle continues until the part reaches human height. When the process is finished The production is made by separating the produced parts and the powders that are not fused with the beam. is removed from its chamber. (See figure-1) Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) additive manufacturing technology is essentially welding. process. Combination of metal powders with each other and with the part in the lower layer welding mechanisms work. Therefore, metal powder alloys weldability, part manufacturability with laser powder bed fusion technology is one of the influencing factors. Some materials are removed during melting or It may crack during subsequent cooling.

Lazer toz yatak füzyonunda (LPBF) çatlamaya duyarli malzemeleri islemek ve bilesen bozulmasini azaltmak için bir ön isitma sistemi yaygin olarak kullanilir. Ön isitma termal gradyanlari ve dolayisiyla iç gerilmeleri azaltir. Geleneksel ön isitma sistemleri parçanin insa edildigi yapim haznesinin altindan toz yatagini ve parçayi rezistanslarla isitir. Ancak bu isitma yetersizdir: ait tabaka ile çalisma düzlemi arasindaki mesafe, islem boyunca artar ve böylece çalisma düzleminde sicaklik azalir. Bunu telafi etmek için, tabandan verilen sicaklik arttirilabilir, fakat bu sicaklik ait tabakanin erime sicakligi asilmamalidir. Isitma miktari yapi yüksekligi ile sinirlidir. Machining crack-sensitive materials in laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) and A preheating system is commonly used to reduce component degradation. Preheating reduces thermal gradients and therefore internal stresses. traditional front Heating systems remove the powder bed from the bottom of the build chamber where the part is built. and heats the part with resistances. However, this heating is insufficient: with the layer of The distance between the working plane increases throughout the process and thus the working The temperature decreases in the plane. To compensate for this, the heat given off from the base It can be increased, but this temperature should not exceed the melting temperature of the corresponding layer. Heating The amount is limited by the height of the building.

Elektron isin demeti ergitme ile yapilan eklemeli imalat teknolojilerinde, üretim haznesinde serilmis tozun üzerinde elektron isin demeti, gücü ve çapi kontrollü olarak, belirlenen bölge ve desenlerde, elektromanyetik alanlar ile tarama yaptirilarak isitma gerçeklestirilebilir. Bu sayede gamma titanyum aluminid gibi malzemeler elektron isin demeti ergitme sistemli toz yatak füzyon teknolojisi tezgahlarda üretilebilirler. Elektron isin demeti ergitme sistemlerinde isin demetinin hareketini elektromanyetik alanlar ile saglandigindan çok hizlidir.In additive manufacturing technologies made by electron beam melting, production The electron beam on the powder laid in the chamber is controlled by its power and diameter. scanning with electromagnetic fields in specified regions and patterns. Heating can be achieved by doing this. In this way, like gamma titanium aluminide materials powder bed fusion technology with electron beam melting system They can be produced on looms. In electron beam melting systems Since the movement of the beam is provided by electromagnetic fields, it is very fast.

Buna karsilik lazer isin kaynakli sistemlerde lazer isini elektromekanik olarak aynalarin hareket ettirildigi galvo kafalarla yönlendirilirler. Bu yöntem elektron isin demeti ergitme sistemlerine göre çok yavastir. Ayrica Lazer isini çapi çok küçüktür. Bu nedenlerle lazer isini toz yatak yüzeyini isitma için kullanilamaz. On the other hand, in laser beam sourced systems, the laser beam is transmitted electromechanically. They are guided by galvo heads through which the mirrors are moved. This method electron It is very slow compared to beam melting systems. Also, the laser beam is very wide in diameter. is small. For these reasons, laser beam cannot be used to heat the powder bed surface.

Toz yatak yüzeyini isitmak için gelistirilen diger bir çözüm ise 808 nm dalgaboyuna sahip düsey-bosluklu yüzey-yayilimli lazerle (vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers - VCSEL) toz yatak yüzeyini isitmaktir. Bu yöntemin dezavantaji, lazer kaynaginin konumu nedeniyle isitmanin toz yataginin bütün alaninda gerçeklesmesi, sadece istenilen yerlerin isitilmasinin yapilamamasi ve isitma için gerekli sürenin yüksek olmasidir. dokümaninda, lazer ile isitma tekniginin kullanildigi, amonyak gazi gibi çesitli kimyasallarin yönteme dahil edildigi bir yöntemden bahsedilmektedir. Yöntemin amaci, nihai ürünün tezgahtan ayrilmasini kolaylastirmaktir. dokümaninda, toz yatakli imalat yöntemi tarif edilmektedir. Bahsi geçen yöntemde, ikinci bir lazer kaynagi ile tozlar isitilmaktadir. Ayrica infrared isin kaynagi ile isitma yapilabildiginden de bahsedilmektedir. Fakat yöntemde indüksiyon ile isitmadan bahsedilmemektedir. Another solution developed to heat the powder bed surface is 808 nm. with a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser with wavelength surface-emitting lasers - VCSEL) is to heat the powder bed surface. This method The disadvantage is that, due to the location of the laser source, heating affects the entire powder bed. area, only the desired areas cannot be heated, and The time required for heating is high. In the document, laser heating technique is used, various gases such as ammonia gas are used. A method in which chemicals are included in the method is mentioned. your method Its purpose is to facilitate the removal of the final product from the counter. In the document, the powder bed manufacturing method is described. Aforementioned In this method, powders are heated with a second laser source. Also infrared ray It is also mentioned that heating can be done with a source. But in the method Induction heating is not mentioned.
