積層造形体の作製では、通常、積層造形物の残留応力除去、元素固溶および析出強化などを図るため、後熱処理を行って組織制御が行われている。たとえば、SUS316L造形物は、造形後、造形方向に沿い柱状晶組織となり、機械的特性には異方性が生じる。それを解消するため(等軸晶に整える)に、後熱処理が行われる。一方、後熱処理する際に材料の鋭敏化が発生したり、結晶粒径が粗大化して軟化が起こったりすることが課題となることがある。

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described here, and may be appropriately combined with or improved on the basis of a known technique without departing from the technical idea of the invention.

[積層造形用粉末]
上述した通り、本発明の積層造形用粉末は、鉄基合金にTi(チタン)を0.1質量%以上6質量%以下、B(ホウ素)を0.2質量%以上2質量%以下含む。このような組成を有することによって、固溶強化により強度を向上させると同時に、積層造形後の組織中に微細なTiBおよびTiB2のうちの少なくとも1つを分散させることができる。 [Powder for additive manufacturing]
As described above, the powder for additive manufacturing of the present invention contains 0.1% by mass or more and 6% by mass or less of Ti (titanium) and 0.2% by mass or more and 2% by mass or less of B (boron) in the iron-based alloy. By having such a composition, strength can be improved by solid solution strengthening, and at the same time, at least one of fine TiB and TiB 2 can be dispersed in the structure after the additive manufacturing.

As described above, the powder for additive manufacturing of the present invention contains 0.1% by mass or more and 6% by mass or less of Ti (titanium) and 0.2% by mass or more and 2% by mass or less of B (boron) in the iron-based alloy. By having such a composition, strength can be improved by solid solution strengthening, and at the same time, at least one of fine TiB and TiB 2 can be dispersed in the structure after the additive manufacturing.
積層造形体は、通常、造形後に合金を再結晶温度以上(例えば、SUS316Lでは、1000℃以上)に加熱し、結晶異方性を無くす(等軸晶)にする後熱処理が行われる。本発明の積層造形用は、上述した組成を有することによって積層造形体にTiBおよびTiB2のうちの少なくとも1つを析出させる。このTiBまたはTiB2が再結晶の結晶核となり、組織微細化と同時に結晶粒界の移動をピン止めする効果を発揮し、柱状晶の成長を抑制できる。この結果、積層造形後の後熱処理を行わなくても、結晶異方性を解消し、従来と同等以上の強度を達成することができる。
The layered model is usually subjected to post-heat treatment by heating the alloy to a recrystallization temperature or higher (for example, 1000° C. or higher in SUS316L) after modeling to eliminate crystal anisotropy (equix crystal). In the additive manufacturing of the present invention, at least one of TiB and TiB 2 is deposited on the additive manufacturing body by having the composition described above. This TiB or TiB 2 serves as a crystal nucleus for recrystallization, has the effect of pinning the movement of crystal grain boundaries at the same time as the structure is refined, and can suppress the growth of columnar crystals. As a result, it is possible to eliminate the crystal anisotropy and achieve a strength equal to or higher than that of the conventional one without performing post-heat treatment after the additive manufacturing.
Tiの含有量が0.1質量%未満およびBの含有量が0.2質量%未満であると、TiBまたはTiB2を析出させるのに十分ではない。Tiの含有量が6質量%を超えるとコストの観点で好ましくない。Bは融点が低く、凝固が早いため、含有量が2質量%を超えると、積層造形後の割れが生じやすくなり、好ましくない。
When the Ti content is less than 0.1% by mass and the B content is less than 0.2% by mass, it is not sufficient to precipitate TiB or TiB 2 . If the Ti content exceeds 6 mass %, it is not preferable from the viewpoint of cost. B has a low melting point and rapidly solidifies. Therefore, if the content exceeds 2 mass %, cracking tends to occur after layered manufacturing, which is not preferable.
TiとBの合計含有量は、1.5質量%以上2質量%以下であることがより好ましい。
The total content of Ti and B is more preferably 1.5% by mass or more and 2% by mass or less.
積層造形用粉末は、鉄基合金組成を有することが好ましく、より具体的にはオーステナイト系ステンレス鋼の組成であることが好ましい。さらに具体的には、C(炭素)を0.08質量%以下、Mn(マンガン)を2質量%以下、Ni(ニッケル)を10質量%以上15質量%以下、Cr(クロム)を16質量%以上18質量%以下、Mo(モリブデン)を2質量%以上3質量%以下含み、残部がFe(鉄)および不可避元素である組成が好ましい。このような組成を有する合金の1つとして、SUS316Lが挙げられる。
The additive manufacturing powder preferably has an iron-based alloy composition, more specifically, an austenitic stainless steel composition. More specifically, C (carbon) is 0.08 mass% or less, Mn (manganese) is 2 mass% or less, Ni (nickel) is 10 mass% or more and 15 mass% or less, and Cr (chrome) is 16 mass%. A composition containing 18% by mass or more and 2% by mass or more and 3% by mass or less of Mo (molybdenum) with the balance being Fe (iron) and an unavoidable element is preferable. One of alloys having such a composition is SUS316L.

Hereinafter, S1 to S3 will be described in detail.
S1:原料混合溶解工程
原料混合溶解工程S1では、所望の合金組成となるように原料を混合・溶解して溶湯10を作製する。原料の混合方法や溶解方法に特段の限定はなく、鉄基合金の製造における従前の方法を利用できる。例えば、溶解方法として真空溶解を好適に利用できる。また、真空炭素脱酸法などを併用して、溶湯10を精錬することが好ましい。合金組成は、上述した通りである。 S1: Raw Material Mixing and Melting Step In the raw material mixing and melting step S1, raw materials are mixed and melted so as to have a desired alloy composition, and amolten metal 10 is produced. There is no particular limitation on the mixing method or the melting method of the raw materials, and the conventional method in the production of the iron-based alloy can be used. For example, vacuum melting can be preferably used as the melting method. Further, it is preferable to refine the molten metal 10 by using a vacuum carbon deoxidizing method in combination. The alloy composition is as described above.

S2:アトマイズ工程
アトマイズ工程S2では、溶湯10から合金粉末20を形成する。本工程S2で得られる合金粉末20が、本発明の積層造形用粉末の一形態である。アトマイズ方法に特段の限定はなく、従前の方法を利用できる。例えば、高純度・均質組成・球形状粒子が得られるガスアトマイズ法や遠心力アトマイズ法を好ましく用いることができる。 S2: Atomizing Step In the atomizing step S2, thealloy powder 20 is formed from the molten metal 10. The alloy powder 20 obtained in this step S2 is one form of the additive manufacturing powder of the present invention. There is no particular limitation on the atomizing method, and the conventional method can be used. For example, a gas atomizing method or a centrifugal atomizing method, which can obtain spherical particles having a high purity, a homogeneous composition, can be preferably used.

本発明の合金粉末20の平均粒径に特段の限定はないが、該合金粉末20を用いて造形する際の流動性や充填性の観点から、5μm以上200μm以下が好ましく、10μm以上100μm以下がより好ましく、10μm以上50μm以下が更に好ましい。
The average particle size of the alloy powder 20 of the present invention is not particularly limited, but is preferably 5 μm or more and 200 μm or less, and 10 μm or more and 100 μm or less from the viewpoint of fluidity and filling property when molding using the alloy powder 20. More preferred is 10 μm or more and 50 μm or less.
後述する積層造形工程S3においては、合金粉末20の平均粒径が5μm未満になると、合金粉末20の流動性が低下して(例えば、積層造形における合金粉末床の形成性が低下して)、造形物の形状精度が低下する要因となる。一方、合金粉末20の平均粒径が200μm超になると、積層造形工程S3における合金粉末床の局所溶融・急冷凝固の制御が難しくなり、合金粉末20の溶融が不十分になったり造形物の表面粗さが増加したりする要因となる。
In the additive manufacturing step S3 described below, when the average particle size of the alloy powder 20 is less than 5 μm, the fluidity of the alloy powder 20 decreases (for example, the formability of the alloy powder bed in additive manufacturing decreases), This is a factor that reduces the shape accuracy of the modeled object. On the other hand, if the average particle size of the alloy powder 20 exceeds 200 μm, it becomes difficult to control the local melting and rapid solidification of the alloy powder bed in the layered modeling step S3, the melting of the alloy powder 20 becomes insufficient, and It becomes a factor of increasing roughness.
S3:積層造形・焼結工程
積層造形工程S3では、上記で用意した合金粉末20を用いた積層造形法(Additive Manufacturing、AM法とも称する。)により、所望形状を有する合金造形物(AM体)30を形成する。本工程S3で得られるAM体30が、本発明の積層造形体の一形態である。焼成炉による焼結ではなく、レーザによる局所溶融・急冷凝固によってニアネットシェイプの金属部材を造形する積層造形法の適用により、鍛造材と同等以上の硬度とともに、複雑形状を有する三次元部材を作製することができる。積層造形方法に特段の限定はなく、従前の方法を利用できるが、例えば、選択的レーザ溶融(SLM)法、レーザ肉盛を用いることが好ましい。 S3: Additive Manufacturing/Sintering Step In the additive manufacturing step S3, an alloy molded article (AM body) having a desired shape is formed by a additive manufacturing method (also referred to as an AM method) using thealloy powder 20 prepared above. Form 30. The AM body 30 obtained in this step S3 is one form of the layered modeling body of the present invention. By applying the additive manufacturing method to form a near net shape metal member by local melting and rapid solidification by laser instead of sintering in a firing furnace, a three-dimensional member with a complicated shape with hardness equal to or higher than that of a forged material is applied. can do. The additive manufacturing method is not particularly limited, and a conventional method can be used, but it is preferable to use, for example, a selective laser melting (SLM) method or a laser overlay.

AM体30は、上述した通り、TiBおよびTiB2のうちの少なくとも1つの結晶を含む。これは、本工程において鉄基合金から析出したものであり、この結晶の粒径は、100μm以下である。積層造形後にTiBまたはTiB2の結晶を合金組織中に微細に分散することにより、等軸晶組織を形成し、機械的特性を向上できる。このような組織を有することによって、積層造形後に後熱処理を行うこと無く、従来と同等以上の強度を達成することができる。
As described above, the AM body 30 includes at least one crystal of TiB and TiB 2 . This was precipitated from the iron-based alloy in this step, and the crystal grain size is 100 μm or less. By finely dispersing TiB or TiB 2 crystals in the alloy structure after the additive manufacturing, an equiaxed crystal structure can be formed and mechanical properties can be improved. By having such a structure, it is possible to achieve strength equal to or higher than conventional strength without performing post heat treatment after layered manufacturing.
AM体としては、例えば流体機械(圧縮機およびポンプ等)のインペラが挙げられる。
The AM body may be, for example, an impeller of a fluid machine (compressor, pump, etc.).
