Description
本发明涉及增材制造领域,尤其涉及一种连续纤维增强复合材料的增材制造方法。
连续纤维增强聚合物基复合材料具有比强度高、比刚度大、可设计性强等优点,已广泛应用于航空航天、军工等领域。增材制造技术是基于离散-堆积原理的新兴成型工艺。由于增材制造技术能够高效、低成本自由成型复杂零件同时赋予设计极大自由度,因此被逐渐应用于连续纤维增强聚合物基复合材料成型。相比于树脂转移模塑、模压、热压等传统成型技术,通过增材制造技术来成型连续纤维增强聚合物基复合材料具有无需模具、工艺灵活、开发周期短等优势。同时,由于复材增材制造能一体化成型,具有优异性能的复杂结构,在超材料、轻质结构、智能电路开发等方面具有广阔的发展前景。
现有连续纤维复合材料增材制造技术大多基于熔融沉积成型工艺(Fused Deposition Modeling,简称FDM),基质材料与纤维共挤出技术,是一种由点到线,再由线到面的顺序凝固方式,由于受限于打印过程中纤维的连续特性,连续纤维与基质材料固化较慢,小范围出现大幅度拐角时纤维排布容易出现失真,所以基于FDM的连续纤维增强复合材料3D打印具有打印速度慢、纤维排布不准确等缺点。
因此,现有技术仍有待于改进和发展。
发明内容
鉴于上述现有技术的不足,本发明的目的在于提供一种连续纤维增强复合材料的增材制造方法,旨在解决现有技术存在打印速度慢、纤维排布不准确的问题。
