研究目的
To improve the process efficiency of additive technologies by increasing mass deposition rate and reducing postprocessing time through the modification of the shape and size of the molten pool via optimization of laser beam power distribution.
研究成果
Beam oscillation significantly affects the heat flux and molten pool dimensions during laser metal deposition. Increasing the oscillation amplitude up to the laser beam radius decreases the heat flux rapidly to 53%. Larger beam radii reduce the effect of amplitude on molten pool width and lower the allowable oscillation amplitude. Beam oscillation also promotes smoother wall surfaces without macroscopic waviness.
研究不足
The study is limited to Ti-6Al-4V alloy and may not be directly applicable to other materials. The effects of beam oscillation are analyzed under specific conditions, and variations in process parameters could lead to different outcomes.
