Book DIRECT METAL LASER SINTERING OF TI 6AL 4V ALLOY  PROCESS PROPERTY GEOMETRY EMPIRICAL MODELING AND OPTIMIZATION

Download or read book DIRECT METAL LASER SINTERING OF TI 6AL 4V ALLOY PROCESS PROPERTY GEOMETRY EMPIRICAL MODELING AND OPTIMIZATION written by Behzad Fotovvati and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) is a widely used powder bed fusion (PBF) additive manufacturing (AM) technology that offers extensive capabilities to fabricate complex metallic components. In the DMLS process, part fabrication involves small moving melt-pools formed by the interaction of laser beam and metal powders. The formation of a melt-pool and subsequently its rapid solidification results in alteration of properties and microstructure of the product. Therefore, understanding and predicting relationships between DMLS process parameters and melt-pool characteristics is critical to control and improve the properties of parts. The melt-pool formation in this process is very similar to what occurs in metal laser welding, having solid metallic parts rather than metal powders, plus laser welding is more investigated and is better known compare to DMLS. So, a critical review of the literature on experimental and modeling studies on laser welding, with the focus being on the influence of process parameters on geometry, thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, microstructure, and porosity characteristics of the melt-pool is presented. However, the DMLS process has several variables, altering which increases the complexity of the correlations between them and the final properties. A solution is to isolate the variable sets from the other ones during the investigation. Therefore, keeping all the processing parameters constant, an investigation of the size and geometry dependence of the dimensional accuracy of the DMLS process is presented. For all features, with different geometries and different sizes, the percent error significantly increases with decreasing the feature size. Then, the effect of thickness, orientation, distance from free edges, and height on the mechanical properties and their correlations to material microstructure and thermal history as dictated by DMLS process parameters are investigated and the results are correlated to the porosity volume fraction and their elongation direction, prior grain width and orientation, nanoparticle volume fraction, martensitic decomposition to + and orthorhombic structure, and Oxygen content variation. Furthermore, the influence of five most influential DMLS processing parameters, i.e. laser power, scan speed, hatch spacing, layer thickness, and stripe width, on relative density, microhardness, and surface roughness are thoroughly investigated. Two design of experiment (DoE) methods, including the Taguchi and fractional factorial DoE for response surface method (RSM), along with an artificial neural network (ANN) are designed and trained to predict the response values. A multi-objective RSM model is developed for the optimization of DMLS processing parameters. It is shown that the proposed ANN model can most accurately predict various response properties of DMLS components..

Book Near Net Shape Fabrication Using Low Cost Titanium Alloy Powders

Download or read book Near Net Shape Fabrication Using Low Cost Titanium Alloy Powders written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of titanium in commercial aircraft production has risen steadily over the last half century. The aerospace industry currently accounts for 58% of the domestic titanium market. The Kroll process, which has been used for over 50 years to produce titanium metal from its mineral form, consumes large quantities of energy. And, methods used to convert the titanium sponge output of the Kroll process into useful mill products also require significant energy resources. These traditional approaches result in product forms that are very expensive, have long lead times of up to a year or more, and require costly operations to fabricate finished parts. Given the increasing role of titanium in commercial aircraft, new titanium technologies are needed to create a more sustainable manufacturing strategy that consumes less energy, requires less material, and significantly reduces material and fabrication costs. A number of emerging processes are under development which could lead to a breakthrough in extraction technology. Several of these processes produce titanium alloy powder as a product. The availability of low-cost titanium powders may in turn enable a more efficient approach to the manufacture of titanium components using powder metallurgical processing. The objective of this project was to define energy-efficient strategies for manufacturing large-scale titanium structures using these low-cost powders as the starting material. Strategies include approaches to powder consolidation to achieve fully dense mill products, and joining technologies such as friction and laser welding to combine those mill products into near net shape (NNS) preforms for machining. The near net shape approach reduces material and machining requirements providing for improved affordability of titanium structures. Energy and cost modeling was used to define those approaches that offer the largest energy savings together with the economic benefits needed to drive implementation. Technical feasibility studies were performed to identify the most viable approaches to NNS preform fabrication using basic powder metallurgy mill product forms as the building blocks and advanced joining techniques including fusion and solid state joining to assemble these building blocks into efficient machining performs.
