Description

基于3D金属打印的两机联动加工方法及系统Two-machine linkage processing method and system based on 3D metal printing

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及3D金属打印技术领域,尤其涉及一种有关增材与减材制造同时进行的新型加工方式,并涉及了一套完善的可实现该加工方式技术过程的成形系统。The present invention relates to the technical field of 3D metal printing, in particular to a new processing method in which additive and subtractive manufacturing are performed simultaneously, and to a complete forming system capable of realizing the technical process of the processing method.

背景技术Background technique

随着科技日趋发展,各个高增值产业对于零件的复杂度、强度、重量、性能和独特性的要求不断提高。而由于市场竞争激烈,客户要求的开发周期亦日益缩短,在此情况下,工业界中各种有关金属增材制造技术受到的重视程度日渐提高。金属增材技术中,金属3D打印过程已经成为了主流的工业技术,其可实现产品定制化,完成小批量生产及针对免组装设计及复杂结构零件的生产,而目前最为常用的金属增材制造技术为直接金属激光烧结技术(DMLS)及激光沉积技术(LDM)。With the development of science and technology, various high value-added industries have continuously increased the requirements for the complexity, strength, weight, performance and uniqueness of parts. Due to fierce market competition, the development cycle required by customers is increasingly shortened. Under such circumstances, various metal additive manufacturing technologies in the industry are increasingly valued. In metal additive technology, the metal 3D printing process has become the mainstream industrial technology, which can realize product customization, complete small batch production and the production of assembly-free design and complex structural parts. Currently, the most commonly used metal additive manufacturing The technologies are direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) and laser deposition (LDM).

直接金属激光烧结技术是一种利用高功率激光,基于计算机3D模型数据,逐层扫瞄预先铺设粉床上的金属粉末,令目标零件逐层烧结成形的技术。DMLS技术首先会使用零件切片软件将目标零件分割成一层层的结构,之后控制系统控制激光设备在铺设好金属粉材按照指令烧结,形成单层的剖面结构。之后粉仓会往下移动一个单位厚度,新空间会被粉末原料再次填补。填补后,激光再次接收数据并再进行扫描,此后粉仓与激光反复进行上述操作,逐层烧结而形成完整的目标零件,之后去除多余粉材即可。由于直接金属烧结技术是根据3D 模型分层建造的,因此该技术可以加工具有复杂内部结构的零件,同时此技术的成形精度较高。Direct metal laser sintering technology is a technology that uses high-power lasers to scan the metal powder on the pre-laid powder bed layer by layer based on computer 3D model data, so that the target parts are sintered layer by layer. DMLS technology first uses part slicing software to divide the target part into a layer-by-layer structure, and then the control system controls the laser equipment to sinter the laid metal powder according to the instructions to form a single-layer cross-sectional structure. After that, the powder bin will move down by one unit thickness, and the new space will be filled again by powder raw materials. After filling, the laser receives the data again and scans again. After that, the powder chamber and the laser repeat the above operations, sintering layer by layer to form a complete target part, and then remove the excess powder. Since the direct metal sintering technology is built in layers based on the 3D model, the technology can process parts with complex internal structures, and at the same time, the forming accuracy of this technology is high.

但是由于直接金属激光烧结技术基于的成形原理以及采用的设备、技术方式,此技术有以下的限制:However, due to the forming principle based on the direct metal laser sintering technology and the equipment and technical methods used, this technology has the following limitations:

1. 零件的制造过程是采用过一个填满粉材的托盘进行单层地局部烧结,然后再铺设一层新的粉材继续烧结,因此,倘若烧结突出的部分,底部必须要有支撑结构承托,此环节加大了材料消耗,且延长了加工时间。1. The manufacturing process of the part is to use a tray filled with powder for partial sintering in a single layer, and then lay a new layer of powder to continue sintering. Therefore, if the sintered protruding part must have a supporting structure at the bottom Support, this link increases the material consumption and prolongs the processing time.

2. 每一层的烧结结构需要连续,或者有下部的支撑结构保证目标零件的位置不在加工过程中发生偏移,此问题提高了成形的复杂度。2. The sintered structure of each layer needs to be continuous, or there must be a lower support structure to ensure that the position of the target part does not shift during processing, which increases the complexity of forming.

3. CNC设备通常只能控制激光头进行三轴移动,激光能有效射出的角度受到限制,因此减少了成形范围。同时为防止刮板在每一次铺设粉料时的运动破坏已成形的结构,烧结的突出部分悬垂角度要求一般低于50°。3. CNC equipment can only control the laser head for three-axis movement, and the angle at which the laser can be effectively emitted is limited, thus reducing the forming range. At the same time, in order to prevent the movement of the scraper from damaging the formed structure every time the powder is laid, the overhang angle of the sintered protruding part is generally required to be less than 50°.

4. 目标零件会受到粉床的空间限制。传统设备的结构复杂,可利用工作空间普遍偏小,因此只能制造体积较小的零件。4. The target part will be limited by the space of the powder bed. The structure of traditional equipment is complex, and the available working space is generally small, so only small parts can be manufactured.

5. 若涉及一些特别的附属结构制作,比如具有较大倒角的结构,由于此类结构不可以直接成形,则需要用其他方式加工完成后,再与主体结构结合,延长了生产流程,并增加了技术要求。5. If some special auxiliary structures are involved, such as structures with large chamfers, since such structures cannot be directly formed, they need to be processed in other ways and then combined with the main structure, prolonging the production process and Added technical requirements.

6. 只可以采用单一材料,若采用复合材料,会造成粉仓内部材料混合,不仅零件结构内的材料会发生掺杂,还会造成粉仓材料的污染。6. Only a single material can be used. If composite materials are used, the materials inside the powder bin will be mixed. Not only will the materials in the part structure be doped, but it will also cause pollution of the powder bin materials.

激光金属沉积技术,此技术作为目前最具市场前景的激光增材技术,利用机械手直接夹持激光沉积装置。在加工成形时,金属粉末经喷粉器直接喷射到需成形的位置,同时激光照射熔化材料,使材料在指定位置快速沉积以塑造形状。激光沉积技术的优势是激光可以灵活运动,而快速、灵活的移动能力容许其制造更复杂的零件,同时可省略很多复杂的支撑结构。Laser metal deposition technology, which is currently the most promising laser additive technology in the market, uses a manipulator to directly hold a laser deposition device. During processing and forming, the metal powder is directly sprayed to the position to be formed through the powder sprayer, and at the same time, the laser is irradiated to melt the material, so that the material is quickly deposited at the designated position to shape the shape. The advantage of laser deposition technology is that the laser can move flexibly, and the fast and flexible movement capability allows it to manufacture more complex parts, while many complex support structures can be omitted.

但激光金属沉积技术也有制造精度不高等缺点,导致此技术有以下的限制:However, laser metal deposition technology also has shortcomings such as low manufacturing accuracy, which leads to the following limitations of this technology:

1. 快速的烧结会在零件内部产生热应力,随着材料冷却以及加工的进行,内应力导致金属层扭曲。因此当金属沉积达一定厚度时,需要进行铣削加工以进行形状校正。1. Rapid sintering creates thermal stresses inside the part. As the material cools and processing progresses, the internal stresses cause the metal layer to distort. Therefore, when the metal deposit reaches a certain thickness, milling is required for shape correction.

2. 采用激光金属沉积制造的零件表面光洁度十分低,原因是金属粉材直接通过熔融而形成零件。因此需要通过后续的铣削过程来提高零件质量及表面光洁度。2. The surface finish of parts manufactured by laser metal deposition is very poor, because the metal powder is directly melted to form the part. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the part quality and surface finish through the subsequent milling process.

The structure of the turntable in the present invention will change flexibly according to the characteristics of the parts, so it is impossible to show all the designs in this manual.

图1~5显示了本发明一实施例进行零件加工的过程以及该实施例的各个组成部分,图6显示了该实施例的四工位转盘装置的结构。Figures 1 to 5 show the process of parts processing and the various components of the embodiment of the present invention, and Figure 6 shows the structure of the four-station turntable device of the embodiment.

如图所示,本发明基于3D金属打印的两机联动加工系统一实施例包括:激光沉积装置、转盘装置、数控铣床以及控制系统。上述系统将会根据实际加工零件的特点进行协同工作,以完成生产目标。由于本实施例使用四工位转盘装置作为技术说明,因此假设针对激光沉积所对应的工位为一号工位、之后按照俯视图顺时针顺序分别为二号、三号、四号工位。As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the two-machine linkage processing system based on 3D metal printing of the present invention includes: a laser deposition device, a turntable device, a CNC milling machine and a control system. The above systems will work together according to the characteristics of the actual processed parts to complete the production target. Since this embodiment uses a four-station turntable device as a technical description, it is assumed that the corresponding station for laser deposition is No. 1 station, followed by No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4 stations in a clockwise order according to the top view.

其中,激光沉积装置包括:六轴机械手1、激光发射头2、喷粉器3、粉仓4以及保护气体管道(图未示)。六轴机械手1夹持激光发射头2和喷粉器3。喷粉器3连接粉仓4,粉仓4盛有所需的金属粉材,当所需的金属材料种类需要大于一种时,可重复的增加粉仓4的数量以达到工艺要求。Among them, the laser deposition device includes: a six-axis manipulator 1, a laser emitting head 2, a powder injector 3, a powder bin 4, and a protective gas pipeline (not shown in the figure). The six-axis manipulator 1 holds the laser emitting head 2 and the powder sprayer 3 . The powder sprayer 3 is connected to the powder bin 4, which contains the required metal powder materials. When more than one type of metal material is required, the number of powder bins 4 can be increased repeatedly to meet the process requirements.

系统另一侧设置数控铣床5,此铣床可以做三轴运动。并且数控铣床5设置自动换刀装置和刀库6,根据所加工的零件的实际情况切换刀具,刀具可短时间切换,可更灵活、快速地进行不同种类的加工铣削。The other side of the system is provided with a CNC milling machine 5, which can perform three-axis motion. Moreover, the CNC milling machine 5 is equipped with an automatic tool changer and a tool magazine 6, and the tool can be switched according to the actual conditions of the parts to be processed. The tool can be switched in a short time, and different types of milling can be performed more flexibly and quickly.

同时系统设有综合的控制系统7,此控制系统将会对整体系统进行控制,以协同各个机械部分的工作以生产出目标零件。At the same time, the system is equipped with a comprehensive control system 7, which will control the overall system to coordinate the work of various mechanical parts to produce target parts.

转盘装置包括转盘8、四个托盘及升降机构。转盘8能做360°水平自由旋转,带动零件与托盘自由地在数控铣床与六轴机械手1间移动,进行不同的加工步骤。托盘下有三轴的升降机构,将在加工过程中带动托盘做旋转、倾斜及升降运动,因此托盘上的运动配合六轴机械手的运动,可自由加工零件的表面。转盘装置将会根据不同零件的加工需要进行选择,可选择2工位、4工位、6工位甚至根据特别成形特点不均匀分布的转盘装置。不同工位数量的转盘装置可实现不同的功能,例如4工位转盘可以很好的实现加工过程中的辅助冷却功能,当零件在激光沉积过程完毕后,可以随转盘转至空闲工位,进行冷却环节,之后再转入铣削工位进行加工。The turntable device comprises a turntable 8, four pallets and a lifting mechanism. The turntable 8 can freely rotate 360° horizontally, and drives parts and pallets to freely move between the CNC milling machine and the six-axis manipulator 1 to perform different processing steps. There is a three-axis lifting mechanism under the pallet, which will drive the pallet to rotate, tilt and lift during processing. Therefore, the movement on the pallet cooperates with the movement of the six-axis manipulator to freely process the surface of the part. The turntable device will be selected according to the processing needs of different parts, and the turntable device with 2 stations, 4 stations, 6 stations or even uneven distribution according to the special forming characteristics can be selected. The turntable device with different number of stations can realize different functions. For example, the 4-station turntable can well realize the auxiliary cooling function in the processing process. After the laser deposition process is completed, the parts can be transferred to the idle station with the turntable for Cooling stage, and then transferred to the milling station for processing.

根据图中展示,本发明的具体加工方式可以分解为以下几个步骤:Shown according to the figure, the specific processing method of the present invention can be decomposed into the following several steps:

准备步骤:设计目标零件3D 模型的CAD 档案,在设计过程中,由于金属沉积过程中的零件存在误差而需要进行铣削加工,因此所绘制的3D模型需要预留适当的厚度以方便后续铣床加工。当3D模型CAD档案设计完成后,将零件3D 模型的CAD 档案导入控制系统中,控制系统将利用3D金属打印软件拆分零部件,将其解析成一套完整的加工方案并将资料实时传输至系统各个部分,激光沉积装置接收数据,准备开始打印。Preparation steps: Design the CAD file of the 3D model of the target part. During the design process, milling is required due to errors in the parts during the metal deposition process. Therefore, the drawn 3D model needs to reserve an appropriate thickness for subsequent milling. After the 3D model CAD file design is completed, import the CAD file of the 3D model of the part into the control system, and the control system will use 3D metal printing software to split the parts, analyze them into a complete processing plan and transmit the data to the system in real time For each part, the laser deposition device receives data and is ready to start printing.

步骤1:拥有4个工位的转盘8旋转至指定位置,使转盘8上对称放置的两个托盘A、C分别置于激光沉积装置以及数控铣床5之下。此时,处于激光发射头2之下的金属沉积区升降机构9上升,当接触到托盘A时,金属沉积区升降机构9将会通过固定机构连接托盘A,在加工过程中,金属沉积区升降机构9可通过本身的三轴设计,带动托盘A进行旋转、倾斜以及上下运动。之后,金属沉积区升降机构9持续上升至控制系统7所指定的位置,如图1所示,六轴机械手1、激光发射头2以及喷粉器3收到控制系统7的指令,开始在托盘A上进行零件A的第一部分(此后简称为零件10)的打印过程。此时,六轴机械手1带动激光发射头2以及喷粉器3运动,当运动到指定位置时,喷粉器3开始喷射金属粉末,同时激光发射头2启动射出高能量激光,在瞬间熔化金属粉末材料并使其沉积到指定的位置之上。在此过程中,会有保护气体持续吹出保护沉积的部分不发生氧化。Step 1: The turntable 8 with 4 stations is rotated to a designated position, so that the two trays A and C placed symmetrically on the turntable 8 are respectively placed under the laser deposition device and the CNC milling machine 5 . At this time, the lifting mechanism 9 in the metal deposition area under the laser emitting head 2 rises. When it touches the tray A, the lifting mechanism 9 in the metal deposition area will connect the tray A through the fixing mechanism. During the processing, the metal deposition area lifts up and down. The mechanism 9 can drive the tray A to rotate, tilt and move up and down through its own three-axis design. Afterwards, the lifting mechanism 9 in the metal deposition area continues to rise to the position specified by the control system 7. As shown in Figure 1, the six-axis manipulator 1, the laser emitting head 2 and the powder sprayer 3 receive instructions from the control system 7 and start to place the trays on the pallet. The printing process of the first part of part A (hereafter simply referred to as part 10) is carried out on A. At this time, the six-axis manipulator 1 drives the laser emitting head 2 and the powder injector 3 to move. When the movement reaches the designated position, the powder injector 3 starts to spray metal powder, and the laser emitting head 2 starts to shoot high-energy laser at the same time, melting the metal instantly. Powder material and deposit it on the designated location. During this process, a protective gas is continuously blown out to protect the deposited part from oxidation.

此时,激光发射头会利用高强度激光把喷射出的金属粉材直接熔化并沉积到程序指定的位置;喷粉器则连接金属粉仓,以设定的喷粉速度供给材料。六轴机械手可带动激光发射头和喷粉器作六轴移动,因此激光发射头和喷粉器可灵活自由地调节射出方向,配合升降机构的三轴,此整体系统可以达到一个广泛的加工角度,以便进行复杂结构的激光金属沉积操作。另外,沉积速度亦可凭借机械手的移动速度和喷粉器的供料速度共同调较。当零件需要采用复合材料时,激光沉积装置可连接多于一个金属粉仓,根据指令选择不同的材料进行沉积。例如,一个金属沉积装置若连接上装有铜和钢的金属粉仓,喷粉器便能在同一件零件上进行铜和钢的激光沉积,容许更大的零件复杂度。At this time, the laser emitting head will use high-intensity laser to directly melt and deposit the ejected metal powder to the position specified by the program; the powder sprayer is connected to the metal powder bin to supply the material at the set powder spraying speed. The six-axis manipulator can drive the laser emitter and powder injector to move in six axes, so the laser emitter and powder injector can flexibly and freely adjust the injection direction. With the three-axis lifting mechanism, this overall system can achieve a wide range of processing angles , in order to carry out laser metal deposition operations of complex structures. In addition, the deposition speed can also be adjusted by the moving speed of the manipulator and the feeding speed of the duster. When the parts need to use composite materials, the laser deposition device can be connected to more than one metal powder chamber, and different materials can be selected for deposition according to the instructions. For example, if a metal deposition unit is connected to a metal powder bin containing copper and steel, the powder sprayer can perform laser deposition of copper and steel on the same part, allowing for greater part complexity.

步骤2:图2表示了为零件10加工完毕,升降机构下落,接触托盘并将其放置于转盘的过程示意图。如图2所示,当六轴机械手1、激光发射头2以及喷粉器3共同工作完成零件10之后,金属沉积区升降机构9缓缓下降,当托盘A接触到转盘8时,金属沉积区升降机构9解除连接装置,使托盘A放置于转盘8之上,同时托盘A底部与转盘8之间应存在限制位移的结构,可以保证托盘A不会在运输过程中在转盘8上发生滑移,以及保证整个运输过程中托盘以及零件的位置精度。Step 2: FIG. 2 shows a schematic diagram of the process of the part 10 being processed, the lifting mechanism falling, contacting the pallet and placing it on the turntable. As shown in Figure 2, after the six-axis manipulator 1, the laser emitting head 2 and the powder sprayer 3 work together to complete the part 10, the lifting mechanism 9 in the metal deposition area slowly descends. When the tray A touches the turntable 8, the metal deposition area The lifting mechanism 9 releases the connection device, so that the pallet A is placed on the turntable 8. At the same time, there should be a structure to limit the displacement between the bottom of the pallet A and the turntable 8, which can ensure that the pallet A will not slip on the turntable 8 during transportation. , and ensure the position accuracy of pallets and parts during the entire transportation process.

步骤3:图3表示了为转盘8第一次转动之后,金属沉积区升降机构9上升开始加工零件B的第一部分(此后简称为零件11)的过程示意图。当零件10于一号工位沉积完成之后,随着转盘8的转动,托盘A运动至二号工位,而下一个托盘B运动至一号工位。此时金属沉积区升降机构9再次向上移动,连接托盘B并升高,配合激光沉积装置进行加工生产出零件11。此时,第二次沉积的结构可以与第一次沉积过程相同以生产同样的零件,也可以根据指令生产全新的零件结构,这样的转盘设计赋予了生产过程更大的灵活性,用户可以根据自己的实际需求批量生产零件或一次性生产不同的零件。Step 3: FIG. 3 shows a schematic diagram of the process of the lifting mechanism 9 in the metal deposition area rising to start processing the first part of part B (hereinafter referred to as part 11 ) after the turntable 8 rotates for the first time. After the parts 10 are deposited at the No. 1 station, with the rotation of the turntable 8, the tray A moves to the No. 2 station, and the next tray B moves to the No. 1 station. At this time, the lifting mechanism 9 in the metal deposition area moves upward again, connects to the tray B and lifts up, and cooperates with the laser deposition device to process and produce parts 11 . At this time, the structure of the second deposition can be the same as the first deposition process to produce the same part, or a completely new part structure can be produced according to the order. This turntable design gives greater flexibility to the production process, and the user can according to Mass-produce parts according to your own actual needs or produce different parts at one time.

针对此时处于二号工位的零件10,则可以利用此空闲的时间进行冷却,由于激光沉积过程是熔融金属粉末的堆叠,所以加工完成的瞬间,成形零件实际具有很高的温度,内部存在复杂的应力且并没有完全硬化。因此对于较为大型、结构复杂的零件,在进行铣削加工之前一定要进行冷却,使半成品零件冷却硬化,保证内应力处在一个稳定状态,以减小加工尺寸误差。除冷却作用以外,此多工位转盘的独特设计赋予了整个加工过程更多的选择。比如加入冷却系统代替自然风冷而加快冷却过程,或者将此冷却工位替换为其他针对特定零件所需要的处理工序。For the part 10 in the No. 2 station at this time, you can use this idle time to cool it. Since the laser deposition process is a stack of molten metal powder, the formed part actually has a very high temperature at the moment the processing is completed. Complex stresses and not fully hardened. Therefore, for relatively large and complex parts, it must be cooled before milling to cool and harden the semi-finished parts to ensure that the internal stress is in a stable state to reduce the processing size error. In addition to the cooling effect, the unique design of this multi-station turntable gives more options to the entire processing process. For example, adding a cooling system to replace natural air cooling to speed up the cooling process, or replacing this cooling station with other processing procedures required for specific parts.

步骤4:图4表示转盘第二次转动,零件10已经送至数控铣床区域的过程示意图。此过程基本类似于图2中过程,金属沉积区升降机构9下降而转盘8转动,此时托盘A已经转至三号工位,位于数控铣床5之下,同时托盘C转移到一号工位。Step 4: FIG. 4 shows a schematic diagram of the process in which the turntable rotates for the second time and the parts 10 have been sent to the area of the CNC milling machine. This process is basically similar to the process in Figure 2. The lifting mechanism 9 in the metal deposition area descends and the turntable 8 rotates. At this time, the pallet A has been transferred to the third station, which is located under the CNC milling machine 5. At the same time, the pallet C is transferred to the first station. .

步骤5:图5表示了零件C的第一部分(此后简称为零件12)开始加工,以及零件10开始进行数控铣削的过程示意图。如图5所示,当转盘8旋转完成之后,零件10移动到数控铣床5下方,托盘B中的零件11开始进行冷却过程。之后,金属沉积区升降机构9以及数控铣床区升降机构13同时上升,连接托盘C以及托盘A。此时托盘C会在激光沉积装置下进行激光沉积操作形成零件12,而托盘A上的零件10则会开始在数控铣床5下进行铣削加工。此时,数控铣削以及激光沉积过程同时进行,改变了传统加工工艺中两过程需要相互等待的限制,大大提高了设备的利用效率。Step 5: FIG. 5 shows a schematic diagram of the process in which the first part of part C (hereinafter referred to as part 12 for short) starts to be machined, and part 10 starts to be CNC milled. As shown in FIG. 5 , after the rotation of the turntable 8 is completed, the parts 10 move under the CNC milling machine 5 , and the parts 11 in the pallet B start to undergo a cooling process. After that, the lifting mechanism 9 in the metal deposition area and the lifting mechanism 13 in the CNC milling machine area rise simultaneously to connect pallet C and pallet A. At this time, tray C will perform laser deposition operation under the laser deposition device to form parts 12 , while parts 10 on tray A will start milling under the CNC milling machine 5 . At this time, the CNC milling and laser deposition processes are carried out at the same time, which changes the limitation that the two processes need to wait for each other in the traditional processing technology, and greatly improves the utilization efficiency of the equipment.

图1至图5集中展示了转盘的转动过程以及其同升降机构、激光沉积装置、数控铣床的配合方式及过程。当图5所示的过程结束之后,金属沉积区升降机构9以及数控铣床区升降机构13同时下降,转盘再次转动,新的零件开始进行铣削以及激光沉积,而当托盘A再次回到1号工位之后,控制系统7输入零件10的第二层结构指令,激光沉积在其第一层结构上进行新的激光沉积过程,由此反复,四个托盘上的零件都将会逐渐被打印、铣削,最后完成出高表面精度、质量优良的产品。Figures 1 to 5 focus on the rotation process of the turntable and its cooperation with the lifting mechanism, laser deposition device, and CNC milling machine. After the process shown in Figure 5 is over, the lifting mechanism 9 in the metal deposition area and the lifting mechanism 13 in the CNC milling machine area descend at the same time, the turntable rotates again, and new parts start to be milled and laser deposited. After positioning, the control system 7 inputs the second-layer structure instruction of the part 10, and the laser deposits on its first-layer structure to perform a new laser deposition process. Repeatedly, the parts on the four trays will be gradually printed and milled , and finally complete a product with high surface precision and excellent quality.

图6显示了本发明上述实施例四工位转盘的结构。此后系统将重复进行上述步骤,在4个转盘之上反复成形4个零件的各个部分,最终得到四个完整的目标零件。Fig. 6 shows the structure of the four-station turntable of the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention. After that, the system will repeat the above steps, repeatedly forming each part of the 4 parts on the 4 turntables, and finally get four complete target parts.

图7显示了本发明另一实施例两工位转盘的结构。Fig. 7 shows the structure of a two-station turntable according to another embodiment of the present invention.

本发明是一种结合了可放置托盘的转盘,基于激光沉积技术,配合数控铣床的一种完整的新型3D打印设备系统。可对目标零件进行3D打印,并且同时对激光沉积制品进行3D结构修正,此设备可达到最大的生产效率。The present invention is a complete new 3D printing equipment system combined with a turntable that can be placed on a tray, based on laser deposition technology, and coordinated with a CNC milling machine. The target part can be 3D printed, and the 3D structure modification of the laser deposited product can be carried out at the same time, and this equipment can achieve the maximum production efficiency.

本发明中的转盘装置作为一种基于零件特点而变化的结构性创新部件,当系统生产结构较为简单、不需要中间过程的零件时,可采用最为简便的只容纳2个托盘的双工位转盘装置,之后可以根据实际需求、将转盘装置替换为可同时容纳4个托盘,6个托盘,或者容量更大、根据实际要求采用特殊结构的转盘装置。The turntable device in the present invention is a structural innovative component that changes based on the characteristics of the parts. When the system produces parts with a relatively simple structure and no intermediate process, the most convenient double-station turntable that only accommodates 2 pallets can be used. According to actual needs, the turntable device can be replaced with a turntable device that can accommodate 4 trays or 6 trays at the same time, or a turntable device with a larger capacity and a special structure according to actual requirements.

托盘会和可上下运动、旋转且顶部可倾斜的升降机构相连接,升降机构将控制承载的托盘进行运动,与激光沉积装置以及数控铣床做相对运动而共同完成零件的加工。The tray will be connected with the lifting mechanism that can move up and down, rotate and the top can be tilted. The lifting mechanism will control the movement of the loaded tray, and make relative movement with the laser deposition device and the CNC milling machine to complete the processing of the parts.

托盘与升降机构的接触面设置防移动、滑动的结构,可以是底部的凹陷以及凸起的结构,此结构可以保证零件在运输过程中位置不会发生滑移。由于本系统的所有零件转移、运动过程,均采用托盘、升降结构等控制,因此具有很高的精度。The contact surface between the tray and the lifting mechanism is provided with anti-movement and sliding structures, which can be concave or convex structures at the bottom, and this structure can ensure that the position of the parts will not slip during transportation. Because all the parts transfer and movement process of this system are controlled by pallets and lifting structures, it has high precision.

本发明会在转盘的四周产生额外的工位,为更复杂的加工过程提供可能性,例如在冷却工位上可以加装针对零件特别工艺要求或者成形过程的设备。甚至可以根据实际的零件需求,设计专属的转盘,使其放置托盘的工位数量以及旋转角度根据实际需要而设定。The present invention will generate additional stations around the turntable, providing the possibility for more complex processing, for example, equipment for special process requirements or forming processes of parts can be installed on the cooling station. It is even possible to design an exclusive turntable according to actual parts requirements, so that the number of stations for placing trays and the rotation angle can be set according to actual needs.

本发明实现了一次性加工多种零件的可能性,在传统工艺中,激光沉积以及数控铣床由于相互牵连,一次只可以加工一个零件。当加工下一个零件时,则需要移除此前的产品,此过程降低了设备的整体利用率。而当采用转盘结构时,一次性最少可以完成两件产品,已经实现了对传统工艺的翻倍,当进一步采用更多工位的转盘时,可加工的零件量快速上升,大大减少了人工的作用比例,提高了产能以及自动化程度,且提高了目标零件的质量。The invention realizes the possibility of processing multiple parts at one time. In the traditional process, laser deposition and CNC milling machine can only process one part at a time due to mutual involvement. When machining the next part, the previous product needs to be removed, which reduces the overall utilization of the equipment. When the turntable structure is used, at least two products can be completed at one time, which has doubled the traditional process. When the turntable with more stations is further used, the amount of parts that can be processed will increase rapidly, greatly reducing the labor cost. The action ratio increases the production capacity and the degree of automation, and improves the quality of the target parts.
