Numerical Simulation for Sn63Pb37 Fused Coating Additive Manufacturing and Effect of Scanning Strategy on Mechanical Properties
A new process of fused coating additive manufacturing is proposed to solve the problems of high requirements for printed materials
high cost and low manufacturing efficiency in the traditional additive manufacturing. Considering low melting point alloys Sn63Pb37 as the experimental material
the temperature field and flow field of coating are numerically investigated. The effects of two main parameters
substrate velocity and distance from the substrate to coating head
on the width and height of coating parts are also discussed. The obtained size of the coating parts is compared with that of the experimental one. The experimental specimens are prepared for tensile testing to evaluate their tensile strength parallel and perpendicular to the scanning path
respectively. The deviations of the height and the width of the coating parts between numerical simulation and experiment get 6.45% and 6.51% respectively. With the increase in velocity of the substrate
the heights and widths from simulation and experiment decrease. With the increase in initial distance H
the heights and widths increase rapidly
and the increasing rate tends stable as H>1.2 mm. The tensile strength of the coating parts parallel and perpendicular to the scanning path gets higher than the tensile strength of the raw materials
especially in the direction parallel to the scan path
it reaches the maximum 46.63 MPa
and 30.49% higher than that of casting. The dimples are denser and deeper in the direction parallel to the scanning path than in perpendicular direction
thus the tensile strength in the direction parallel to the scan path is superior to that in perpendicular direction.
