  • Patent number: 11364570
    Abstract: A micro-region semi-solid additive manufacturing method is provided, where rod-shaped materials are used as consumables, and front ends of the consumables are heated by means of high-energy beam, an electric arc, a resistance heat, or the like, to enable the front ends to be in a semi-solid state in which the solid-liquid two phases coexist; at the same time, the rotational torsion and the axial thrust are applied to the consumables to perform shearing, agitation and extrusion on the semi-solid front ends, that is, the mold-free semi-solid rheoforming is performed. The consumable is transmitted to the bottom layer metal continuously in this manner to form metallurgical bonding, the stacking process is repeated according to a planned route obtained after discretization slicing treatment, and then an object or a stack layer in a special shape can be formed.

  • Publication number: 20200147726
    Abstract: Disclosed is a micro-region semi-solid additive manufacturing method, where rod-shaped materials are used as consumables, and heating modes such as a high-energy beam, an electric arc, a resistance heat, or the like are applied to the front end of the consumables to enable the front end to be in a semi-solid state in which the solid-liquid two phases coexist; at the same time, the rotational torsion and the axial thrust applied on the consumables have powerful effects such as shearing, agitation and extrusion, that is, the mold-free semi-solid rheoforming is performed. The consumable is transmitted to the bottom layer metal continuously in this manner to form metallurgical bonding, the stacking process is repeated according to a planned route obtained after discretization slicing treatment, and then an object or a stack layer in a special shape can be formed.
