The following results can be drawn fromthe experiments: only 1 percent shrinkage happened in the stack direction and it came from theregular system error. The atoms diffuse between joint interfaces clearly and new grains formedmeanwhile. The average shear strength of welding zone is more than 100 MPa and micro hardness ofwelding zone is almost the same as that of matrix. It is shown from above results that the vacuumsolid-state pressure diffusion welding process is an available technique to join metal slice sheetsfor the rapid manufacturing of metallic functional parts.展开更多
