Plastic forming simulations of cold isostatic pressing of selective laser sintered components

A combined method of selective laser sintering （SLS） and cold isostatic pressing （CIP） was applied to manufacturing metal parts rapidly. Finite element method was used to predict final dimensions and decrease cost. The simulations of CIP of selective laser sintered parts were carried out by Drucker-Prager-Cap constitutive model with ABAQUS computer program. The property of metal powder was measured by CIP experiments. The results show the rubber bag and the friction coefficient have little influence on results of simulations. The parts only have uniform shrinkage and have no obvious distortion in shape. The results of simulations show a good agreement with the experimental results and the calculated results, indicating that the Drucker-Prager-Cap model is an effective model to simulate CIP process. The simulations could give a useful direction to forming process of the CIP of selective laser sintered components. K

不锈钢粉末冷等静压数值模拟与实验验证

通过冷等静压实验获得了不锈钢粉末的压力-密度关系,在模拟中用于表征材料的硬化特性。为了描述粉末的致密化行为,使用了ABAQUS有限元软件中的Cam-Clay模型,对粉末的冷等静压实验过程进行模拟,结果表明实验的尺寸与模拟的结果符合得较好,说明模拟中使用的参数设置是合理的。然后使用选择性激光烧结/冷等静压复合工艺制造球形制件,并对冷等静压过程进行模拟,结果表明制件变形比较均匀,实验的结果与模拟的结果符合得较好,密度的预测与实验结果比较吻合。通过模拟不仅为冷等静压工艺提供有益的指导,也为以后复杂试样的冷等静压尺寸设计提供了重要参考。

两相质量比对粉末冶金双相不锈钢显微组织与力学性能的影响

将316L奥氏体不锈钢粉末与430铁素体不锈钢粉末分别按照80:20、65:35、50:50质量比混合,采用冷等静压成型方法制备了双相不锈钢,研究了奥氏体和铁素体起始粉末质量比对双相不锈钢组织结构和力学性能的影响。结果表明:当奥氏体和铁素体起始粉末质量比为65:35,烧结温度1350℃,保温时间60 min时,双相不锈钢综合力学性能较好,其中,抗拉强度为847 MPa,屈服强度为281 MPa,硬度为HV 207,断后伸长率为37.5%。
