TY - CONF A1 - Madia, Mauro T1 - Towards the Use of Representative Specimens for the Qualification of Additively Manufactured Parts N2 - The understanding of the process-structure-property-performance relationship is the key challenge for the qualification of safety-relevant parts made of additively manufactured metallic materials. The complexity of the manufacturing process and the number of influencing parameters affect the properties of test coupons and parts even fabricated in the same batch. This poses the problem of using reliable witness specimens for part qualification. This work presents a new approach which aims at the fabrication of test coupons tailored to the specific microstructure and fatigue properties of a component. The first step consisted in the evaluation of the temperature field by means of process monitoring during the production of parts. The results were used to tailor finite element models which were then used to design witness specimens representative of the thermal history in the component. Finally, the fatigue properties of designed specimens were compared to coupons machined out of the component.

As the resulting phase balance also affects the final properties, it may be beneficial to both foresee and measure the weld metal ferrite content. The WRC ‘92 constitution diagram is currently the most accurate prediction tool available, but it does not take the cooling rate into consideration and the precision may be less accurate for stainless steels with high ferrite numbers (FNs). This study aims to assess the reliability of the WRC ‘92 diagram for weld metals with FN  50. The chemical composition was altered through gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) of UNS S32205 with ER347 filler wire that had been coated using physical vapor deposition (PVD) with either niobium (Nb), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), manganese (Mn), carbon (C), or silicon (Si). The actual ferrite content was evaluated using image analysis, FeriteScope and X-ray diffraction (XRD). While predictions from the WRC ‘92 diagram were deemed acceptable for Ni, Si, and Mn, notable deviations were observed for Nb, Cu, and C. The FeriteScope exhibited a consistent trend with image analysis, albeit with slightly higher FN values, wider scatter, and the conversion factor from FN to vol% is open for discussion. The lowest accuracy and largest spread were obtained using non-contact XRD, rendering it unsuitable for ferrite measurements of welds. These findings underscore the need for improved prediction tools and appropriate measurement methods for assessing ferrite content in duplex weld metals.

Wear-resistant coatings are required for highly efficient and economical steel components in plant, process and power plant engineering to withstand the high corrosive, tribological, thermal and mechanical stresses. Co alloys are utilized as wear protection coatings for steel components that are customized to the specific application. The research area of interest is the substitutability of Co alloys with Ni-based wear protection systems. This research endeavour considers the price and supply uncertainties as well as the escalating demands on corrosive load-bearing capacity at elevated temperatures. The wear-resistant alloys NiMoCrSi (Colmonoy C56) and CoMnCrSi (Tribaloy T400) have been modified through various alloying additions and subsequently applied to a carbon-manganese steel S355 using the Plasma Arc Transferred Arc (PTA) welding process. The influence of the alloying additions on the microstructure as well as on the formation of the hard phases of the build-up welds is compared. The inclusion of the alloying element Nb, for instance, results in the formation of a more refined hard phase and reduces the machining force required for the C56 and T400. The incorporation of Al results in an enhancement of the cutting forces for the C56, as the hard phases exhibit more needle-like structures. Al reduces the cutting forces of the T400. The wear potential of the modified build-up welds of the C56 and T400 is also being examined In the industrial sector, there is a growing demand for functional surfaces of superior quality. Therefore, it is imperative to ensure the machinability of the wear protection layers to achieve clearly defined contours. The machinability of the build-up welds is investigated using ultrasonic milling. The optimization of the demanding machining conditions through alloy modifications of the Co- and Ni-based alloys without impairing the wear protection potential and using the ultrasonic-assisted milling process is a joint project of BAM and ISAF at Clausthal University of Technology (Fosta P1550/IGF 21959 N).

AM offers economic advantages and enables an efficient use of materials. However, AM components often require subsequent mechanical post-processing, such as machining (e.g. milling), to achieve the final contours or surfaces. This is a particular challenge due to the heterogeneous and anisotropic nature of AM structures, which affect machining and the resulting component properties. High-performance materials such as iron aluminide represent a promising alternative to conventional high-temperature materials with a significant economic advantage. However, the strength and hardness properties, which are advantageous for applications in highly stressed lightweight components, pose a challenge for economical machining in addition to the AM microstructure properties. The difficult-to-cut material causes accelerated tool wear and insufficient surface quality. This study shows that crack-free additive manufacturing of the three-component system of iron-nickel-aluminum is possible and advantages in terms of machinability compared to FeAl-AM components are achieved. The more homogeneous microstructure leads to a reduction in cutting forces, with positive effects on the machinability and optimized surface integrity. Ultrasonic assisted milling (USAM) offers great potential to address the major challenges posed by difficult-to-cut materials and additively manufactured weld structures. Therefore, this study focuses on assessing the transferability of previous positive results by USAM to the selected iron aluminide alloys. The machinability of the aluminides is analyzed by varying significant influencing variables in finish milling experiments and evaluated in terms of the loads on the tool and the resulting surface integrity.

To withstand the high combined corrosive, tribological, thermal, and mechanical stresses, wear-resistant coatings tailored to the application and steel grade are used. In addition to the increasing demand to substitute conventional cobalt alloys with nickel alloys, there is also a growing need for defined or functional surfaces of high integrity. Due to high tool wear, milling operations required to produce the complex geometries of the components are often not economically feasible for SMEs. By means of alloy modification of the filler metals for nickel-based plasma build-up welded wear-resistant coatings and by the use of innovative ultrasonic-assisted milling processes more favourable machinability shall be achieved without reducing the wear protection potential. In this paper, the influence of the microstructure and precipitation morphology adjusted by means of alloy modification on the machinability is investigated. This is done based on a wear protection alloy NiCrMoSiFeB (trade name: Colmonoy 56 PTA) typically used for screw machines, which substitutes conventional CoCr alloys (Stellite). Metallurgical investigations and in-situ measurements of occurring process forces and temperatures at the tool cutting edge during milling as well as subsequent investigations of tool wear and surface integrity allow a detailed analysis and correlation between microstructural properties and machinability. For the cast samples, a clear change in the microstructure and hardness can be seen through the addition of Al, Ti, or Nb. These differences lead to an improvement in the machining process for Nb. Al and Ti cause long-needled or star-shaped precipitations and hardness increases, which lead to higher cutting forces and increased tool wear.

As this necessitates a reliable transport infrastructure, repurposing of the existing natural gas grid is planned. With regards to the well-known effect of hydrogen embrittlement, the compatibility of utilized materials must be investigated. First comprehensive studies on pipeline material hydrogen compatibility indicate that these materials can be applied to a certain extent. Nonetheless, the material compatibility is currently of high interest and focus of numerous research projects worldwide. However, pipelines require frequent maintenance and repair work. As part of these, in some cases it is necessary to do weldments onto pipelines while they are pressurized. This in-service welding introduces additional challenges for the material compatibility. Due to the resulting high temperatures, the metallurgical changes in the material and of course the presence of high-pressure hydrogen in the pipeline, additional investigations need to be conducted to ensure that no critical material degradation because of increased hydrogen absorption occurs and an overall material compatibility is given. For this reason, the present paper introduces in-service welding on pipelines. An overview of current research projects that deal with the application of in-service welding specifically on hydrogen pipelines and the emerging problems when applying these techniques on hydrogen pipelines is given. Methods of material testing, their limits and possible solutions are presented and discussed.

In addition to increasing demands to replace conventional cobalt alloys with nickel alloys due to the price and supply risk, there is a growing demand in the industry for defined surfaces of high quality or functional surfaces for the protective coatings. Milling required for components with complex geometries is often not economically feasible, especially for SMEs, due to high tool wear, but is urgently required for many applications. A joint project between BAM and ISAF at Clausthal University of Technology (Fosta P1550/IGF 21959 N) is therefore investigating how more favorable machinability can be achieved by means of alloy modifications to the filler metals for nickel-based plasma deposition-welded wear protection coatings and by using innovative ultrasound-assisted milling processes, without reducing the wear protection potential. This article examines the influence of the microstructure and precipitation morphology set by means of alloy modification on machining. This is carried out using wear resistant cladding typically used for screw machines to replace corresponding CoCr alloys (Stellite), a NiCrMoSiFeB alloy (trade name: Colmonoy 56 PTA). A detailed analysis and correlation between the microstructural properties and the machinability is possible through metallurgical investigations and in-situ measurement of process forces and temperatures occurring at the tool cutting edge during the milling process as well as the subsequent investigation of tool wear and surface integrity. The changes in the microstructure achieved by adding small amounts of modifying elements (< 1 m%) lead to significant differences in machinability. The cutting forces and the resulting tool wear are thus positively influenced, whereby longer tool life and higher surface integrities can be achieved. The knowledge gained allows for instructions and recommendations for standards and processing guidelines, which should enable the safe and economical production of highly stressed steel components with non-critical, cost-reduced materials, especially for SMEs.

In a joint project of BAM and Chemnitz University of Technology, the main influences and complex interactions of material, production process, design and processing steps on the residual stress level are investigated. The aim is to develop processing recommendations and a cold cracking test for economical processing and stress-related design of high-strength steels with DED-arc. The project focused on hardness and microstructure analysis as well as residual stress analysis using X-ray diffraction on the surface and neutron diffraction in the bulk. Reference specimens (open hollow cuboids) were fully automatic manufactured using a robot welding system. Systematic variation of the heat control and design was used to analyze the influences on heat input and interpass temperature, as well as geometric influences such as component length, height, and wall thickness. Figure 1 shows that the residual stresses in the WAAM specimens within the project are predominantly one-dimensional in welding direction (cf. [3]). Furthermore, the results reveal that the residual stresses are significantly influenced by the heat input. Low heat input and high cooling rates lead to high average residual stresses. The analysis of the variation of the component design indicates that the component height, in contrast to component length and wall thickness, significantly influences the level of residual stresses.

Subsequent enhancement in efficiency can be achieved through the utilization of the high-strength structural steels. The fabrication of the intricate geometries possesses challenges in regulating the residual stresses (RS), representing a significant concern in the realm of additive manufacturing (AM). High residual stresses contribute to an increased risk of cold cracking particularly in the welding of the high strength steels arising from complex interactions among the material, process conditions and component design. Reliable residual stress evaluation is vital in the structural integrity assessment of the welded components. Therefore, in the present study, the contour method was used to analyse the full field longitudinal residual stresses in an open hollow cuboid specimen fabricated by DED-arc. In this method, the specimen is cut along a desired plane of interest and the deformation caused by the cut surface is measured using the coordinate measuring machine and an industrial non-contact 3D scanner. A different cutting and restraint methodology was adopted and its influence on the residual stresses was analysed. The results indicate that the maximum tensile residual stresses around 600 MPa occurred in the left wall of the DED-arc structure exactly two layers below from the top. Additionally, the stresses at the bottom layer of the base plate demonstrate tensile in longitudinal direction and the corresponding balancing compressive residual stresses occurred at the top layer of the base plate. The contour approach is efficient and precise way for generating a two-dimensional residual stress map. The results obtained from the contour method was further validated using the X-ray Diffraction and both sets of findings demonstrated similarity.

The desired properties of wear resistant alloys imply significant challenges for the milling process due to high tool wear and surface defects.

These characteristics are determined by four core effects: sluggish diffusion, severe lattice distortion, high-entropy and cocktail effect. The development of MPEAs is a promising approach to extend the range of applications of conventional alloys by exploiting these core effects. In the present study, as reference to the conventional high-manganese steel X120Mn12 (ASTM A128), characterized by particularly high work hardening capacity generating exceptional mechanical properties, work-hardening MPEAs based on the equimolar composition CoFeNi in combination with Mn and C were developed. Specimens were produced as bulk material by melting via an electric arc furnace. In a second step the specimens undergo a surface finishing via milling process. Therefore, a hybrid milling process was used which, in addition to producing defined surfaces, also has the potential to reduce tool wear and increase surface integrity by introducing compressive stresses and increasing hardness through pronounced work hardening in comparison to conventional machining. The so-called ultrasonic-assisted milling (USAM) is characterized by an axial oscillation of the tool during the milling process. The machining parameters were varied to analyze the effect on work hardening together with process forces during milling and resulting surface integrity. Subsequently, microstructure evolution, hardness as well as resulting wear resisting capacity were investigated and correlated with the composition and the USAM parameters. For the MPEA CoFeNi-Mn12C1.2 a pronounced lattice strain and grain refinement due to the plastic deformation during the USAM was recorded, especially at high USAM amplitude and lower cutting speed due to the greater number of tool oscillations per cutting engagement. Consequently, a hardness increase of up to 380 HV0.025 was induced for the aforementioned MPEA exhibiting a higher wear resistance compared to the X120Mn12. This shows the promising approach for the development of work-hardening materials based on new alloy concepts such as MPEAs allowing also coatings required for applications in tribological systems. As conventional hard and wear-resistant coatings are challenging in machining due to massive tool wear this approach of functional coating materials with high hardening capacity during USAM have the potential to reduce tool wear and ensure a adequate surface integrity and wear resistance.

The integration of additive manufacturing steps into existing production routes opens up significant economic and technical potential. However, systematic investigations focusing on the critical transition area between the specific properties of the substrate (like high-strength) and the additively manufactured component, made of specific filler material, are still lacking. Residual stresses heighten the risk of cold cracking, excessive distortion and a reduction in yield stress. This is particularly evident in sensitive transition areas, resulting from a complex interaction among the material used, process conditions, and component design.

This article presents the results of investigations into the relationships between different alloy modifications (Ti, Al, Nb Mo and Hf with wX ≤ 0.01), the resulting microstructure and precipitation morphology, the machinability and the wear protection properties using a NiCrMoSiFeB alloy (trade name: Colmonoy 56 PTA). Tests using cast samples have already shown that the addition of Nb leads to a finer distribution of the hard phases and that this results in a reduction in cutting forces and tool wear during ultrasonic-assisted milling. The change in the microstructure morphology through the addition of Al, on the other hand, causes a significant increase in the cutting forces that occur.

T1 - Effect of deposition strategies on mechanical properties and residual stresses at the transition zone of component and substrate in hybrid DED-arc manufacturing N2 - In hybrid additive manufacturing, components or semi-finished products manufactured by conventional primary forming are enhanced or modified by additive manufactured structures. The integration of additive manufacturing steps into existing production routes opens up significant economic and technical potential. However, systematic investigations focusing on the critical transition area between the specific properties of the substrate (like high-strength) and the additively manufactured component, made of specific filler material, are still lacking. Residual stresses heighten the risk of cold cracking, excessive distortion and a reduction in yield stress. This is particularly evident in sensitive transition areas, resulting from a complex interaction among the material used, process conditions, and component design. This risk can be minimized by an optimized layer structure in combination with suitable process parameters. The focus of the present study was to determine the influence of deposition strategy on the Δt8/5 cooling time, the mechanical properties and the residual stresses in order to establish a correlation between heat control, cooling conditions and residual stresses in the transition area of hybrid-additive components. This contributed to the knowledge regarding the safe avoidance of cold cracking, excessive distortion and a reduction in yield stress and the implementation of hybrid DED-arc manufacturing. The heat control was varied by means of the build-up strategy, heat input and working temperature such that the Δt8/5 cooling times corresponded to the recommended processing range. For the deposition strategy, significant effects were exhibited, in particular on the local residual stresses in the transition area. The working temperature showed a higher influence on cooling time, displacement and residual stresses than the heat input. A low working temperature of 100 °C produces almost twice as much deformation of the substrate plate in the tests compared to manufacturing at a high working temperature of 300 °C. Furthermore, compressive longitudinal residual stresses in the sensitive transition area are reduced from 500 MPa to approx. 100 MPa by adjusting the working temperature from 100 °C to 300 °C. Such complex interactions must be clarified comprehensively to provide users with easily applicable processing recommendations and standard specifications for an economical hybrid additive manufacturing of components, for example made of high-strength steels in the transition area.

Wear-resistant coatings are required for highly efficient and economical steel components in energy, process and power plant engineering in order to withstand the high corrosive, tribological, thermal and mechanical loads. Considering price and supply risks as well as the increasing demands on corrosive resistance at high temperatures, conventional cobalt alloys are to be replaced by nickel alloys. In addition, there is a growing demand for defined surfaces of high quality or functional surfaces of these protective coatings. The milling required for this is often not economically feasible, especially for SMEs, due to high tool wear.
