This study provides insights into the properties of 316L stainless steel produced by additive manufacturing using fused filament fabrication (FFF). One key finding is particularly noteworthy: in significant contrast to cold-rolled 316L, FFF316L develops a pronounced martensite phase after fabrication. The comprehensive comparative analysis shows that FFF316L not only retains the ferrite volume content, but that this is also significantly influenced by the build-up direction. Despite the sintering process, which typically involves densification of the material, a pore volume fraction of 8.45 % remains, which influences the mechanical properties. Although FFF316L has lower elastic
modulus and tensile strength values compared to cold-rolled 316L, its ductility is still competitive. The study further reveals that deformation-induced martensite forms at the intersections of the deformation twins and ferrite islands form at the grain boundaries during the compression and sintering phases. These findings highlight the challenges associated with FFF316L in specific application fields and signal the need to continue to carefully evaluate and improve the development of manufacturing technologies.
Wear behavior of innovative niobium carbide cutting tools in ultrasonic-assisted finishing milling
(2023)
The resources of niobium exceed the ones of tungsten by an order of magnitude. With 92%, Brazil is today the main global producer of niobium. Hence, niobium carbides (NbC) are a sustainable and economic alternative to conventionally used cutting materials, especially tungsten carbides (WC). Moreover, NbC can be used in Ni alloy matrix and thus offer significant advantages by substituting WC in Co matrix as cutting materials in terms of health risks and raw material price and supply risk. Based on recent studies which found an increased performance of NbC compared to WC cutting tools in machining higher strength steels, the composition NbC12Ni4Mo4VC was chosen for finish machining of a high-strength steel S960QL in this study. The experiments were carried out on an ultrasonic-assisted 5-axis milling machine using NbC tools specially made to benchmark them with commercially available coated WC cutting inserts. In addition, the influence of a coating system for the NbC inserts is tested and evaluated for its performance in the cutting process. Tool wear and cutting force analyses are implied to identify optimal parameter combinations as well as tool properties for the novel NbC tool. Together with the oscillation of ultrasonic-assisted milling, the loads on the component surface and the tool can be reduced and the wear behavior of the novel NbC tool can be refined. These milling tests are accompanied by standardized wear tests, i.e., pin-on-disc, between the aforementioned material combinations, and the results are correlated with each other. Finally, the behavior when using hard-to-cut materials such as Ni alloys, or innovative materials such as iron aluminide is also being tested, as these are constantly in the focus of machining optimization. With this strategy, comprehensive knowledge is achievable for future efficient application of NbC for milling tools, which have already been researched for decades using WC.
Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies are becoming increasingly important, not only for the manufacture of parts, but also as repair technology that complement existing production technologies. Powder bed fusion of metals by laser beam (PBF-LB/M) combines the freedom in design with high achievable accuracy, making it ideal as a repair approach. However, there are still challenges in adapting process for repair applications. When mounting parts inside PBF-LB/M machines, their real position within the build volume is unknown. One goal of a repair process is to minimize the offset between the base component and the additively manufactured structure to reduce additional rework. For a minimum offset between component and additively manufactured structure, the actual position of the component has to be identified with high precision within the machine coordinate system (MCS). In this work a process setup is presented that allows the actual position of a gas turbine blade to be detected inside a PBF-LB/M machine. A high resolution camera with 65 megapixel is used for this purpose. The presented setup is implemented on a SLM 280 HL PBF-LB/M machine. In addition to the setup, a novel repair workflow using PBF-LB/M is presented. The developed setup and workflow consider inaccuracies in the component and camera mounting, as well as process inaccuracies. This includes keystone distortion correction by homography. The machine setup and workflow are used to repair a real gas turbine blade. Subsequently the offset between the turbine blade and the additivley manufactured structure is validated by 3D scanning the repaired part. The maximum offset is 160 µm. The presented approach can be extended to other geometries and PBF-LB/M machine manufacturers. The high-resolution camera approach is platform independent, which facilates the market penetration of PBF-LB/M repair processes.
The main solidification parameters, namely the crystal axis, the growth rate, and the cross-sectional area of the columnar crystal control the primary microstructure and thus the final weld seam properties.
Limited understanding of solidification parameters due to complexities in experimental and theoretical weld pool boundary determination and
its mathematical description.
Application of local Lamé curves for efficient weld pool boundary reconstruction Derivation of general analytical solutions for the main solidification parameters of a two-dimensional columnar crystal growth during laser beam welding of thin steel sheets.
The Lamé curves approximation technique was successfully applied for the reconstruction of the rear part of the two-dimensional steady-state weld pool boundary. General analytical expressions for the main solidification parameters, namely the crystal axis, the growth rate and the cross-sectional area of the crystal were derived.
The derived expressions and herewith obtained results were verified and validated by comparing them to known theoretical solutions and experimental measurements. Dimensionless analysis of the influence of the size and shape of the rear weld pool boundary on the solidification parameters was provided.
The derived general solutions and the analysis provided allow for critical welding parameters to be estimated and adapted accordingly to improve the welding process.
The poster starts by presenting the current limitations of the methods used to assess hydrogen effects on materials. Next, an alternative technique called the Hollow Specimen Technique is presented, which aims to overcome the limitations of the current standardised techniques, followed by its advantages. Finally, the H2HohlZug project, its work packages and objectives are presented.
In dem Poster werden der Forschungsansatz, die Ziele, das Untersuchungsprogramm und die erwarteten Ergebnisse des BMUV-Forschungsvorhabens MCGUSS "Untersuchung des Master Curve-Konzeptes für ferritisches Gusseisen mit Kugelgraphit" vorgestellt. Mit Blick auf bruchmechanische Sicherheitsbewertungen in der Kerntechnik werden Stähle momentan mit dem deterministischen ASME-Referenzkurvenkonzept, ergänzt durch das probabilistische Master Curve-Konzept nach ASTM E1921, bewertet. Das Master Curve-Konzept wird bereits für die Bewertung von ferritischen Schmiedestahlbehältern verwendet.
Bewertungsmethoden für ferritisches Gusseisen mit Kugelgraphit sind im Moment
unvollständig. Normen wie die nationale BDG-Richtlinie P300 oder der internationale ASME-Code, Sect. III, Div. 3, WC-2330 decken Sprödbruch nicht ausreichend ab. Die Verwendung des Master Curve-Konzepts für ferritisches Gusseisen mit Kugelgraphit würde eine bruchmechanische Bewertung via einer KJc,d Verteilung erlauben und gleichzeitig Größeneffekte und einen Temperaturbereich von 100 K berücksichtigen.
The long-term global goals of achieving almost net zero carbon emissions in the next decades are closely linked to the development of highly efficient components in plant, process and energy engineering, and their sustainable and resource-saving production. Plant components must increasingly withstand tribological loads in addition to high thermal, mechanical, and corrosive stresses. Such combined stresses demand high-performance alloys economically tailored to the application for wear protection and components produced as semi-finished products, via additive manufacturing (AM) or claddings via deposition welding. For instance, the protection of special components made of less cost-intensive materials, e.g., steel in process engineering for screw machines or exhaust gas separation, is feasible applying cost-intensive Ni- or Co-based hard-phase claddings.
Today an increasing number of above-mentioned applications demand precise finishing machining of components to ensure defined compact surfaces with a high integrity and complex contours. Contour milling is standard process for finishing machining of metals. Especially, the desired properties of wear resistant materials (e.g., high strength, hard precipitations) imply significant challenges for milling processes and tools, leading frequently to uneconomic milling conditions due to intolerable high tool wear and surface defects. Inhomogeneous, anisotropic weld structures due to cladding or AM of wear resistance alloys lead to further deteriorations of milling processes due to unstable milling conditions and process forces during chip removal.
To tackle these challenges, already several approaches exist, (1) to enhance machinability of the claddings by alloy modifications to specifically influence solidification and hard phases morphology (precipitation shape, size, distribution) and (2) to achieve significant improvements of the machining situation (e.g., increase of tool life and surfaces integrity) by means of modern hybrid machining processes such as ultrasonic-assisted milling. This contribution shows a comprehensive overview of recent results with these promising approaches for additively welded Ni- CoCr-alloys.
