Bonding behavior of Bi-metal-deposits produced by hybrid cold spray additive manufacturing

Abstract Cold spraying (CS) is one of the most recently used additive manufacturing (AM) processes that allow forming large 3D objects efficiently without severe thermal effects. However, due to some limitations of the CSAM process, it is difficult to achieve the desired geometry with high precision. As a potential solution to this issue, CSAM process coupled machining, that is, hybrid addition and subtraction manufacturing, is proposed to achieve desired accuracy and reliable shape. Therefore, it is necessary to assess the mechanical reliability of multilayer deposits deposited by CSAM + machining processes before that. In this work, different bi-deposits were obtained via hybrid CSAM. The…

Influence of spray trajectories on characteristics of cold-sprayed copper deposits

Abstract Industrial robots are widely used in cold spray (CS) as well as thermal spray to produce various coatings by precisely controlling kinematic parameters during the process. However, the robot trajectory and its effect on the characteristics of CS deposits are important, but not fully studied. This article introduces four typical spray trajectories, including zigzag path, cross path, parallel path, and spiral path, to elaborate thick CS Cu deposits, and characterizes the corresponding Cu deposits, respectively. The experimental results revealed that the spray trajectories have a major influence on the associated thermal history and the residual stress distribution. However, no signif…
