Bonding behavior of Bi-metal-deposits produced by hybrid cold spray additive manufacturing
2022
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…
Process Modeling and Planning for Robotic Cold Spray Based Additive Manufacturing
2020
Cold spray (CS) is a solid-state coating deposition technology that has recently been applied as an additive manufacturing (AM) process to fabricate individual components. This potential AM process is attracting more and more attention because of its advantages: high-forming efficiency, low temperature, and no phase changing of materials. These advantages make CS able to form large-volume objects to become an efficient and effective AM process. Nowadays, new advances in cold spray additive manufacturing (CSAM) call for new process implementation to improve the manufacturing accuracy and flexibility. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to enhance CS-based AM through the modeling and plan…
Manufacturing and characterization of Al matrix composites with nano reinforcements via cold spraying
2019
This study aims at developing new routes for manufacturing Al matrix composites (AMCs) strengthened with nano reinforcements by solid-state cold spraying (CS) process. Three different AMCs including CNTs/Al, TiB2/AlSi10Mg and TiB2/7075Al were successfully fabricated by CS of the composite powders prepared using different approaches. The microstructure evolution of as-sprayed composite samples was investigated by means of different characterization methods like X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and electron backscatter diffraction (SEM/EBSD). The adhesion strength, tribological behaviour, corrosion properties as well as the mechanical performa…
