摘要:
A method and system for depositing multiple materials onto a substrate is described. The method broadly comprises the steps of providing a source of a first powder material to be deposited, providing a source of a second powder material to be deposited, and sequentially depositing the first powder material and the second powder material onto the substrate at a velocity sufficient to deposit the materials by plastically deforming the materials without metallurgically transforming the particles of powder forming the materials.
摘要:
An exhaust includes a wall that has a first composite material having a first coefficient of thermal expansion and a second composite material having a second coefficient of the thermal expansion that is less than the first coefficient of thermal expansion.
摘要:
A nozzle for use in a cold spray technique is described. The nozzle has a passageway for spraying a powder material, the passageway having a converging section and a diverging section, and at least the diverging section being formed from polybenzimidazole. In one embodiment of the nozzle, the converging section is also formed from polybenzimidazole.
摘要:
An additive manufacturing assembly includes a work space including a plurality of separate regions and an energy transmitting device for focusing an energy beam to a specific location within one of the plurality of regions within the work space. The energy transmitting device includes features for expanding the workspace for fabricating parts of increased size and volume.
摘要:
An additive manufacturing process includes the steps of measuring a parameter of a part supported within a workspace after a heat treat or other stress relieving process. The measured parameter being a part characteristic that is desired to be within a desired range prior to proceeding with an additional fabrication process. The process further includes the step of applying at least one additional layer on the part based on the measured parameter to adjust the measured parameter to within the desired range.
摘要:
A process for forming an article, such as a combustion chamber liner, comprises the steps of providing a mandrel formed from a material, such as an aluminum containing material, having a net shape of the article to be made, depositing a powdered metal material onto the mandrel without melting the powdered metal material, and removing the material forming the mandrel to leave a free standing monolithic article. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the powdered metal material comprises powdered GRCop-84. Alternatively, the powdered metal material may be GRCop-42.
摘要:
Methods are described for applying braze filler material onto a component part interface having a uniform thickness regardless of the interface contour using cold spray deposition technology.
