Heat treatment to anneal residual stresses during additive manufacturing
Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method of producing a product through additive manufacturing with heat treatment. The method involves using a fusing beam to melt powder particles disposed on a substrate, where the fusing beam is impressed with a two dimensional pattern containing image information from a first layer to be printed. The fused powder particles are then heat treated with a beam impressed with an additional two dimensional pattern. The additional two dimensional pattern has image information from the first layer to achieve heat treatment of the product. The heat treatment is completed prior to laying down additional new layers of material. The heat treatment is an annealing operation. The method may further involve providing a new layer of powdered material on top of the layer of fused powder particles subsequent to the heat treatment, and repeating the melting and heat treating operations in a layer-by-layer fashion using the two dimensional pattern and the additional two dimensional pattern, until the part is completed.
