Abstract
This paper studies the temperature field, dynamic strain and forming accuracy of the Oscillate-WAAM conical shell in the forming process and manufactures the WAAM conical shell part. The results show that compared with the offset filling WAAM, the oscillate-WAAM conical shell shows the following characteristics:the temperature difference value between the inner and outer walls of the shell is significantly reduced, the cooling rate doubled decreased, the interlayer temperature is above 300°C, as well as the average temperature gradient, the dynamic strain stability value and deformation are reduced by about 50%. Under the same process parameters, the travel speed of Oscillate-WAAM is low, which increased the heat input large and the interlayer temperature high. Meanwhile, the molten pool of Oscillate-WAAM is in consistent with the width of the shell. The molten pool simultaneous solidifying changes the stress state of printed shell form three-dimensional to two-dimensional. All above are conductive to stress release, and reduce the strain and deformation of components. The bimetallic rocket motor shell composed of HS600 and HS950 is manufactured by oscillate-WAAM. The section roundness of the shell is 0.31mm and the overall forming accuracy is ±0.625mm. The deposited metal in HS600 part of conical shell is composed of pearlite and pro-eutectoid ferrite. While the deposited metal of HS950 is composed of pearlite, acicular ferrite and bainite. The forming accuracy and mechanical properties of conical shell formed by Oscillate-WAAM meet the requirements.
