Optimization of selective laser sintering process parameter for Fe-Ni-Cr coating fabrication
Fe-Ni-Cr 코팅층 형성을 위한 SLS 공정변수의 최적화
Abstract
Selective laser sintering(SLS), a kind of rapid prototyping technology, can provide a process to form many types of coatings. Coated layers by selective laser melting are highly influenced by substrate, powder and laser parameters such as laser power, scan rate, fill spacing and layer thickness. Therefore an attempt to fabricate Fe-Ni-Cr coating on AISI H13 tool steel has been performed by selective laser sintering. In this study, Fe-Ni-Cr coating was produced by experimental facilities consisting of a 200W fiber laser which can be focused to 0.08mm and atmospheric chamber which can control atmospheric pressure with Ar. With power increase or energy density decrease, line width was decreased and line surface quality was improved with energy density increase. Surface quality of coating layer was improved with fill spacing optimization or layer thickness decrease.
