Titanium Alloy Repair with Wire-Feed Electron Beam Additive Manufacturing Technology

Abstract: Wire feeding can be combined with different heat sources, for example, arc, laser, and electron beam, to enable additive manufacturing and repair of metallic materials. In the case of titanium alloys, the vacuum operational environment of electron beam systems prevents atmospheric contamination during high-temperature processing and ensures high performance and reliability of additively manufactured or repaired components. In the present work, the feasibility of developing a repair process that emulates refurb… Show more

“…Since aluminum is the element in Ti-6Al-4V with the highest saturated vapor pressure, it can be expected that it has a significant tendency to evaporation and vaporization loss during processing. The evaporation of aluminum by processing Ti-6Al-4V with different AM processes has already been reported in the literature (i.e., EBF 3 [4,52], E-PBF [53,54], or L-PBF [55]). Unlike L-PBF, the excessive aluminum loss was reported for vacuum based processes E-PBF (up to 30%) and EBF 3 (up to 39%) by Juechter et al [54] and Xu et al, respectively [4].…”

“…Partial melting of the substrate by the electron beam is required to form the desirable liquid metal bridge material transfer mode between substrate and wire [70,71]. Tang et al [13] investigated the heat transfer in EBF 3 and simulated fluid flow of the weld pool by a 3D transient model. In EBF 3 the high temperature region is restricted to the area of a direct electron beam exposure, showing a steep temperature gradient to its surrounding.…”
