Disk Laser Assisted Surface Heat Treatments Of AlSi10Mg Parts Produced By Selective Laser Melting (SLM)
2019
Abstract Metal parts produced with the Selective Laser Melting (SLM) method have a great variety of uses today and because of this the requirements on the surface quality differ between applications. The surface treatments of the printed metal pieces, like other finishing phases, are often still manually worked on and thus are very time-consuming processes. This study focuses on the SLM printed AlSi10Mg aluminium specimen’s surface laser heat treatment with disk laser equipment (wavelength of 1030nm). The goal of this study was to achieve the desired effect on the aluminium’s surface quality with robotized laser heat treatment equipment. This was to show that the used finishing treatment method could be automated or robotized. The study showed that with the correct laser parameters, it is possible to generate desired effects and features on to the AlSi10Mg aluminium piece’s surface with a robotized process.
