Abstract

In recent years, additive-subtractive hybrid manufacturing (ASHM) technology has become a research hotspot. To realize high-precision manufacturing of complex parts and avoid machining interference, alternating additive manufacturing (AM) and subtractive manufacturing (SM) are valuable to be adopted. In this paper, a finite element numerical model was established to simulate the temperature history, stress distribution, and deformation trend of the thin-walled parts alternately fabricated by AM and milling process. Then, 316L stainless steel thin-walled samples were built by the alternating ASHM process. The molten pool temperature, the surface residual stress, and the surface contour of samples were measured and analyzed. The results show that high tensile stress is exhibited at the junction of the AM segment with the substrate or the previous SM segment. With the increase of deposition height, the tensile stress decreases first and then increases. After the subsequent milling, the surface residual stress level shows a decreasing trend, which is because the milling-induced compressive stress offsets the initial residual tensile stress. Moreover, the deformation of the two ends and the top of the AM segments is more significant than that of the bottom. After SM, the deformation in the top area of the SM segments is still slightly more extensive than the bottom area. The subsequent AM process results in a small increase in the residual stress of the milled segment, but had little effect on its surface deformation. Finally, the repeated cutting height between two segments was studied. Compared with the previous work, this strategy considers the effect of the alternating ASHM process on the residual stress and deformation of thin-walled parts. This study has certain guiding significance for the manufacture of thin-walled parts such as turbine blades and parts with internal structure by alternating ASHM process.
