Abstract

Provided is a metal laminating and modeling method including sequentially carrying out a step of laminating metal layer to form a modeled article, in which the step of laminating a metal layers includes a step of forming blocking beads that are continuous along the outer peripheral shape of the modeled article by arc welding on at least one end portion in the width direction of a target surface, on which the metal layers are to be formed, and a step of forming inner beads by arc welding with a current higher than the current in the step of forming blocking beads so as to fill a space on the inside of the blocking beads in the width direction of the target surface.

Claims (29)

1. A metal laminating and modeling method comprising:

sequentially carrying out a step of laminating a metal layer to form a modeled article, wherein

the step of laminating a metal layer includes

a step of forming blocking beads that are continuous along an outer peripheral shape of the modeled article is formed by arc welding on at least one end portion in a width direction of a target surface on which metal layers are to be formed, and

a step of forming inner beads by arc welding with a current higher than a current in the step of forming blocking beads so as to fill a space on an inside of the blocking beads in the width direction of the target surface, and

in the step of forming blocking beads,

first blocking beads are formed at positions spaced inward in the width direction from an edge portion on an outside in the width direction of the target surface, and then,

in a state in which the target surface is obliquely inclined downward from the outside in the width direction toward an inside in the width direction, second blocking beads are formed adjacent to the first blocking beads on the outside in the width direction of the target surface.

2. The metal laminating and modeling method according to claim 1 , wherein

in the step of forming blocking beads, the blocking beads are formed on both end portions of the target surface in the width direction, and

in the step of forming inner beads, the inner beads are formed so as to fill a space between the blocking beads on both sides in the width direction of the target surface.

3. The metal laminating and modeling method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the step of forming blocking beads, a plurality of rows of the blocking beads is formed side by side in the width direction on the target surface, and the blocking beads are formed on an upper tier side of the plurality of rows of blocking beads in a smaller number of rows than the plurality of rows of blocking beads in the width direction.

4. The metal laminating and modeling method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a step of cutting and levelling an upper surface of the metal layer.

5. The metal laminating and modeling method according to claim 1 , wherein a table provided so as to be rotatable around a central axis and a welding nozzle that is disposed above the table and carries out arc welding are relatively rotated around the central axis, thereby laminating the metal layers on the table.

6. A metal laminating and modeling method comprising:

sequentially carrying out a step of laminating a metal layer to form a modeled article, wherein

the step of laminating a metal layer includes

a step of forming blocking beads that are continuous along an outer peripheral shape of the modeled article is formed by arc welding on at least one end portion in a width direction of a target surface on which metal layers are to be formed, and

a step of forming inner beads by arc welding with a current higher than a current in the step of forming blocking beads so as to fill a space on an inside of the blocking beads in the width direction of the target surface, wherein

in the step of forming inner beads, the inner beads are formed in a state in which the target surface is obliquely inclined downward from an inside in the width direction toward an outside in the width direction on which the blocking beads are formed.

7. The metal laminating and modeling method according to claim 6 , wherein, in the step of forming inner beads, the target surface is inclined such that an inclination of a valley portion that is formed by the blocking beads and the target surface is symmetric to a welding nozzle that carries out arc welding.

8. The metal laminating and modeling method according to claim 6 , wherein

in the step of forming blocking beads, the blocking beads are formed on both end portions of the target surface in the width direction, and

in the step of forming inner beads, the inner beads are formed so as to fill a space between the blocking beads on both sides in the width direction of the target surface.

9. The metal laminating and modeling method according to claim 6 , wherein, in the step of forming blocking beads, a plurality of rows of the blocking beads is formed side by side in the width direction on the target surface, and the blocking beads are formed on an upper tier side of the plurality of rows of blocking beads in a smaller number of rows than the plurality of rows of blocking beads in the width direction.

10. The metal laminating and modeling method according to claim 6 , further comprising:

a step of cutting and levelling an upper surface of the metal layer.

11. The metal laminating and modeling method according to claim 6 , wherein a table provided so as to be rotatable around a central axis and a welding nozzle that is disposed above the table and carries out arc welding are relatively rotated around the central axis, thereby laminating the metal layers on the table.
