Film formation method
A film forming method forms a coating film on a workpiece (e.g., a cylinder head) having a film-deposited portion (e.g., an annular valve seat part) by moving a nozzle of a cold spray device relative to the workpiece along a film formation trajectory having a film formation starting point and a film formation finishing point in which the film-deposited portion overlaps to form an overlapping portion. The coating film is formed by causing a raw material powder to collide in a solid-phase state with the workpiece and plastically deform. Also, the coating film on the film-deposited portion is further formed such that an inclination angle of an end part of the coating film relative to a surface of the film-deposited portion is 45° or less at the film formation starting point of the overlapping portion.
1. A film formation method for forming a coating film on a workpiece having a film-deposited portion, the film forming method comprising:
moving a nozzle of a cold spray device relative to the workpiece along a film formation trajectory in which a film formation starting point and a film formation finishing point of the film-deposited portion overlap to form an overlapping portion,
causing a raw material powder to collide in a solid-phase state with the workpiece to form the coating film on the film-deposited portion by plastic deformation of the raw material powder while continuously spraying the raw material powder from the nozzle, and
forming the coating film such that at the film formation starting point of the overlapping portion, an inclination angle of an end part of the coating film relative to a surface of the film-deposited portion is 45º or less.
2. The film formation method according to claim 1 , wherein
the coating film is formed such that at the film formation starting point of the overlapping portion, the inclination angle of the end part of the coating film relative to the surface of the film-deposited portion is 200 or less.
3. The film formation method according to claim 1 , further comprising
setting an average movement speed of the nozzle in a predetermined range including the film formation starting point lower than the average movement speed of the nozzle in another range.
4. The film formation method according to claim 1 , further comprising
setting an amount of the raw material powder sprayed from the nozzle in a predetermined range including the film formation starting point less than the amount sprayed from the nozzle in another range.
5. The film formation method according to claim 1 , further comprising
setting a gun distance of the nozzle in a predetermined range including the film formation starting point greater than the gun distance of the nozzle in another range.
6. The film formation method according to claim 1 , further comprising
forming a recess in the film-deposited portion of the workpiece, the recess being disposed at least partially overlapping the film formation starting point.
