ADDITIVE MANUFACTURE OF TURBINE COMPONENT WITH MULTIPLE MATERIALS

摘要

A method for additive manufacturing with multiple materials. First (48), second (50), and third (52) adjacent powder layers are delivered onto a working surface (54A) in respective first (73), second (74), and third (75) area shapes of adjacent final materials (30, 44, 45) in a given section plane of a component (20). The first powder may be a structural metal delivered in the sectional shape of an airfoil substrate (30). The second powder may be a bond coat material delivered in a sectional shape of a bond coat (45) on the substrate. The third powder may be a thermal barrier ceramic delivered in a section shape of the thermal barrier coating (44). A particular laser intensity (69A, 69B) is applied to each layer to melt or to sinter the layer. Integrated interfaces (57, 77, 80) may be formed between adjacent layers by gradient material overlap and/or interleaving projections.
