Abstract
An additive manufacturing system includes a welding torch, a drive device, a welding power supply, and a controller that controls the welding torch, the drive device, and the welding power supply so as to form any one portion of an outer peripheral portion and an inner portion, which is surrounded by the outer peripheral portion, and then form the other portion in formation of each layer in an additively-manufactured product. he controller individually sets an EN ratio of the outer peripheral portion that is an EN ratio of an alternating current in the formation of the outer peripheral portion and an EN ratio of the inner portion that is an EN ratio of the alternating current in the formation of the inner portion.
Claims7
An additive manufacturing system that supplies a welding current to a consumable electrode wire and stacks a weld bead to form an additively-manufactured product, the additive manufacturing system comprising:
- a welding torch that stacks the weld bead using the consumable electrode wire;
- a drive device that moves the welding torch;
- a welding power supply that supplies an alternating current to the consumable electrode wire as the welding current;
- and
- a controller that controls the welding torch, the drive device, and the welding power supply so as to form any one portion of an outer peripheral portion and an inner portion and then form the other portion in formation of each layer in the additively-manufactured product, the inner portion being surrounded by the outer peripheral portion,
- wherein the controller individually sets
- an EN ratio of the outer peripheral portion that is an EN ratio of the alternating current in the formation of the outer peripheral portion, and
- an EN ratio of the inner portion that is an EN ratio of the alternating current in the formation of the inner portion.
