NOVEL IMPLEMENTATIONS OF PLASMA SPRAYING FOR FABRICATING COMPONENTS MADE OF A MULTIHPASE PERFECT MATERIAL

摘要

A component, which has a perfect combination of different materials (including homogeneous materials and different types of heterogeneous materials) in its different portions for a specific application, is considered as the component made of a multiphase perfect material. Based on the requirements for fabricating different types of heterogeneous materials, a hybrid manufacturing process with layered manufacturing, micro-fabrication, and mechanical machining has been developed under the guidance of Axiomatic Design. According to the hybrid process, this paper investigates the related technologies and selects plasma spraying technology to spread materials layer by layer; and further analyzes its key design parameters, improves plasma spraying technology, and presents a novel implementation of this technology.
