Abstract
To improve the forming quality, twelve annular cross-scanning strategy models for radial groove laser cladding of annular thin-walled parts are established in the paper. A thermo-mechanical coupling simulation is carried out to investigate the temperature, stress and deformation under different scanning strategies. Based on the results of various scanning strategies, the scanning strategy with the minimum deformation is obtained. The single-layer and single-track results indicate that the maximum value of residual stress is at the junction of cladding layer and the groove. For the single-layer and multi-track, the scanning strategy of cold overlap** between tracks is better than that of hot overlap** between tracks. For the multi-layer and single-track, the scanning strategy of hot overlap** between layers is better than that of cold overlap** between layers. Among the twelve scanning strategies, the scanning strategy with the minimum heat accumulation has the minimum deformation for the two-layer and two-track. The optimal scanning strategy is the cold overlap** between tracks first and then the hot overlap** between layers. Finally, the laser cladding experiment is carried out on radial grooves of annular thin-walled parts with the optimal scanning strategy, and the simulation results are verified.
