Abstract:

In view of the characteristics of titanium alloy parts with good performance but low material utilization rate and damage in harsh environments, laser deposition repair technology was used to quickly repair them. The effects of different heat treatments on the microstructure and mechanical properties of titanium alloy(Ti-6.5Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V) repaired by laser deposition were studied. The results show that the forging zone has a bi-modal microstructure, the laser repair zone has a basketweave microstructure, the Ghost α phase was formed in the bottom heat-affected zone, and a large number of massive β phases were formed in the top heat-affected zone. Tensile tests show that its mechanical properties were generally high strength and low plasticity, and were all ductile fractures. The heat treatment method of 920 ℃/1 h achieves a good match between strengthand plasticity. Through Digital image processing technology analysis, it was found that the laser repair zone determines the overall performance of the entire sample, and the thinner lamellar α and the short rod-shaped α phase precipitated in the β matrix help to improve the mechanical properties.

Key words: laser deposition repair technology, mechanical properties, titanium alloys, digital image processing technology
