Production Method of 3D Printing Alloy Metal Materials Aluminum Based AlSi12 Metal Powder ：

Blending and mixing: aluminum is cut into small pieces and mixed with other alloying elements, such as copper, silicon, magnesium, etc., in a certain proportion. These alloying elements can be added in the form of metal blocks, metal powders, or wire. Mixing time and mixing speed need to be controlled in the mixing process to ensure the uniform distribution of alloying elements.

Crushing and shape control: the mixed alloy block is broken, and hammer crushing, impact crushing, ball milling, and other methods can be selected to make the alloy block form small particles. In the crushing process, it is necessary to control the size of the crushing force and the crushing mode to avoid too large or too small alloy particles and to maintain the spherical shape of the alloy particles.

Deoxidation treatment: The crushed alloy particles need to be deoxidized to remove oxides and impurities. This can be achieved by heating to a certain temperature in an inert gas environment and holding it for some time. This step can effectively improve the purity and quality of the alloy.

Particle size control and grading: The deoxidized alloy powder needs to be particle size controlled and graded to make the diameter and particle size distribution of the powder meet the requirements of 3D printing. This is accomplished with the help of the screening device or an air classifying device, and it is necessary to control the parameters of the classifying device, such as the airspeed, the speed of the classifying wheel, etc., to obtain a uniform particle size distribution of the alloy powder.

3D printing: The graded alloy powder is loaded into the powder feeding device of the 3D printer and then printed according to the set procedure. During the printing process, an energy source such as a laser or electron beam melts the alloy powder, which is then stacked layer by layer into the desired shape and structure.

Post-treatment: After the printing is complete, the printed part needs to be post-treated to remove the support structure, heat treatment, etc. This can improve the mechanical properties and stability of the print.
