Abstract:

This paper reports a new processing method that makes a hole rapidly with millisecond pulse laser in scale of joule pulse energy in nickel-based alloy at first, and enlarges the original hole with nanosecond pulse laser in scale of mJ pulse energy secondly for making higher quality cooling holes in aero-engine. In this way we attempt to eliminate the recast of holes made by millisecond pulse laser and resolve the problems of long processing time and limited processing depth caused by nanosecond pulse laser directly making holes with negligible recast,so making high quality holes with higher processing efficiency could be realized. The experimental results show that this method could remove the recast around the holes made by millisecond pulse laser effectively and improve the hole's inner surface quality; compared with nanosecond pulse laser making holes directly, it is effective in increasing the processing efficiency for holes of around 1 mm depth, but no apparent effect in shortening processing time in making holes of above 2 mm depth. Based on the research results and analysis, a few ideas for improving this kind of processing technique are proposed.
