PRODUCTION OF METAL MATRIX COMPOSITES BASED ON ALUMINUM-MANGANESE BRONZE AND NICKEL ALLOYS BY WIRE‑FEED ELECTRON-BEAM ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

Samples of composite materials based on BrAMts9-2 bronze with the introduction of the Udimet500 and Inconel625 nickel alloys were obtained by wire-feed electron-beam technology. The studies show that the structures of composites formed during printing, although fairly similar due to the same base of the alloys, have different features due to different combinations of alloying elements. The mechanical properties of the samples with the introduction of up to 15 % of the Udimet500 alloy are higher than those of the samples of the second material. With the introduction of 25 % of a nickel alloy, the strength is higher for the composite material samples with the introduction of the Inconel625 alloy. The microhardness of the samples with the introduction of 5 % of a nickel alloy is identical, the introduction of large volumes of a nickel alloy leads to the implementation of greater hardness in the samples with the introduction of the Inconel625 alloy due to the higher content of refractory materials. Relative elongation after rupture varies insignificantly for the samples of both types.
