摘要

This study aims to optimize the single-track process parameters (laser power P, scanning speed V, powder feed rate F) and multi-track, multi-layer path parameters (overlap distance L, Z-axis increment ΔZ) in In625 laser cladding. The optimization objectives include clad width W, height H, melt pool area S, and dilution rate D. A Taguchi experimental design was employed, utilizing bubble plots and surface plots to visually present the influence trends of process parameters on the optimization objectives. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) analysis were conducted to assess the significance and impact of the process parameters on the optimization objectives. Using the entropy-weight TOPSIS method, the optimal parameter combination (P = 450W, V = 9 mm/s, F = 10.21 g/min) was determined based on the C value of the comprehensive evaluation index. The path parameters were optimized using a combination of theoretical analysis and experimentation to obtain the optimal overlap distance (L = 730 μm) and Z-axis increment (ΔZ = 180 μm). The optimized parameters were validated through multi-track, multi-layer experiments, and the results show that the fusion cladding layer prepared with the optimized parameters has a uniform and dense organization, uniform hardness distribution, small fluctuation of friction coefficient, and stable performance of the fusion cladding layer. The optimized parameters contribute to the effective implementation of multi-track, multi-layer laser cladding processes, providing a reliable foundation for surface repair and modification in practical applications.
