Dövme ve Eklemeli İmalat Yöntemiyle Üretilmiş Inconel 625 Alaşımların Termal Yöntemle Hızlı Delinmesinde Elektrot Aşınmasının İncelenmesi

Üretildikleri 1950’li yıllardan beri havacılık, uzay, nükleer, biyomedikal endüstrisi gibi ileri mühendislik uygulamalarında sıklıkla tercih edilen Inconel grubu alaşımların daha maliyet etkenli bir yöntem olan eklemeli imalat yöntemiyle üretilebilirliği son 20 yılda yoğun olarak çalışılmaktadır. Ancak, süper alaşımlar işlenebilirliği zor malzemeler grubunda olup, iletkenlikleri zayıf olduğundan bu alaşımların delinmesinde kullanılan elektrotlarda ciddi hasarlar meydana gelmektedir. Dahası, eklemeli imalat yöntemiyle üretilen bu alaşımların delinebilirliğinde kullanılan elektrotlardaki aşınmayı inceleyen sınırlı sayıda çalışma vardır. Bu amaçla bu çalışmada, dövme ve eklemeli imalat tekniği ile üretilmiş Inconel 625 alaşımların, EDM ile hızlı delik delme yöntemi kullanılarak 3 mm çapında pirinç elektrotlarla delinmesi neticesinde aşınan elektrotlarda oluşan aşınma miktarları incelenmiştir. Elektrot aşınması; iş parçası üzerinden ölçülen delik çapları ve kerf açıları dikkate alınarak analitik olarak ve deneylerde aşınan elektrotların hassas terazilerle tartılması ile fiziksel olarak tespit edilmiştir. Daha tok ve kararlı bir yapıda olan dövme Inconel malzemeyi işleyen elektrodun eklemeli imalat Inconel alaşımı işleyen elektroda göre % 108,33 daha fazla aşındığı tespit edilmiştir. Buna ilaveten, dövme Inconel iş malzemesinde elektrot aşınmasından kaynaklı kerf açısının eklemeli imalat Inconel malzemeye göre % 80,06 daha fazla olduğu görülmüştür.
