摘要
Cemented carbides, known for their exceptional hardness, thermal stability, and wear resistance, serve as vital components across various industries, including mechanical manufacturing, aerospace, and chemical engineering. Despite their advantageous properties, poor machinability restricts the application of cemented carbides in manufacturing complex-shaped components. However, 3D printing technology offers a novel solution, enabling the production of cemented carbide parts with intricate geometries, on-demand manufacturing, and a reduction in material waste and scrap compared to traditional methods. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the latest advancements in cemented carbides 3D printing technology. It outlines the raw materials and preparation methods utilized for cemented carbides, examines the principles and characteristics of cemented carbides 3D printing, and highlights recent technological innovations. Additionally, the paper analyzes metallurgical defects that may occur during the printing process and discusses various detection methods, alongside post-processing techniques for 3D-printed cemented carbide substrates. Finally, the review explores future development directions in cemented carbides 3D printing, considering potential trends in manufacturing processes.
