Resumen
Energy efficiency is a highly relevant aspect in modern manufacturing processes, not only for economic reasons, but also because of the environmental impact it generates. With the aim of contributing to a more efficient and environmentally friendly manufacturing process, this research analyses the energy consumption of the Laser Directed Energy Deposition (DED-LB). First, the energy efficiency of the laser generator is characterized. In a second step, the deposition process is evaluated, which enables to categorize the process according to the amount of energy required per gram of material deposited, and the mass-deposition efficiency. For this purpose, a 3-level design of experiment (DOE) is performed in order to study the effect of the laser power, mass rate, and machine feed rate on the process efficiency. Besides, a metallographic study is also performed to ensure the metallurgical quality. Energy and material saving of 35% are obtained without influencing the clad quality.
