The powder cylinder is communicated with the transfer chamber through an air pipe; a rotating shaft driven by a motor is transversely arranged in the transfer chamber, and a lower discharge hole is also formed at the bottom of the transfer chamber; the hub is detachable and is arranged on a rotating shaft of the transfer chamber, and a plurality of hole grooves are formed in the circumference of the hub. The negative pressure is kept in the powder cylinder, so that the powder can fall from the powder cylinder and is conveyed through the rotation of the hub. Although the negative pressure powder feeder can solve the problem of controlling the powder feeding amount through the rotating speed and the size of the notch, the hub is directly connected with the through hole and the powder falling hole of the powder cylinder, if the powder feeding amount is too large, the blockage of a powder feeding pipeline can be caused, and the non-spheroidizing powder with higher viscosity, easy agglomeration and accumulation and poor flowability is difficult to drop into a transfer chamber, so that the powder amount is difficult to control when the hub conveys the powder.
With the development of robot welding automation and 3D printing technology, the production of metal parts with complex structures by additive manufacturing is becoming more and more the key point of scientific research, and typical arc additive manufacturing is to use an automatic welding robot and a digital wire feeding system, to melt welding wires into liquid deposited metal by the robot according to a set processing path by reasonably controlling heat input and wire feeding amount, and to stack the welding wires layer by layer until the part processing is completed, but alloy components in the welding wires are fixed, and if the performance of the part is to be improved, the additive manufacturing can be performed only by using the welding wires with different components, so that the part processing consumes time.
