Nearly alpha titanium alloy isothermal local loads transition region structure property control method
One, technical field
The present invention relates to hot-working field, specifically a kind of nearly alpha titanium alloy isothermal local loads transition region structure propertyControl method.
Two, technical background
Aero-Space have very high requirement with titanium alloy member to microstructure and mechanical property. For nearly alpha titanium alloy,Forging part requires to have the evenly tiny axle α phase+β that waits to change tissue, to realize the matched well of mechanical property. Adopt etc.When temperature local loading is produced titanium alloy part, forging is the distortion of regional area stand under load at each shaping stage, is being shapedIn journey, on forging, there is load deflection district, not loading zone and transition region. Transition region is subject to loading zone and the not impact of loading zoneAnd deform, unhomogeneity of deformation increases, and adds showing tremendous enthusiasm time and process time also more than common die forging simultaneously. These because ofElement causes forging transition region Microstructural Evolution complexity in process, alligatoring and uneven homogenize easily occurs, transition regionAlso corresponding reduction of mechanical property.
In the patent application that is 200710083701.6 at number of patent application, disclose the complicated entirety of titanium alloy large-sized gusset classThe method of member isothermal local loading and shaping, but do not provide the technical scheme of controlling transition region tissue.
Three, summary of the invention
Organize thick, inhomogeneous and the reduction of transition region mechanical property for overcoming the forging transition region existing in prior artDeficiency, the present invention proposes a kind of nearly alpha titanium alloy isothermal local loading and shaping forging transition region structure property controlling partyMethod.
The present invention by the control of transition region structure property through whole hot procedure, by controlled working process hairBase changes forging, preformed blank preparation, local loading process, finishing process and forges the technological parameter in after-baking,Realize transition region tissue and Properties Control, detailed process is as follows:
The first step, blank change forging
Titan alloy casting ingot is in the above cogging of transformation temperature, and ingot casting is heated to Tβ+ (50~100 DEG C), deflection is greater than 50%,Water-cooled after forging, to improve the metallurgical quality of material, improves the microstructure and composition uniformity of material; Then by the hair obtainingBase is heated to TβThe two-phase section of-(40~50 DEG C) changes forging, and deflection is greater than 50%, and water-cooled after forging is tiny etc. to obtainAxle tissue or bifurcation tissue.
Second step, preformed blank preparation
By the blank appearance parcel adiabatic cotton changing after forging, be heated to Tβ-40 DEG C, adopt open die forging and loose tooling forging to carry out base,Time bases as how fiery in need, and melt down again heating after blank being wrapped up to adiabatic cotton after each fire processing. Can increase like thisEvery fiery deflection, reduces processing fire, suppresses microstructure coarsening.
The 3rd step, isothermal local loading and shaping
In local loading, workpiece is divided into two to three loading zones, mould is divided into corresponding several accordingly. OftenIndividual loading passage is divided into two and loads step, in each loading step, utilizes the mould of piecemeal to enter successively different loading zonesRow local loading, after all loadings complete, proceeds to next and loads passage, repeats the loading side of a loading passageMethod, until arrive total deflection.
The specific implementation process of local loading and shaping is:
First loads work step: blank is heated to Tβ-(30~40 DEG C), mold heated is to Tβ-50 DEG C, with piecemeal mould pairWorkpiece carries out local loading, and pressing speed is 0.2~0.4mm/s, and relative deformation equals total deformation or total deformation55%~65%. As more mold exchange of need, by blank depanning water-cooled.
Second loads work step: blank obtained in the previous step is heated to Tβ-(30~40 DEG C), mold heated is to Tβ-50℃,By other parts of piecemeal die forming workpiece, pressing speed is 0.2~0.4mm/s, and relative deformation equals total deformationOr total deformation 55%~65%.
In local loading, main technological parameter has passage and each pass deformation of loading, heating-up temperature, loading velocity,The type of cooling. For controlling the microstructure of transition region, the selection of main technologic parameters should meet following some: 1. localLoading passage is no more than twice. The preferential a time that adopts loads, and can not be shaped as a time loads, and can select twice timeLoad. While adopting two passages to load, each pass deformation must be greater than the critical strain amount of material generation recrystallization,The first pass deformation is that the 55%~65%, second pass deformation of total deformation is total deformation 45%~35%.2. the heating-up temperature of blank is Tβ-(30~40 DEG C), the heating-up temperature of mould is Tβ-50 DEG C. 3. each loads work step, materialStrain rate 0.01~the 0.02s of material-1, corresponding deformation velocity is 0.2~0.4mm/s. 4. while needing more mold exchange, will forgePart depanning water-cooled.
The 4th step, finishing
Finishing is carried out after last fire that completes local loading and shaping is inferior. Now, each piecemeal mould is depressed simultaneously.Finishing adopts forcing press pressurize to complete, and during due to bulk deformation, required plastic force generally will exceed the equipment scope of forcing press,Its maximum that can provide is provided the tonnage of forcing press pressurize, and the dwell time is 10min~15min. In this conditionUnder, mainly there is superplasticity flow deformation in material, can reduce forming defects.
The 5th step, heat treatment
After forging, take out immediately workpiece water-cooled, then adopt the Technology for Heating Processing of solid solution recrystallization annealing, workpiece is heatedTo Tβ-(20~30 DEG C), insulation 1~2h, water-cooled; Then workpiece is heated to recrystallization temperature, insulation 2~3h, air cooling.
The 6th step, Non-Destructive Testing
Adopt technical scheme of the present invention, can effectively control the microstructure of transition region in local loading and shaping, obtainThe tiny uniform axle α phase+β that waits changes tissue. Transition region macrostructure is fuzzy crystalline substance, and mirco structure does not have blocky α phaseExist. Compared with each loading zone, the axle α phase volume fractions such as transition region and crystallite dimension differ in 5%, mechanicsPerformance is close with each loading zone. Transition region microstructure Evolution is stable, there is no grain coarsening, uneven homogenize and abnormal growthPhenomenon.
