The invention relates to the technical field of
powder metallurgy, in particular to a stainless steel
powder machining technology. The stainless steel
powder machining technology comprises the following
machining steps that
smelting is conducted, specifically,
solid stainless steel is added into an
intermediate frequency furnace and heated to be melted; glass cullet is added on the
surface layer of molten stainless steel through a furnace opening of the
intermediate frequency furnace, so that the
surface layer of the molten stainless steel is completely covered with the glass cullet; heating and
smelting continue being conducted till the glass cullet and the
solid stainless steel are all melted; water atomization powder manufacturing is conducted, specifically, the molten stainless steel is poured into a
tundish, flows into a high-pressure spray disc from the bottom of the
tundish and falls into an atomization
barrel after flowing out from the high-pressure spray disc; in the atomization
barrel, high-pressure water sprayed out from the high-pressure spray disc impacts a molten stainless steel column, and the molten stainless steel column is broken into stainless steel powder; and
dehydration and
drying are conducted, specifically, the stainless steel powder is subjected to
dehydration and
drying in sequence, and the product stainless steel powder is obtained. By adopting the machining technology, the risk that the stainless steel powder is oxidized can be reduced, and accordingly, the
oxygen content of the stainless steel powder is reduced.
