Abstract

The invention discloses a pulsed switch-on preheating flash butt welding process for steel rims of heavy trucks, which belongs to the technical field of welding, and comprises the steps of blanking, reeling, flattening, welding condition setting, fitting, pulsed flash preheating, continuous flash, charged upsetting, pressure maintaining, clamp loosening, deburring, and the like. The process is characterized by comprising the controlled process parameters as follows: the overhanging length is 20-50mm; the flash allowance is 5-12mm; the upset allowance is 5-10mm; the upset force is (2-3)*105 N; the clamp force is (3-6)*105 N; the pulsed switch-on preheating process is (4-10) times*(0.5-1.2) s, (0.1- 0.2) s per pulse; the preheating and welding voltage is 10.8-14.6 V; the flash time is14-30s; and the upset charged time: 0.3-2s. The process disclosed by the invention has the advantages that the degree of automation is high; the process is suitable for welding steel rims (thickness: 3-8mm, width: 300-400mm) of heavy trucks, and after the welded steel rims are sequentially subjected to trimming, flaring, roll shaping and expanding, the welded joints have no crack defect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of welding technology, and in particular relates to a pulse preheating flash welding technology for heavy-duty automobile steel rims. Background technique [0002] The performance of the wheel not only affects the driving safety and handling stability of the car, but also its own weight has a great impact on fuel consumption. As an important part of the car driving system, the wheel requires reliable welding quality, small deformation, and Sufficient resistance to fatigue fracture. [0003] Using the existing technology of non-preheating continuous flash welding process to weld heavy-duty automobile steel rims is prone to cracking of the rim after welding, cracking may occur in the processes of flaring, rolling, and expansion after welding, and the rate of scrap and defective products higher. Contents of the invention [0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a pulse preheating flash we...
