Abstract

The invention provides a forming process of Nb pipes, which belongs to the field of processing and manufacturing of a noble metal seamless steel pipe, and overcomes the defects of a traditional process that the heating time is long, the temperature control is not accurate, and the yield is low and the like. The forming process comprises the following production steps: 1. blanking; 2, punching a phi50 through hole; 3. carrying out finish turning on an outer surface and an end face; 4. coating water glass on the inner and outer surfaces; 5. heating by an induction furnace; 6. spraying glass powder on the inner and outer surfaces; 7. hotly chambering; 8. heating by the induction furnace; 9. spraying the glass powder on the inner and outer surfaces; 10. carrying out extrusion forming; 11. straightening; and 12. carrying out surface sand blasting, head flattening and size checking; and then packaging after ultrasonic flaw detection. According to the process, a glass powder protection method is adopted so that the heating time can be shortened in a large range and is shortened to be about 5 minutes from 6-10 hours; the temperature of a blank can be directly measured so that the process is easy to control; and the yield can be improved to be more than 80% from previous 60%-75%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a process for manufacturing a precious metal seamless steel pipe. Background technique [0002] Nb (niobium) has a small neutron capture cross-section, high thermal conductivity and high strength, and is used as a nuclear fuel cladding material, nuclear fuel additive, and heat exchanger structural material in atomic energy reactors. Nb In the traditional extrusion process, a through hole of ?80-160 is punched in the center of the blank, sealed with a copper sheath, preheated in a resistance furnace or an annular furnace, heated in an induction furnace, and then directly entered into the extrusion machine for extrusion. The heating time is 6-10 hours, and the finished product rate is 60-75%. [0003] For the Nb billet, it needs to drill a through hole of ?80-160 before extrusion, seal it with a copper sleeve, heat it in a resistance furnace or a ring furnace, and directly enter the extrusion machine for extrusion molding. The d...
