Abstract

The invention discloses a forging method for improving the microstructure uniformity of TC18 titanium alloy bars. The method comprises the following steps: heating TC18 titanium alloy ingots, carrying out upsetting and rolling forging once, and pressing down the forged ingots in a downward pressing process to crush an original cast microstructure; and carrying out upsetting and rolling forging on the obtained forging stock at a temperature being greater than a beta phase transition point 2-3 times, carrying out upsetting and rolling forging on the obtained forging stock at a temperature being smaller than the beta phase transition point 2-4 times to prepare a 16-surface object, and carrying out precise forging on the 16-surface object at a temperature of Tbeta-50DEG C once to finally produce TC18 titanium alloy bars with the diameter of 160-260mm. The method improves the microstructure uniformity of the TC18 titanium alloy bars and effectively reduces the deformation microstructure risk through adopting a less upsetting and rolling + high control precision precise forging technology on the premise of guaranteeing the refinement and fragmentation of the microstructure; and the method reduces the production cost and the quality risk and shortens the production period of the bars through reducing the forging frequency and adopting continuous melting, and is suitable for large-scale batch production of the TC18 titanium alloy bars.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nonferrous metal processing, and in particular relates to a forging method for improving the microstructure uniformity of TC18 titanium alloy rods. Background technique [0002] TC18 titanium alloy, whose nominal composition is Ti-5Al-5Mo-5V-1Cr-1Fe, belongs to a multi-component β titanium alloy. Its performance characteristics are high strength, high toughness, and high hardenability. Its forgings are usually quasi-β forging . Its strength can be as high as 1200MPa through heat treatment, and it is widely used in various large structural parts of aircraft and spacecraft. Its good weldability is also manufactured into wire, which can be used as welding wire. The alloy is a nearly β-type high-hardenability titanium alloy, and its deformation resistance is large, which easily leads to a large cumulative deformation of the core; the thermal conductivity of the alloy is low, and the core is prone to overheat...
