Abstract

The invention discloses a manufacturing method for a large-size high-density high-uniformity CuCr alloy. The manufacturing method is characterized in that CuCr mixed powder is solidified and formed through discharge plasma sintering, by optimizing a sintering die structure, the temperature is increased to 800 DEG C to 880 DEG C through a step heating manner at 10 DEG C / min to 50 DEG C / min and then kept for 2 minutes to 8 minutes while axial mechanical pressure is applied, and a sintered cylinder ingot with the diameter not smaller than 50 mm, the long diameter ratio of 0.04-1.0, the density larger than 99.0%, axial and radial fluctuation less than 1% and an uniform component structure can be obtained. According to the manufacturing method, different sintering conditions can be selected according to the size demand of the CuCr alloy, the process is simple, the period is short, the production efficiency is high, and the obtained CuCr alloy can be made into a finished product through a small amount of subsequent machining and then used as a part of a vacuum circuit breaker in large-power transmission and transformation equipment.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a copper-based vacuum contact material, in particular to a method for manufacturing a CuCr alloy with large size, high density and high uniformity. Background technique [0002] CuCr alloy is widely used as a contact material in medium and high voltage vacuum circuit breakers because of its good resistance to arc erosion and good breaking current. The performance of CuCr alloy mainly depends on the compactness and uniformity of its structure. Due to the low mutual solubility between Cu and Cr and poor wettability, in the development of CuCr alloys for a long time, a porous Cr framework with a certain shape was prepared by powder metallurgy, and then Cu was infiltrated to obtain CuCr Alloy products; if necessary, cold or hot repressing the CuCr alloy after infiltration to make the product meet the required density and strength. [0003] So far, CuCr alloy manufacturing methods mainly include infiltration me...
