Problems solved by technology

The traditional titanium alloy forging process has low material utilization rate, long production cycle and complicated manufacturing process. The use of additive manufacturing technology can directly realize the near-net shape of the material, which reduces the manufacturing time and saves production costs. Among them, the arc additive manufacturing technology Mainly used in forming complex large structural parts
[0003] The high-strength titanium alloy formed by arc additive manufacturing technology, in the process of gradually melting and depositing the wire with the arc as the heat source, due to the complex thermal cycle process, residual stress is generated inside the titanium alloy structure, resulting in titanium alloy materials with relatively high strength. Low strength and poor low plasticity, etc., the comprehensive mechanical properties decrease
[0004] In the prior art, heat treatment is usually used to improve the mechanical properties of titanium alloys, but the existing heat treatment methods are usually aimed at titanium alloy castings and forgings. The microstructures of titanium alloy forgings and castings are generally equiaxed, and the grains are smaller. Small, the heat treatment process is usually carried out in the α-phase region, and the mechanism is to break the continuous grain boundaries through heat treatment to improve the mechanical properties; and in the process of obtaining titanium alloys by arc additive manufacturing, due to the solidification during the layer-by-layer lapping process And remelting, "bamboo-shaped" β grains will be produced, and the grain size is larger. Therefore, the structure of titanium alloys obtained by arc additive manufacturing is different from that of conventional titanium alloy castings and forgings. Titanium alloys The heat treatment process of castings and forgings is not suitable for high-strength titanium alloys obtained by arc additive manufacturing
In the prior art, there is no report on a heat treatment method suitable for high-strength titanium alloys obtained by arc additive manufacturing

Abstract

The invention provides a heat treatment method for manufacturing a high-strength titanium alloy by electric arc additive manufacturing and a reinforced high-strength titanium alloy, which belong to the field of titanium alloys. In the present invention, after the first heat treatment is performed on the high-strength titanium alloy manufactured by arc additive material, the first cooling is performed to the temperature of the second heat treatment, and the second heat treatment is performed; then the second cooling is performed to room temperature, and then the temperature is raised to the temperature of the third heat treatment to perform the third heat treatment. ; The temperature of the first heat treatment is 10-30°C above the β-transition point of the high-strength titanium alloy produced by arc-added materials, and the time is 15-30 minutes; the temperature of the second heat-treatment is below the β-transition point of the high-strength titanium alloy produced by arc-added materials 40-75°C, the time is 1h; the temperature of the third heat treatment is 500-550°C, and the time is 4-6h. The high-strength titanium alloy treated by the heat treatment method provided by the invention produces a "feather-like" grain boundary α phase at the grain boundary, which prevents intergranular fracture during stretching and can remove residual stress in the titanium alloy.
