The titanium alloy thin-walled pipes made from it can greatly improve the lightweight of aviation structural parts.
[0003] In terms of spin forming of high-strength titanium alloys, although a lot of research has been carried out on the thin-wall shell spin forming process, due to its high deformation resistance and poor plasticity at room temperature, cracking problems are prone to occur during the spinning process; and the flame heating method commonly used in the traditional spinning process has poor temperature uniformity and cannot adapt to the development of high-strength titanium alloy spin forming technology. Summary of the invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a Ti-1300 titanium alloy thin-walled tube in view of the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art. The method sequentially performs blanking forging, multi-fire forging, machining, material removal processing, annealing, and spinning processing on the Ti-1300 titanium alloy ingot, and ensures the uniformity of the Ti-1300 alloy bar blank structure by controlling the forging process, and ensures the uniform deformation of the Ti-1300 titanium alloy tube blank during the spinning process by combining the control of the spinning process, solves the problem of spinning cracking, and realizes the production of small batches of multi-specifications of Ti-1300 titanium alloy thin-walled tubes while ensuring the strength and plasticity of the Ti-1300 titanium alloy thin-walled tube.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a method for preparing a Ti-1300 titanium alloy thin-walled tube, characterized in that the method comprises the following steps:
[0006] Step 1: Mix the titanium sponge and the master alloy and press them into electrode blocks, then weld the electrode blocks into electrodes and place them in a vacuum consumable arc furnace for 3 smeltings to obtain a Ti-1300 titanium alloy ingot;
[0007] Step 2: subjecting the Ti-1300 titanium alloy ingot obtained in step 1 to single-phase zone two-fire forging to obtain a Ti-1300 titanium alloy forging blank;
[0008] Step 3, subjecting the Ti-1300 titanium alloy forging blank obtained in step 2 to multi-fire upsetting forging to obtain a Ti-1300 alloy bar blank;
[0009] Step 4: machining the Ti-1300 titanium alloy bar blank obtained in step 3, and annealing the bar blank after passing the flaw detection to obtain a Ti-1300 titanium alloy tube blank;
[0010] Step 5: Spin the Ti-1300 titanium alloy tube blank obtained in step 4 on a high-power spinning machine to obtain a Ti-1300 titanium alloy thin-walled tube; the outer diameter of the Ti-1300 titanium alloy thin-walled tube is 80 mm to 200 mm, the wall thickness is 1.5 mm to 3 mm, and the tensile strength of the Ti-1300 titanium alloy thin-walled tube after heat treatment is not less than 1300 MPa, and the elongation after fracture is not less than 8%.
[0011] The present invention forges a Ti-1300 titanium alloy ingot obtained by vacuum consumable smelting to obtain a forged blank, then performs multiple-fire upsetting forging to obtain a rod blank, and then processes the tube blank into a tube blank by machining, and then performs spinning and heat treatment on the tube blank to obtain a Ti-1300 titanium alloy thin-walled tube. In the preparation process, the uniformity of the Ti-1300 alloy rod blank structure is ensured by controlling the forging process and forging process parameters including forging temperature and deformation amount, and the uniform deformation of the Ti-1300 titanium alloy tube blank during the spinning process is ensured by combining the control of the spinning process and spinning parameters including spinning temperature, wall thickness deformation amount and feed amount, thereby avoiding the occurrence of undesirable phenomena such as expansion cracking, solving the problem of spinning cracking, ensuring the strength and plasticity of the Ti-1300 titanium alloy thin-walled tube and the matching of the two, and realizing the production of small batches of multi-specification Ti-1300 titanium alloy thin-walled tubes.
[0012] The above-mentioned method for preparing a Ti-1300 titanium alloy thin-walled pipe is characterized in that the temperature of the single-phase region two-fire forging in step 2 is not less than 1100°C, and the total deformation of each forging is not less than 80%. The present invention adopts a higher forging temperature to improve the fluidity of the Ti-1300 titanium alloy ingot deformation, and combines the use of a higher deformation amount to achieve the purpose of fully crushing the grains.
[0013] The above-mentioned method for preparing a Ti-1300 titanium alloy thin-walled pipe is characterized in that the process of multi-fire upsetting forging in step three is: first, single-phase zone cooling forging is performed, which is completed in four fires, and the forging temperature is 1050°C to 900°C, and the total deformation of each upsetting forging is not less than 130%; then two-phase zone forging is performed, which is completed in two fires, and the forging temperature is not lower than 800°C, the total deformation of the first upsetting forging is greater than 80%, and the total deformation of the second upsetting forging is greater than 30%. The present invention adopts a multi-fire upsetting forging process of first performing 6 fire forgings in a single-phase region and then performing 2 fire forgings in a two-phase region, so that a Ti-1300 titanium alloy forging blank is gradually deformed to obtain a Ti-1300 alloy rod blank. Combined with controlling the forging temperature and the total deformation amount of each fire, the uniformity of the Ti-1300 alloy rod blank structure is effectively guaranteed, which is beneficial to reducing the deformation resistance in the subsequent spinning process and avoiding the spinning cracking phenomenon.

The present invention further promotes the full and uniform deformation of the Ti-1300 titanium alloy tube blank by strictly controlling the temperature, wall thickness reduction rate, and feed rate of the spinning process, and avoids defects such as spinning expansion cracking.

[0018] 2. In the forging process of the present invention, firstly, two-fire forging in the high-temperature single-phase zone is performed, combined with controlling the forging deformation, to quickly and fully break the coarse cast grains, thereby ensuring uniform deformation of the forging. Then, a large deformation forging method is adopted during the cooling forging in the single-phase zone for four fires, that is, the total deformation of each fire upsetting forging is not less than 130%, thereby achieving control of the uniformity of the rod structure required for the Ti-1300 titanium alloy tube blank, and free forging can be adopted in the forging process, the process flow is highly controllable, and the production of small batches of multi-specifications of Ti-1300 titanium alloy tubes is achieved.
[0019] 3. Compared with the traditional rolling tube process, the preparation method of the present invention has a short production process, and the bar material obtained while preparing the tube blank can be reused, which greatly improves the utilization rate of the material.
[0020] 4. The present invention adopts a multi-pass spinning process and selects M-state, i.e., annealed tube blanks for hot spinning.
