Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the field of hot working forging technology of high-temperature alloy in the manufacturing industry, and particularly relates to a local forming manufacturing method of a high-temperature alloy GH738 turbine disc. BACKGROUND

[0002] Compared with other structural materials, the high-temperature alloy GH738 has excellent mechanical properties, good creep resistance, good surface stability and excellent corrosion resistance at a higher temperature, and is mainly applied in aerospace and marine turbine engines. The turbine disc is a main application product of the high-temperature alloy GH738, and due to the fact that the material contains a large amount of strengthening elements, the high-temperature strength of the material is high, and the plasticity is low, so the material is prone to cracking in the process of machining. The increase of the deformation resistance of the alloy increases the load borne by the press, and with the development of the engine in the direction of large-scale, high thrust-to-weight ratio and high efficiency, manufacturing large high-temperature alloy turbine disc parts has become an urgent requirement in future development.

[0003] The production mode of the turbine disc generally adopts a forging process. Since the hot working temperature range of the high-temperature alloy is narrow, the decrease of the deformation temperature will cause the deformation resistance to increase sharply, and in the actual forging process, a multi-fire process is adopted, that is, the high-temperature alloy is forged to a certain extent, then reheated and forged to the required size, and the above operation can be repeated multiple times until the forging is formed to the finished size. The overall production process of the large turbine disc is as follows: firstly, the blank is opened, and then according to the forging process, the blank can be divided into free forging and die forging, both of which need to be upset to a certain size, and the free forging is formed after the multi-fire forging of the reheated blank. The die forging needs to be finally formed on the die. Since the deformation resistance of the high-temperature alloy is large and the area size of the large turbine disc is large, the carrying capacity of the press equipment needs to be strictly required.

[0004] Patent CN103341586A discloses a forming method of a GH4738 nickel-based high-temperature alloy turbine disc, uses a hard sleeve before forging + composite insulation of insulation cotton for insulation after forging, and adopts a double aging treatment after a solid solution treatment at a sub-solid solution temperature, so that a turbine disc forging without cracking and having good grain organization and excellent mechanical properties is obtained, however, the method improves the performance of the forging from the aspect of heat treatment.

[0005] Patent CN113458308A discloses a limit forming method of an ultra-large turbine disc forging, which forms the center part by pre-die forging and forms the edge part by final die forging, so that the shape and size of the forging meet the requirements, the design of the step-by-step forging reduces the forging load and improves the production efficiency of the press, but the method has high requirements for the die structure and the pressure of the equipment, and there are few presses in China that can meet the requirements.

[0006] The forging of large superalloy turbine disks generally adopts the free end + die forging method. In the forging process, the lower the deformation temperature, the greater the deformation resistance of the superalloy, the greater the contact area between the die and the material, and the greater the load borne by the press. However, the current forging method cannot avoid the above problems, and therefore, there is an urgent need to invent a new forging method to reduce the load borne by the press, meet the shape requirements, and manufacture a superalloy turbine disk without cracking and other defects. SUMMARY

[0007] To solve the above problems, the purpose of the present application is to provide a local forming manufacturing method of superalloy GH738 turbine disk, which can reduce the load borne by the press, avoid edge cracking, and obtain a nickel-based superalloy turbine disk forging with good microstructure and mechanical properties, thereby improving the utilization rate of equipment and reducing production costs.

[0008] Edge cracking is mainly caused by tensile stress, and flat plate compression can cause the material to form a drum shape due to friction and uneven temperature. The improved arc anvil, workpiece overturning, and rectangular anvil forging of the present application can naturally form a concave side surface of the workpiece, reduce the tensile stress of the edge during the final finish forming, and avoid cracking. The forging with good microstructure and mechanical properties is mainly due to the use of a series of process parameters from heating to forging and subsequent heat treatment processes, which can obtain the microstructure and properties of the final product.

[0009] Firstly, the cylindrical blank of superalloy GH738 (nickel-based superalloy) is heated and kept, then soft and hard sleeves are sequentially performed, and the blanked blank is heated and kept in an electric furnace (which reduces the speed of temperature drop of the blank and reduces the deformation resistance of the superalloy); after the blank is completely heated, upsetting process, arc anvil local rotary forging forming, and rectangular anvil local rotary forging forming are sequentially performed to obtain a forging, and finally the forging is sequentially subjected to solid solution treatment, stabilization treatment, and aging treatment to complete the local forming of superalloy GH738 turbine disk, thereby obtaining a forging with uniform microstructure and good performance. The local forming manufacturing method of superalloy GH738 turbine disk of the present application uses local deformation forging technology in the forging process, greatly reduces the contact area between the die and the material, and reduces the load borne by the press.
