Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the field of electric arc additive manufacturing, and relates to component design of a dual-core filling wire for a particle-reinforced maraging steel, in particular to a process method for manufacturing a particle-reinforced maraging steel by using a dual-wire electric arc additive manufacturing method. BACKGROUND
[0002] A maraging steel is a special ultra-high-strength steel that takes Fe-Ni martensite with no carbon or ultra-low carbon (carbon content ≤ 0.03%) as a base, adds different amounts of Co, Mo, Ti, Al and other elements, and is strengthened by precipitating fine and dispersed intermetallic compounds in the lath martensite matrix through aging treatment. It has high strength and toughness, and the heat treatment process is relatively simple. It has been widely used in precision molds, aerospace rocket engine casings, automobile manufacturing and other fields.
[0003] Additive manufacturing is the most potential technology in the whole advanced manufacturing technology system. As an important branch of additive manufacturing, electric arc additive manufacturing technology uses an electric arc as a heat source to melt the filling wire, and directly manufactures solid parts through layer-by-layer accumulation. It has the advantages of high manufacturing efficiency, high flexibility and low cost, and has broad application prospects in maraging steel rapid forming, efficient repair and remanufacturing.
[0004] In existing electric arc additive manufacturing technology of maraging steel, the mechanical properties of the additive parts are generally low, which is difficult to meet the application requirements. Ceramic particles have the characteristics of small aspect ratio and difficulty in forming obvious orientation. By adding micro-nano reinforcing particles to the filling material, the heterogeneous nucleation effect is realized, which is an effective way to improve the material structure and enhance the mechanical properties. Chinese patent (publication number CN202010165374.4) proposes a composite particle reinforced metal powder core welding wire suitable for CMT electric arc additive manufacturing, which uses a method of reinforcing the metal powder core with nano-tungsten carbide and titanium carbide composite particles. Dispersed titanium carbide is used as a heterogeneous nucleation point for primary carbide to hinder the growth of primary carbide, refine the structure, and obtain better additive manufacturing effect. Chinese patent (publication number CN202111673864.6) proposes a method of adding titanium diboride particles to a nickel-based core wire, which modifies the precipitation-hardened nickel-based alloy Inconel 718 to improve the comprehensive performance of the TIG welding additive composite cladding layer.
[0005] According to the search of the prior art, it is found that there is currently a lack of particle reinforced martensitic age hardening steel filling wire special for electric arc additive manufacturing, and there is no related research and application report on electric arc additive manufacturing of particle reinforced martensitic age hardening steel. It is difficult to change the alloy composition or add particle reinforced phase by using solid filling wire, thereby limiting its application in related aspects, while the method of using cored filling wire is easy to adjust the alloy composition and ratio and add particle reinforced phase, which provides a new idea for improving the comprehensive performance of martensitic age hardening steel by electric arc additive manufacturing, and this is the idea of the present application. SUMMARY
[0006] In order to solve the above limitations and deficiencies, the present application designs a ceramic particle reinforced martensitic age hardening steel double cored filling wire, which overcomes the disadvantage that the composition design and element content of the single powder cored filling wire cannot be considered, and proposes a process method for preparing particle reinforced martensitic age hardening steel by double cored filling wire TIG electric arc additive manufacturing, especially using double wire feeding TIG electric arc additive manufacturing to prepare martensitic age hardening steel with specific composition and particle reinforced content, so as to obtain martensitic age hardening steel components with good wear resistance and high strength.
[0007] In order to achieve the above purpose, the specific scheme adopted by the present application is as follows:
[0008] A martensitic age hardening steel cored filling wire for double wire electric arc additive manufacturing, comprising a first cored filling wire and a second cored filling wire.
[0009] The first cored filling wire comprises an outer skin and a cored powder. The outer skin is made of low carbon steel strip; according to mass percentage, the cored powder comprises manganese powder 0.5%-1%, cobalt powder 34%-36%, titanium powder 4%-5%, aluminum powder 1%-2%, molybdenum powder 47%-48%, and the balance is iron powder.
[0010] As a further optimization of the above scheme, the outer skin width of the low carbon steel strip is 20mm, and the thickness is 0.7mm.
[0011] As a further optimization of the above scheme, the carbon content of the low carbon steel strip is less than 0.03%, so as to avoid introducing too much carbon element in the steel strip. Its composition includes carbon content 0.03%, manganese content 0.06%, and the balance is iron content.
[0012] As a further optimization of the above scheme, the filling rate of the cored powder core of the first cored filling wire is 20%-30%.
[0013] As a further optimization of the above scheme, the diameter of the first cored filling wire seamless cored filling wire is
[0014] 1.2mm-2.4mm.
[0015] The second drug core filling wire comprises an outer skin and a drug core powder.
[0016] As a further optimization of the above scheme, the outer skin of the iron-nickel alloy steel belt has a width of 20 mm and a thickness of 0.7 mm.
[0017] As a further optimization of the above scheme, the mass ratio of Fe to Ni in the iron-nickel alloy steel belt is 1:1.
[0018] As a further optimization of the above scheme, the ceramic particles can be any one of silicon carbide particles, titanium diboride particles, titanium carbide particles, and vanadium carbide particles.
[0019] As a further optimization of the above scheme, the particle size of the ceramic particles is 3-6 mu m.
[0020] As a further optimization of the above scheme, the filling rate of the second drug core filling wire is 20-30%.
[0021] As a further optimization of the above scheme, the diameter of the second drug core filling wire is 1.2-2.4 mm.
[0022] The design and selection of the element components of the drug core powder of the present application are based on the following:
[0023] One of the main roles of Ni is to make the matrix obtain lath martensite containing high-density dislocations. Ni3Ti, Ni3Mo and other strengthening phases can be formed in the martensitic aging steel, ensuring high strength and high hardness. If the content of Ni is less than 10%, the toughness will decrease.
[0024] Co element can improve the martensite transformation temperature point (Ms) and promote the full transformation of martensite. At the same time, it improves the tempering stability, but too high content will reduce the toughness.
[0025] Mo is a ferrite forming element that can improve the corrosion resistance, high temperature strength and tempering performance of steel. It can make the steel precipitate fine close-packed cubic M2X phase during aging process. This precipitated phase has very high stability and can slow down the process of being replaced by carbide, thereby increasing the tempering stability and increasing the secondary hardening effect.
[0026] Al and Ti can fix impurities in steel, reduce segregation, and prevent intergranular corrosion.
[0027] One method of designing the composition of maraging steel is to control the martensite start temperature (Ms point). When the martensite transformation temperature is too low, there is a large amount of residual austenite in the cooling process of maraging steel, thereby weakening the precipitation strengthening effect, and the yield strength of the martensite matrix will decrease significantly. The chemical composition of the parent phase austenite is the dominant factor affecting the phase transformation temperature of maraging steel. Most of the alloying elements will lower Ms, such as C, Ni, Mn, Cu, etc., V and Ti have little effect on Ms, and Al, Co, etc. are alloying elements that increase Ms. According to the dependence of the above alloying elements on the martensite transformation temperature point, refer to the following empirical formula, appropriately adjust the alloy composition to control the martensite transformation starting temperature between 200-350℃, and promote the full transformation of martensite.
[0028] Ms = 767.7-305.4w(C)-30.6w(Mn)-14.5w(Si)-8.9w(Cr)-16.6w(Ni)+2.42(Mo)
[0029] +53w(V)+8.58w(Co)+40.4w(Al)+7.4w(W)-11.3w(Cu)
[0030] +510.4w(Nb)
[0031] And in the selection of ceramic particles, the melting point of VC is 2730℃, the density is 5.3g / cm 3 , the expansion coefficient is 4.2×10 -6 / ℃, the elastic modulus is 430GPa, and the hardness is 2090HV; the melting point of TiC is 3065℃, the density is 4.95g / cm 3 , the expansion coefficient is 7.7×10 -6 / ℃, the elastic modulus is 448GPa, and the hardness is 3000HV; the melting point of TiB2 is 2980℃, the density is 4.52g / cm 3 , the expansion coefficient is 8.1×10 -6 / ℃, the elastic modulus is 510GPa, and the hardness is 2650HV; the melting point of SiC is 2700℃, the density is 3.12g / cm 3 , the expansion coefficient is 3.6×10 -6 / ℃, the elastic modulus is 380GPa, and the hardness is 2600HV. Compared with other commonly used ceramic particles, these types of ceramic particles are more suitable for use as particle reinforced phases of 18Ni maraging steel.
[0032] Another technical solution of the application is a method for preparing a drug-filled wire, which is implemented according to the following steps:
[0033] Step 1, dry each core powder ingredient, and weigh the required grams according to the desired alloy composition with an electronic balance;
[0034] Step 2, heat and hold the dried core powder ingredients in a vacuum tube furnace filled with an argon atmosphere for a period of time;
[0035] Step 3, fill the dried core powder in the vacuum tube furnace into the U-shaped groove of the steel strip;
[0036] Step 4, after closing, assist rolling by ultrasonic vibration generated by an ultrasonic device, apply ultrasonic vibration in a certain direction to the drawing die to intensify thermal motion, effectively improve the plastic deformation ability of the metal strip, reduce stress concentration and work hardening of the strip, inhibit crack generation during deformation, improve the forming quality of the strip, and produce the flux-cored wire;
[0037] In step 4, first produce 3.0 mm flux-cored wire, and then produce the final required 1.2 mm-2.4 mm flux-cored wire by reducing the aperture multiple times.
[0038] Further limited, the heating temperature in step 2 is 150℃-250℃, and the holding time is 0.5h-1.5h.
[0039] Further limited, the power of the ultrasonic device in step 4 is set to 500W-2000W, and the vibration frequency is set to 20kHz-40kHz.
