AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the manufacturing of ring-shaped forgings for aero-engine casings, existing technologies suffer from poor forging quality stability, and are prone to problems such as mixed grains and unqualified yield strength. This is mainly due to the narrow forging processing window and the sensitivity of microstructure and mechanical properties to hot working parameters.

Method used

Using GH3625 alloy as the material, the forgings are manufactured through steps such as heat treatment, upsetting/punching, free forging, ring rolling, and solution treatment. The heating temperature, deformation amount, and time are controlled, and combined with composite heat-insulating agents, to ensure the uniformity of the microstructure and mechanical properties of the forgings.

Benefits of technology

It achieves a grain size of 6-7 at room temperature and a yield strength of over 460MPa, meeting the technical requirements for aero-engine casing forgings. Furthermore, it reduces manufacturing costs by recycling scrap materials and improves the mechanical properties and wear resistance of the forgings.
