Technical Field

[0002] High temperature sintered NdFeB magnet is a permanent magnetic material. At present, the industrial preparation of NdFeB magnet smelting casting mainly adopts the rapid solidification casting method. The principle of the rapid solidification casting method is to melt the prepared metal raw materials into molten metal, and then cast the molten metal onto a rotating copper roller for rapid cooling and solidification. Compared with the traditional ingot casting process, the rapid solidification casting method has a more uniform composition, the main phase and the Nd-rich phase are distributed alternately, and there is no α-Fe segregation. Therefore, the rapid solidification casting process is widely used to prepare high-performance NdFeB magnets. However, the thickness and grain microstructure of the casting prepared by the rapid solidification casting process have an important influence on the performance of the magnet. At the same time, the performance of the magnet is also affected by the preparation process, such as the temperature of the molten metal casting, the casting speed, and the rotation speed of the copper roller. At present, the parameter setting of the rapid solidification casting process equipment mainly depends on the prior parameters of the experimental test data. However, due to the preparation environment, the operating status of the preparation equipment and equipment differences, relying on a priori parameter settings is difficult to cope with changes in the preparation process and can easily cause production losses.

[0046] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0047] See also Figure 1 , which shows a flow chart of a method for preparing a high temperature sintered NdFeB magnet based on copper roller speed control provided by an embodiment of the present invention, the method comprising the following steps:
[0048] Step S001, put the raw materials for preparing NdFeB magnets into the crucible of the vacuum melting and casting furnace according to the proportion, evacuate the vacuum, heat up and melt under the protection of high-purity argon, adjust the rotation speed of the copper roller, and after melting, cast the molten metal in the crucible through the tundish into the water-cooled copper roller for rapid solidification to obtain the NdFeB alloy sheet, collect the temperature data in the vacuum melting and casting furnace, and obtain the cooling initial temperature sequence, cooling completion temperature sequence, first temperature data and second temperature data.
[0049] Raw materials for preparing NdFeB magnets are weighed according to the mass percentage of Pr-Nd: 31wt%, Dy: 0.8wt%, Cu: 0.2wt%, Co: 0.9wt%, Al: 0.4%, B: 1.02wt%, Nb: 0.3wt% and Fe: 65.38wt%, and then put into a crucible of a vacuum melting casting furnace in a certain order according to the melting points, wherein the purity of Pr-Nd is greater than 99%, and the content of Pr in the Pr-Nd alloy is 25%; Dy is added in the form of Dy-Fe alloy, and the content of Dy in Dy-Fe is 80%; Nb is added in the form of Nb-Fe alloy, and the content of Nb in the Nb-Fe alloy is 65%; B is added in the form of B-Fe alloy, and the content of B in the B-Fe alloy is 20%; other raw materials are analytically pure metals.
[0050] Then close the vacuum melting casting furnace and start to evacuate. When the vacuum degree in the vacuum melting casting furnace reaches Pa, stop vacuuming and start filling with high-purity argon. When the argon pressure in the vacuum melting and casting furnace is 0.04MPa, start smelting. Control the smelting temperature at 1500℃. After the above raw materials are completely melted, let them stand and refine for 2 minutes. Adjust the speed of the copper roller to 2m / s, cast the molten metal in the crucible through the tundish onto the water-cooled copper roller for rapid condensation and solidification, and obtain NdFeB alloy sheet with a thickness of 0.35mm.
[0051] Among them, a B-type PtRh30-PtRh6 thermocouple temperature sensor is set in the vacuum melting casting furnace. During the preparation process of the NdFeB alloy thin sheet, the temperature data of the molten metal at the tundish pouring port and the NdFeB alloy thin sheet at the discharge port of the vacuum melting casting furnace are collected. The temperature of the molten metal at the tundish pouring port is the initial temperature of the molten metal cooling, and the temperature of the NdFeB alloy thin sheet at the discharge port of the vacuum melting casting furnace is recorded as the completion temperature of the molten metal cooling.
[0052] Temperature data is collected from two temperature sensors once at every time interval T. The temperature data of the temperature sensors at the molten metal position at the tundish pouring gate are arranged according to the temperature data collection time to obtain the initial cooling temperature sequence. The temperature data of the temperature sensors of the NdFeB alloy sheet at the discharge port of the vacuum melting casting furnace are arranged according to the temperature data collection time to obtain the cooling completion temperature sequence.
[0053] The empirical value of the interval time T is 0.5 seconds, and the empirical values of the number of temperature data included in the cooling initial temperature sequence and the cooling completion temperature sequence are both first empirical values. The empirical value of the first empirical value is 500.
[0054] The temperature data in the cooling initial temperature sequence is recorded as the first temperature data, and the temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence is recorded as the second temperature data.
[0055] At this point, the cooling initial temperature sequence, the cooling completion temperature sequence, the first temperature data and the second temperature data are acquired.
[0056] Step S002: Obtain the floating probability and floating probability weight of the second temperature data, and obtain the copper roller cooling rate matching degree of the second temperature data according to the floating probability and floating probability weight of the second temperature data.
[0057] Due to the measurement error of the molten metal temperature after solidification and the occurrence of temperature anomalies, the initial temperature of the molten metal fluctuates to a certain extent. Different initial temperatures require different cooling rates to match. Therefore, the cooling rate needs to be determined according to the cooling completion temperature of the molten metal to ensure the quality of the NdFeB alloy sheet.
[0058] Each second temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence is recorded as primary temperature data for analysis, and the number of all temperature data from the first second temperature data to the primary temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence is recorded as the first number of primary temperature data.
[0059] The ratio of the frequency of occurrence of the primary temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence to the first quantity of the primary temperature data is recorded as the floating probability of the primary temperature data.
[0060] The absolute value of the difference between the second temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence and the standard temperature of the solidified molten metal is recorded as the floating probability weight of the second temperature data, wherein the standard temperature of the solidified molten metal is 30°C.
[0061] The copper roller cooling rate matching degree of the second temperature data is obtained according to the floating probability and floating probability weight of the second temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence.
[0062]
[0063] In the formula, The first temperature in the cooling completion temperature sequence The matching degree of the copper roller cooling rate of the second temperature data; For the a first number of second temperature data; The first temperature in the cooling completion sequence Second temperature data; The first temperature in the cooling completion temperature sequence The floating probability of the second temperature data; The first temperature in the cooling completion temperature sequence floating probability weight for each second temperature data; is an exponential function with a natural constant as its base.
[0064] When the floating probability and floating probability weight of the second temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence are greater, the matching degree of the copper roller cooling rate of the second temperature data is smaller, that is, the deviation between the second temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence and the standard temperature of the solidified molten metal is greater, the current rotation speed of the copper roller is less matched with the current cooling demand, and the rotation speed of the copper roller needs to be adjusted to improve the production quality of high temperature resistant sintered NdFeB magnets.
[0065] At this point, the matching degree of the copper roller cooling rate of the second temperature data is obtained.
[0066] Step S003, obtaining the abnormal score of the first temperature data according to the first temperature data contained in the cooling initial temperature sequence, obtaining the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient of the second temperature data according to the abnormal scores of all first temperature data contained in the cooling initial temperature sequence and the copper roller cooling rate matching degree of the second temperature data, and obtaining the copper roller speed adjustment sequence.
[0067] The LOF anomaly detection algorithm is used for the first temperature data in the cooling initial temperature sequence to obtain the anomaly scores of all the first temperature data, wherein the hyperparameter K of the LOF anomaly detection algorithm is 3.
[0068] The copper roller rotation speed adjustment coefficient of the second temperature data is obtained according to the abnormal scores of all the first temperature data included in the cooling initial temperature sequence and the copper roller cooling rate matching degree of the second temperature data.
[0069]
[0070] In the formula, The first temperature in the cooling completion temperature sequence The copper roller speed adjustment coefficient of the second temperature data; The first temperature in the cooling initial temperature sequence The anomaly score of the first temperature data; is the mean of the anomaly scores of all first temperature data contained in the cooling initial temperature sequence; The first temperature in the cooling completion temperature sequence The copper roller cooling rate matching of the second temperature data.
[0071] The greater the difference between the abnormal score of the first temperature data in the cooling initial temperature sequence and the mean abnormal score of all the first temperature data contained in the cooling initial temperature sequence, the smaller the matching degree of the copper roller cooling rate of the second temperature data at the same time as the acquisition time of the first temperature data, the greater the adjustment coefficient of the copper roller speed of the second temperature data at the same time as the acquisition time of the first temperature data, that is, the less the current rotation speed of the copper roller matches the current cooling demand, and the more it is necessary to adjust the rotation speed of the copper roller to improve the production quality of high temperature resistant sintered NdFeB magnets.
[0072] Arrange the copper roller speed adjustment coefficients of the second temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence according to the order in which the temperature data are obtained to obtain the copper roller speed adjustment sequence.
[0073] At this point, the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient and the copper roller speed adjustment sequence of the second temperature data are obtained.
[0074] Step S004, according to the second temperature data included in the cooling completion temperature sequence and the standard temperature of the solidified molten metal, obtain the upper floating range of the molten metal cooling completion temperature and the lower floating range of the molten metal cooling completion temperature, obtain the upper floating probability and the lower floating probability of the second temperature data, obtain the molten metal cooling completion temperature floating index according to the upper floating probability and the lower floating probability of all the second temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence, and obtain the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient according to the molten metal cooling completion temperature floating index.
[0075] Too fast or too slow rotation speed of the copper roller will lead to a decrease in the quality of the prepared high-temperature resistant sintered NdFeB magnets. Therefore, it is necessary to set the floating range of the metal liquid cooling completion temperature according to the standard temperature of the solidified metal liquid.
[0076] Get the maximum value of the second temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence and minimum value ,Will As the metal liquid cools down and the temperature rises, As the floating range of the metal liquid cooling completion temperature. is the standard temperature of the solidified molten metal. The temperature floating range diagram is as follows: Figure 2 shown.
[0077] The number of the first second temperature data to the first-level temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence that are within the upper floating range of the molten metal cooling completion temperature is recorded as the upper floating number of the first-level temperature data, and the ratio of the upper floating number of the first-level temperature data to the first number of the first-level temperature data is recorded as the upper floating probability of the first-level temperature data.
[0078] The number of the first second temperature data to the first level temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence that are within the floating range of the molten metal cooling completion temperature is recorded as the downward floating number of the first level temperature data, and the ratio of the downward floating number of the first level temperature data to the first number of the first level temperature data is recorded as the downward floating probability of the first level temperature data.
[0079] The metal liquid cooling completion temperature fluctuation index is obtained according to the upward fluctuation probability and the downward fluctuation probability of all the second temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence.
[0080]
[0081] In the formula, Complete temperature floating index for molten metal cooling; The first temperature in the cooling completion temperature sequence Second temperature data; For the The upward floating probability of the second temperature data; For the The downward floating probability of the second temperature data; is a first empirical value, the empirical value is 500, that is, the number of second temperature data included in the cooling completion temperature sequence; It is the first preset value, and the empirical value is 1.
[0082] When the probability of upward floating in the temperature data of the completion of molten metal cooling is smaller than the probability of downward floating, the temperature floating index of the completion of molten metal cooling is less than 0, and the speed of the copper roller should be reduced; when the probability of upward floating in the temperature data of the completion of molten metal cooling is larger than the probability of downward floating, the temperature floating index of the completion of molten metal cooling is greater than 0, and the speed of the copper roller should be increased.
[0083] The power with the natural constant as the base and the temperature fluctuation index of the metal liquid cooling completion as the exponent is recorded as the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient.
[0084] When the temperature fluctuation index of the metal liquid is larger, the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient is larger. When the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient is greater than 0, the copper roller speed should increase; when the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient is less than 0, the copper roller speed should decrease; when the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient is equal to 0, the copper roller speed should remain unchanged.
[0085] In particular, it should be noted that when the maximum value of the second temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence is less than the standard temperature of the molten metal after solidification, it is considered that the cooling rate of the copper roller is much greater than the cooling requirement, and the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient is assigned to the second preset value. At this time, the copper roller speed should be reduced; when the minimum value of the second temperature data in the cooling completion temperature sequence is greater than the standard temperature of the molten metal after solidification, it is considered that the cooling rate of the copper roller is much less than the cooling requirement, and the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient is assigned to the third preset value. At this time, the copper roller speed should be increased.
[0086] Among them, the second preset value is an integer less than -1, and the empirical value is -3; the third preset value is an integer greater than 1, and the empirical value is 3.
[0087] At this point, the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient is obtained.
[0088] Step S005, obtain the speed of the copper roller according to the copper roller speed adjustment sequence and the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient, realize the control of the copper roller speed, complete the rapid solidification casting, and subject the obtained NdFeB alloy sheets to hydrogen crushing, air flow grinding, magnetic field pressing, sintering, heat treatment and performance testing to obtain high-performance high-temperature resistant sintered NdFeB magnets.
[0089] The copper roller speed adjustment sequence is input into the neural network to obtain the copper roller speed control ratio value. The neural network can use the BP neural network, and the optimization algorithm can use the SGD algorithm. The training process of the neural network is a well-known technology and will not be described in detail.
[0090] The copper roller speed control ratio value of the temperature data and the copper roller speed adjustment coefficient are input into the PID controller to obtain the speed of the copper roller. The obtained speed of the copper roller is used as the actual speed of the copper roller to control the speed of the copper roller. That is, when the speed of the copper roller cannot meet the current cooling demand, the speed of the copper roller is increased according to the adjustment range; when the speed of the copper roller exceeds the current cooling demand, the speed of the copper roller is reduced according to the adjustment range.
[0091] At this point, the rotation speed of the copper roller in the vacuum melting casting furnace can be adaptively adjusted according to the current production status, and the rotation speed of the copper roller can be controlled to obtain higher quality NdFeB alloy sheets.
[0092] The obtained NdFeB alloy flakes were hydrogen crushed and dehydrogenated to obtain magnetic powder with a thickness of 2 mm;
[0093] Then, the magnetic powder is ground into NdFeB alloy powder with a particle size of 3 μm by jet milling under a gas pressure of 0.8 MPa;
[0094] In an argon atmosphere, the obtained 3μm NdFeB alloy powder was pressed into a state with a density of 4.0g / cm3 under magnetic field orientation conditions (magnetic field strength of 1.8T), and then an isostatic pressing process was used to increase the density of the formed green body. The isostatic pressing size was 200MPa, and the pressure was maintained for 2min to obtain the green body.
[0095] After pressing and forming, the green body is vacuum sintered at a temperature of 1090°C, sintered for 4 hours and kept warm for 2 hours, and then filled with high-purity argon gas and rapidly cooled to below 100°C;
[0096] Then the temperature is raised to 900℃ and kept for 2h for primary tempering. After cooling, the secondary tempering is carried out at 480℃ for 2h. After the secondary tempering, high-purity argon is filled and quickly cooled to below 100℃ to obtain high-temperature resistant sintered NdFeB magnets.
