Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of alloys, and particularly to a wear-resistant alloy coating drill bit and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of industrial manufacturing technology and the continuous improvement of process requirements for material processing, drill bits have become an indispensable and important tool in machining. In high-end manufacturing industries such as mechanical manufacturing, aerospace, and automotive manufacturing, drill bits are widely used for drilling, cutting, and machining of metal materials. However, due to the challenging strength and hardness of the processing materials, drill bits are extremely vulnerable to wear and fatigue damage under high temperature, high pressure, and high-speed cutting conditions during actual use. Therefore, improving the wear resistance, cutting efficiency, and service life of drill bits has become a research hotspot in the industry.
[0003] Traditional drill bits are usually made of high-speed steel (HSS) or cemented carbide materials. Although high-speed steel is suitable for a wide range of processing environments due to its excellent toughness and machinability, its anti-wear performance is poor, and it is prone to softening or rapid wear due to the action of frictional heat. Cemented carbide drill bits, although having high hardness and wear resistance, are limited in their use environment and working conditions due to their brittleness. In addition, during the processing of these two types of drill bits, especially in the application on high-strength and high-hardness workpieces (such as hardened steel, stainless steel, heat-resistant alloys, etc.), they often fail due to rapid wear of the cutting part, spalling of the surface coating, or insufficient toughness. Therefore, in order to further improve the comprehensive performance of drill bits, more and more research has been focused on applying surface engineering technology in the preparation process of high-performance drill bits.
[0004] In current surface engineering technology, the coating method has gradually become an important process means to improve the performance of drill bits. By applying an anti-wear coating on the substrate surface, the wear resistance, impact resistance, and high-temperature stability of drill bits can be effectively enhanced. However, the commonly used coatings at present have relatively low bonding strength between the coating and the substrate, uneven interface stress distribution, and serious coating spalling phenomena during the processing, resulting in great limitations on the anti-spalling ability of the coating. In addition, the simple hard particle reinforcement technology in traditional coating processes, although it can endow the coating with high hardness, is prone to crack propagation in the coating under cutting load or thermal shock due to stress concentration inside the coating and mismatched physical properties with the substrate, thus shortening the service life of the drill bit. Therefore, how to achieve high-quality bonding between the coating and the substrate and optimize the internal stress distribution of the coating has become a key issue affecting the improvement of coating performance. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, the object of the present invention is to provide a wear-resistant alloy-coated drill bit and its preparation method, so as to solve the problems of insufficient wear resistance, low interfacial bonding strength and uneven stress distribution existing in the existing drill bit coatings, resulting in premature wear of the cutting edge and coating spalling, which seriously affect the service life of the drill bit.

[0078] Performance test:
[0079] Abrasion resistance test: According to GB / T 12444-2006, a ring-block wear test was carried out. It was paired with a GCr15 steel counter-ring (HRC62-64) on an MM-200 type friction and wear testing machine. The test load was set at 200 N, the rotation speed was 400 rpm, and the duration was 30 min. An electronic balance was used to measure the wear amount. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0080] Coating bonding strength test: According to the standard of GB / T 8642-2002, the bonding strength was measured by the scratch method. A WS-2005 type scratch testing machine was used, the diamond indenter had a cone angle of 120° and a radius of 0.2 mm. The scratch length was 5 mm, the loading rate was 100 N / min, and the critical load was taken as the minimum load value when the acoustic emission signal changed suddenly.

[0084] Data analysis:
[0085] From the data of Examples 4-6 in Table 1, it can be seen that the modified powder and multi-layer coating process of the present invention significantly improve the wear resistance, bonding strength and cutting performance of the coating. The generation of this technical effect may be related to the interface strengthening effect of cobalt-catalyzed carbon nanotubes and the synergistic characteristics of the molybdenum-based top layer coating.
[0086] From the data of Example 5 and Comparative Example 1 in Table 1, it can be seen that the addition of the modified powder significantly improves the wear resistance, bonding strength and cutting performance of the coating. This may be due to the mechanical anchoring effect formed by cobalt-catalyzed carbon nanotubes. The stepped modulus distribution generated by the layer-by-layer spraying process may optimize the stress transfer path, reducing the peak value of the interfacial shear stress. During the laser remelting process, the active nitrogen atoms in the modified layer may participate in the formation of cobalt nitride transition phases. This interfacial compound layer can effectively inhibit crack propagation.
[0087] It can be seen from the data of Example 5 and Comparative Examples 2-3 in Table 1 that the strengthening effect of adding the modified powder directly to the bottom layer or the top layer powder is lower than that when it is located alone in the middle layer. This may be because when it is located in the middle layer, the modified powder can be orderly transformed into a graphitized carbon structure under the catalysis of the bottom layer cobalt and its own cobalt. This directionally grown carbon nanotube network may enhance the toughness of the coating. More energy is required to consume for the carbon nanotube pulling-out force during the fracture process, and when it is located in the middle layer, it helps to avoid the formation of brittle intermetallic compounds.
[0088] It can be seen from the data of Example 5 and Comparative Example 4 in Table 1 that the cobalt in the modified powder can further promote the strengthening effect of the modified powder. This is mainly because the cobalt in the modified powder further promotes the directional growth of the carbon nanotube network and enhances the mechanical anchoring effect.
[0089] It can be seen from the data of Example 5 and Comparative Example 5 in Table 1 that too high a bottom layer laser power may lead to abnormal growth of carbon nanotubes and may also cause matrix softening, thereby affecting wear resistance, bonding strength and cutting performance.
