Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of equipment parts of large-scale ring rolling machines, in particular to a segmented core shaft. Background Art
[0002] In the prior art, the mandrel of a large ring rolling machine adopts an integrated structure. The integrated mandrel is usually made of high-strength materials to withstand the high temperature and mechanical stress in the production process. The entire mandrel is used as a single part to ensure its structural integrity and consistency of machining. During the production process, the lower end of the mandrel is in direct contact with the high-temperature ring forging for a long time, which requires the mandrel material to have not only good thermal stability but also excellent mechanical properties to resist shear force and pressure. However, due to being in a high temperature and high shear force operating environment for a long time, the lower end of the mandrel is prone to deformation and wear. This wear and deformation will gradually affect the accuracy of the machine, and eventually lead to a decrease in the accuracy of the entire mandrel, which cannot meet production requirements. Once the mandrel accuracy is reduced, according to the existing integrated mandrel structure, the mandrel usually needs to be replaced as a whole. This replacement not only increases the risk of production interruption, but also brings about a significant increase in material and labor costs, resulting in a large cost waste. How to reduce the replacement cost caused by mandrel wear and deformation while ensuring production efficiency and machine accuracy is the main technical challenge facing the current large ring rolling machine design.
