Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of forging, in particular to a combined die for deep cylindrical forgings. Background Technique
[0002] A certain type of superalloy forging, the forging material is GH4169, the forging structure is a rotating body with a deep blind hole, the outer shape is approximately frustum-shaped, the outer contour diameter of the forging is 498, and the height is 420 frustum, and the upper surface has a blind hole with a depth of 260. The forming process of such forgings is usually as follows: the bar stock is upset, and it is formed by multi-pass die forging on a die forging equipment, and the die forging equipment is a hydraulic press. During the die forging process, a lower die with a deep cavity and an upper die with a punch are required as Figure 1 shown. The size of the upper die punch is determined according to the size of the blind hole of the forging, and the size of the lower die is designed according to the outer shape of the forging. Since the depth of the blind hole of the deep cylindrical forging is large and the diameter is small, the height-diameter ratio of the die punch is relatively large. Forging dies generally use hot work die steel. Due to the large deformation resistance and narrow process window of superalloys, it has always been a major problem in forging technology.
[0003] During the die forging process, due to the slow pressing speed during forging by the hydraulic press, the contact time between the forging die and the blank is long, the temperature of the blank is high, and the deformation resistance of the superalloy is large. The upper die punch contacts and transfers heat with the blank, quickly raises the temperature, and at the same time under the action of the deformation resistance of the forging, the punch often piles up and deforms, and even scrapped. The service life of the punch is short, resulting in an increase in the production cycle and a significant increase in production costs. And sometimes, due to the deformation of the punch, it is difficult to demold the forging from the upper die, resulting in the scrapping of the forging. It is difficult to mass-produce forgings. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is: to reduce the production cost of forgings, improve the qualified rate of forgings, avoid the scrapping of forgings caused by the forging punching the punch due to the punch piling up; improve the service life of the forging die punch, shorten the die repair and manufacturing cycle, reduce the die repair and manufacturing cost, shorten the production cycle of forgings, and thus improve the production efficiency of forgings.
