The invention relates to a hollow shaft and a manufacturing method thereof. The method comprises the steps that a rod is firstly subjected to warm
forging, a blank with a closed end face is reverselyextruded through warm
forging, the closed end face of the blank is removed through
machining, and a tubular rough blank is obtained; the tubular rough blank continues to be subjected to spheroidizingannealing treatment, after being cooled, the tubular rough blank is subjected to shot blasting treatment, phosphating and
saponification, then the tubular rough blank is subjected to cold
forging anddrawing, and a tubular thin blank is obtained; then the tubular thin blank is milled, the irregular end face of the tubular thin blank is removed, and a tubular fine blank is obtained; and the tubularfine blank continues to be subjected to low-temperature annealing treatment, after being cooled, the tubular fine blank is subjected to shot blasting treatment, after
oxide scale on the surface of the tubular fine blank is removed,
radial forging is carried out, and hollow shafts of different specifications and types can be obtained according to requirements. By means of the manufacturing method,overall anti-deformation performance after part forming is guaranteed, the
machining quantity of the
machining process is reduced, and raw materials are saved.
