The invention belongs to the field of
alloy wire manufacturing, and particularly discloses a
precious metal alloy wire for a precision
resistor and a manufacturing method thereof. The
precious metal alloy wire contains gold, iron, aluminum,
ytterbium and
palladium, wherein the alloy wire containing the components has the advantages of
high resistivity,
low resistance temperature coefficient, stable resistance value, small resistance change range, good
machining performance and the like; the manufacturing method comprises the steps that firstly, the gold, the iron, the aluminum, the
ytterbium and the
palladium are prepared and smelted to prepare a
precious metal alloy rod; secondly,
large deformation machining is carried out on the precious
metal alloy rod to prepare a precious
metal alloyrough wire, and then heat treatment is carried out on the precious
metal alloy rough wire; and then
wire drawing preparation, online heat treatment and fine
machining are carried out to prepare a finished product of the precious
metal alloy wire. The manufacturing method ensures the stability of the alloy components, and avoids the defects such as segregation, a transgranular structure, loosening,air holes generated in a traditional
casting mode; and the
large deformation machining ensures that the internal
crystal grains are refined uniformly, the heat treatment enables alloy elements to befurther separated out, the internal
crystal grain structure is stabilized, and the resistivity of the precious
metal alloy wire is increased.
