Problems solved by technology

Due to the limitation of extrusion equipment and die size, the minimum outer diameter of magnesium alloy extruded tube billet is about 13.5mm, and the material mechanical properties, geometric dimension accuracy and appearance quality are poor, so it cannot meet the high-tech fields such as aviation and aerospace. The demand for complex parts and components in precision equipment limits the application and development of magnesium alloys in many fields such as national defense and civil use

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for cold machining and forming of magnesium alloy tubes. Magnesium alloy hot-extruded tube blanks or magnesium alloy cast tube blanks going through a vacuum heat treatment are milled into magnesium alloy tubes by a cold mill. The feeding capacity for tube blank ranges from 5 to 15mm / t, the travel speed of a working frame ranges from 15 to 30t / min, the deformation for pass is controlled to be 5 to 25 percent, the accumulated deformation does not exceed 45 percent and the ratio of the relative wall reduction to the relative sizing reduction is controlled to be 0.8 to 3.2; the magnesium alloy tubes after cold work hardening are put into a vacuum heat treatment furnace or pipe type resistance furnace containing protection atmosphere for performing a recrystallization, anneal and intermediate heat treatment, the temperature for the intermediate heat treatment is 200 to 450 DEG C; after thermal insulation is performed for 0.5 to 14 hours, the magnesium alloy tubes are obtained by machining after air cooling or furnace cooling. The working method of the invention is simple and easy to realize, has low cost and can improve the mechanical property of magnesium alloy tubes and the machined tubes have favorable surface quality and high geometrical dimension accuracy.
