Flash welding forming method of aluminum alloy thin-wall ring member

Abstract

The invention discloses a flash welding forming method of an aluminum alloy thin-wall ring member, which comprises the steps of: loading a D type ring blank with an opening in a welder, starting the welder to close the opening of the preheated ring blank is closed, applying a 7-18V voltage between two poles of the welder to ensure that the left end face and the right end face of the opening of the ring blank are heated and molten through a flash current with a current density of 20A / mm<2>-150A / mm<2> to form a lintel, exploding to form a flash, wherein the flash burning loss speed of the ring blank is 6.0mm-10.0mm / s; driving the right end face of the ring blank to make an accelerated feeding movement towards the left end face at an initial speed of 4.0mm / s-6.0mm / s and an acceleration of 2.0mm / s<2>-4.0mm / s<2> so as to ensure that the distance between the left end face and the right end face is not more than 5mm; and after the flash is completed, driving a right straight side of the ring blank to move at a high speed towards a left straight side of the ring blank to ensure that the left end face and the right end face collide with each other under the action of an upsetting force of 6kN-11kN to form the flash welding thin-wall ring member, and keeping the pressure for 10s-20s under the action of the upsetting force. The method can ensure that the flash process is continuously and stably carried out, thereby improving the weld quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a welding method, in particular to a flash welding forming method of an aluminum alloy thin-walled ring. Background technique [0002] With the increasing demand for rings in industries such as aviation, aerospace, ships, gas turbines, wind energy, nuclear energy, and bearings, rings formed by traditional rolling methods not only waste a lot of materials due to large machining allowances and low material utilization , but also keeps the cost of ring parts high. The ring parts produced by the flash welding process have less machining allowance, high material utilization rate, and greatly reduce the cost, which is conducive to the development of ring forming technology in the direction of precision forming technology. [0003] The Chinese invention patent specification CN 1233548A published on November 3, 1999 discloses a flash welding process for aluminum alloy wheels of automobiles and motorcycles. The technological process ad...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, in the process of welding thin-walled rings such as aluminum alloy thin-walled rings by flash welding, if the distance between the two ends of the ring blank weld is not well controlled, the flash will stop, which will affect the continuous process of welding and the quality of the weld. , in severe cases, it will cause the weldment to be scrapped
