Problems solved by technology

The processing of Ti185 rods is as mentioned above because of its high Fe content, using conventional vacuum consumable arc melting and hot pressure processing methods. Ti185 rods currently on the market have not completely solved the segregation of Fe elements. The problem of β spots occurs, and the high-speed rotating rod often breaks and flies out of this defect, causing safety accidents. After high-magnification scanning of the fracture, it is found that there are a large number of spots at the fracture. The surface scanning composition is Fe, which is Fe. segregated phase, the formation of β spots
Although researchers and pressure processing personnel have worked hard to reduce or eliminate β spots, not every batch can avoid β spots, and some of the same batch have β spots and some do not, and the performance of each batch or the same batch is always Very unstable, resulting in unstable performance of Ti185 alloy rods

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a high-strength titanium alloy rod for powder-making by additive manufacturing, comprising the following steps: 1. mixing titanium alloy raw materials to obtain a mixture; 2. pressing the mixture to obtain an electrode block; 3. Medium-frequency induction melting of the electrode block to obtain a cylindrical blank; 4. Grinding, chamfering and welding the cylindrical blank to obtain a welded cylindrical blank; 5. Vacuum consumable arc melting of the welded cylindrical blank to obtain a cylindrical ingot; 6. Casting the cylindrical Ingot forging to obtain forged rods; 7. High-temperature crystallization and low-temperature annealing of forged rods to obtain high-strength titanium alloy rods. In the present invention, a unique nano-level hierarchical structure is formed in the microstructure of high-strength titanium alloy rods through medium-frequency induction melting combined with vacuum consumable arc melting and high-temperature crystallization, which ensures that high-strength titanium alloy rods will not have β spots and improves the high-strength titanium alloy rods. The compositional uniformity and tensile strength of the titanium alloy rods ensure that the high-strength titanium alloy rods meet the strength requirements for additive manufacturing powder making.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metal material processing, and in particular relates to a method for preparing high-strength titanium alloy rods for powder-making by additive manufacturing. Background technique [0002] The weight of titanium metal is only about 45% of that of low-carbon steel. Due to its high specific strength and excellent corrosion resistance, it is widely used in various industrial fields. Titanium is often mixed with some other metals to further increase its strength. As early as 50 years ago, metallographers began to mix titanium with cheaper iron, vanadium, and aluminum metals to further increase the strength. After long-term research and application experiments by scientists, they have obtained good resistance The Ti-1Al-8V-5Fe alloy (hereinafter referred to as Ti185) with corrosion resistance, high specific strength and good fatigue resistance makes it widely used in aerospace, medical equipment and automobile...
