Abstract

In the invention, a specific wave-length laser is used for scanning radiation on the surface of the precipitation hardening stainless steel within a certain condition, so, making the surface of said steel to smelt. Low temperature shield gas is used for being cover onto the scanned area, for speeding-up the cooling. After that, the steel is subjected to heat treatment, so the hardness of the surface in a certain thickness is harder than that of the main body of the steel.

Description

A kind of hardening technology for precipitation hardening stainless steel laser surface
Technical field
The present invention relates to the metallic surface hardening technique, be specially a kind of precipitate hardened stainless steel face laser hardening technology, the surface hardening that is applicable to the 17-4PH PH Stainless Steel is strengthened, and also is applicable to the similarly raising of the surface hardness under the chemical constitution permanence condition of other and 17-4PH PH Stainless Steel.
Background technology
PH Stainless Steel, compare with common Martensite Stainless Steel, have higher strength and toughness, better weldability, cold-workability and solidity to corrosion, be widely used in being produced on the key components and parts that bears under the chemical corrosion environment than heavy load or shock load for this reason, yet because the precipitation hardening hardness level of this type of steel just contradicts with the toughness of steel, therefore, adopt common solid solution-aging precipitation method for curing to be difficult to obtain the part that strength and toughness is good, hardness is high again for this type of steel.Improve this steel surface hardness (being wear resistance) such as coating process such as nitrogenize, spraying built-up welding at present and adopt, can cause the solidity to corrosion of this type of steel and toughness obviously to reduce again, also can cause galvanic corrosion between coating and the base material.For example, the driving mechanism assembly of command bundle rods for nuclear reactors adopts the 17-4PH steel that the chemical property of satisfied anti-this kind environmental attack is not only arranged, and also can obtain satisfied shock resistance simultaneously.Yet the collision friction that is in contact with one another between the driven unit damages, and needs piece surface hardness ratio base material higher, obtains high wear resisting property thus.
This class PH Stainless Steel part surface hardness of 17-4PH is improved, adopt normally that nitrogenize, nitrogen are ion implantation, spraying and deposited coated with wear-resisting alloy, but sprayed coating easily peels off, ion implantation only several microns, too thin, need vacuum condition; Deposited coating comprises the built-up welding coating that adopts laser beam, electron beam, ionic fluid and various arc effect thermals source, all can form certain softened zone on base material.The existence of coating and softened zone reduces the intensity of workpiece, toughness, simultaneously, can make workpiece in containing boron ionic high-temperature water galvanic corrosion take place.
Summary of the invention
Main purpose of the present invention provides a kind of at precipitate hardened stainless steel face hardened laser processing.Adopt the laser surface rapidly solidification, from quenching technology, utilize the characteristics of laser rapid heating, molten bath rapid solidification, can material surface form oversaturated sosoloid and subsequently the auxiliary heat treating processes in precipitation separate out second phase, even dispersion distributes, thereby improves the surface hardness of material.Deformation when the invention solves nitriding treatment, change the perishable problem such as peel off of material surface chemical ingredients, hardened layer, realized the degree of depth and the hardness may command of laser surface hardening layer simultaneously.
Main technical schemes of the present invention is: the surface of cleaning PH Stainless Steel earlier; and it is carried out constant temperature handle; after waiting to reach the temperature of design; select a kind of light beam of hot spot to carry out laser treatment according to the treat surface geometrical configuration; treat surface is melted fast; cover the lasing district with low-temperature protection gas simultaneously, improve lasing district solidification rate, the thermal treatment that the consolidation district is carried out subsequently.
It is steel to be inserted in the common thermostat can reach constant temperature more than 0.5 hour that described constant temperature is handled, and the temperature that constant temperature is handled is a certain temperature in 25 ℃~-40 ℃.
The processing parameter of laser treatment is as follows:
During laser continuous irradiation, luminous power 〉=500W, power density 〉=10 4W/cm 2, sweep velocity 〉=3m/min, amount of lap 30~70%, irradiation hot spot Φ 0.5mm~Φ 3.0mm;

During enforcement, should be optimized collocation to the parameter of above scope according to kind, the workpiece size of precipitation hardening steel.
Described shielding gas is: nitrogen or argon gas, helium or carbonic acid gas, gas temperature are 25 ℃~-40 ℃, to improve the speed of cooling in lasing district.
Described thermal treatment: temperature is 200 ℃~680 ℃, and soaking time is 30min~6 hour, air cooling.
Described optical maser wavelength 1.06 μ m or 10.6 μ m..
Described PH Stainless Steel especially refers to 17-4PH.
By the 17-4PH steel that above method is handled, can reach following concrete technical indicator: the cementation zone average hardness can reach HV350~HV650, case depth 〉=0.15mm, and workpiece surface can be realized full surface hardening.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows:
1, the present invention adopts the laser of a certain specific wavelength, in certain environment the precipitate hardened stainless steel face is carried out scanning and irradiation, heat-treats at a certain temperature then, can obtain the hardened layer of certain thickness hardness apparently higher than matrix.This hardening process method is simple, and the upper layer chemical constitution does not change, and the erosion resistance of hardened layer and body material is the same, and the mechanical property of body material does not change.This processing method is used on nuclear reactor structure spare, the intensity of workpiece and good toughness, and abrasion-resistant surface performance height.Compare with traditional surfaces nitrided hardening process, the present invention does not have disbonding, and no galvanic corrosion has much higher wear-corrosion resistance
Problems such as deformation when 2, the invention solves precipitate hardened stainless steel face nitriding treatment, hardness is high by 20~30% than nitriding treatment, and simultaneously, the cementation zone metallurgical binding is not peeled off, environmental corrosion resisting performance height.In addition, hardening treatment is convenient, by data programing, can also realize the automatic processing of workpiece
