In order to solve the technical problems, the invention adopts the technical scheme that: a short-process preparation method of a TC4 titanium alloy large-size bar with a fine equiaxial structure is characterized by comprising the following steps:
step one, adopting a large-tonnage press to perform cogging forging on a TC4 titanium alloy ingot for 2-3 times under the condition that the initial forging temperature is 1000-1150 ℃, wherein the total forging ratio of each cogging forging is not less than 6.0, the final forging temperature is not less than 900 ℃, and air cooling to obtain a primary forging stock;

step three, adopting a large-tonnage precision forging machine to forge the intermediate forging stock obtained in the step two at the initial forging temperature of (T)β-60℃)~(TβCarrying out radial forging for one time under the condition of minus 30 ℃ to obtain a finished radial forged bar;
and step four, carrying out annealing heat treatment on the finished radial forged bar obtained in the step three to obtain the TC4 titanium alloy bar, wherein the annealing heat treatment specifically comprises the steps of preserving heat of the finished radial forged bar for 1-4 hours at the temperature of 700-800 ℃, and then carrying out air cooling, wherein the cross section diameter of the TC4 titanium alloy bar is 200-300 mm, the length of the TC4 titanium alloy bar is 5000-8000 mm, and the grade of the primary equiaxial α phase grain size in the TC4 titanium alloy bar is not lower than the 8-grade requirement in the GB/T6394-.
According to the invention, the TC4 titanium alloy ingot is subjected to cogging forging by adopting a large-tonnage press, the forging stock suitable for the large-tonnage press has larger weight, and the height-diameter ratio of the forging stock does not exceed 2.5 in order to avoid the occurrence of adverse phenomena such as folding, so that the cogging forging with large deformation amount is carried out by adopting the large-tonnage press, the original β crystal grains in the TC4 titanium alloy ingot structure are efficiently crushed, the TC4 titanium alloy ingot is not required to be cut and blanked while the forging penetration is ensured, the polishing loss is obviously reduced, and the yield and the production efficiency of the TC4 titanium alloy bar are favorably improved.
Then, the invention adopts a large-tonnage press to perform the forging on the primary forging stock near the top of the phase region α - β (T)β-30℃)~(TβThe method comprises the steps of sequentially carrying out near β forging modification and rapid cooling after forging at the temperature of-15 ℃ to obtain an intermediate forging blank, effectively crushing a primary strip α phase through near β forging modification, dynamically recrystallizing and spheroidizing the crushed strip α phase into α balls, wherein due to crushing deformation at the top of a α - β phase region, the α phase content is relatively low, further growth of the recrystallized α balls in the hot processing process is inhibited, the recrystallized α balls are kept as fine isometric α balls, and fine grain structures are favorably formed, and a large number of vacancies are introduced into the intermediate forging blank after rapid cooling after forging to provide energy for static recrystallization in the heating and heat preservation processes of subsequent heat times, so that the crystal grains of the single heat time are obviously improvedIn addition, because the weight of the primary forging stock is larger, the temperature drop in the hot working process is slower, the deformation heat can be effectively compensated, the deformation temperature in the preparation process of the intermediate forging stock is relatively constant or slightly reduced, and the process stability is good, but the cooling speed of the intermediate forging stock is slower, so that the microstructure grows up in the cooling process, and a fine equiaxial structure cannot be obtained, therefore, the growth of the microstructure in the cooling process is effectively inhibited by adopting the rapid cooling after forging, the generation of the fine equiaxial structure is further ensured, and the intermediate forging stock consisting of the fine equiaxial structure, a secondary needle-shaped α phase and a β matrix is obtained by adopting the process of large-tonnage near β forging and rapid cooling after forging.
