Description

Friction stir welding system and method based on phase change temperature control
Technical Field
The invention relates to friction stir welding, in particular to a friction stir welding system and a friction stir welding method, and belongs to the field of welding.
Background
Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a purely mechanical solid phase joining technique in which a pin is inserted into a joint of a workpiece to be welded by rotating a pin at a high speed, the pin being composed of a shoulder and a pin, and the pin is moved while rotating in the direction of the joint after the shoulder of the pin is brought into close contact with the workpiece. The violent friction between the stirring head and the workpiece makes the temperature of the welding zone rise rapidly, so that the metal near the stirring head is softened continuously and enters a viscoplastic state, and the materials in the welding zone are mixed with each other under the traction, stirring and extrusion of the shaft shoulder and the stirring head, and finally a compact welding seam is formed.
In the process of friction stir welding, the welded workpiece is in a solid state, the material in the stirring area is not melted, and the structure in the stirring area is dynamically recrystallized under the condition of high-temperature severe plastic deformation to obtain fine and uniform equiaxed crystals. A large body of literature indicates that friction stir welded joints with fine, uniform equiaxed grains have excellent tensile properties, fatigue properties, and superplasticity. Friction stir welding is a "green" welding method, and has been widely used in the fields of aviation, aerospace, shipbuilding, automotive and rail transportation. The advantages are mainly as follows: the welded workpiece is not melted in the stirring friction welding process, so that common welding defects in the traditional fusion welding, such as solidification cracks, air holes, alloy element burning loss and the like, can be avoided; the welding heat input is low, the residual stress of a welding seam area is small, the welding deformation is small, and the size of a workpiece to be welded is stable; during welding, no metal is required to be filled, no protective gas is consumed, and no arc light or smoke is generated, so that the friction stir welding is called as a green and environment-friendly welding method.
When the welding heat input is low and the heat conductivity coefficient of the alloy material is high, the crystal grains in the stirring area grow in time to form fine and uniform isometric crystals; however, for a metal alloy material with a certain content of alloy elements and a certain amount of second-phase particles, the plastic softening material is not easy to fill the weld joint cavity smoothly in the welding process, and the joint formability is reduced. For friction stir welding, the process window for obtaining a high-quality welded joint from the alloy is narrow, and when the welding speed is high, a well-formed welded joint is difficult to obtain.
The friction stir welding is similar to the common welding process, and a series of effects related to phase change can be generated when the metal material undergoes solid phase change in the temperature rising and falling process. For example: the martensite phase transformation of the steel material is often accompanied by volume increase and phase transformation superplasticity effect, when the temperature of the material is increased, the martensite phase is transformed into the austenite phase, and the plasticity and the toughness of the material are improved. Because martensite is a body-centered cubic structure, austenite is a face-centered cubic structure, and the density of martensite is lower than that of austenite, phase transformation brings about volume change, and austenite has better plasticity and toughness.
Obviously, the forming mechanism of the friction stir welding joint is undoubtedly related to the flowing behavior of plastic metal in the welding process, and the plasticity of the material is related to the solid phase change caused by the temperature change, so that before the friction stir welding, the plasticity of the material is improved, and the plastic softening material can be ensured to smoothly fill the weld joint cavity in the welding process, so that the quality of the welding joint is improved. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a friction stir welding system and method based on phase change temperature control.

The invention adopts the technical scheme that the second invention purpose is realized: a welding method of a phase-change temperature control-based friction stir welding system, the method comprising the steps of:
s1, presetting a temperature threshold value in the control center, and recording the temperature threshold value as TA

Further, the temperature threshold TABetween the solid phase transition temperature and the melting point of the material of the workpiece to be welded.
Solid-state phase transition: when the temperature and pressure of solid materials such as metal and ceramic are changed, the internal structure or structure of the solid materials changes, i.e. the solid materials are transformed from one phase state to another phase state, the transformation is called solid phase transformation, and the temperature at which the transformation occurs is called solid phase transformation temperature. Such as: when the workpiece to be welded is made of steel, the material is transformed from a martensite state to an austenite state along with the increase of the temperature, the structure of the material is transformed from a body-centered cubic structure to a face-centered cubic structure, and the material has better plasticity and toughness in the austenite state. The temperature at which the material is transformed from the martensite state to the austenite state is the solid state transformation temperature of the material of the workpiece to be welded.

Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
the welding system is based on the friction stir welding principle, and can control the friction stir process of materials to be carried out within a certain specific temperature range above the solid phase temperature by adding a front electric arc and temperature monitoring feedback, so that the phase change temperature control of the friction stir welding of workpieces to be welded is realized. When the welding system disclosed by the invention is used for welding, the plastic flow of materials is more sufficient and uniform in the welding process, the matching threshold value of the shaft shoulder of the stirring head and the materials can be reduced, the adjustable range of the friction stir welding parameters is expanded, and the friction stir welding difficulty under the conditions of low stirring speed and large welding speed is further reduced.
The welding method of the invention is that before the friction stir welding, the temperature of the material in the stirring area is heated and adjusted, the temperature of the material is controlled within a certain specific temperature range above the solid phase temperature, and the plasticity of the material is improved to ensure that the plastic softening material smoothly fills the weld joint cavity in the friction stir welding process, thereby improving the quality of the welding joint. The welding method of the invention reserves the advantages of solid state connection of friction stir welding, simultaneously, the plastic flow of the materials in the welding process is more sufficient and uniform, the welding defects common in the traditional fusion welding are avoided, and the protective gas is not consumed.
