Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing semi-finished products from a memory alloy according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a manufacturing process for semi-finished products made of ternary Ni / Ti / Cu alloys, which provides flawless, dense products.
  • a round bar was first cast from a ternary memory alloy of the following composition using customary methods.
  • the components were first cleaned in elementary form, dried and melted in a graphite crucible under vacuum together with an alloy premelted on the crucible bottom.
  • the melt was poured into a graphite mold, producing a cast ingot 20 mm in diameter and 140 mm in length.
  • the cast ingot was subjected to a homogenization annealing just below the solidus line, in the present case at a temperature of 900 ° C. for 24 hours under an argon atmosphere. From the cast and homogenized rod was cut off a piece and turned to a diameter of 18 mm and a length of 35 mm. This diameter was slightly below the inside diameter of the recipient of the extrusion press.
  • the workpiece was kept at a temperature of 700 ° C. for 10 minutes, a thin oxide layer being formed on the surface.
  • Boron nitride was used as the lubricant.
  • the extrusion was carried out isothermally at a temperature of 750 C under a punch force of 150 kN and a punch speed of 0.1 mm / s.
  • the strand obtained in this way had a diameter of 9 mm, which corresponds to a reduction ratio of 4: 1.
  • a press die was used as the tool, which had a conical surface with a 45 ° half opening angle and 4.5 mm axial length on the inlet side and a cylindrical part of 9 mm diameter and 5 mm axial length on the outlet side. There was a radius of 5 mm at the inlet of the conical part and a radius of 2 mm at the outlet.
  • the strand with a diameter of 9 mm (semi-finished product) was encapsulated in a steel tube with a wall thickness of 1 mm and hammered to a diameter of 3 mm at 750 ° C.
  • the steel jacket was then removed and the wire was drawn down cold in several steps to a diameter of 1 mm.
  • the cross-sectional decrease per step was 10% in each case.
  • the wire was annealed at 800 ° C for 15 minutes.
  • the finished wire was finally subjected to a soft annealing process at 900 ° C for 1 h in order to meet the structural requirements for optimal subsequent martensite formation.
  • composition of the memory alloy to which the present method for producing semifinished products is directed can basically be as follows:
  • the homogenization annealing of the cast ingot can be carried out for 1 to 200 h at temperatures which are 10 to 200 ° C. below the solidus line of the alloy.
  • Hot processing by extrusion can be carried out isothermally in the temperature range from 700 to 850 ° C with stamp speeds of 0.01 mm / s upwards.
  • the reduction ratio can be 4: 1 to 20: 1.
  • the stamper used should have a conical portion having preferably 45 0 half-opening angle, wherein the transition radius from the recipient in this part preferably 1 to 10 mm or 1 to 25% of the recipient diameter.
  • the corresponding transition radius at the outlet of the conical into the cylindrical part of the die should preferably also be 1 to 10 mm or 1 to 25% of the recipient diameter.
  • the cylindrical part of the die (outlet) should be longer in the axial direction than the conical part (inlet).
  • the tools used for isothermal extrusion can also have dimensions other than those mentioned above in practice, depending on the requirements. This applies above all to the design of the press die, the shape of which also depends to a certain extent on the profile to be created (whether round, triangular, square, rectangular, hollow, ribbon-shaped, etc.).
  • the surface oxidation process given in the example to facilitate the application of the lubricant can also be omitted and is not essential to the invention.
  • the method according to the invention enables the production of semi-finished products from the brittle Ni / Ti / Cu alloy, which is difficult to deform per se, even in the case of higher copper contents.
