Definitions
- the invention relates to a coating of an aluminum / silicon composite material for producing wear-resistant, low-friction layers and to processes for producing the coating, both of which are used in industry.
- sockets of gray cast iron or hypereutectic aluminum-silicon can not be waived.
- the semi-finished bush is first inserted into the mold before pouring and then covered with liquid aluminum.
- the typical wind force of such cans is 2 to 3 mm.
- the inside of the liner is coarse and fine twisted, honed and exposed.
- the alloys used include copper, so that in particular intermetallic phases such as How Al 2 Cu are formed, which are required for the short-chipping processing of the layer surface. The use of these copper-containing alloys proves to be particularly problematic in connection with certain fuels.
- this bushing solution is associated with constructive, manufacturing and not least economic disadvantages such as limited adhesion of the AlSi10 melt on the bush surface, elaborate handling and high price.
- the socket wall thickness affects the minimum cylinder spacing.
- the web width should be as low as possible, especially for future engines of small design, because it also determines the minimum external dimensions of the engine.
- Thermal spraying offers further possibilities of applying wear-resistant coatings to the cylinder wall of the crankcases.
- the basic principle of thermal spraying is that a fusible or teilschmelzbarer material is melted in a high-speed hot gas jet into small spray droplets and accelerated in the direction of the surface to be coated (DIN 32530). Upon impact, the spray droplets solidify on the relatively cold metal surface and form a layer layer by layer.
- the advantage of this coating technology compared to electro-deposition, chemical or physical vapor deposition is the high application rate, which makes it possible to economically coat a cylinder bore in a few minutes.
- the methods of thermal spraying differ according to the mode of production and the properties of the high-speed hot gas jet.
- High-speed flame spraying produces an acetylene-oxygen flame in which the spray particles are accelerated to supersonic speed and deformed on impact with the surface to be coated.
- the HVOF process has already been used for coating cylinder bores with an aluminum-bronze alloy (US Pat. No. 5,080,056) or an iron-aluminum composite (EP 0 607 779 A1), but produces excess heat, which is often only possible through additional, expensive cooling of the crankcase can be removed (US 5,271,967).
- gases such as argon, helium, nitrogen and / or hydrogen are transferred by an electric arc in a plasma state in which the powdery (EP 0 585 203 A1 and US 4,661,682) or wire-shaped (US Pat. No. 5,442,153) sprayed material is introduced laterally to be moderately accelerated and smelted compared to the HVOF.
- the spray particles are heated to a higher temperature than the HVOF, so that they are in a molten state upon impact with the substrate, which provides for an intimate, cohesive connection of the layer to the substrate.
- Powder plasma spraying has already been used to coat cylinder bores with an iron-based layer (US 3,991,240).
- the object of the invention is to develop a thermally sprayed, wear-resistant layer, in particular for engine construction in terms of wear resistance and lubricating oil consumption, while the risk of wear for the counter-component is reduced.
- the object is achieved with a coating having the features of claim 1 and with respect to the method with a method having the method steps of claim 4.
- a coating having the features of claim 1 and with respect to the method with a method having the method steps of claim 4.
- a heterogeneous layer structure of aluminum mixed crystal, embedded silicon particles or silicon primary precipitates is formed during the layered layer formation of the coating.
- the matrix may further comprise a hypereutectic aluminum / silicon alloy.
- the layer surface of a coating according to the invention can be processed in an economically short-chipping manner, which can presumably be attributed to the oxides which are finely distributed on the layer surface and preferably also within the coating.
- the coating has improved wear resistance.
- For producing the short-chipping and substantially copper-free aluminum / silicon layers by means of atmospheric thermal spraying is due to the good melting of the spray particles, the formation of finely divided oxides, their good adhesion to the substrate and the moderate heat transfer into the component atmospheric plasma spraying prefers.
- this method offers the possibility to perform custom coatings, so that can be dispensed with the surface finishing of the layer on the pre-turning.
- a coating is expedient which ensures good, in particular short-chipping, workability of its surface.
- this wear-resistant, short-span machinable coating can be used to coat crankcases, is in addition to the reduction of combustion residues by reducing lubricating oil consumption interest to use this for all different fuels worldwide, so the coating, especially when used for the cylinder surfaces of internal combustion engines is copper-free ,
- a cylinder surface can be coated in a die-cast engine block made of light metal such as aluminum or magnesium by means of a thermal spraying process, which on the previous usual but Complex liner solution can be dispensed with.
- the thickness of the actual, tribological running layer on the tribologically non-executable, but good to be cast and machined crankcase can be significantly reduced. It is, for example, with 0.1 to 0.2 mm less than 1/10 of the usual sleeve wall thickness today and therefore offers the opportunity to build much more compact engines.
- plasma spraying is used to produce the coating.
- this non-equilibrium method it is also possible to form microstructures which otherwise can not be represented metallurgically. Because of the high energy density and the large Parametervieliere the method z. B. almost defined oxides are formed in the layer structure, on the one hand carry a short-chipping processing of the layer surface and on the other hand, a significant contribution to the wear resistance of the layers.
- agglomerated spray powders it is also possible to add any desired foreign materials to the layer, including those which are distinct from the aluminum alloy different melting points such as hard metal or ceramic particles but also dry lubricants.
- the coating according to the invention can be integrated without changing the manufacturing equipment installed today in the series, which eliminates the costly production and handling of the cylinder liners and considerable amounts of material can be saved.
- the coating can be carried out at high application rates in particularly short cycle times, wherein the coating is very accurately applied to the cylinder wall of the crankcase and a fine surface quality is set.
- spray powders of copper-free aluminum / silicon alloys or aluminum / silicon composites were developed.
- two essentially copper-free aluminum / silicon alloy systems were selected as the wettable powder, an alloy A (see FIG. 1) for interaction, in particular with iron-coated pistons, and an alloy B (see FIG. 2) preferably being used for uncoated pistons.
- FIG. 1 shows a cross-section of the spherical spray particles made from the alloy A, from which the aluminum mixed-crystal structure and the Si primary vacancies can be clearly seen.
- the cut was etched to attack the aluminum mixed crystal and thus to clarify the microstructure.
- the microstructure consists of primary aluminum mixed-crystal dendrites in which the dendrite arms are enveloped by eutectic silicon.
- the size of the dendrite arms varies greatly, so that they can be resolved only conditionally.
- the variations in the fineness of the present structure comes, on the one hand, from the fluctuations in temperature and speed of individual melt droplets and, on the other hand, from the different nucleation during the solidification of different melt droplets.
- Such a fine structure characterizes thermally sprayed layers with respect to microstructures, which are obtained via powder-metallic routes, and is responsible for the good wear resistance of these layers.
- FIG. 2 shows a scanning electron micrograph of a plasma-sprayed layer, which was produced with the spray powder of alloy A.
- the layer made with the spray powder of Alloy A was honed and exposed mechanically. In the production of layers, narrow dimensional tolerances were observed, so that it was possible to dispense with rough and fine turning.
- intermetallic phases and pores are also recognizable, which hold back small amounts of oil during operation and which determine the formation of a thin film of oil on the surface of the cylinder surface.
- the agglomerated composite powders consist of fine silicon particles and fine, metallic particles of an aluminum-silicon alloy, which are bonded to each other by means of inorganic or organic binders, wherein the proportion of silicon particles 5 to 50% and the proportion of alloy particles is 50 to 95%.
- the silicon particles have a mean particle size of 0.1 to 10.0 microns, preferably about 5 microns.
- the metallic particles have an average particle size of 0.1 to 50.0 microns, preferably about 5 microns and consist of either alternatively employable hypoeutectic alloys C or D, or from both alternatively employable hypereutectic alloys E or F.
- a cylinder running surface of a cylinder bore assumes that the casting of the Leichmetallblocks done in the usual way in die-casting, but without the inserted into the mold cylinder liners.
- the interior of the cylinder bore of the crankcase is then coarsely pre-turned in one operation to ensure the required shape and position tolerances. Subsequently, the aluminum-silicon layer is applied.
- the coating operation may be carried out either in the form of inserting and axially moving into the bore a suitable commercially available internal burner rotating about the center axis of the cylinder bore or a non-rotating burner in the cylinder bore of the rotating crankcase and along the central axis of the cylinder bore is guided to spray the layer on the cylinder wall at almost röch angle.
- a suitable commercially available internal burner rotating about the center axis of the cylinder bore or a non-rotating burner in the cylinder bore of the rotating crankcase and along the central axis of the cylinder bore is guided to spray the layer on the cylinder wall at almost röch angle.
- the latter is procedurally simpler and safer, because the supply of the necessary media such as electrical energy, cooling water, primary and secondary gas and spray powder by a rotating unit is problematic.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Beschichtung aus einem Aluminium/Silizium Verbundwerkstoff zur Herstellung von verschleißfesten, reibarmen Schichten sowie Verfahren zur Herstellung der Beschichtung, wie beides in der Industrie verwendet wird.The invention relates to a coating of an aluminum / silicon composite material for producing wear-resistant, low-friction layers and to processes for producing the coating, both of which are used in industry.
Im Automobilbau werden zur Zeit nach und nach die meisten der heute noch dominierenden Graugußkurbelgehäuse von Hubkolbenmaschinen - ihr Anteil lag 1994 in Deutschland noch bei beherrschenden 96%, europaweit bei 82%- durch solche aus Leichtmetallen verdrängt, um das Kraftfahrzeuggesamtgewicht zu verringern und damit die Kraftstoff ausnützung zu verbessern. Zur Herstellung von Kurbelgehäusen aus Leichtmetall wird sich aus wirtschaftlichen und technischen Gründen zunächst das Druckgießen von niedrig legiertem Aluminium wie AlSi10 qualifizieren. Solche Legierungen zeigen im Gegensatz zum im Motorenbau etablierten aber erheblich aufwendigeren atmosphärischen Guß von übereutektischen Aluminium-Silizium-Legierungen wie Alusil (Al-Sil7) ein unbefriedigendes Reibungs- und Verschleißverhalten im Kontakt mit Aluminium-Kolben und Kolbenringen und sind daher als Reibpartner ungeeignet.In the automotive industry, most of the still prevalent gray cast crankcases of reciprocating engines - their share was still dominant in Germany in 1994 at 96%, Europe at 82% - displaced by those made of light metals to reduce the gross vehicle weight and thus the fuel to improve utilization. For the production of crankcases made of light metal, for economic and technical reasons, the die casting of low alloyed aluminum such as AlSi10 will first qualify. Such alloys, in contrast to established in the engine but considerably more expensive atmospheric casting of hypereutectic aluminum-silicon alloys such as Alusil (Al-Sil7) unsatisfactory friction and wear behavior in contact with aluminum piston and piston rings and are therefore unsuitable as a friction partner.
Daher kann für künftige Motoren auf das Eingießen von tribologisch geeigneten Buchsen aus Grauguß oder übereutektischem Aluminium-Silizium nicht verzichtet werden. Zur Herstellung dieser Buchsen werden z. B. nach DE 44 38 550 A1 Rohlinge im bekannten Ospray-Verfahren hergestellt und nachträglich mechanisch kompaktiert. Die halbfertige Buchse wird vor dem Gießen erst in die Gießform eingelegt und dann mit flüssigem Aluminium umgossen. Die typische Windstärke solcher Büchsen liegt bei 2 bis 3 mm. Anschließend wird das Innere der Laufbüchse grob- und feingedreht, gehont und freigelegt. Die verwendeten Legierungen beinhalten Kupfer, damit insbesondere intermetallische Phasen wie wie Al2Cu gebildet werden, die für die kurzspanende Bearbeitung der Schichtoberfläche erforderlich sind. Der Einsatz dieser Kupfer-haltigen Legierungen erweist sich in Verbindung mit bestimmten Kraftstoffen besonders problematisch.Therefore, for future engines on the pouring tribologically suitable sockets of gray cast iron or hypereutectic aluminum-silicon can not be waived. For the preparation of these sockets z. B. to DE 44 38 550 A1 blanks produced in the known Ospray process and subsequently mechanically compacted. The semi-finished bush is first inserted into the mold before pouring and then covered with liquid aluminum. The typical wind force of such cans is 2 to 3 mm. Subsequently, the inside of the liner is coarse and fine twisted, honed and exposed. The alloys used include copper, so that in particular intermetallic phases such as How Al 2 Cu are formed, which are required for the short-chipping processing of the layer surface. The use of these copper-containing alloys proves to be particularly problematic in connection with certain fuels.
Die nach der DE 43 28 619 C2 und EP 0 411 577 B1 sprühkompaktierten Blöcke werden zwar mit Kupfer-freien Aluminium/Silizium Legierungen hergestellt, fanden jedoch bis heute keinen Einsatz als Zylinderlaufbuchse, denn die Oberfläche der Zylinderlaufbuchsen lassen sich nicht kurzspanend bearbeiten und stellen damit eine wirtschaftlich nicht vertretbare Alternative dar.Although the blocks spray-compacted according to DE 43 28 619 C2 and EP 0 411 577 B1 are indeed produced with copper-free aluminum / silicon alloys, they have hitherto not been used as cylinder liners, because the surface of the cylinder liners can not be machined with a short chip and are thus produced an economically unacceptable alternative dar.
Darüberhinaus ist diese Buchsenlösung mit konstruktiven, fertigungstechnischen und nicht zuletzt wirtschaftlichen Nachteilen wie begrenzte Haftung der AlSi10-Schmelze an der Buchsenoberfläche, aufwendige Handhabung und hoher Preis gebunden. Dazu beeinflußt die Buchsenwandstärke den minimalen Zylinderabstand. Die Stegbreite soll, insbesondere bei zukünftigen Motoren kleiner Bauart, so gering wie möglich sein, weil sie die Mindestaußenabmessungen des Motors mitbestimmt.Moreover, this bushing solution is associated with constructive, manufacturing and not least economic disadvantages such as limited adhesion of the AlSi10 melt on the bush surface, elaborate handling and high price. For this, the socket wall thickness affects the minimum cylinder spacing. The web width should be as low as possible, especially for future engines of small design, because it also determines the minimum external dimensions of the engine.
Das thermische Spritzen bietet weitere Möglichkeiten, verschleißfeste Beschichtungen auf die Zylinderlaufwand der Kurbelgehäusen aufzubringen. Das Grundprinzip des thermischen Spritzens besteht darin, daß ein schmelzbarer bzw. teilschmelzbarer Werkstoff in einem Hochgeschwindigkeit-Heißgasstrahl zu kleinen Spritztröpfchen aufgeschmolzen und in Richtung der zu beschichtetende Fläche beschleunigt wird (DIN 32530). Beim Aufprallen erstarren die Spritztröpfchen auf der relativ kalt gebliebenen Metalloberfläche und bilden Lage für Lage eine Schicht. Vorteil dieser Beschichtungstechnik gegenüber der E-lektroabscheidung, chemischen oder physikalischen Gasphasenabscheidung ist die hohe Auftragsrate, die es ermöglichen, eine Zylinderbohrung in wenigen Minuten wirtschaftlich zu beschichten. Die Verfahren des thermischen Spritzens unterscheiden sich nach der Erzeugungsart und den Eigenschaften des Hochgeschwindigkeit-Heißgasstrahles.Thermal spraying offers further possibilities of applying wear-resistant coatings to the cylinder wall of the crankcases. The basic principle of thermal spraying is that a fusible or teilschmelzbarer material is melted in a high-speed hot gas jet into small spray droplets and accelerated in the direction of the surface to be coated (DIN 32530). Upon impact, the spray droplets solidify on the relatively cold metal surface and form a layer layer by layer. The advantage of this coating technology compared to electro-deposition, chemical or physical vapor deposition is the high application rate, which makes it possible to economically coat a cylinder bore in a few minutes. The methods of thermal spraying differ according to the mode of production and the properties of the high-speed hot gas jet.
Beim Hochgeschwindigkeit-Flammspritzen (HVOF) wird eine Acetylen-Sauerstoff-Flamme erzeugt, in der die Spritzteilchen auf Überschallgeschwindigkeit beschleunigt und beim Aufprall an der zu beschichtenden Oberfläche deformiert werden. Das HVOF-Verfahren wurde zur Beschichtung von Zylinderbohrungen mit einer Aluminium-Bronze-Legierung (US 5,080,056) oder einem Eisen-Aluminium-Verbundwerkstoff (EP 0 607 779 A1) bereits verwendet, produziert jedoch überschüssige Wärme, die häufig nur durch zusätzliche, aufwendige Kühlung des Kurbelgehäuses abgeführt werden kann (US 5,271,967). Beim Plasmaspritzen werden Gase wie Argon, Helium, Stickstoff und/oder Wasserstoff durch einen elektrischen Lichtbogen in einem Plasmazustand überführt, in dem das pulverförmige (EP 0 585 203 A1 und US 4,661,682) oder drahtförmige (US 5,442,153) Spritzgut seitlich eingebracht wird, um dort umgelenkt, im Vergleich zum HVOF mäßig beschleunigt und aufgeschmlozen zu werden. Hier werden die Spritzteilchen auf eine höhere Temperatur als beim HVOF erhitzt, so daß sie sich beim Aufprallen auf das Substrat in einem geschmolzenen Zustand befinden, der für eine innige, stoffschlüssige Verbindung der Schicht zum Substrat sorgt. Das Pulver-Plasmaspritzen wurde zur Beschichtung von Zylinderbohrungen mit einer Schicht auf Eisen-Basis bereits angewandt (US 3,991,240). Das Draht-Plasmaspritzen wurde zur Beschichtung von Zylinderbohrungen mit einem AISI 1045-Stahl verwendet (DE 195 08 687). Die Anstrengungen für den Ersatz der Zylinderlaufbuchsen aus Grauguß durch solche aus übereutektischem Aluminium/Silizium deuten jedoch darauf hin, daß eine Zylinderlauffläche auf Eisen-Basis den technischen und tribologischen Anforderungen an modernen Hubkolbenmaschinen nicht genügen kann.High-speed flame spraying (HVOF) produces an acetylene-oxygen flame in which the spray particles are accelerated to supersonic speed and deformed on impact with the surface to be coated. The HVOF process has already been used for coating cylinder bores with an aluminum-bronze alloy (US Pat. No. 5,080,056) or an iron-aluminum composite (EP 0 607 779 A1), but produces excess heat, which is often only possible through additional, expensive cooling of the crankcase can be removed (US 5,271,967). In plasma spraying, gases such as argon, helium, nitrogen and / or hydrogen are transferred by an electric arc in a plasma state in which the powdery (EP 0 585 203 A1 and US 4,661,682) or wire-shaped (US Pat. No. 5,442,153) sprayed material is introduced laterally to be moderately accelerated and smelted compared to the HVOF. Here, the spray particles are heated to a higher temperature than the HVOF, so that they are in a molten state upon impact with the substrate, which provides for an intimate, cohesive connection of the layer to the substrate. Powder plasma spraying has already been used to coat cylinder bores with an iron-based layer (US 3,991,240). The wire plasma spraying was used to coat cylinder bores with an AISI 1045 steel (DE 195 08 687). However, the efforts to replace the cylinder liners made of gray cast iron by those of hypereutectic aluminum / silicon indicate that an iron-based cylinder surface can not meet the technical and tribological requirements of modern reciprocating engines.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine thermisch gespritzte, verschleißbeständige Schicht insbesondere für den Motorbau im Hinblick auf Verschleißbeständigkeit und Schmierölverbrauch zu entwickeln, wobei gleichwohl die Verschleißgefahr für die Gegenkomponente verringert wird.The object of the invention is to develop a thermally sprayed, wear-resistant layer, in particular for engine construction in terms of wear resistance and lubricating oil consumption, while the risk of wear for the counter-component is reduced.
Die Aufgabe wird bei einer Beschichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 und bzgl. des Verfahrens mit einem Verfahren mit den Verfahrensschritten des Anspruchs 4 gelöst. Durch die Verwendung von speziellen im wesentlichen Kupfer-freien Aluminium/Silizium-Spritzpulvern für die Aufbringung der erfindungsgemäßen Beschichtung mittels atmosphärischem, thermischem Spritzverfahren entsteht während der lagenartigen Schichtbildung der Beschichtung ein heterogenes Schichtgefüge aus Aluminium-Mischkristall, eingebetteten Silizium-Partikeln oder Silizium-Primärausscheidungen, die auch nebeneinander vorliegen können, intermetallischen Phasen wie Mg2Si und extrem fein verteilten Oxiden, wobei die Bildung und die Verteilung der Oxide ausschließlich auf die Nichtgleichgewichtseigenschaften der atmosphärischen, thermischen Spritzverfahren zurückzuführen ist. Die Matrix kann ferner eine übereutektische Aluminium/Silizium-Legierung aufweisen. Überraschenderweise läßt sich die Schichtoberfläche einer erfindungsgemäßen Beschichtung trotz der Abwesenheit von Kupfer wirtschaftlich kurzspanend bearbeiten, was vermutlich auf die auf der Schichtoberfläche und vorzugsweise auch innerhalb der Beschichtung fein verteilten Oxide zurückführen läßt. Außerdem weist die Beschichtung eine verbesserte Verschleißfestigkeit auf.
Zur Herstellung der kurzspanend bearbeitbaren und im wesentlichen Kupfer-freien Aluminium/Silizium-Schichten mittels atmosphärischem thermischem Spritzen wird aufgrund der guten Aufschmelzung der Spritzpartikel, der Bildung von fein verteilten Oxiden, deren guter Haftung auf dem Substrat und der mäßigen Wärmeübertragung ins Bauteil das atmosphärische Plasmaspritzen bevorzugt. Darüber hinaus bietet dieses Verfahren die Möglichkeit, Maßbeschichtungen durchzuführen, so daß bei der Oberflächenbearbeitung der Schicht auf das Vordrehen verzichtet werden kann.
Aus wirtschaftlichen und technischen Gründen ist eine Beschichtung zweckmäßig, die eine gute, insbesondere kurzspanende Bearbeitbarkeit ihrer Oberfläche gewährleistet. Damit diese verschleißbeständige, kurzspanend bearbeitbare Beschichtung zur Beschichtung von Kurbelgehäusen verwendet werden kann, steht neben der Verringerung von Verbrennungsrückständen durch Senkung Schmierölverbrauchs das Interesse, diese für alle unterschiedlichen Kraftstoffe weltweit einsetzen zu können, weshalb die Beschichtung, insbesondere bei der Verwendung für die Zylinderlaufflächen von Brennkraftmaschinen Kupfer-frei ist.The object is achieved with a coating having the features of claim 1 and with respect to the method with a method having the method steps of claim 4. Through the use of special essentially copper-free aluminum / silicon spray powders for the application of the coating according to the invention by means of atmospheric, thermal spraying, a heterogeneous layer structure of aluminum mixed crystal, embedded silicon particles or silicon primary precipitates is formed during the layered layer formation of the coating. which may also be present side by side, intermetallic phases such as Mg 2 Si and extremely finely divided oxides, the formation and distribution of the oxides being solely due to the non-equilibrium properties of atmospheric thermal spray processes. The matrix may further comprise a hypereutectic aluminum / silicon alloy. Surprisingly, in spite of the absence of copper, the layer surface of a coating according to the invention can be processed in an economically short-chipping manner, which can presumably be attributed to the oxides which are finely distributed on the layer surface and preferably also within the coating. In addition, the coating has improved wear resistance.
For producing the short-chipping and substantially copper-free aluminum / silicon layers by means of atmospheric thermal spraying is due to the good melting of the spray particles, the formation of finely divided oxides, their good adhesion to the substrate and the moderate heat transfer into the component atmospheric plasma spraying prefers. In addition, this method offers the possibility to perform custom coatings, so that can be dispensed with the surface finishing of the layer on the pre-turning.
For economic and technical reasons, a coating is expedient which ensures good, in particular short-chipping, workability of its surface. For this wear-resistant, short-span machinable coating can be used to coat crankcases, is in addition to the reduction of combustion residues by reducing lubricating oil consumption interest to use this for all different fuels worldwide, so the coating, especially when used for the cylinder surfaces of internal combustion engines is copper-free ,
Ferner ist es auch von Vorteil, daß mit der erfindungsgemäßen (verschleißfesten Aluminium-Silizium-) Beschichtung nach einem Druckgußvorgang bspw. eine Zylinderlauffläche in einem druckgußgegossenen Motorblock aus Leichtmetall wie Aluminium oder Magnesium mittels eines thermischen Spritzverfahrens beschichtet werden kann, wodurch auf die bisherige übliche aber aufwendige Laufbuchsenlösung verzichtet werden kann. Auch kann die Dicke der eigentlichen, tribologischen Laufschicht auf dem tribologisch nicht lauffähigen, aber gut zu gießenden und zu bearbeitenden Kurbelgehäuse erheblich reduziert werden. Sie beträgt bspw. mit 0,1 bis 0,2 mm weniger als 1/10 der heute üblichen Büchsenwandstärke und bietet daher die Möglichkeit, deutlich kompaktere Motoren zu bauen.Furthermore, it is also advantageous that with the inventive (wear-resistant aluminum-silicon) coating after a diecasting process, for example, a cylinder surface can be coated in a die-cast engine block made of light metal such as aluminum or magnesium by means of a thermal spraying process, which on the previous usual but Complex liner solution can be dispensed with. Also, the thickness of the actual, tribological running layer on the tribologically non-executable, but good to be cast and machined crankcase can be significantly reduced. It is, for example, with 0.1 to 0.2 mm less than 1/10 of the usual sleeve wall thickness today and therefore offers the opportunity to build much more compact engines.
Zweckmäßigerweise wird zur Herstellung der Beschichtung das Plasmaspritzen verwendet. Mit diesem Nichtgleichgewichtsverfahren lassen sich auch Gefügestrukturen bilden, die sonst metallurgisch nicht darstellbar sind. Wegen der hohen Energiedichte und der großen Parametervielzahl des Verfahrens können z. B. nahezu definiert Oxide in dem Schichtgefüge gebildet werden, die zum einen eine kurzspanende Bearbeitung der Schichtoberfläche und zum anderen einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur Verschleißbeständigkeit der Schichten tragen. Durch die Verwendung von agglomerierten Spritzpulvern lassen sich zudem beliebige Fremdmaterialien der Schicht beifügen, auch solche mit sich deutlich von der Aluminium-Legierung unterscheidenden Schmelzpunkten wie Hartmetall- oder Keramikpartikel aber auch Trockenschmierstoffen.Expediently, plasma spraying is used to produce the coating. With this non-equilibrium method, it is also possible to form microstructures which otherwise can not be represented metallurgically. Because of the high energy density and the large Parametervielzahl the method z. B. almost defined oxides are formed in the layer structure, on the one hand carry a short-chipping processing of the layer surface and on the other hand, a significant contribution to the wear resistance of the layers. By using agglomerated spray powders, it is also possible to add any desired foreign materials to the layer, including those which are distinct from the aluminum alloy different melting points such as hard metal or ceramic particles but also dry lubricants.
Günstigerweise kann die erfindungsgemäßen Beschichtung ohne Veränderung der heute installierten Fertigungseinrichtungen in die Serie zu integriert werden, wodurch die kostenspielige Fertigung und Handhabung der Zylinderlaufbuchsen entfallen und erhebliche Mengen an Material eingespart werden können. Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren kann die Beschichtung bei hohen Auftragsraten in besonders kurzen Taktzeiten erfolgen, wobei die Beschichtung sehr formgenau auf die Zylinderlaufwand des Kurbelgehäuses aufgebracht und eine feine Oberflächengüte dabei eingestellt wird. Durch diese Maßnahmen entfallen aufwendige Nachbearbeitungsschritte wie bspw. Vordrehen, und möglicherweise sogar auch Feindrehen entfallen, wodurch die Fertigungskosten deutlich reduziert sind.Conveniently, the coating according to the invention can be integrated without changing the manufacturing equipment installed today in the series, which eliminates the costly production and handling of the cylinder liners and considerable amounts of material can be saved. With the method according to the invention, the coating can be carried out at high application rates in particularly short cycle times, wherein the coating is very accurately applied to the cylinder wall of the crankcase and a fine surface quality is set. These measures eliminates the need for elaborate reworking steps such as, for example, pre-turning, and possibly even even fine turning, thereby significantly reducing the manufacturing costs.

In Figur 1 ist eine Schliffaufnahme der sphärischen Spritzpartikel aus der Legierung A dargestellt, aus der die Aluminium-Mischkristallstruktur und die Si-Primärauscheidungen deutlich ersichtlich sind. Der Schliff wurde geätzt, um den Aluminium-Mischkristall anzugreifen und somit die Gefügestruktur zu verdeutlichen. Neben den Silizium-Primärausscheidungen besteht das Gefüge aus primären Aluminiummischkristalldendriten, bei denen die Dendritenarme von eutektischem Silizium umhüllt sind. Die Größe der Dendritenarme schwankt sehr, so daß sie nur bedingt aufgelöst werden können. Die Schwankungen in der Feinheit der vorliegendes Gefüge kommt zum einen von den Schwankungen in Temperatur und Geschwindigkeit einzelner Schmelztropfen und zum anderen von der unterschiedlichen Keimbildung bei der Erstarrung verschiedener Schmelztropfen. Ein solches feines Gefüge kennzeichnet thermisch gespritzte Schichten gegenüber Gefügestrukturen, die eine über pulvermetallische Routen erlangt werden und ist für die gute Verschleißbeständigkeit dieser Schichten verantwortlich.FIG. 1 shows a cross-section of the spherical spray particles made from the alloy A, from which the aluminum mixed-crystal structure and the Si primary vacancies can be clearly seen. The cut was etched to attack the aluminum mixed crystal and thus to clarify the microstructure. In addition to the silicon primary precipitations, the microstructure consists of primary aluminum mixed-crystal dendrites in which the dendrite arms are enveloped by eutectic silicon. The size of the dendrite arms varies greatly, so that they can be resolved only conditionally. The variations in the fineness of the present structure comes, on the one hand, from the fluctuations in temperature and speed of individual melt droplets and, on the other hand, from the different nucleation during the solidification of different melt droplets. Such a fine structure characterizes thermally sprayed layers with respect to microstructures, which are obtained via powder-metallic routes, and is responsible for the good wear resistance of these layers.
In Figur 2 ist eine Rasterelektronenmikroskopaufnahme einer plasmagespritzten Schicht abgebildet, die mit dem Spritzpulver der Legierung A hergestellt wurde. Die mit dem Spritzpulver der Legierung A hergestellte Schicht wurde gehont und mechanisch freigelegt. Bei der Schichtherstellung wurden enge Maßtoleranzen eingehalten, so daß auf dem Vor- und Feindrehen verzichtet werden konnte. Neben der homogenen Verteilung der Silizium-Primärausscheidungen sind ebenfalls intermetallische Phasen und Poren zu erkennen, die im Betrieb geringe Mengen an Öl zurückhalten und die die Bildung eines dünnen Ölfilms an der Oberfläche der Zylinderlauffläche mitbestimmen.2 shows a scanning electron micrograph of a plasma-sprayed layer, which was produced with the spray powder of alloy A. The layer made with the spray powder of Alloy A was honed and exposed mechanically. In the production of layers, narrow dimensional tolerances were observed, so that it was possible to dispense with rough and fine turning. In addition to the homogeneous distribution of the primary silicon effluents, intermetallic phases and pores are also recognizable, which hold back small amounts of oil during operation and which determine the formation of a thin film of oil on the surface of the cylinder surface.
Um den Anteil an groben Si-Partikel in der Schicht zu erhöhen, wurden Aluminium/Slizium-Verbundpulver entwickelt. Die agglomerierten Verbundpulver bestehen aus feinen Silizium-Partikeln und feinen, metallischen Partikeln einer Aluminium-Silizium-Legierung, die miteinander anhand von anorganischen oder organischen Bindern gebunden sind, wobei der Anteil an Silizium-Partikeln 5 bis 50% und der Anteil an Legierungspartikeln 50 bis 95% beträgt. Die Silizium-Partikel haben eine mittlere Korngröße von 0,1 bis 10,0 µm, vorzugsweise etwa 5µm. Die metallischen Partikel haben eine mittlere Partikelgröße von 0,1 bis 50,0 µm, vorzugsweise etwa 5µm und bestehen aus beiden alternativ einsetztbaren untereutektischen Legierungen C oder D, oder aus beiden alternativ einsetztbaren übereutektischen Legierungen E oder F. Durch die Verwendung von übereutektischen Legierungspartikeln wird der Anteil an Aluminium-Mischkristall im Schichtgefüge beibehalten, während die Bildung des Aluminium-Mischkristalls im Schichtgefüge durch die Verwendung von untereutektischen Aluminium/Silizium-Partikeln unterdrückt wird.In order to increase the proportion of coarse Si particles in the layer, aluminum / silicon composite powders have been developed. The agglomerated composite powders consist of fine silicon particles and fine, metallic particles of an aluminum-silicon alloy, which are bonded to each other by means of inorganic or organic binders, wherein the proportion of silicon particles 5 to 50% and the proportion of alloy particles is 50 to 95%. The silicon particles have a mean particle size of 0.1 to 10.0 microns, preferably about 5 microns. The metallic particles have an average particle size of 0.1 to 50.0 microns, preferably about 5 microns and consist of either alternatively employable hypoeutectic alloys C or D, or from both alternatively employable hypereutectic alloys E or F. By the use of hypereutectic alloy particles is the proportion of aluminum mixed crystal in the layer structure is maintained while the formation of the aluminum mixed crystal in the layer structure is suppressed by the use of hypoeutectic aluminum / silicon particles.
Die erfindungsgemäße Beschichtung bspw. einer Zylinderlauffläche einer Zylinderbohrung setzt voraus, daß das Gießen des Leichmetallblocks auf die übliche Weise im Druckgußverfahren erfolgt, aber ohne die in die Gußform eingelegten Zylinderlaufbuchsen. Das Innere der Zylinderlaufbohrung des Kurbelgehäuses wird dann in einem Arbeitsgang grob vorgedreht, um die erforderlichen Form- und Lagetoleranzen zu gewährleisten. Anschließend wird die Aluminium-Silizium Schicht aufgebracht. Der Beschichtungsvorgang kann entweder in der Form durchgeführt werden, daß in die Bohrung ein geeigneter, kommerziell erhältlicher, um der Mittelachse der Zylinderbohrung rotierender Innenbrenner eingeführt und axial bewegt wird, oder ein nichtdrehender Brenner in der Zylinderbohrung des rotierenden Kurbelgehäuses eingeführt und entlang der Mittelachse der Zylinderbohrung geführt wird, um die Schicht im nahezu r0echten Winkel auf die Zylinderlaufwand aufzuspritzen. Letzteres ist verfahrenstechnisch einfacher und sicherer, denn die Zuführung der notwendigen Medien wie elektrischer Energie, Kühlwasser, Primär- und Sekundärgas und Spritzpulver durch ein rotierendes Aggregat ist problematisch.The coating according to the invention, for example, a cylinder running surface of a cylinder bore assumes that the casting of the Leichmetallblocks done in the usual way in die-casting, but without the inserted into the mold cylinder liners. The interior of the cylinder bore of the crankcase is then coarsely pre-turned in one operation to ensure the required shape and position tolerances. Subsequently, the aluminum-silicon layer is applied. The coating operation may be carried out either in the form of inserting and axially moving into the bore a suitable commercially available internal burner rotating about the center axis of the cylinder bore or a non-rotating burner in the cylinder bore of the rotating crankcase and along the central axis of the cylinder bore is guided to spray the layer on the cylinder wall at almost röch angle. The latter is procedurally simpler and safer, because the supply of the necessary media such as electrical energy, cooling water, primary and secondary gas and spray powder by a rotating unit is problematic.
