Definitions

  • the metal powder is fed to a jet mill and heated there in a chamber.
  • the heated metal powder particles are subjected to a collision to provide smooth and reduced metal powder particles. These are fed to an output and collected.
  • JP H03 130301 A describes a method for improving the surface quality of metal powder particles, in which the metal powder particles collide with each other, without plastic deformation of the metal powder particles occur.
  • articles PC KING, SH ZAHIRI, M. JAHEDI "Focused ion beam micro-dissection of cold-sprayed particles", ACTA MATER, Vol. 56, 4 September 2008, pages 5617-5626 , and KIM K ET AL: "Thermal Softening Effect on the Deposition Efficiency and Microstructure of Hot Sprayed Metallic Powder", SCRIPTA MATERIALIA, ELSEVIER, AMSTERDAM, NL, Vol. 60, No.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a method for processing steel powder consisting of a plurality of steel powder pellets, by means of which steel powder with non-spherical steel powder particles can be produced.
  • the process of the invention is provided as a starting material steel powder, which consists of a plurality of steel powder pellets whose diameter is in the range of 100 microns to 500 microns.
  • steel powder can be produced, for example, by the above-mentioned method.
  • a first step S1 heating of the steel powder pellets to a temperature at which the steel powder pellets are in the doughy state.
  • This heating of the steel powder pellets can be carried out using an induction process, by application of radiant heat or in a hot inert gas stream.
  • a collision of the steel powder pellets in the doughy state is brought about with a baffle body in order to obtain deformed steel powder particles.
  • This baffle may be a baffle that is at right angles or at another angle to the Steel powder bead stream runs.
  • This baffle plate may be formed propeller-shaped. Furthermore, can they are designed to be movable, for example, rotate or swiveled constantly.
  • the steel powder particles deformed by collision with the baffle plate are collected in a collecting vessel according to a subsequent step S3.
  • An advantageous embodiment is to transport the deformed steel powder particles by means of a conveyor belt in the collecting vessel, wherein the conveyor belt is disposed either between the baffle plate and the collecting vessel or wherein the conveyor belt itself serves as a baffle plate.
  • An alternative embodiment is to collide the steel powder pellets in the doughy state against each other to obtain deformed steel powder particles having a non-spherical surface.
  • step S4 After collecting the deformed steel powder particles in the collecting vessel, cooling of the deformed steel powder particles takes place in a step S4 until they are again in a solid state.
  • the steel powder particles provided by step S2 in the collecting vessel in which they are collected in accordance with step S3 may be subjected to another processing.
  • the resulting steel powder particles have, in contrast to the starting material on projections, edges and corners.
  • steel powder which consists of a plurality of such deformed steel powder particles, for producing a drilling tool made of steel is used with internal, helically extending cooling channels, wherein the steel powder is kneaded with a binder, the steel powder kneaded with the binder is passed through a press tool to produce a strand having internal, rectilinear cooling passages, which the
  • Pressing strand leaving each strand is cut to a desired length, the resulting blank is supported under support over its entire length of a rolling motion whose velocity varies linearly and steadily over the length of the body, so that the blank is twisted, and wherein the twisted
  • the blank is sintered and then provided on its outer shell with spiral flutes.
  • a first step S1 heating the steel powder pellets to a temperature at which the steel powder pellets are in the doughy state.
  • a subsequent step S1 / 2 the steel powder pellets in the doughy state are subjected to an acceleration.
  • This acceleration can be carried out by a magnetic field, by means of a spinning process or by means of a protective gas flow.
  • the accelerated, in doughy state steel powder pellets are subjected to a collision with a baffle in a subsequent step S2, as well as in the case of FIG. 1 explained method to be deformed.
  • the steel powder particles deformed by the collision are collected in a collecting vessel according to a subsequent step S3, where they cool according to a step S4 so that the steel powder particles finally are in a solid state.
  • steel powder consisting of a plurality of steel powder pellets is processed, so that steel powder is provided, which consists of a plurality of steel powder particles, which is not spherical are but have projections, corners and edges.
  • steel powder pellets located in the doughy state are accelerated before their collision process, steel powder pellets may shatter during the collision, so that a plurality of even smaller, deformed steel powder particles are formed from a steel powder pellet. This leads to a further improvement of the above-described and desired entanglement of the steel powder particles in the blank and thus to an even further dimensional stability of the blank.
