Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for producing heat-resistant and wear-resistant molded parts, in particular engine components.
- engine components such as valve train and turbocharger components are subject to the highest demands with regard to heat resistance, temperature and wear resistance.
- rotationally symmetrical engine components that are subject to high temperatures, such as valve guides, bearing bushes, shaft seals, valve seat rings (VSR) and engine components for exhaust gas recirculation (EGR components) must also meet these requirements.
- VSR valve seat ring
- a high wear rate at the VSR leads to a loss of valve clearance and thus to leaks and loss of compression.
- the further development of internal combustion engines and thus the increase in power density and reduction in emissions are therefore limited, among other things, by the functionality of the tribological system valve / VSR.
- the main stresses in the valve / VSR tribological system are, for example, high relative movement and high surface pressure on the valve seat due to high combustion pressures from 200 to 250 bar, high thermal stress with temperatures at the valve seat of the valve seat ring of 300 to 500 ° C for highly stressed commercial vehicle and stationary engines and low solid lubrication when using alternative fuels and new exhaust gas treatment concepts. This results in extreme tribological stress on the valve and VSR components, which must be countered above all with appropriate material concepts.
- Relaxation is a thermally activated process that occurs under mechanical stress at high temperatures and leads to components relieving internal stresses.
- relaxation is the transformation of elastic strain into plastic creep strain with constant total strain.
- High compressive stresses occur in a VSR that is pressed into the cylinder head with a defined oversize, the so-called overlap.
- the VSR relieves these stresses by relaxation.
- the initially purely elastic stretch caused by the pressing is partially converted into plastic creep strain.
- the VSR shows less coverage after expansion. Consequently, valve seat rings must have sufficient relaxation resistance.
- Valve seat rings are also subject to corrosive stresses due to the application.
- the tribochemical load on VSR has been tightened as a result of the measures in the course of the new exhaust gas regulations.
- EGR exhaust gas recirculation
- Critical conditions do not occur at high loads, but at a standstill when the engine cools down. In Many commercial vehicle applications therefore require the use of corrosion-resistant VSR at least on the inlet side.
- valve seat rings which are formed by thermally sprayed layers of a Co or Co / Mo-based alloy and an arc wire spraying process with one or more metallic cored wires, the sheath of which contains the essential part of the Co to be deposited.
- the WO 2001/049437 A2 a powder-metallurgically produced sintered molded part for tribological parts in the automotive industry with high temperature and wear resistance, which consists of a powder mixture with molybdenum-phosphorus-carbon steel powder and at least one other, essentially phosphorus-free steel powder in a weight ratio of 5:95 to 60:40, carbon powder and at least one solid lubricant is available.
- the US2003 / 177866 discloses a method for manufacturing rigid dies from an Fe-based sintered material by manufacturing the sintered material by water atomization, drying and agglomeration with an organic binder, followed by pressing and sintering.
- VSR castings are mainly used in the commercial vehicle sector.
- Typical materials for medium to high loads are high-alloy, modified high-speed steels and high-alloy Fe-Cr steels.
- these materials generally no longer meet the highest demands in heavy commercial vehicle and stationary engines and operation with alternative fuels. This requires special alloys based on Ni and Co. These are characterized by high heat resistance, high temperature resistance and excellent wear properties. In addition, these materials show sufficient resistance to relaxation and corrosion.
- centrifugal casting is particularly suitable for large quantities.
- the production of high-strength Co or Ni-based materials by centrifugal casting is only possible to a limited extent or is generally uneconomical due to the difficult machinability.
- Sand casting is only suitable for small and medium quantities.
- the individual post-processing steps are the same in centrifugal and single casting. In both cases, the VSR must be completely machined to remove the cast skin.
- the EP 1 536 027 B1 a sintered body made of a raw or granular powder with a specific gravity of 97% or more. According to the invention, this is a powder with an average grain size of 8.5 ⁇ m or less provided. Since the average grain size of the high powder for the filtering is comparatively small according to the information in the publication, the filtering diffusion rate is improved and the quality of the filtering is markedly increased.
- the invention has for its object to provide a method for producing heat-resistant and wear-resistant molded parts, in particular engine components, which avoids the above-mentioned disadvantages in the prior art.
- engine components for heavy-duty commercial vehicle and stationary engine applications are to be created, which have sufficient wear resistance, low part costs, and good machinability on the production lines of the end customers.
- heat-resistant and wear-resistant molded parts produced using the method are to be specified.
- a water-atomized sintered material based on Fe or cobas which has a grain size of> 10 ⁇ m, preferably of> 30 ⁇ m and particularly preferably of> 50 ⁇ m, and this material according to the further process steps according to claim 1 or to treat claim 2.
- the present invention accordingly turns away from the prior art, which requires, in order to achieve high densities, in particular of> 97% grain size for the sinter powder of ⁇ 8.5 ⁇ m. According to the invention, therefore, contrary to the prior art, increasing the grain sizes to> 10 ⁇ m, preferably to> 30 ⁇ m and particularly preferably to> 50 ⁇ m in conjunction with water atomization leads to comparable high densities of the sintered bodies.
- an Fe- or Co-based sintered material with an average grain size of> 10 ⁇ m, preferably of> 30 ⁇ m and particularly preferably of> 50 ⁇ m is produced by water atomization, i.e.
- high pressure water is used to break up the molten metal jet; the agglomeration of the sintered material then takes place by spray drying to 10 to 400 ⁇ m with an organic binder, solid lubricants and / or hard phases optionally being added; then a cold isostatic pressing of the sintered material takes place with a pressing pressure of 400 to 900 MPa to densities of 5 to 7 g / ccm; then the green compacts are sintered at temperatures of 1,000 to 1,350 ° C and finally a post-processing step.
- a cobalt-based alloy with the following composition in% by weight is used as the sintered material: max. 5.0 Fe; Max. 0.7 C; 15.0 - 25.0 Mo; 14.0-23.0 Cr; 0.7 - 1.4 Si; Balance Co; and max. 3.0 unavoidable impurities.
- An N2-H2 atmosphere with a mixing ratio of approx. 80 - 20% or vacuum is used as the protective atmosphere.
- the temperatures during sintering were found to be between 1,000 to 1,300 ° C, with an Fe-based sintered material in the lower temperature range, i.e. from 1,000 to 1,200 ° C and a Co-based material in the upper temperature range, i.e. 1,100 to 1,300 ° C must be sintered.
- the Fe or Co-based sintered material is produced by a so-called water atomization.
- the powder metallurgical manufacturing process makes it possible to produce high-precision molded parts that require fewer post-processing steps compared to conventional casting. In addition, materials with special structural properties can be manufactured. In the context of the invention, it was found that the components produced have an improved structural structure and distribution of the hard phases compared to the prior art.
- the structure of the alloys according to the invention is composed of a matrix with a particle size of 5-10 ⁇ m, in which evenly finely distributed carbides or intermetallic phases with a grain size of likewise 5-10 ⁇ m and possibly solid lubricants, such as MoS2, are stored are.
- heterogeneous structure is very promising from a tribological point of view: For example, heterogeneous structures with hard carbides or intermetallic phases have proven themselves against the wear mechanisms of adhesion, surface disruption and abrasion (see Sommer, Heinz, & Schöfer, 2011).
- Typical powder metallurgically produced molded parts for engine components are based on iron and fast-working steel base powders and also have a heterogeneous structure with embedded hard phases and solid lubricants.
- inlet components with low to medium requirements can be made from materials with open porosity.
- the porosity is usually filled with Cu via an infiltration process. This reduces the susceptibility to oxidation and increases the thermal conductivity.
- Various attempts to manufacture the above-described high-alloy Fe base and in particular Co-base alloys, some of which have sufficient corrosion resistance, using conventional powder metallurgy manufacturing processes have failed. It was found that the materials described can only be manufactured using the manufacturing process described.
- the invention is based on the general idea of combining the advantages of powder metallurgy with the advantages of casting technology, with the aim of economically producing highly wear-resistant engine components, in particular valve train and turbocharger components for use in high-temperature applications or for the powder-metallurgical production of high-alloy alloys. and especially co-based materials.
- the invention is based on the knowledge that the powder-metallurgical manufacture of engine components, such as valve seat rings, for high-temperature applications is characterized by a low need for reworking, high cost efficiency and resource-saving manufacture.
- Various tests have shown that classic cast materials with an equivalent property profile can only be produced using the manufacturing process described. It was found that materials with very heterogeneous structures and positive wear properties can be manufactured
- a post-processing step means turning (outside and inside), face grinding, cylindrical grinding and slide grinding. Which or which post-processing step (s) are used depends on the particular engine component to be manufactured.
- the need for post-processing is significantly reduced in the method according to the invention in comparison to conventional casting technology, which enables the economical production of high-alloyed Fe and in particular Co-based materials.
- solid lubricants that are resistant up to temperatures of 1,100 ° C, possibly with a very high proportion, can be added.
- the solid lubricants and possibly hard phases are designed as a heterogeneous structure and evenly distributed in the molded part.
- MoS2 molybdenum disulfide
- MnS manganese sulfide
- CaF calcium fluoride
- the admixture of the solid lubricants leads on the one hand to increased wear resistance in dry environments as found in the internal combustion engine and on the other hand to improved machinability in the finishing process of the engine manufacturer.
- Hard materials for example intermetallic phases or ferro-molybdenum (FeMo), can also be added.
- the hard phases have a grain size of at least 50 to max. 500 ⁇ m, preferably from 150 ⁇ m to 300 ⁇ m.
- the densely sintered base materials can also contain hard, fine-grained and finely divided carbides as well as other heterogeneously distributed carbides. This leads to increased wear resistance and relaxation resistance, since grain boundary sliding and material deformation are hindered.
- a sintered molded part produced according to the invention has increased corrosion resistance in comparison to conventional sintered materials with open or Cu-filled pores.
- components for internal combustion engines can be economically produced from materials which are known only in terms of casting technology. This opens up wear-related and economic advantages. To date, no manufacturing process is known with which such material concepts can be implemented with the same high level of efficiency.
- the parameters for the further processing of the granulated sintered material in accordance with conventional powder metallurgical manufacturing processes can be determined by a small number of tests, since the person skilled in the art is familiar with the effects which occur in principle.
- the heat-resistant and wear-resistant molded parts, in particular engine components, produced by the method according to the invention have a wide field of application.
- the main application is in the area of engine components that have a dense, heterogeneous structure and evenly distributed solid lubricants and hard phases, and / or in the area of components that have high corrosion resistance due to a dense structure.
- These include, in particular, valve seat rings for highly loaded internal combustion engines, in particular commercial vehicle and stationary engines and bearing bushes for turbochargers and other components of the exhaust system, which must have excellent tribological properties with minimal solid lubrication; they also have to withstand high temperatures and pressures of> 210 bar.

- the molded part is particularly suitable for high-temperature applications and has a high resistance to wear, relaxation and corrosion. It was demonstrated on a relaxation test bench that the PLS 860 material has improved relaxation resistance compared to the PL 860 material. This is also evident from the structure of the two materials, which is shown by the micrographs of the Fig. 3 and 4 are shown. This shows that the material has a heterogeneous structure with finely distributed hard phases. On the one hand, this prevents grain boundary sliding. Experience has shown that the structure also has an extremely positive effect on wear resistance.
- Example 3 describes the production according to the invention of a material which is known by casting technology and is known under the name PL 26.
- the molded part is particularly suitable for high temperature applications and has a high resistance to wear, relaxation and corrosion.

- the machinability of the PLS 840 material is significantly improved compared to the PL 840.
- the production of the PLS 840 material is significantly increased compared to its casting counterpart
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von warmbeständigen und verschleißfesten Formteilen, insbesondere Motorkomponenten.The invention relates to a method for producing heat-resistant and wear-resistant molded parts, in particular engine components.
Grundsätzlich besteht immer Interesse an warmbeständigen und verschleißfesten Formteilen. Insbesondere an Motorkomponenten, wie beispielsweise Ventiltriebs- und Turboladerkomponenten, werden höchste Anforderungen bezüglich Warmfestigkeit, Temperatur- und Verschleißbeständigkeit gestellt. Aber auch hochtemperaturbeanspruchte, rotationssymmetrische Motorkomponenten, wie Ventilführungen, Lagerbuchsen, Wellendichtringe, Ventilsitzringe (VSR) und Motorkomponenten für die Abgasrückführung (AGR-Komponenten) müssen diesen Anforderungen gerecht werden.Basically, there is always interest in heat-resistant and wear-resistant molded parts. In particular, engine components such as valve train and turbocharger components are subject to the highest demands with regard to heat resistance, temperature and wear resistance. However, rotationally symmetrical engine components that are subject to high temperatures, such as valve guides, bearing bushes, shaft seals, valve seat rings (VSR) and engine components for exhaust gas recirculation (EGR components) must also meet these requirements.
So muss beispielsweise ein Ventilsitzring (VSR) als tribologischer Partner zum Ventil ein sicheres Abdichten des Brennraums für eine einwandfreie Verbrennung, einen fehlerfreien Ladungswechsels, den Wärmetransport vom Ventil und dem Brennraum zum Zylinderkopf, sowie eine verlustfreie Führung des Frisch- und Abgasstroms gewährleisten.For example, a valve seat ring (VSR) as a tribological partner to the valve must ensure that the combustion chamber is sealed securely for perfect combustion, faultless gas exchange, heat transfer from the valve and the combustion chamber to the cylinder head, and loss-free guidance of the fresh and exhaust gas flow.
Eine auf die jeweilige Applikationen zugeschnittene Gestaltung und der richtige Werkstoff für diese Motorkomponente, bzw. die Kombination der Komponenten VSR und Ventil sind deshalb essenziell, um einen einwandfreien Verbrennungsverlauf zu gewährleisten. Eine hohe Verschleißrate am VSR führt zum Verlust des Ventilspiels und damit zu Undichtigkeiten und Kompressionsverlusten. Die Weiterentwicklung von Verbrennungsmotoren und damit die Steigerung der Leistungsdichte und Reduzierung der Emissionswerte werden deshalb unter anderem durch die Funktionsfähigkeit des tribologischen Systems Ventil/VSR begrenzt.A design tailored to the respective applications and the right material for this engine component, or the combination of the components VSR and valve, are therefore essential to ensure a perfect combustion process. A high wear rate at the VSR leads to a loss of valve clearance and thus to leaks and loss of compression. The further development of internal combustion engines and thus the increase in power density and reduction in emissions are therefore limited, among other things, by the functionality of the tribological system valve / VSR.
Die Hauptbeanspruchungen im tribologischen System Ventil/VSR sind beispielsweise für hochbeanspruchte Nutzfahrzeug- und Stationärmotoren eine hohe Relativbewegung und hohe Flächenpressung am Ventilsitz in Folge hoher Verbrennungsdrücke von 200 bis 250 bar, eine hohe thermische Beanspruchung mit Temperaturen am Ventilsitz des Ventilsitzrings von 300 bis 500 °C und geringe Festkörperschmierung bei Verwendung von alternativen Kraftstoffen und neuartiger Abgasnachbehandlungskonzepte. Dadurch entsteht an den Komponenten Ventil und VSR eine extreme tribologische Beanspruchung, der vor allem mit entsprechenden Werkstoffkonzepten entgegnet werden muss.The main stresses in the valve / VSR tribological system are, for example, high relative movement and high surface pressure on the valve seat due to high combustion pressures from 200 to 250 bar, high thermal stress with temperatures at the valve seat of the valve seat ring of 300 to 500 ° C for highly stressed commercial vehicle and stationary engines and low solid lubrication when using alternative fuels and new exhaust gas treatment concepts. This results in extreme tribological stress on the valve and VSR components, which must be countered above all with appropriate material concepts.
Darüber hinaus werden an die Komponenten anwendungsabhängig weitere technische Anforderungen gestellt, wie zum Beispiel eine ausreichende Relaxations- und Korrosionsbeständigkeit. Relaxation ist ein thermisch aktivierter Prozess, der unter mechanischer Belastung bei hohen Temperaturen auftritt und dazu führt, dass Bauteile innere Spannungen abbauen. Kurz gesagt, ist Relaxation die Umwandlung von elastischer Dehnung in plastische Kriechdehnung bei konstanter Gesamtdehnung. In einem mit einem definierten Übermaß, der sogenannten Überdeckung, in den Zylinderkopf eingepressten VSR entstehen hohe Druckspannungen. Abhängig von der Höhe der Belastung und der Relaxationsbeständigkeit des jeweiligen Werkstoffs baut der VSR diese Spannungen durch Relaxation ab. Die anfänglich rein elastische Dehnung durch das Einpressen wird teilweise in plastische Kriechdehnung umgewandelt. Der VSR weist nach dem Ausbau eine geringere Überdeckung auf. Folglich müssen Ventilsitzringe eine ausreichende Relaxationsbeständigkeit aufweisen.In addition, depending on the application, additional technical requirements are placed on the components, such as sufficient relaxation and corrosion resistance. Relaxation is a thermally activated process that occurs under mechanical stress at high temperatures and leads to components relieving internal stresses. In short, relaxation is the transformation of elastic strain into plastic creep strain with constant total strain. High compressive stresses occur in a VSR that is pressed into the cylinder head with a defined oversize, the so-called overlap. Depending on the level of stress and the resistance to relaxation of the respective material, the VSR relieves these stresses by relaxation. The initially purely elastic stretch caused by the pressing is partially converted into plastic creep strain. The VSR shows less coverage after expansion. Consequently, valve seat rings must have sufficient relaxation resistance.
Weiterhin werden Ventilsitzringe anwendungsbedingt korrosiv beansprucht. Zum Beispiel ist die tribochemische Belastung an VSR durch die Maßnahmen im Zuge der neuen Abgasvorschriften verschärft. In Nutzfahrzeug-Anwendungen kann es durch Abgasrückführung (AGR) zur Verringerung der Stickoxidemissionen zu Kondensatbildung im Einlass kommen und infolgedessen zur Korrosion an den VSR. Dabei treten kritische Zustände nicht etwa bei hohen Lasten auf, sondern im Stillstand, wenn der Motor abkühlt. In vielen Nutzfahrzeug -Anwendungen ist deshalb der Einsatz korrosionsbeständiger VSR zumindest auf der Einlassseite erforderlich.Valve seat rings are also subject to corrosive stresses due to the application. For example, the tribochemical load on VSR has been tightened as a result of the measures in the course of the new exhaust gas regulations. In commercial vehicle applications, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions can lead to condensate formation in the inlet and consequently to corrosion on the VSR. Critical conditions do not occur at high loads, but at a standstill when the engine cools down. In Many commercial vehicle applications therefore require the use of corrosion-resistant VSR at least on the inlet side.
Im Stand der Technik ist eine Vielzahl von Verfahren zur Herstellung vorstehend beschriebener Motorkomponenten bekannt; beispielsweise gießtechnisch über die Verfahren Schleuder- und Sandguss, sowie pulvermetallurgisch über Pressen und Sintern. Auch spezielle Fertigungsverfahren, bei denen Material durch einen Auftragsschweißprozess aufgebracht wird, sind bekannt.A large number of processes for producing motor components described above are known in the prior art; for example, in terms of casting technology using the centrifugal and sand casting methods, and powder metallurgy using presses and sintering. Special manufacturing processes in which material is applied by a build-up welding process are also known.

Gusstechnisch hergestellte VSR werden vorwiegend im Nutzfahrzeug-Bereich eingesetzt. Typische Werkstoffe für mittlere bis hohe Beanspruchungen sind hochlegierte, modifizierte Schnellarbeitsstähle und hochlegierte Fe-Cr-Stähle. Höchsten Beanspruchungen in schweren Nutzfahrzeug- und Stationärmotoren und dem Betrieb mit alternativen Kraftstoffen genügen diese Werkstoffe aber in der Regel nicht mehr. Hierfür bedarf es Sonderlegierungen auf Ni- und Co-Basis. Diese zeichnen sich durch hohe Warmdruckfestigkeit, hohe Temperaturbeständigkeit und hervorragende Verschleißeigenschaften aus. Zudem zeigen diese Werkstoffe ausreichende Beständigkeit gegen Relaxation und Korrosion.VSR castings are mainly used in the commercial vehicle sector. Typical materials for medium to high loads are high-alloy, modified high-speed steels and high-alloy Fe-Cr steels. However, these materials generally no longer meet the highest demands in heavy commercial vehicle and stationary engines and operation with alternative fuels. This requires special alloys based on Ni and Co. These are characterized by high heat resistance, high temperature resistance and excellent wear properties. In addition, these materials show sufficient resistance to relaxation and corrosion.
Im Zuge der steigenden Emissionsanforderungen, sowie der Leistungssteigerung und der Verlängerung der Wartungsintervalle werden für Nutzfahrzeug- und Stationärmotoren vermehrt derartige Werkstoffkonzepte erforderlich.In the course of the increasing emission requirements, as well as the increase in performance and the extension of the maintenance intervals, such material concepts are increasingly required for commercial vehicle and stationary engines.
Bekannt sind zwei Fertigungsverfahren zur gusstechnischen Herstellung von VSR, nämlich der Schleuder- und Sandguss. Schleuderguss eignet sich insbesondere für große Stückzahlen. Aufgrund des hohen Nachbearbeitungsbedarfs bestehen jedoch technologische und wirtschaftliche Grenzen. So ist die Herstellung von hochfesten Co-oder Ni-Basis-Werkstoffen über Schleuderguss nur bedingt möglich bzw. aufgrund der schweren Zerspanbarkeit in der Regel unwirtschaftlich. Sandguss hingegen eignet sich nur für kleinere und mittlere Stückzahlen. Die einzelnen Schritte der Nachbearbeitung sind im Schleuder- und Einzelguss gleich. In beiden Fällen muss der VSR vollständig bearbeitet werden, um die Gusshaut zu entfernen.Two manufacturing processes for the casting of VSR are known, namely centrifugal and sand casting. Centrifugal casting is particularly suitable for large quantities. However, due to the high post-processing requirements, there are technological and economic limits. For example, the production of high-strength Co or Ni-based materials by centrifugal casting is only possible to a limited extent or is generally uneconomical due to the difficult machinability. Sand casting, however, is only suitable for small and medium quantities. The individual post-processing steps are the same in centrifugal and single casting. In both cases, the VSR must be completely machined to remove the cast skin.

Aufgrund des hohen Gehalts an teuren Legierungselementen und der beschriebenen Problematik bei der konventionellen Herstellung, insbesondere eines derart fein gemahlenen Pulvers, bedarf es einer Bereicherung des Standes der Technik, um die Markanforderungen und die obig beschriebenen divergierenden Zielsetzung zu erfüllen.Due to the high content of expensive alloying elements and the problems described in conventional production, in particular such a finely ground powder, an enrichment of the prior art is required in order to meet the market requirements and the divergent objective described above.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von warmbeständigen und verschleißfesten Formteilen, insbesondere Motorkomponenten bereitzustellen, das die oben genannten Nachteile im Stand der Technik umgeht. Insbesondere sollen Motorkomponenten für hochbeanspruchte Nutzfahrzeug- und Stationärmotor-Anwendungen geschaffen werden, die ausreichende Verschleißbeständigkeit, günstige Teilekosten, sowie eine gute Bearbeitbarkeit auf den Fertigungsstraßen der Endkunden aufweisen. Des Weiteren sollen mit dem Verfahren hergestellte warmbeständige und verschleißfeste Formteilen angegeben werden.The invention has for its object to provide a method for producing heat-resistant and wear-resistant molded parts, in particular engine components, which avoids the above-mentioned disadvantages in the prior art. In particular, engine components for heavy-duty commercial vehicle and stationary engine applications are to be created, which have sufficient wear resistance, low part costs, and good machinability on the production lines of the end customers. Furthermore, heat-resistant and wear-resistant molded parts produced using the method are to be specified.
Zur Lösung der Aufgabe wird vorgeschlagen, ein, wasserverdüstes auf Fe- oder Cobasierendes Sintermaterial herzustellen, das eine Korngröße von > 10 µm, bevorzugt von > 30 µm und besonders bevorzugt von > 50 µm aufweist, und dieses Material gemäß den weiteren Verfahrensschritten nach Anspruch 1 oder Patentanspruch 2 zu behandeln.To achieve the object, it is proposed to produce a water-atomized sintered material based on Fe or cobas, which has a grain size of> 10 µm, preferably of> 30 µm and particularly preferably of> 50 µm, and this material according to the further process steps according to claim 1 or to treat
Die vorliegende Erfindung wendet sich demnach ab vom Stand der Technik, der zur Erreichung hoher Dichten insbesondere von > 97 % Korngröße für das Sinterpulver von < 8,5 µm fordert. Erfindungsgemäß führt demnach wider dem Stand der Technik eine Erhöhung der Korngrößen auf > 10 µm, bevorzugt auf > 30 µm und besonders bevorzugt auf > 50 µm in Verbindung mit einer Wasserverdüsung zu vergleichbar hohen Dichten der Sinterkörper.The present invention accordingly turns away from the prior art, which requires, in order to achieve high densities, in particular of> 97% grain size for the sinter powder of <8.5 μm. According to the invention, therefore, contrary to the prior art, increasing the grain sizes to> 10 μm, preferably to> 30 μm and particularly preferably to> 50 μm in conjunction with water atomization leads to comparable high densities of the sintered bodies.
Erfindungsgemäß sind dabei folgende Verfahrensschritte auszuführen: Zunächst erfolgt die Herstellung eines auf Fe- oder Co-basierenden Sintermaterials mit einer mittleren Korngröße von > 10 µm, bevorzugt von > 30 µm und besonders bevorzugt von > 50 µm durch Wasserverdüsung, d.h. es wird Wasser unter Hochdruck zum zerschlagen des schmelzflüssigen Metallstrahls verwendet; dann erfolgt die Agglomeration des Sinterwerkstoffs über Sprühtrocknung auf 10 bis 400 µm mit einem organischen Bindemittel, wobei gegebenenfalls Festschmierstoffe und/oder Hartphasen beigemischt werden; dann erfolgt ein kalt isostatisches Verpressen des Sinterwerkstoffs mit einem Pressdruck von 400 bis 900 MPa auf Dichten von 5 bis 7 g/ccm; dann erfolgt das Sintern der Grünlinge bei Temperaturen von 1.000 bis 1.350 °C und schließlich ein Nachbearbeitungsschritt.According to the invention, the following process steps are to be carried out: First, an Fe- or Co-based sintered material with an average grain size of> 10 µm, preferably of> 30 µm and particularly preferably of> 50 µm is produced by water atomization, i.e. high pressure water is used to break up the molten metal jet; the agglomeration of the sintered material then takes place by spray drying to 10 to 400 μm with an organic binder, solid lubricants and / or hard phases optionally being added; then a cold isostatic pressing of the sintered material takes place with a pressing pressure of 400 to 900 MPa to densities of 5 to 7 g / ccm; then the green compacts are sintered at temperatures of 1,000 to 1,350 ° C and finally a post-processing step.

Als Schutzatmosphäre wird eine N2-H2-Atmosphäre mit einem Mischungsverhältnis von ca. 80 - 20 % oder Vakuum eingesetzt. Es wurde herausgefunden, dass die Temperaturen während des Sinterns zwischen 1.000 bis 1.300 °C liegen, wobei ein Sintermaterial auf Fe-Basis im unteren Temperaturbereich, d.h. von 1.000 bis 1.200 °C und ein Material auf Co-Basis im oberen Temperaturbereich, d.h. 1.100 bis 1.300 °C gesintert werden muss. Die Herstellung des auf Fe- oder Co-basierenden Sintermaterials erfolgt durch eine sog. Wasserverdüsung.An N2-H2 atmosphere with a mixing ratio of approx. 80 - 20% or vacuum is used as the protective atmosphere. The temperatures during sintering were found to be between 1,000 to 1,300 ° C, with an Fe-based sintered material in the lower temperature range, i.e. from 1,000 to 1,200 ° C and a Co-based material in the upper temperature range, i.e. 1,100 to 1,300 ° C must be sintered. The Fe or Co-based sintered material is produced by a so-called water atomization.
Das pulvermetallurgische Herstellverfahren ermöglicht es, hochpräzise Formteile zu produzieren, die weniger Nachbearbeitungsschritte bedürfen im Vergleich zur klassischen Herstellung über Gießen. Darüber hinaus können Werkstoffe mit besonderen Gefügeeigenschaften hergestellt werden. Im Rahmen der Erfindung wurde herausgefunden, dass die hergestellten Komponenten gegenüber dem Stand der Technik eine verbesserte Gefügestruktur und Verteilung der Hartphasen aufweisen. So setzt sich das Gefüge der erfindungsmäßigen Legierungen aus einer Matrix mit einer Partikelgröße von 5-10 µm zusammen, in der gleichmäßig fein verteilte Karbide oder intermetallische Phasen mit einer Korngröße von ebenfalls 5-10 µm und ggf. Festschmierstoffe, wie zum Beispiel MoS2, eingelagert sind. Der heterogene Gefügeaufbau ist aus tribologischer Sicht sehr vielversprechend: So haben sich heterogene Gefüge mit harten Karbiden oder intermetallischen Phasen etwa gegen die Verschleißmechanismen Adhäsion, Oberflächenzerrütung und Abrasion bewährt (vgl. Sommer, Heinz, & Schöfer, 2011).The powder metallurgical manufacturing process makes it possible to produce high-precision molded parts that require fewer post-processing steps compared to conventional casting. In addition, materials with special structural properties can be manufactured. In the context of the invention, it was found that the components produced have an improved structural structure and distribution of the hard phases compared to the prior art. The structure of the alloys according to the invention is composed of a matrix with a particle size of 5-10 μm, in which evenly finely distributed carbides or intermetallic phases with a grain size of likewise 5-10 μm and possibly solid lubricants, such as MoS2, are stored are. The heterogeneous structure is very promising from a tribological point of view: For example, heterogeneous structures with hard carbides or intermetallic phases have proven themselves against the wear mechanisms of adhesion, surface disruption and abrasion (see Sommer, Heinz, & Schöfer, 2011).
Darüber hinaus lassen sich dichte Gefüge herstellen, was zu einer erhöhten Korrosionsbeständigkeit führt, im Vergleich zu klassischen Sinterwerkstoffen aus konventionellen Sinterpulvern mit einer initialen Korngröße größer 50 µm. Diese Gefügeeigenschaften lassen sich nicht über die bis dato bekannten Fertigungsverfahren herstellen. Somit stellt das Verfahren sowohl für die Fe- basierte Tool-Steel-Werkstoffe und inbesondere für die Co- und Ni-basierten Sonderwerkstoffe eine Bereicherung des Stands der Technik dar.In addition, dense structures can be produced, which leads to increased corrosion resistance compared to classic sintered materials made from conventional sintered powders with an initial grain size greater than 50 µm. These structural properties cannot be produced using the manufacturing processes known to date. Thus, the process is an enrichment of the state of the art both for the Fe-based Tool Steel materials and in particular for the Co- and Ni-based special materials.
Typische pulvermetallurgisch hergestellte Formteile für Motorkomponenten basieren auf Eisen- und Schellarbeitsstahl-Grundpulvern und weisen ebenfalls ein heterogenes Gefüge mit eingelagerten Hartphasen und Festschmierstoffen auf. Erfahrungsgemäß können Einlasskomponenten mit geringen bis mittleren Anforderungen unter anderem Materialien mit offener Porosität hergestellt werden. Für höhere Anforderungen und Auslasskomponenten wird die Porosität in der Regel über einen Infiltrierprozess mit Cu gefüllt. Dadurch wird einerseits die Anfälligkeit gegen Oxidation verringert und andererseits die Wärmeleitfähigkeit erhöht. Diverse Versuche zur Herstellung der obig beschriebenen hochlegierten Fe-Basis und insbesondere Co-Basislegierungen mit zum Teil ausreichender Korrosionsbeständigkeit mittels klassischer pulvermetallurgischer Herstellverfahren sind gescheitert. So wurde herausgefunden, dass die beschriebenen Werkstoffe ausschließlich über das beschriebene Fertigungsverfahren hergestellt werden können.Typical powder metallurgically produced molded parts for engine components are based on iron and fast-working steel base powders and also have a heterogeneous structure with embedded hard phases and solid lubricants. Experience has shown that inlet components with low to medium requirements can be made from materials with open porosity. For higher requirements and outlet components the porosity is usually filled with Cu via an infiltration process. This reduces the susceptibility to oxidation and increases the thermal conductivity. Various attempts to manufacture the above-described high-alloy Fe base and in particular Co-base alloys, some of which have sufficient corrosion resistance, using conventional powder metallurgy manufacturing processes have failed. It was found that the materials described can only be manufactured using the manufacturing process described.
Die Erfindung geht von dem allgemeinen Gedanken aus, die Vorteile der Pulvermetallurgie mit den Vorteilen der Gusstechnologie zu verbinden, mit dem Ziel der wirtschaftlichen Herstellung von höchstverschleißfesten Motorkomponenten, insbesondere Ventiltriebs- und Turboladerkomponenten für die Anwendung in Hochtemperaturanwendungen bzw. die pulvermetallurgische Herstellung von hochlegierten Fe- und insbesondere Co-Basis-Werkstoffen.The invention is based on the general idea of combining the advantages of powder metallurgy with the advantages of casting technology, with the aim of economically producing highly wear-resistant engine components, in particular valve train and turbocharger components for use in high-temperature applications or for the powder-metallurgical production of high-alloy alloys. and especially co-based materials.
Der Erfindung liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, dass sich die pulvermetallurgische Herstellung von Motorkomponenten, wie beispielsweise Ventilsitzringen, für Hochtemperaturanwendungen durch einen geringen Nachbearbeitungsbedarf, hohe Kosteneffizienz und ressourcenschonende Herstellung auszeichnet. Diverse Versuche haben gezeigt, dass klassische Gusswerkstoffe mit gleichwertigem Eigenschaftsprofil ausschließlich über das beschriebene Fertigungsverfahren hergestellt werden können. Dabei wurde herausgefunden, dass Werkstoffe mit sehr heterogenen Gefügen und positiven Verschleißeigenschaften hergestellt werden könnenThe invention is based on the knowledge that the powder-metallurgical manufacture of engine components, such as valve seat rings, for high-temperature applications is characterized by a low need for reworking, high cost efficiency and resource-saving manufacture. Various tests have shown that classic cast materials with an equivalent property profile can only be produced using the manufacturing process described. It was found that materials with very heterogeneous structures and positive wear properties can be manufactured
Die Formteile, insbesondere Motorkomponenten, müssen nachbearbeitet, insbesondere spanend nachbearbeitet werden, da die Grünlinge während des Sinterprozesses um 10 bis 20% schrumpfen. Unter einem Nachbearbeitungsschritt werden ein Drehen (außen und innen), ein Plan-, ein Rund- und ein Gleitschleifen verstanden. Welcher bzw. welche Nachbearbeitungsschritt(e) zum Einsatz kommen hängt von der jeweils herzustellenden Motorkomponente ab. Der Nachbearbeitungsbedarf ist bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren im Vergleich zur klassischen Gusstechnik deutlich reduziert, wodurch die wirtschaftliche Herstellung von hochlegierten Fe- und insbesondere Co-Basis-Werkstoffen möglich wird.The molded parts, in particular engine components, have to be reworked, in particular machined, since the green compacts shrink by 10 to 20% during the sintering process. A post-processing step means turning (outside and inside), face grinding, cylindrical grinding and slide grinding. Which or which post-processing step (s) are used depends on the particular engine component to be manufactured. The need for post-processing is significantly reduced in the method according to the invention in comparison to conventional casting technology, which enables the economical production of high-alloyed Fe and in particular Co-based materials.
Zudem können Festschmierstoffe, die bis zu Temperaturen von 1.100 °C beständig sind, gegebenenfalls mit sehr hohem Anteil, beigemischt werden. Die Festschmierstoffe und gegebenenfalls Hartphasen sind als heterogenes Gefüge ausgebildet und gleichmäßig in dem Formteil verteilt. Als Festschmierstoff kann beispielsweise Molybdändisulfid (MoS2), Mangansulfid (MnS) und Calciumfluorid (CaF) eingesetzt werden. Die Beimischung der Festschmierstoffe führt einerseits zu einer erhöhten Verschleißbeständigkeit in trockenen Umgebungen wie sie im Verbrennungsmotor vorliegen und andererseits zu einer verbesserten Bearbeitbarkeit bei der Endbearbeitung des Motorenherstellers.In addition, solid lubricants that are resistant up to temperatures of 1,100 ° C, possibly with a very high proportion, can be added. The solid lubricants and possibly hard phases are designed as a heterogeneous structure and evenly distributed in the molded part. For example, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), manganese sulfide (MnS) and calcium fluoride (CaF) can be used as the solid lubricant. The admixture of the solid lubricants leads on the one hand to increased wear resistance in dry environments as found in the internal combustion engine and on the other hand to improved machinability in the finishing process of the engine manufacturer.
Ferner können Hartstoffe, zum Beispiel intermetallische Phasen oder Ferro-Molybdän (FeMo), beigemischt werden. Die Hartphasen haben eine Korngröße von zumindest 50 bis max. 500 µm, bevorzugt von 150 µm bis 300 µm. Die dichtgesinterten Basis-Werkstoffe können zudem harte, feinkörnige und feinverteile Karbide sowie weitere heterogen verteilte Karbide enthalten. Dies führt zu einer erhöhten Verschleißbeständigkeit und Relaxationsbeständigkeit, da Korngrenzengleiten und Werkstoffdeformationen behindert werden.Hard materials, for example intermetallic phases or ferro-molybdenum (FeMo), can also be added. The hard phases have a grain size of at least 50 to max. 500 µm, preferably from 150 µm to 300 µm. The densely sintered base materials can also contain hard, fine-grained and finely divided carbides as well as other heterogeneously distributed carbides. This leads to increased wear resistance and relaxation resistance, since grain boundary sliding and material deformation are hindered.
Auch wurde gefunden, dass ein erfindungsgemäß hergestelltes Sinterformteil eine erhöhte Korrosionsbeständigkeit im Vergleich zu konventionellen Sinterwerkstoffen mit offenen oder Cu-gefüllten Poren aufweist.It has also been found that a sintered molded part produced according to the invention has increased corrosion resistance in comparison to conventional sintered materials with open or Cu-filled pores.
Insgesamt können erfindungsgemäß Komponenten für Verbrennungsmotoren aus Werkstoffen wirtschaftlich hergestellt werden, die ausschließlich gusstechnisch bekannt sind. Damit eröffnen sich verschleißtechnische und wirtschaftliche Vorteile. Bis dato ist kein Fertigungsverfahren bekannt, mit dem, mit gleich hoher Wirtschaftlichkeit derartige Werkstoffkonzepte realisiert werden können.Overall, according to the invention, components for internal combustion engines can be economically produced from materials which are known only in terms of casting technology. This opens up wear-related and economic advantages. To date, no manufacturing process is known with which such material concepts can be implemented with the same high level of efficiency.
Die Parameter zur Weiterverarbeitung des granulierten Sintermaterials gemäß konventionellen pulvermetallurgischen Fertigungsverfahren können durch eine geringe Anzahl an Versuchen festgelegt werden, da der Fachmann mit den im Prinzip auftretenden Effekten vertraut ist.The parameters for the further processing of the granulated sintered material in accordance with conventional powder metallurgical manufacturing processes can be determined by a small number of tests, since the person skilled in the art is familiar with the effects which occur in principle.
Die nach dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren hergestellten, warmbeständigen und verschleißfesten Formteilen, insbesondere Motorkomponenten, besitzen ein weites Anwendungsfeld. Schwerpunktmäßig liegt die Anwendung im Bereich der Motorkomponenten die ein dichtes, heterogenes Gefüge und gleichmäßig verteilte Festschmierstoffe und Hartphasen aufweisen, und/oder im Bereich der Komponenten, die eine hohe Korrosionsbeständigkeit durch ein dichtes Gefüge aufweisen. Hierunter zählen insbesondere Ventilsitzringe für hochbelastete Verbrennungskraftmaschinen, insbesondere Nutzfahrzeug- und Stationärmotoren und Lagerbuchsen für Turbolader und andere Komponenten des Abgasstrangs, die hervorragende tribologische Eigenschaften mit geringster Festkörperschmierung haben müssen; zudem müssen sie hohen Beanspruchungstemperaturen und Drücken von > 210 bar standhalten.The heat-resistant and wear-resistant molded parts, in particular engine components, produced by the method according to the invention have a wide field of application. The main application is in the area of engine components that have a dense, heterogeneous structure and evenly distributed solid lubricants and hard phases, and / or in the area of components that have high corrosion resistance due to a dense structure. These include, in particular, valve seat rings for highly loaded internal combustion engines, in particular commercial vehicle and stationary engines and bearing bushes for turbochargers and other components of the exhaust system, which must have excellent tribological properties with minimal solid lubrication; they also have to withstand high temperatures and pressures of> 210 bar.
