Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for heat treatment of a workpiece made of a high-alloy steel.
- Nitriding causes different nitrides to separate out within the metallic material in the surface area. This leads to the build-up of internal compressive stresses, which in some cases assume very high values in the edge area. Depending on the surface distance, the residual stresses decrease with increasing distance from the edge area. The presence of internal compressive stresses leads to improved fatigue strengths. Nitriding is also used for high-alloy steels, especially for components such as nozzle bodies, valve bodies or throttle plates.
- high-alloy steels Due to the high oxygen affinity of their alloying elements, high-alloy steels form a natural oxide layer of a few nanometers.
- This oxide layer is formed when it comes into contact with air and consists, for example, of chromium oxide, vanadium oxide, iron oxide and other oxides. Since the oxide layer is very compact and partially diffusion-tight, subsequent diffusion of nitrogen at elevated temperatures, in particular between 480 ° C. and 590 ° C., can be negatively influenced and even completely prevented. Inhomogeneous connecting layers as well as diffusion layers with different functional Properties are the result.
- the naturally occurring oxide layer can be removed chemically, for example by pickling with an acid, before the actual nitriding process. Furthermore, the oxide layer can also be removed mechanically by brushing and / or grinding, or else electrically by applying a corresponding voltage.
- a method for heat treatment of metallic workpieces in particular for nitriding or nitrocarburizing of alloyed iron materials, is known.
- the workpieces are heated in a nitriding furnace to a temperature between 400 ° C and 500 ° C in an ammonia-containing gas atmosphere.
- the workpieces are then heated to a temperature between 500 ° C. and 700 ° C. in a gas atmosphere containing ammonia and an added oxidizing agent.
- the workpieces are exposed to this temperature and this gas atmosphere for a period of up to 5 hours.
- the workpiece which consists of a high-alloy steel, is heated to a first temperature in a vacuum environment, the first temperature being kept constant during a first holding phase, the workpiece then being heated to a second temperature that is higher than the first temperature, the second temperature during is kept constant in a second holding phase, and wherein the workpiece is quenched after the second holding phase, preferably in gaseous or evaporating media.
- a surface of the workpiece, in particular also the inner contours, are flowed around a surface of the workpiece during the first holding phase in a first treatment step with a process gas that emits hydrogen and / or a process gas mixture for cleaning and activation of the surface, the surface during the first holding phase in a second treatment step with a process gas that emits nitrogen and / or process gas mixture is flowed around to form a thin nitride-containing layer, and the nitride-containing layer is provided to optimize a downstream gas nitriding process.
- the heat treatment according to the invention is subdivided into the manufacturing process of a workpiece consisting of a high-alloy steel behind the initial soft machining, in particular the production of the workpiece from a blank.
- the tempering of the workpiece takes place, for example, in an evacuable, oxygen-free tempering furnace.
- the tempering of the workpieces is a second heat treatment.
- the third heat treatment step takes place by grinding, hard turning or similar processes, in which the properties required for the workpiece, in particular the workpiece surface, are set by means of gas nitriding at preferably 480-590 ° C by diffusing nitrogen into the workpiece.
- the vacuum furnace is hermetically sealed and a pump connected to the interior of the vacuum furnace creates the vacuum ambient conditions in the vacuum furnace.
- the naturally formed oxide layer or passive layer is broken up by the hardening process according to the invention and the surface of the high-alloy steel is cleaned. Carrying out the process in a vacuum or an oxygen-free atmosphere prevents or slows down the formation of a new passive layer and / or the repassivation of the high-alloy steel. A depletion of hardness-increasing alloying elements close to the edge is thus additionally avoided.
- holding phase is to be understood as the constant holding of a temperature at which the workpiece assumes the internal temperature of the vacuum furnace for carrying out the first and second treatment step.
- a process gas and / or process gas mixture that emits hydrogen flows around the high-alloy steel in a first treatment step.
- the injection of the gas preferably takes place constantly.
- a pulsed, variable or pressure-controlled course of the flow is also conceivable.
- the flow around the workpiece in the first treatment step represents a cleaning and activation step in order to promote the diffusion of nitrogen into the surface of the steel in the second processing step due to the surface cleaned and activated as a result and the high temperature in the vacuum furnace.
- the first temperature for the first treatment step is between 800 and 1090 ° C., preferably 900 ° C., in order to ensure optimum interaction of the process gas and / or process gas mixture which emits hydrogen with the surface of the To ensure workpiece.
- the oxide layer is broken up and repassivation of the surface is prevented with the aid of the vacuum.
- the surface of the workpiece is therefore highly reactive towards the diffusion of nitrogen in the second treatment step.
- the second treatment step begins at the constant first temperature of the furnace.
- a nitrogen-releasing process gas and / or process gas mixture flows around the high-alloy steel to form a nitride-containing layer.
- Alloyed or high-alloy steels are particularly suitable for nitriding, since the alloying elements of these steels preferentially combine with the atomic nitrogen to form nitrides.
- unalloyed steels can form brittle nitriding layers that tend to flake off during nitriding.
- Steels with a carbon content between 0.3 and 0.6 mass% and alloying elements such as chromium or vanadium, which form surface layer nitrides at high temperatures, are particularly suitable for nitriding.
- the advantage resulting from the so-called pre-nitriding in the hardening process according to the invention over conventional production methods of workpieces made of high-alloy steels is that due to the vacuum environment and the cleaning and activation by the process gas and / or process gas mixture emitting hydrogen during nitriding in the second treatment step of the hardening process, a homogeneous and forms a dense nitride layer on the surface.
- This nitride layer can be regarded as a seed layer or passivation layer, since the actual nitriding step only takes place after the tempering and before the hard machining of the workpiece.
- the pre-nitriding in the hardening process also optimizes the gas nitriding in the downstream manufacturing step. Due to the homogeneous seed layer from the hardening process, a more compact connecting layer with a correspondingly lower proportion of pores is formed during gas nitriding in the chamber furnace.
- the nitriding effect which is described with the help of the so-called nitriding index, is accordingly higher due to the pre-nitriding in the hardening process.
- the nitriding index results from the partial pressures of the nitrogen emitting Process gas and / or process gas mixture and the partial pressure of the hydrogen. The higher the nitriding index, the greater the potential for nitride formation.
- nitrides are formed. These nitride precipitates form the connecting layer directly on the surface. Starting from the surface, a decreasing nitrogen gradient forms, this area is called the diffusion layer. In this area there are small nitride precipitates as well as nitrogen dissolved in the metal lattice.
- iron forms iron nitrides and in high-alloy steels, for example, chromium and vanadium combine to form corresponding nitrides.
- nitrided seed layer is present as a result of the pre-nitriding in the hardening process, a lower nitriding index is required in the nitriding process, which simplifies and simplifies the process management.
- the gas nitriding process can also be shortened and / or carried out at lower temperatures, which also makes the process more cost-effective.
- the nitrided layer makes the tempering process less sensitive after the hardening process, as a renewed temperature increase below the transformation temperature reduces stresses, depending on the composition of the steel, further special carbides can be precipitated and a lower hardness can be set without the alloying elements on the surface of the base material interacting to risk with the furnace atmosphere.
- the hardening process changes from the first holding phase to the second holding phase.
- the high-alloy steel is heated to the second temperature.
- the second temperature is also to be understood as the austenitizing temperature.
- the high-alloy steel is essentially in the form of ferrite and carbide, which converts to austenite at high temperatures and the carbides partially dissolve. The aim is to take advantage of the high solubility of carbon at high temperatures in austenite.
- the second treatment step ends with the second holding phase.
- the duration of the second treatment step, the second temperature of the high-alloy steel during the second treatment step and / or the nitrogen partial pressure on the surface of the high-alloy steel during the second treatment step are selected so that the nitride-containing layer with a thickness of less than 2 ⁇ m, preferably with a thickness of 0.001 ⁇ m to 1 ⁇ m.
- the nitride-containing layer preferably has sheet-like or crystalline nitrides. Chromium can form sheet-like nitrides, iron preferentially forming crystalline nitrides.
- the hydrogen-releasing process gas and / or process gas mixture flows around the surface with a first treatment pressure and the nitrogen-releasing process gas and / or process gas mixture flows around the surface with a second treatment pressure, the respective treatment pressure being in a pressure range between 10 mbar and 3000 mbar.
- the selected pressure range is strongly dependent on the properties of the workpiece.
- the first treatment pressure is lower than the second treatment pressure.
- the higher the second treatment pressure the greater the potential for nitride formation in the area of the workpiece near the edge and the deeper the nitrogen diffuses into the workpiece.
