Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A method and apparatus for manufacturing shaped precision articles from molten metals (including alloys), which articles may either be effectively nonporous or have a controlled degree of porosity and may be finished (i.e. no further processing is required) or may require a small amount of finish machining (e.g.
  • the method comprises directing a stream of molten metal ,or molten metal alloy at a collecting surface to form a deposit, and working the deposit by means of a die to form a precision metal or metal alloy article.
  • Shaped metal articles are usually produced at present by one of three main methods.
  • One known method involves the casting of molten metal into a desired shape; this can be achieved by several different techniques, e.g., sand-casting, die-casting, centrifugal casting, shellmoulting or investment casting.
  • Articles produced by these methods may possess poor mechanical properties mainly as a result of relatively large grain sizes, structural weaknesses and defects arising from the casting process, e.g., shrinkage, segregation (particularly in highly-alloyed metals) and splashings onto the side of the mould.
  • a second known method involves the casting of molten metal as an ingot, followed by either a hot-working process (e.g., hot-rolling, forging, pressing or extruding) and/or a cold-working process (e.g., cold-rolling, pressing, drawing, coining or spinning).
  • a hot-working process e.g., hot-rolling, forging, pressing or extruding
  • a cold-working process e.g., cold-rolling, pressing, drawing, coining or spinning
  • semi-finished products i.e., plates, billets and bars
  • Such processing may involve re-heating of the semi-finished product at various stages, each time followed by a forming operation which can involve high loads, resulting in considerable wearing of the forming dies.
  • machining is often needed to obtain the required dimensions of the finished product (e.g., a gear wheel).
  • articles of complex shape can be manufactured which can possess mechanical properties generally superior to those articles produced by the first known method already described. Defects in the original ingot, however, can result in a final product of poor quality.
  • metal powders produced, for example, by gas or water atomisation of molten metal, mechanical pulverisation or chemical reduction of ore
  • metal powders often have to be mechanically handled, graded and heat treated, prior to forming operations.
  • a brittle compact has to be made, usually by cold-pressing powdered metal in a die before sintering and other forming operations can be carried out to produce an article of finished shape.
  • powder metallurgical techniques it is possible, to produce finished articles of complex shape which do not require any machining.
  • this invention provides a method for manufacturing shaped precision articles from molten metal or molten metal alloy, comprising directing an atomised stream of molten metal or molten metal alloy at a collecting surface to form a deposit, and working the deposit by means of a die to form a precision metal or metal alloy article.
  • the invention also provides an apparatus for manufacturing shaped precision articles from molten metal or molten metal alloy, comprising a chamber having means for atomising a stream of molten metal or metal alloy and for directing the atomised stream onto a collecting surface soas to form a deposit on said surface, a die movableby operating means for effecting working of the deposit to form a precision metal or metal alloy article, and means for removing the precision metal or metal alloy article from the chamber.
  • the collecting surface can be in the form of a deposition second die which can be of any suitable shape or contour; for instance, it can contain an impressionof a gear wheel, or a connecting rod for an automobile.
  • the collecting surface may also simply be a plain surface.
  • the stream of molten metal or metal alloy may be atomised into a spray of hot, metal particles by the impingement of high velocity gas jets.
  • a spray of fine, molten metal particles can be produced from which heat is extracted in flight by the relatively cold gas jets so that the metal particles can be either solid, partly-solid/partly-liquid or liquid at the moment of impacting the deposition die.
  • the particles On impacting the die surface the particles deform, coalesce and build up, to form a coherent, hot mass of deposited metal which has a finely divided grain structure.
  • the preferred method is to shape and simultaneously work (i.e., forge or press) the metal deposit without the addition of heat after the deposition operation.
  • This forming operation is normally carried out as soon as the required mass of metal has been deposited onto the die so that the deposit is hotfworked but, when necessary, the sprayed die block, which is also suitably contoured, then shapes the top portion of the sprayed deposit when the dies are loaded against each other. Any surplus metal can be forced out of the die cavity into suitably designed flash gutters. In this way shaped, hot-worked precision metal articles can be manufactured.
  • the hot, sprayed deposit in the deposition die may be removed from the die, for instance by an ejection mechanism, and transferred rapidly into another suitably shaped die block which may be the lower die of a die set.
  • the subsequent forming of the hot metal can then be rapidly completed by loading the shaped top die against the bottom die and a hot-worked, shaped precision metal article is produced.
  • metal particles can be sprayed into a container, into the base of which an appropriately shaped orifice die is located.
  • the hot deposit of metal particles can then be forced through the die by the application of pressure (by means of, for instance, an hydraulically driven ram) to produce an extruded product of the same cross-section as that of the orifice die.
  • extruded articles can be produced by indirect extrusion, the shaped orifice die being located in the ram instead of in the base of the container.
  • shaped precision metal articles can be rapidly produced from molten metal and metal alloys and, therefore, the invention is particularly well suited to mass-production methods.
  • the degree of porosity being a function of several factors, notably the temperature, mass and velocity of the metal particles on deposition. Values of these factors, in turn, can depend on one or more of the process parameters; namely, the geometry of the atomising system, the temperature of the molten metal prior to atomisation; the distance which the particles have to travel before being deposited (hereinafter termed the spray distance);.the mass ratio of atomising gas to metal being atomised; the relative velocity between the of dissimilar metals.
  • metallic and/or nonmetallic powders, fibres, filaments or whiskers can be incorporated in the sprayed deposit during the deposition operation.
  • the molten metal (or alloy) stream is atomised by the impingement on it of one or more gas jets and generally the greater the velocity and flow rate of the gas jets the finer are the particles produced;
  • any means of breaking up the molten metal stream can be used in conjunction with gas jets'which serve to comminute further the molten metal particles and to extract heat from them; for instance, a rotating disc atomiser in congas jets and the molten metal stream; the temperature and pressure of the atomising gas; and the temperature of the deposition die.
  • the degree of porosity of the sprayed deposit can be reduced simply by densification or compaction; this can be achieved, for instance, by applying pressure to the deposit by means of an hydraulically operated ram or top die. Therefore, metal articles may be fabricated in a wide range of porosity by the method of the invention. For instance, articles can be produced with a porosity of approximately percent or they can be produced with a porosity effectively equal to zero, or they can have a porosityof any value between these two values. The actual value of the porosity depends primarily on the temperature, size andvelocity of the particles on deposition and on the. nature and loading of the subsequent forming operation (if this is required).
  • Articles can be produced in accordance with the invention in most ferrous or non-ferrous metals or alloys which can be melted and atomised; e.g., carbon steels, alloy steels, aluminium, aluminium alloys, brasses, and phosphor bronzes. in addition, articles can be fabricated from a mixture of metals which are not mutually soluble in the liquid state as is the case with some of the existing powder metallurgical methods.
  • the mixing of the different metals can be achieved by. spray depositing dissimilar metals either simultaneously, so that mixing of the particles occurs whilst they are in flight, or one after the other so that a sprayed deposit is produced with a structure which consists basically of layers junction.
  • peripheral gas jets can be used. Any suitable gas may be used to atomisethe stream of molten metal, but it isoften desirable to use nitrogen or argon or some other inert or reducing gas, so that oxidation of the metal particles is minimised. if oxidation of the particles is not undesirable, compressed air can be used as an atomising medium.
  • the deposition die is disposed within a spray chamber which can be fitted with suit able filters which allow the expanding gas to exhaust but which prevents loss of metallic powders. Any particles which do not adhere to the deposition die (i.e., over-sprayed particles) can be collected from the bottom of this chamber and subsequently re-melted for further spraying and deposition processes. Thus, any oversprayed particles of metal can'be 're-used in this process (or could be used as a powdered metal product) and as no expensive operations have been performed on this metal (it has only been atomised) the financial loss incurred by overspraying is minimal.
  • the chamber can be constructed simply of welded mild steel panels which may have water-cooled jackets fitted where necessary to remove surplus heat and somaintain the surfaces of the spray chamber at temperatures low enough for safe working during operation. If desired, an inert or reducing atmosphere can be maintained up to, for example, the forging press and also during any subsequent forging (or other forming) operation.
  • the collecting surface onto which the hot metal particles are deposited can be of a suitable shape and if the surface also acts as the lower die of a die set in, for instance, a forging-operation it must be capable of withstanding the stresses involved. In addition it must be resistant to wear that may occur during the deposition of hot metal particles and the subsequent forming operation.
  • dies are made from nickel-chromiummolybdenum steel for the production of forged steel articles or chromium-molybdenum-vanadium steel for the forging of non-ferrous alloys or for steel forgings 'where lower temperatures are encountered.
  • nickel based alloys or metallic carbides can be used to make the dies.
  • One or more sprays of hot, metal particles may be employed in order to obtain the required rate of deposition and/or the required area of deposition. in those cases which involve several sprays, they may be em ployed to act either simultaneously, or consecutively to produce the required shape and mass of the sprayed deposit. These objectives may also be achieved by relative movements between the deposition die and the spray (or sprays) of hot, metal particles. These movements can occur in any suitable plane (e.g., laterally or axially) and can be of any suitable form (e.g., rotary or oscillatory).
  • a suitably shaped masking plate may be used; sprayed metal particles being deposited onto this in preference to the deposition die block.
  • the masking plate or plates can be removed before themetal deposited into the die cavity is forged or pressed.
  • such masking plates can be used at the edges of the deposition die so that metal is deposited only in the shaped section of the-die, i.e., metal which normally would overspray the shaped die is deposited onto the masking plates.
  • the masking plate or plates can be arranged to move away from deposition die at a rate similar to that at which the thickness of the deposit builds up.
  • Over-spraying of the deposition die can also be reduced by modifying the shape of the spray by suitable changes in the arrangement and geometry of the atomising gas-jets.
  • any surplus metal that has been deposited on the die block can be removed by other mechanical means, for example, by means of a suitably shaped trimming tool or cutter. This is normally carried out before the subsequent forming operation.
  • the deposition surface of the die cavity does not usually require special treatment to ensure optimum adhesion prior to deposition, as the surface finish of the formed component conforms to the surface finish of the dies.
  • the application of a suitable releasing agent to the surfaces of the dies aids the ejection of the formed component from the dies.
  • the porosity of the coherent mass of deposited metal particles is minimal.
  • the temperature, size, velocity and degree of solidification of the metal particles have to be such that on impacting the die surface they readilyflatten, coalesce and buildup to form a coherent deposit which has a fine grain structure (this is essential toreduce segregation problems particularly in highly alloyed materials).
  • condition of the deposit can depend to a large extent on the temperature, size and velocity of the hot particles on impacting the deposition die and as these factors can be altered by variations in the process parameters; for example, the temperature of the deposit can be increased simply by increases in the temperature of the deposition die,.the molten metal prior to atomising and the flow-rate of the molten metal; alternatively reductions in the spray height, the flow-rate and the velocity of the atomising gas also result in an increase in the tempera.- ture of the mass of particles in the depositiondie.
  • the metal to be atomised is heated to between 100 and 200C above its melting point and then poured through a nozzle (between 3 and 7 mm bore), atthe exit of which the stream of molten metal is atomisedby means of high velocity jets of nitrogen gas.
  • the atomising gas is fed to an annular'atomising system which is located at the periphery of the molten stream.
  • gas is suppliedto the atomiser at pressures greater than approximately lb/in gauge; the actual value depending on the design of the atomiser, the required temperature of deposition, the diameter of the molten metal stream, etc.
  • a typical gas pressure for atomising a 3 mm diameter stream of molten aluminium is 60 lbs/in gauge, the atomiser comprising 12 outlet holes each 1 mm in diameter, on a pitch circle diameter of 15 mm.
  • the temperature of the atomising gas can be varied over a considerable range, but is usually at room temperature (i.e., about 20C) and the gas consumption is generally greater than 700 ft /ft of metal sprayed. By these means a spray of hot metal particles of median size between and 200 microns can be obtained.
  • the resultant spray of hot metal particles is directed into a deposition die, which is placed at such a distance from the atomising system so that most of the particles, on impacting the die are at the solidus temperature of the metal or are just solid.
  • Typical values of the distance between the atomising system and the surface of the deposition die i.e., the spray distance
  • for the production of an aluminium (or aluminium alloy) component are in the range of 20 cm to 45 cm.
  • the die On impacting the die the particles flatten and build up to form a coherent mass at a temperature suitable for the subsequent hot-forming operation which can be performed without the .addition of heat.
  • the approximate hot-working temperature for'aluminium and/or its alloys is typically 450C.
  • the die can be held at a desired temperature; e.g., between 100 and 200C, to prevent drastic cooling of the initially deposited layers of particles.
  • the pressure required for hot-working depends pri- .marily on the alloy used and its temperature.
  • the pressure applied to the deposited metal, between the deposition and top dies can be up to 13 tons/in of face area of the component.
  • parts, having a porosity of approximately 50 percent, can be produced for use as impact energy absorbers as, for example, during collisions involving automobiles.
  • it is desirable that the rigid cabin which contains the driver and passengers is protected in front and at the rear by respective crumpling zones formed from deformable parts having a high energy absorption capacity.
  • Spray-formed, porous parts of this nature may also be used as energy absorbing liners in the protective covers of highspeed grinding wheels.
  • Products having a relatively high value of porosity may be produced by a spray of coarse, metal particles which, at the moment of deposition are moving slowly and have solidified or are mostly solid. On impacting the deposition die these particles do not deform readily and a shaped, coherent deposit with large interparticulate voids is formed.
  • the degree of porosity of spray-formed precision articles can be controlled easily by variations in the process parameters, as discussed above, so that shaped, metal articles can be manufactured over 'a wide range of porosities.
  • porous bearings, filters and the like can be manufactured simply by spraying the metal particles at the appropriate conditions into a suitably shaped die. If necessary the sprayed deposit can be pressed to obtain the required value of porosity and/or a suitable shape.
