Description

METHOD FOR TREATING THE INNER SURFACE OF A TUBE
The invention relates to a method according to claim 1 for manufacturing a copper or copper alloy tube. In particular, the invention relates to a cleaning treatment carried out on the inner surface of an extruded tube before the tube is worked to its final size.
When extruding seamless metal tubes, such as copper tubes, a solid metal billet is by means of a mandrel worked to the form of a tube. When lubricating the mandrel surface, there are used for instance graphite-based materials, the contents of which may be harmful in the further processing of the tubes. Hot extruded tube billets, i.e. extruded tubes, are thereafter drawn to their final size. After extrusion, the extruded tubes can also be worked to their final size by rolling.
In the drawing steps, there are generally used oil-based lubricating materials, which may leave carbon-bearing impurities on the inner surface of the tube. It is well known that the lengthwise grooves created on the inner surface of an extruded tube may form fold-backs in the tube drawing steps. Lubricating materials used both in the extrusion and in the drawing steps can remain in said fold-backs. It has generally been found out that the carbon content of the inner surfaces cannot necessarily be adjusted to the required level by means of known degreasing washings or other solvent treatments, which causes problems for instance in the metal coating of the inner surface. Especially problems have been detected for example in the adhesion of a tin coating. All in all, it would be important to affect the properties of the inner surface already at the beginning of the tube manufacturing process, in order to even out the grooves created in the tube inner surface already at the extruding step, and to remove all graphite residues therefrom. From the publication EP 335999 there is known a cleaning method for cleaning a copper tube manufactured by drawing. The method relates to the removal of lubricant greases after the drawing by means of sand blasting.
From the FI patent application 20001467 there is known a method for coating the inner surface of copper or copper alloy tubes by a protecting film, particularly tin film, in which method the coating step is preceded by a mechanical treatment of the surface to be coated.
The object of the present invention is to introduce a novel method for manufacturing copper or copper alloy tubes, in which method the inner surface of the extruded tube is subjected to a cleaning treatment before the tube is worked to its final size.
The invention is characterized by what is set forth in the characterizing part of claim 1. Other preferred embodiments of the invention are characterized by what is set forth in the other claims.
Remarkable advantages are achieved by means of the method according to the invention. The invention relates to a method for manufacturing copper or copper alloy tube, which method includes an extrusion step and at least one working step for working the tube to its final size, and according to which method, the tube inner surface is subjected to a cleaning treatment, so that the cleaning treatment is performed on the inner surface of the extruded tube before the tube is worked to its final size. Here a tube means an end product. By means of the invention, it is possible to essentially improve the quality of the inner surface of metal tubes, such as copper tubes. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, a tube is worked to its final size by drawing an extruded tube at least in one step. In this case the cleaning treatment is carried out essentially between the extrusion step and the drawing step. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the tube is worked to its final size by rolling the extruded tube at least in one step. Now the cleaning treatment is carried out essentially between the extrusion step and the rolling step. When the inner surface of a hot extruded tube billet, i.e. an extruded tube, is cleaned essentially before working the tube to its final size, there is achieved a tube end product with an excellent carbon content.
According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the cleaning treatment is carried out mechanically. One method according to the invention is that the cleaning treatment is carried out by treating the inner surface of the extruded tube with a cleaning device that is made of an essentially harder material than the inner surface. Thus also graphite-based impurities are advantageously removed. According to an embodiment of the invention, the employed cleaning device is a steel brush. In this fashion, impurities are advantageously detached from the inner surface. According to an embodiment of the invention, the cleaning device is moved along the inner surface of the extruded tube by means of magnets. According to another embodiment, the cleaning device is moved along the inner surface of the extruded tube by means of an elongate shaft. According to an embodiment, in the cleaning treatment the extruded tube is moved with respect to the cleaning device. One way according to the invention is that the cleaning treatment is carried out by grain blasting, such as sand blasting. By treating the inner surface of the extruded tube created in the extrusion step, i.e. the so-called first inner surface of the tube, mechanically, the grooves created in the tube surface during the extrusion are evened out, and the graphite residues are removed. Consequently, it is not anymore - neither in the extrusion step nor in any further processing steps - necessary to take into account the possible circulation of graphite and carbon contaminations to the end product, but it is possible to concentrate on other matters that are important for the process.
According to the invention, after a mechanical cleaning treatment, the inner surfaces of the extruded tube are blasted by gas. Another way according to the invention is that after a mechanical cleaning treatment, the inner surfaces of the extruded tube are washed by liquid. According to an embodiment of the invention, the tube is subjected to a coating treatment after working the tube to its final size.
An extruded tube treated according to the invention makes it easier to perform further processing, such as metal coating. In addition, it is possible to achieve on the surface such carbon contents that comply to the regulations. By applying the method, the carbon content of the inner surfaces of tube end products can be controlled better than in the prior art. Moreover, savings in the expenses are achieved both in employed work and materials, as well as in the pretreatment steps that require metal coating. By cleaning the initial tube that feeds the whole production process, all further processes up to the end product are remarkably facilitated as regards the requirements for surface cleanness.
The invention is described in more detail below with reference to the appended example.
Example
In the example, there is observed the processing of a tube that in the final measures has an outer diameter of 54 millimeters, from an extruded tube by applying the method according to the invention. The example describes how the inner surface of the extruded tube was cleaned, and how the cleaned extruded tube behaved in test drawings in comparison with a regular uncleaned extruded tube. After test drawings and washings, the inner surface was observed by various different surface test methods. In addition, there was observed the metallic coatability of tubes manufactured according to the invention.
In the extrusion step, all graphite residues and grooves left on the inner surface of the extruded tubes were removed by a cleaning device made of steel. The graphite ingredients were detached by manually rotating the cleaning device along the inner surfaces of the extruded tubes, whereafter the extruded tubes were blasted by pressurized air. The mechanically cleaned extruded tubes were transported to drawing. As a result, it was found out that in the first drawing, a cleaned extruded tube requires a drawing force that is about 5% higher than with an uncleaned extruded tube. After the first drawing, drawing behavior does not differ from the drawing behavior of regular uncleaned extruded tubes.
The qualities of the inner surfaces of a regular uncleaned extruded tube and of a mechanically cleaned extruded tube were compared after the drawings, both visually and by various different surface test methods. The visual observations already showed that after drawings, the surface of the mechanically cleaned extruded tube had a remarkably higher quality. By applying spectroscopic surface test methods, it was found out the after drawings, in the mechanically cleaned extruded tube the carbon content of the inner surface of the tube end product was only a tenth part of the quantity that is after drawings represented on the inner surfaces of an end product of a regular extruded tube. The results were obtained by comparing the percentage shares of carbon, oxygen and copper on the inner surfaces.
By comparing the above mentioned results with an observation system where the atomic percentage shares of the elements of the inner surface are studied as functions of depth, there is also detected that at a given depth, the mechanically cleaned inner surface contains a remarkably lower degree of carbon than the uncleaned inner surface.
In the end, the tubes under comparison were subjected to a degreasing, pickling and coating treatment. The layer thickness of a metallic coating was larger by about 20%, and the parameter describing the adhesion and integrity of the coating was over 5 times better in the tube that was made of the mechanically cleaned extruded tube. It was also found out that in the case of an uncleaned extruded tube, the graphite-containing drawing grooves on the inner surface were clearly visible in the coating.
Various different methods and visual observations for defining the surface carbon content prove that by using the method according to the invention, there is achieved the best inner surface quality in the end product.
For a man skilled in the art, it is obvious that the different modifications of the invention are not restricted to the above described examples, but may vary within the scope of the appended claims.
