The Heat Upsetting Process for the Titanium Alloy Spherical Bone Screws

Article Preview

Abstract:

An advanced heat upsetting technology was studied according to the characteristics of the titanium alloy medical bone screws with spherical head. First, the reasons that punch demoulding is difficult during the upsetting forming have been discussed. Then the forming way with countersunk head in bottom and free forming on top was adopted, and the segmented upsetting die ranging in inner diameter was designed. Finally, the continuous heat upsetting process for medical bone screws was developed. The size, hardness and microstructure of the developed screws meet the standard requirements.
