Nickel-Based Slag-Remelted Superalloy for Ti-Alloys Isothermal Forging Die-Tool

Abstract:

The work purpose is to evaluate the application of nickel-based CrNi73CuBeTeAl superalloy (tungsten-free), made by electroslag remelting as a die tool material for isothermal forming. Isothermal deformation was simulated by tests for high-temperature cyclic creep. The specimens with high and × in plan dimensions (both parallel and perpendicular to the ingots central axis) were cut from the bottom, top and central zone, near the lateral surface and in the ingots central axis area. The tests were performed at 900, 940 and 980 °C constant temperature with 100, 200 and 300 MPa cyclic pressure in 0.02, 0.2 and 2.0 mm/s velocities range corresponded to 10-3-10-1 1/s strain rates. Such tools application field is compressor blades Ti-forgings die forging and sizing with ε = 1.0-3.0% residual upsetting deformation of dies during operation. It is shown that the die life can be extended to 400-700 loading cycles at 850-950 °C operating temperature and pressure up to 150 MPa.
