Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a cylindrical hollow body made of copper or a copper alloy as a semi-finished product for a crucible or a Casting roll according to the features in the preamble of claim 1.
  • a common method for producing a cylindrical hollow body as a semi-finished product for a crucible or a casting roll the steps of casting-punching-forging are used together.
  • a continuously cast block in the longitudinal direction compressed The maximum is so that the block does not buckle when compressed Ratio of its length to its diameter about 3: 1.
  • the compressed block will then the aid of a piercing mandrel over its entire length as seen in the direction of the upset Extension punched.
  • the perforated block is then heated again and in this second heat Forging expanded over a mandrel.
  • the expanded block is then usually made into one by open-die forging Formed hollow body with or without flange, depending on whether from this In the end, a crucible or a casting roller is to be manufactured.
  • a crucible or a casting roller is to be manufactured.
  • the invention is based on the object Process for producing a cylindrical hollow body made of copper or a To create copper alloy as a semi-finished product for a crucible or a casting roller, the more economical application with improved material properties guaranteed.
  • the hollow body produced in this way can then be turned into a crucible or a conventional manner Casting roller can be redesigned further.
  • the invention therefore creates the conditions for the Total degree of deformation and the homogeneity of the deformation due to Process steps punching the cylindrical block with the following Drawing presses can be significantly improved. Due to the higher dimensional accuracy there are also significantly smaller additions of lost material. The Efficiency is significantly increased.
  • cylindrical hollow bodies as semi-finished products a crucible or a casting roll by rounding and longitudinal seam welding of To manufacture sheets.
  • the invention has the additional advantage that the material properties over the entire scope of the Hollow body are homogeneous.
  • the combination of expanding the block and stretching the Crystal orientation of the hollow body to be manufactured can be influenced so that a Orientation of the grain structure in the longitudinal or transverse direction arises. So it can Grain orientation and thus the strength through this way of Main direction of stress can be adjusted. Accordingly, in particular better service life can be expected from casting rolls made from hollow bodies.
  • FIG. 1 is a cylindrical block made of SF-Cu, CuAg, CuNi or one precipitation-hardening Cu alloy. Block 1 is continuously cast. The ratio of the length L to the diameter D is up to about 6: 1.
  • the block 1 according to FIG. 1 is divided into a corresponding to the representation of FIG Die 2 used, which is located in a receptacle 3.
  • Block 1 is in broken lines shown.
  • the Die 2 prevents block 1 from buckling during upsetting.
  • the compressed block 1 a Center punch 4 pressed in according to arrow PF1 and block 1 a perforated.
  • the material of the perforated block 1 b then rises between the inner wall 5 of the die 2 and the surface 6 of the piercing mandrel 4 upwards in a hollow cylinder.
  • the Punching in the direction of arrow PF1 is carried out in such a way that on the punched block 1 b a bottom 7 remains.
  • the perforated block 1 b is then used in accordance with the illustration in FIG an expanding mandrel 8 which is moved in the direction of the arrow PF2, wherein its inner diameter changes from ID to ID1 and its outer diameter changes from AD Increase AD1.
  • the block 1b to be expanded is based on one Abutment plate 9 from.
  • the stretching can be done so that the expanded block 1 c is not complete is moved by the drawing die 11, so that then at the free end 13 of the Hollow body 12 a collar 14 is formed.
  • This collar 14 can be used to weld a Flange are used.
