Empty titanium bar rolling

Heating characteristics and hot rolling characteristics of bars for die forging blades and fasteners. The batch materials used in the manufacture of aviation blades in the former Soviet Union are titanium alloy bars such as BT3-1, BT8, BT9, and OT4 with a diameter of 10-60mm. The material for aviation fasteners generally uses BT16 Titanium Industrial Rod with a diameter of 4.0-16mm.

The heating characteristics and hot rolling characteristics of BT3-1, BT8, BT9, and OT4 alloys determine the requirements for bar quality. For example, when the alloy is hot rolled at the temperature of the ot+p phase region, if its deformation is not less than 40%-50%, then the plasticity and fatigue strength indicators of this material are the highest. However, Grade 2 Pure Titanium Sheet at this temperature can significantly increase the deformation resistance of the billet pass and the intermediate pass, increase the unit pressure, and overload the motor of the rolling mill.

In this case, the rolling process should be carried out in two stages:

(1) Pre-emulsification at a temperature higher than a +p—P transition;

(2) Rolling to finished size at the temperature of the hot +P phase region of the alloy. In the final rolling stage, the rolled material should be cooled to a temperature below 650T.

Bars with a diameter greater than 8.0mm, and restocking of bars with a diameter of 4.0-8.0mm, should be rolled under one fire.
