Components and methods of processing such components from precipitation-strengthened alloys so that the components exhibit desirable grain sizes following a supersolvus heat treatment. The method includes consolidating a powder of the alloy to form a billet having an average grain size. The billet is then forged at a temperature below the solvus temperature to form a forging having an average grain size of not coarser than the grain size of the billet. The billet is then forged at a total strain of at least 5%, after which at least a portion of the forging is heat treated at a temperature below the solvus temperature to pin grains within the portion. The entire forging can then be heat treated at a temperature above the solvus temperature of the alloy without coarsening the grains in the portion.

A method for near net shape forging a titanium component includes heating a titanium billet to a temperature in the alpha-beta temperature range and extruding the titanium billet into a first die having a temperature approximately 500° F. below the temperature of the titanium billet. A system for near net shape forging a titanium component includes a titanium billet having a temperature in the alpha-beta temperature range and a punch in contact with the titanium billet. A first die proximate to the titanium billet for receiving the titanium billet has a temperature approximately 500° F. below the temperature of the titanium billet.
摘要:
A forging die and process suitable for producing large forgings, including turbine disks and other rotating components of power-generating gas turbine engines, using billets formed by powder metallurgy. The forging die includes a backplate, and segments arranged in a radial pattern about a region on a surface of the backplate. Each segment has a backside facing the backplate and an interface surface facing away from the backplate, with the interface surface being adapted to engage the billet during forging. The segments are physically coupled to the surface of the backplate in a manner that enables radial movement of the segments relative to the backplate.
