摘要:
A method of producing an aluminum tube covered by a layer of zinc using a continuous cold forming machine which includes the steps of: providing an extrusion die having a heating device and an inert gas-blowing tube to the cold forming machine, introducing an aluminum prime wire to the cold forming machine, extruding the prime wire through the extrusion die to form an aluminum tube while heating the die to a high temperature and blowing an inert gas across the die toward the tube to provide a high-temperature, non-oxidized aluminum tube, and flame spraying zinc powder onto the outer non-oxidized surface of the tube to cover the surface and provide an anticorrosive layer of zinc on the aluminum tube.
摘要:
A method of cladding the ends of a length of previously clad pipe with a clad of greater thickness than the clad for the balance of the length in order to allow for threading, including the steps of boring, facing and turning the end of the pipe, plating by electroless deposition the faying surfaces of a nickel-base alloy cladding cylinder, assembling the cylinder to the length of pipe, assembling a close fitting tooling mandrel on the inside of the cladding cylinders, the tooling mandrel being made of a metal possessing a higher coefficient of thermal expansion than does the pipe, placing the subassembly within a housing having an induction coil therein, evacuating the housing atmosphere and back filling with an inert gas such as argon, heating the subassembly to about 1650.degree. to 2100.degree. F., thereby melting the nickel base alloy and expanding the mandrel diameter more than the subassembly diameter to obtain necessary pressure to eliminate fit-up gaps thereby metallically bonding the cladding member to the end of the pipe by means of the mechanism of liquid interface diffusion bonding.
摘要:
An aluminum or aluminum alloy shape for manufacture of heat exchangers is coated with a metallic layer of a zinc-base alloy constituting a fluxless soldering or low temperature brazing material when heated. A process for direct coating of formed aluminum shapes in nascent state includes the steps of providing a non-reactive atmosphere around the shape, providing a coating material of zinc-base alloy and bringing the aluminum shape and the coating material into contact and maintaining the contact at an elevated temperature for a predetermined period of time for forming a coherent coating on the aluminum shape.
摘要:
A method of cladding a base plate of carbon steel, including the steps of plating by electroless deposition the faying surface of the plate slab, positioning a cladding plate, on the the plated faying surface, welding both plates together at three edges to form a seal, attaching a gas reservoir at the fourth side thus forming a sealed subassembly, evacuating the space formed in the subassembly between the two plates of water vapor and oxygen, heating the subassembly to about 1650.degree. to 2100.degree. F. thereby melting the bonding metal alloy, and hot rolling the heated assembly to metallically bond the cladding plate to the steel plate by means of the mechanism of liquid interface diffusion bonding.
摘要:
A process for producing a hollow aluminum extrudate for use in a vacuum comprising the steps of hermetically closing the forward open end of a hollow shaped material immediately after extrusion, subsequently extruding a predetermined length of shaped material, cutting off the predetermined length of extruded material and hermetically closing the cut end thereof at the same time, and cutting off the closed ends. During extrusion, the inner surface of the hollow portion of the shaped material is substantially held out of contact with the atmosphere to inhibit a hydrous oxide on the inner surface while permitting formation of a compact oxide film thereon.
摘要:
Method of forming a workpiece comprising (a) providing a tool and a workpiece, wherein the workpiece has an initial shape; (b) placing the workpiece and the tool in contact, applying force to the tool and/or the workpiece, and moving the tool and/or the workpiece to effect a change in the initial shape of the workpiece by forming; and (c) providing a jet of cryogenic fluid and impinging essentially all of the jet of cryogenic fluid on a surface of the tool.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for performing continuous extrusion of a metallic material, such as copper, so that the material to be extruded (1) is fed in the extrusion member (4) by means of a feed member (3) provided with a groove on its peripheral wall (2) and by an abutment (5) arranged in said groove, so that the groove (8) is protected against oxidation by arranging for at least part of the peripheral wall (2) of the feed member (3) a gas-protecting member (7). The invention also relates to said equipment.
摘要:
Method for joining components of metals and alloys, particularly components of light metals, including alloys of light metals and possibly hybrids/composites containing light metals. Oxide on the surfaces to be joined is removed immediately prior to joining, and the groove is filled with a metallic filler material by means of extrusion while the supply of oxygen to the groove is restricted. The invention is also directed to a device for conducting the method, which may optionally include means for heating, means for measurement of temperature and pressure during extrusion as well as controlling means for automation of the joining process.
摘要:
A machine and method for corrugating a metal foil strip utilizes an enclosure defining a chamber and a controllable heat source for heating the chamber. The chamber may optionally include at least one gas that is also heated by the heat source. At least one tool set received in the chamber forms corrugations in the metal foil strip. Foil entry feeder elements supply and guide the metal foil strip from outside the chamber into the chamber and to the tool set. A drive for the tool set is mounted outside the chamber and coupled to the tool set to actuate the tool set. Foil exit delivery elements guide the strip from the tool set and out of the chamber. Where required to prevent oxidation of the foil strip, a source supplying an inert gas to the chamber at a controlled rate is used.
