Information

High-speed steel: It is high-carbon and high-alloy steel. According to chemical composition, it can be divided into tungsten series and molybdenum series steel, and according to cutting performance, it can be divided into ordinary high-speed steel and high-performance high-speed steel. High-speed steel must be strengthened by heat treatment. In the quenched state, the iron, chromium, part of tungsten and carbon in the high-speed steel form extremely hard carbides, which can improve the wear resistance of the steel (hardness can reach HRC64-68). The other part of tungsten is dissolved in the matrix and increases the red hardness of the steel.

The red hardness of high-speed steel can reach 650 degrees.

High-speed steel has good strength and toughness. After sharpening, the cutting edge is sharp and the quality is stable. It is generally used to manufacture small, complex-shaped tools.

Cemented carbide: It is a micron-order refractory high-hardness metal carbide powder, which is made by firing at high temperature and high pressure with cobalt, molybdenum, nickel, etc. as a binder. The content of high-temperature carbides in cemented carbide exceeds that of high-speed steel, with high hardness (HRC75-80) and good wear resistance.

Hard alloy red hardness can reach 800-1000 degrees.

The cutting speed of cemented carbide is 4-7 times higher than that of high-speed steel. High cutting efficiency.

The disadvantages are low bending strength, poor impact toughness, high brittleness, and low impact and vibration resistance.

Milling

Milling cutter material requirements

Basic requirements for folding milling cutters to cut parts of material 1) High hardness and wear resistance: at room temperature, the cutting part of the material must have enough hardness to cut into the workpiece; With high wear resistance, the tool does not wear, prolong the service life. 2) good heat resistance, cutting tool in cutting process will produce a lot of heat, especially at higher cutting speed, the temperature will be very high, therefore, the cutting tool material should possess good heat resistance, both remained high hardness at high temperature, has to continue cutting performance, this is the nature of the high temperature hardness, also known as hot hard or red hardness. 3) high strength and good toughness: in the cutting process, the tool to withstand a lot of impact, so the tool material to have a high strength, otherwise easy to fracture and damage. Because milling cutter will be impacted and vibrated, therefore, milling cutter material should also have good toughness, it is not easy to collapse edge, broken. Folding milling cutter common materials 1) High speed tool steel (referred to as high speed steel, front steel, etc.), divided into general and special purpose high speed steel two kinds. It has the following characteristics: A, high content of alloy elements tungsten, chromium, molybdenum, vanadium, quenching hardness up to HRC62-70. It can still maintain high hardness at 600℃. B, good edge strength and toughness, strong vibration resistance, can be used to manufacture cutting speed of general cutting tools, for poor rigidity of the machine tool, the use of high speed steel milling cutter, can still smooth cutting. C, good process performance, forging, processing and grinding are relatively easy, but also can manufacture more complex shape of the tool. D, compared with cemented carbide materials, it still has the disadvantages of lower hardness, red hardness and poor wear resistance. 2) cemented carbide: metal carbide, tungsten carbide, titanium carbide and cobalt based metal binder by powder metallurgy process. Its main characteristics are as follows: A, can withstand high temperature, around 800-1000℃ can still maintain good cutting performance, cutting can choose 4-8 times higher than high-speed steel cutting speed. B, high hardness at room temperature, good wear resistance. C, low bending strength, poor impact toughness, the blade is not easy to grind very sharp. Commonly used cemented carbide can be divided into three categories: Tungsten cobalt cemented carbides (YG) Commonly used brands YG3, YG6, YG8, in which the number represents the percentage of cobalt content, the more cobalt content, the better toughness, the more impact and vibration resistance, but will reduce the hardness and wear resistance. Therefore, the alloy is suitable for cutting cast iron and non-ferrous metals, and can also be used for cutting heavy impact blank and hardened steel and stainless steel parts. Titanium cobalt cemented carbide (YT) Commonly used grades are YT5, YT15, YT30, the number represents the percentage of titanium carbide. Carbide containing titanium carbide, can improve the bond temperature of steel, reduce friction coefficient, and can make the hardness and wear resistance slightly increased, but reduce the bending strength and toughness, make the quality of brittle, therefore, this kind of alloy is suitable for cutting steel parts. General cemented carbide In the above two kinds of hard alloy to add just the right amount of rare metal carbides, such as tantalum and niobium carbide carbide, make its grain refining, improve its hardness under normal temperature and high temperature hardness, wear resistance, bonding temperature and oxidation resistance, can make the toughness of the alloy increased, therefore, this kind of hard alloy cutter has good cutting performance and generality, Its brands are :YW1, YW2 and YA6, etc., because its price is more expensive, it is mainly used for difficult processing materials, such as high strength steel, heat resistant steel, stainless steel and so on.

April 19, 2022 Cobalt lithium nickel market

April 19, 2022 Cobalt lithium nickel market   The cobalt price is stable and has a slight correction. Recently, the liquidity of the domestic market is relatively slow due to the impact of the epidemic, the supply side is limited by geographical pressure and logistics capacity, and the demand side is generally in a general mood due to the slowdown of consumption in electric vehicles and alloys. Market overall trading sentiment remains cautious, local talks have loosened, wait-and-see macro news shock. Lithium prices remain a stalemate, industry is still positive for the medium and long term power energy storage consumption expectations, but the recent geopolitical conflicts and epidemic repeatedly caused supply chain disruption, resulting in limited production and operation activities of automotive companies, affecting the upstream lithium material consumption reduction, part of the product price from a small adjustment. However, due to the current lithium supply is still in the tight range, the overall bottom of the market is still strong. Nickel prices relatively stable, is mainly due to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine under the background, the international market of nickel raw material supply insufficient still, superposition of the main changes in the economic and trade measures, the futures market is still in the game, there's more uncertainty and risk, firms trading cautious, wait-and-see stainless steel and the electric car market demand.

Application of cemented carbide: domestic shield machine exported to Portugal for the first time

On April 6th, a "cloud acceptance" across thousands of miles was held in Tianjin Dongjiang as promised. The earth pressure balance shield machine manufactured by China Railway Equipment, a state-owned enterprise, successfully passed the acceptance of overseas customers. This is the first time that China's shield machine is exported to Portugal. Shield tunneling machine is a kind of tunneling machine using shield tunneling method. It is closely related to cemented carbide, which is known as "industrial tooth", that is, cemented carbide is the preferred material for cutting tools of high-performance shield tunneling machine.   Cemented carbide is a hard compound by refractory metal such as tungsten carbide, niobium carbide and binder composed of elements such as metals, such as cobalt, nickel alloy material, high hardness, high wear resistance, high strength, strong shock resistance, good toughness and heat resistance and corrosion resistance, so better than other materials such as steel manufacture tool is more suitable for application in the shield construction machine.   The basic working principle of the shield machine is that a steel component of a cylinder pushes forward along the axis of the tunnel while excavating the soil. It is mainly used for subway, railway, highway, municipal, hydropower and other tunnel projects. Due to the harsh working environment of the shield machine, that is, the external water pressure and formation pressure is large, it is easy to cause the wear and scrap of the shield cutter head. This also requires the shield cutter head to have high enough hardness, strength and toughness.   It is understood that the performance of hard alloy shield cutter is closely related to the ratio of raw materials, the morphology and particle size of raw materials. Under normal circumstances, the higher the content of tungsten carbide, the higher the hardness of cemented carbide tool, the worse the toughness; The more complete the crystal shape of tungsten carbide particles and the larger the grain size, the better the toughness of alloy tools. At present, China's tungsten carbide grain size has been able to achieve 9 microns, which makes China's production of hard alloy toughness and wear resistance to reach the international advanced level.   It is reported that the Portuguese import of China's shield machine is the main reason for the country to build a drainage tunnel project. The drainage tunnel project is a single-track tunnel, divided into two sections, with a total length of 5.5 km and a maximum rock strength of 135 mpa. According to the characteristics of the project, China Railway Equipment not only optimized the cutter head of shield machine, but also equipped with advanced control system, so that the whole machine can meet the requirements of soft soil layer and rock tunneling. The equipment is expected to be disassembled and shipped in May.
