Most carbide tools welding methods previously embedded in the carbon steel or low alloy steel substrate use is closely related to the use of performance cemented carbide welding process, the welding performance has a direct impact on the use of carbide effect. When vacuum brazing tungsten carbide cobalt titanium, welding residual stress must be minimized. Measures must be taken to reduce the braze welding stress can be taken to reduce brazing temperature, preheat and slow cooling, use plastic good solder, plus compensation pads, and other measures to improve the joint structure. When a large area of hard alloy brazing, regardless of intensity, should take special measures to reduce welding stress and prevent cracks.

Heat Treatment of Temper-able Aluminum alloys

  Heat Treatment of Temper-able Aluminum alloys

Aluminum with its alloys is becoming more and more important in the development of lightweight materials for use in the automotive industry. To meet the strength standards required for this purpose, heat treatment of the materials is often necessary.
Sophisticated process engineering provides for increased strength
For the heat treatment of temperable aluminum alloys Shanghai Gehang provides solutions for the process steps annealing, quenching and aging adapted to the specific requirements.heat traetment vacuum furnace.
Annealing is performed at approx. 535 °C for a period of several hours. Mixed aluminum crystals are formed, in which the alloying constituents such as silicon and magnesium are completely dissolved.
Quenching serves for "freezing" this condition. This prevents the precipitation of the alloying constituents dissolved in the mixed crystal.
The subsequent aging is performed at 140 °C to 200 °C for several hours. In this process, the required strength is achieved due to segregation processes in the crystal.
Rendering processes stable and reproducible
The conceptual and construction design of Shanghai Gehang heat treatment plants is performed with the clear objective of accomplishing stable and reproducible processes. The design of the circulating air flow, the definition of the heating zone length (gas-heated or electrically heated), the conveyor concept as well as the design of the quench will be optimized and adapted to the requirements of the actual products before accomplishing this objective. This ensures an equal starting basis for all the products being manufactured with the objective of leaving the production plant as a "first class" end product.
SIMUWU engineer has both in-depth process knowledge and extensive project experience. As a leading manufacturer of heat-treatment plants, with over 60 customer references, Shanghai Gehang is the partner of choice for manufacturers of aluminum structural components for cars and cylinder heads, engine blocks, transmission parts, other aluminum parts, and wheels.

Vacuum Furnace in Aerospace

Under the background of developing the big commercial aircraft in China, high quality aluminum alloy, titanium alloy, heat resistant materials of either wrought super alloy or PM alloy, and composites are requested by the structure and the propulsion of aircraft manufacturing in China. High standard heat treatment processes under aerospace specification is substantial to perform these materials on the demand of strength, fatigue, heat resistance and so on.
The materials used to manufacture engine components are lighter, stronger and can tolerate harsher service environments. Unique manufacturing processes that reduce waste and cost are being used to fabricate these components.
The gas turbine engines of today's aircraft are required to run at higher temperatures and with greater efficiency, yet meet the demands for longer time between overhauls and reduced maintenance costs.
While surface treatment have long been employed as key elements of gas turbine engines, new coating materials can withstand higher temperatures, and improve overall operating efficiency. For airframe components including landing gear system, traditional plating is increasingly replaced by environmentally friendly processes.

Traditionally carbonitriding is also known as cyanide.
Now as a medium temperature gas carbonitriding and low temperature gas carbonitriding (i.e., gas soft nitriding) are more widely application. Medium temperature gas carbonitriding's main purpose is to improve the steel hardness, wear resistance and fatigue strength. Low temperature gas carbonitriding with nitriding is given priority to, its main purpose is to improve the wear resistance and resistance to bite of steel; Conditioning treatment: general practice combining high temperature quenching and tempering heat treatment known as conditioning treatment. Conditioning treatment is widely used in various important structural parts, especially those who work under alternating load of connecting rod, bolts, gears and shaft, etc. Conditioning treatment after get tempered sorbite organization, its mechanical performance than the same hardness of normalizing sorbite for optimal organization. It depends on the high temperature tempering temperature and hardness and tempering stability of steel and the workpiece with the size of section, generally between HB200-350; Brazing: the two kinds of artifacts together with solder heat treatment process.
