Rolled ring forging is a method of manufacturing ring forgings through ring rolling technology.
Ring forgings are precision ring or cylindrical metal components manufactured through processes such as radial and axial rolling, and have the characteristics of dense internal structure and fine grains. Ring rolling technology uses continuous local plastic deformation to reduce the wall thickness of the metal billet and gradually expand the ring diameter during the rotation process, thereby realizing the rolling forming of the ring.
Basic principles and processes of rolled ring forging
The basic principle of ring rolling is to use rollers to continuously and locally pressurize the ring billet so that the ring billet undergoes plastic deformation during the rotation process. According to different rolling methods, it can be divided into radial rolling and radial-axial rolling. Radial rolling is suitable for small and medium-sized rings, while radial-axial rolling is suitable for super-large rings and special-shaped cross-section rings.
Application fields and advantages of rolled ring forging
Rolled ring forging technology is widely used in high-end equipment manufacturing, such as aircraft engines, rocket fuel tanks, nuclear power reactor vessels, high-speed rail wheels, etc. Its advantages include high precision, wide processing range and high material utilization. The geometric accuracy of cold-rolled rings can reach the accuracy of fine turning, and the geometric accuracy of hot-rolled rings is equivalent to that of die-forged rings, and the material utilization rate can reach 70%-90%. In addition, rolled ring forging also has the advantages of small load, high efficiency, full and uniform deformation, material saving, no impact, low noise, good organizational performance and good working environment.
