In recent years, with the continuous research and development of titanium, there are more and more kinds of titanium materials. Titanium wire is one of the common titanium materials in life.
Generally speaking, titanium and Grade 5 Ti-6Al-4V Titanium Wire refers to titanium products supplied in the form of discs, and some are supplied in the form of straight wires. As far as the diameter is concerned, the division standard of titanium wire and titanium rod is not strict, and each country has different standards. my country's wire standard "GB3623-83" only shows that the diameter of titanium and titanium alloy wire is not greater than 6mm.
1. Classification
According to different properties, titanium and titanium alloys can be used to prepare wires with different requirements, generally divided into: pure titanium wire, titanium alloy wire, pure titanium glasses wire, titanium straight wire, titanium welding wire, titanium hanging wire, titanium disc Wire, titanium bright wire, medical titanium wire, titanium-nickel alloy wire, each has a different purpose. For example, pure titanium spectacle wire is mainly used to make spectacle brackets, titanium hanger wire is used to hang weights, and titanium-nickel alloy wire is commonly used as memory alloy material.
The finished products of titanium and surgical medical titanium wire are generally hard (Y) and annealed (M), and the surface can be divided into pickling surface and bright surface.
2. Application
Titanium wire also perfectly "inherits" the advantages of titanium and titanium alloys, with a series of good corrosion resistance, high specific strength, non-magnetic, high biocompatibility, low impedance to ultrasonic waves and good shape memory function. Excellent characteristics.
Therefore, titanium wire is widely used in many fields such as aerospace, petrochemical, medical and health, automobile, construction, and sports and leisure products.
And in recent years, due to its continuous development, its variety has become more and more diverse, which provides more choices for its application in high-performance industrial products and consumer products.
3. The main factors affecting the tensile force of titanium wire
With the development of the national economy, the demand for titanium and titanium alloy wire is increasing, and it is currently in a state of short supply, with great potential for development.
(1) Mechanical properties of metals. Closely related to the yield strength of the metal being stretched. Generally, there is a linear relationship between the yield strength of a stretched metal and the tensile force, that is, as the strength of the stretched metal increases, the tensile force increases.
(2) Degree of deformation. The tensile force increases with the degree of deformation.
(3) Stretching speed. In the practical range of stretching speed, the effect of stretching speed on stretching force is not very obvious. Just at the moment of starting the equipment, the tensile force increases due to the greater acceleration. When the speed is stable, the tensile force does not change with the change of speed.
(4) The length of the sizing belt. Affect the friction force when the metal passes through, the sizing belt increases, and the tensile force also increases.
(5) Mold shape. Die taper and sizing belt length are directly related to tensile force. The increase of the die angle reduces the length of the deformation zone, reduces the vertical pressure and the resulting friction, but the increase of the die angle also increases the deformation resistance in the horizontal direction. When the mold angle is small, the former factor dominates, so the tensile force decreases with the increase of the mold angle; while when the mold angle is large, the latter factor dominates, so the tensile force decreases with the increase of the mold angle increase. Therefore, there is an optimal die angle, and the tensile force is the smallest when stretching at the optimal die angle. Experiments show that the magnitude of the tensile force has a certain relationship with the arc of the mold, but the influence is limited. At the same time, because the manufacture and inspection of the shape of the tapered die hole are relatively easy, the tapered die is often used in production.
(6) Lubrication and friction conditions. The quality of lubricating conditions and lubricants directly affects the magnitude of the tensile force. The difference in tool material and surface roughness is also related to the change of friction coefficient, which causes the change of tensile force.
