Ti-6Al-4V 단조 디스크의 미세조직 분석

Analysis of Microstructures in a Forged Ti-6Al-4V Disk

The mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-4V greatly vary for changes of microstructures. Therefore, when manufacturing components with this material, it is important to understand the influence of process parameters to the resulting microstructures. In the present investgation, it was attempted to relate the process parameters with the microstructures in a hot forged Ti-6Al-4V disk. The investigation was carried out by a rigid thermo-viscoplastic FEM analysis, flow stress measurements and microstructure studies. It was found that the dynamic recrystallization would hardly occur in this material and that variations of strain, strain rate and temperature of several locations in the disk were below the assumed dynamic recrystallization zone. These findings confirmed the experimental obervations that the microstructures in the disk were only deformed without being recrystallized.
