2025-09-11

The manufacturing process of mechanical hollow shafts mainly includes forging process, cutting process, extrusion casting process, cross wedge rolling process, etc. The following is a detailed introduction: 1、 Forging process Forging is a common method for manufacturing hollow shafts, which causes plastic deformation of metal materials through pressure and thermal effects, forming hollow shafts with specific shapes and properties. The main steps of forging process include: Material preparation: Select suitable raw materials such as steel ingots, aluminum ingots, etc., and choose appropriate metal materials based on the required hollow shaft performance. Preheating: Heating the raw materials to an appropriate forging temperature to reduce internal stress in the metal and improve plasticity. Forging: Place the heated raw materials into forging equipment (such as forging hammers, presses, rolling mills, etc.), and use pressure to cause plastic deformation of the metal, forming the initial shape of a hollow shaft. Overhauling and elongation: By hammering, rolling, or rolling, the diameter of the hollow shaft is increased or its length is elongated to obtain the desired size. Forging: Forging the two ends of a hollow shaft to form a complete hollow shaft structure. Cooling and heat treatment: Dur...

Wear Resistance Of Precision Steel Shafts

2025-09-11

The wear resistance of precision steel shafts is a critical performance indicator that directly determines their service life, operational stability, and reliability in high-precision applications. Here is a detailed analysis of the factors, mechanisms, and enhancements related to their wear resistance: 1. Factors influencing wear resistance Material selection High-carbon chromium steel (e.g., SUJ2/GCr15): Widely used for its high hardenability and ability to achieve hardness up to HRC 60–62 after heat treatment. Stainless steel (e.g., SUS440C, SUS304): Offers corrosion resistance alongside moderate wear resistance (hardness up to HRC 58–60 for martensitic grades). Case-hardened steels (e.g., 20Cr, 20CrMnTi): Surface hardening via carburizing or nitriding creates a wear-resistant layer (≥ HRC 58) while maintaining a tough core. Surface Hardness Hardness is directly correlated with wear resistance. Precision steel shafts typically require a surface hardness of ≥ HRC 58 to resist abrasive wear. Techniques like induction hardening or chrome plating (900–1,200 HV) further enhance surface hardness. Surface finish A smooth surface (Ra ≤ 0.2 μm) reduces friction and minimizes adhesive wear. Precision grinding and polishing eliminate micro-asperities that could accel...

Core Characteristics Of Chrome-Plated Smooth Shafts

2025-09-11

The core characteristics of chrome-plated smooth shafts are reflected in five aspects: corrosion resistance, wear resistance, high strength, high precision, and functional diversity. A detailed analysis is as follows: 1. Corrosion resistance: Dense protective layer of hard chromium plating The chrome-plated smooth shaft undergoes an electroplating process to form a hard chromium layer on its surface. This layer exhibits extremely high chemical stability, effectively isolating corrosive media such as oxygen, moisture, and salt spray in the air. For example, in marine platforms or chemical equipment, chrome-plated smooth shafts can be exposed to humid, salty, or chemically corrosive environments for extended periods without rusting, significantly extending their service life. This characteristic makes them the preferred material for harsh environments, such as ship rudder systems and lifting mechanisms on offshore drilling platforms. 2. Wear resistance: High hardness of chromium layer reduces friction loss The hardness of the hard chromium layer can exceed 900 HV, far higher than that of ordinary steel (e.g., 45# steel has a hardness of about 200 HV). This high hardness enables chrome-plated smooth shafts to perform exceptionally well under friction and wear, making them particularly suitable fo...

Core Structure Of The Hydraulic Oil Cylinder

2025-09-11

The core structure of a hydraulic oil cylinder can be divided into five main components. 1. Cylinder barrel Function: The cylinder barrel is the main body of the hydraulic oil cylinder. It forms the internal pressure chamber and bears the main working pressure. Characteristics: Typically made of high-strength seamless steel tubes. The inner bore surface requires precision machining, such as honing or rolling, to achieve high dimensional accuracy, geometric precision (e.g., straightness, roundness), and very low surface roughness. This ensures the reliability and service life of the sealing components. It must have sufficient strength and stiffness to withstand system pressure without bursting or excessive expansion. 2. Piston assembly Piston: Installed inside the cylinder barrel, it divides the internal space into two sealed chambers (rod side and blind side). It moves back and forth in a straight line under the push of hydraulic oil. The piston is equipped with piston seals (e.g., Glyd rings, Step seals, U-cups) to prevent leakage of pressure oil between the two chambers (internal leakage). Piston Rod: One end is connected to the piston, and the other end extends outside the cylinder barrel to connect to the load mechanism. It transmits the thrust force of the piston to the external...

Chemical Composition And Manufacturing Process Of Pneumatic Cylinder Tube

2025-09-11

Pneumatic cylinder tube (cylinder tube) is a high-precision seamless steel pipe material, and its chemical composition and manufacturing process have a decisive impact on its performance. The following is a detailed introduction: 1、 Chemical composition The chemical composition of pneumatic cylinder tubes mainly includes elements such as carbon (C), silicon (Si), manganese (Mn), sulfur (S), phosphorus (P), chromium (Cr), etc. These elements each play an important role in steel pipes: Carbon (C): Increases the strength and hardness of steel pipes, but excessive carbon content can reduce their plasticity and toughness. Silicon (Si): improves the elasticity and heat resistance of steel pipes, while also aiding in deoxidation. Manganese (Mn): enhances the strength and hardness of steel pipes, while improving their cold working performance. Sulfur (S) and phosphorus (P): These two elements are often considered harmful in steel pipes because they reduce the plasticity and toughness of the pipes and increase brittleness. Therefore, in the manufacturing process of pneumatic cylinder tubes, it is necessary to strictly control the content of sulfur and phosphorus. Chromium (Cr): improves the corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance of steel pipes, while also helping to form a dense oxide film to p...
