1. What is vacuum high pressure gas quenching?

Vacuum high pressure gas quenching refers to tool steel, high-speed steel and alloy steel that are easily hardenable materials. After being loaded into the vacuum furnace to reach the vacuum degree specified by the process, it is heated to the critical temperature Ac3 or Ac1 or above, and kept warm according to the process requirements. For a period of time, then quickly fill in high-pressure inert gas (He, Ar) or non-reactive gas N2 or other mixed gas, the room reaches the specified pressure (10bar, 20bar, 40bar), and at the same time turn on the high-power fan to drive the heat-resistant fan. The hot workpiece is blown at high speed. After the hot air flow passes through the special heat exchanger for heat exchange and cooling, the cold air flow purifies the workpiece again, and finally a heat treatment process of martensitic quenching structure is obtained.

  • 300M steel, gas quenching under 10bar N2:

It can be seen from the figure that the hardness of the Ф60 round bar has reached the oil quenching effect (generally about 53HRC), and the core is a lath martensite structure with good hardenability. The Ф80 round bar does not meet the above requirements. This shows that the degree of hardening of the workpiece is affected by the hardening ability of the equipment.

  • 8Cr4Mo4V steel, gas quenching under 0.2MPa N2:

Quenching requirements: hardness 60 ~ 64HRC; organization M2 ~ M4; deformation (cylindrical, flatness) should be controlled between 0.20mm.

When the hardness and microstructure meet the standards, the unqualified rates of the roundness and flatness of the gas quenched workpiece are 20% and 10%, respectively, while that of the oil quenched workpiece are 70% and 70%. It can be seen that gas quenching can significantly reduce the deformation of the workpiece.


4. Advantages of vacuum high pressure gas quenching

  • The surface quality of the workpiece is good, no oxidation, no carbon increase, and no alloying element depletion.

  • The quenching uniformity is good, and the deformation of the workpiece is small.

  • The cooling speed is controllable. The cooling speed is controlled by changing the inflation pressure and airflow direction, and the fan speed (frequency conversion). Ideally, it can be close to isothermal quenching.

  • The whole process has no pollution and no waste gas emission, and the gas quenched workpiece does not need secondary cleaning, which is efficient, energy-saving and environmentally friendly.

6. The main factors affecting the cooling rate of the workpiece

Quenching gas pressureGenerally, the pressure increases, the cooling rate increases, and the pressure increases to 40bar, which is close to the cooling rate in static oil.
Quenching gas flowIncreasing the airflow is beneficial to increase the cooling rate and increase the heat exchange capacity.
Quenching gas flow rateThe faster the quenching gas flow rate, the greater the number of heat exchanges and the faster the speed.
Quenching gas typeDifferent types of quenching gas have different cooling rates for workpieces H2>He>N2>Ar

◆The gas quenching pressure not only affects the cooling rate of the workpiece, but also affects its hardenability, so it must be selected carefully.
