Pulsed thermo-induction-dynamic welding and pressing of dissimilar materials

Abstract

To obtain permanent joints from diversified parts and powder compositions, it is proposed to use discharge-pulse processes with the accumulation of stored energy in a capacitor bank. Technological difficulties in the manufacture of structures from non-ferrous metal and alloy parts of different thicknesses are listed. The thermal effect is carried out by passing the discharge current from the batteries of pulse capacitors, and the power effect is realized through the use of an inductive-dynamic drive. A scheme for the series connection of a compacted powder with an induction-dynamic drive, consisting of a flat inductor with a pusher, is proposed. The physical essence of the formation of compounds is described. The processes responsible for the formation of permanent connections by a pulsed current discharge have been identified. A picture of the relationship between the main parameters of the pressing process – sintering in time, as well as the results of measuring the temperature of the sintering process of powders by the photoemission method is presented. The results of energy consumption for the consolidation of powder compositions with simultaneous welding to a steel base are given.
