GR5 titanium currently one of the most widely used titanium alloys. It has high strength and good corrosion resistance, but it is difficult to see seamless titanium tubes made of TC4 in the seamless titanium tube market at home and abroad.

   GR5 titanium material is mainly plate material. GR5 titanium pipe material on the market is mainly high-strength thick-walled pipe produced by hot extrusion or oblique piercing. This warm rolling process needs to improve the traditional roll, that is, on the pipe rolling mill. Install induction heating device, this kind of processing equipment has complicated structure, complicated process and high production cost. For example, the direct cold-rolling forming process is used to produce high-strength titanium alloy pipes, which not only greatly reduces production costs, but also meets the requirements for high-performance titanium alloy applications.

      The billeting method with different deformations is adopted, and the tube blank is rolled into a tube with a total deformation of 70% after two passes and three passes. Carry out 800℃×1h vacuum annealing between passes. The cooling method is furnace cooling to 500℃ and then air cooling to room temperature to observe the changes in structure and properties. Concluded:

    In the case of small deformation billeting, the wall thickness deviation is small, and the surface roughness is gradually reduced; the large deformation billeting, the wall thickness deviation is large, which will affect the wall thickness deviation of the pipes obtained by subsequent passes.

In the case of the same total deformation, the more rolling passes, the greater the elongation and hardness of the pipe, and the higher the strength. Good overall performance.

    When rolling with large deformation, the flow of material is strip-shaped, and when rolling with small deformation, the flow of material is bundled. Under the condition that the heat treatment conditions between passes are the same as the subsequent rolling process, the tube with large deformation is billeted The tissue distortion is more serious.

    The small deformation billet has little effect on the anisotropy of the pipe; there are certain fluctuations in the anisotropy of the mechanical properties in multi-pass rolling.
