Journal of Iron and Steel Research,2006,13(1):40-43,74模具热处理及其导向平行设计李雄,张鸿冰,阮雪榆,罗中华,张艳摘要:在一系列方式中,传统模具设计方法存在许多缺点。众所周知,热处理对模具起着非常重要的作用。为了克服模具热处理工艺存在的缺点,一种新的模具热处理工艺并行设计方法已经被开发出来了。热处理C
42、AD/CAE技术是集成了并行环境和有关模型而建立的。这些调查研究可以显著提高效率,降低成本,并保证产品质量达到R和D级。关键词:模具设计;热处理;模具传统模具设计主要是依照自身实践经验或依照部分实践经验,而不是制造工艺。在设计完成之前,模具方案通常要被一次又一次的改进,于是有些缺点便出现,例如开发时期长,成本高和实际效果不明显。由于对精确性、使用寿命、开发期和费用的严格要求,先进的模具要求设计和制造得十分完善。因此越来越先进的技术和创新方法被应用其中,例如并行工程、敏捷制造业、虚拟制造业、协同合作设计等。模具的热处理与模具设计,制造和装配同样重要。因为它对模具的制造装配和使用寿命又及其重要的影
43、响。模具设计与制造发展十分迅速,但是热处理发展却严重滞后它们。随着模具工业的发展,热处理必须保证模具有良好的制造装配和磨损耐热性能。不切实际的热处理将导致模具材料过硬或过软,同时影响模具装配性能。传统的热处理工艺是按照设计师提出的方法和特性制作出来的。这样会使模具设计师和热处理工艺师意见产生分歧,而模具设计师却不能充分地了解热处理工艺和材料的性能,相反热处理工艺师却很少了解模具的使用环境和设计思路。这些分歧将在很大程度上影响模具的发展。因此,如果把热处理工艺设计放在设计阶段之前,则缩短开发周期,减少花费和保证质量等目标将会被考虑,而且从串行到并行的发展模式也将会实现。并行工程是以计算机集成系统
44、作为载体,在开始以后,每个阶段和因素都被看作如制造、热处理、性能等等,以避免出现错误。并行模式已经摒除了串行模式的缺陷,由此带来了一场对串行模式的革命。在当前的工作中,热处理被集成到了模具开发的并行环境中,同时也正在进行这种系统性和深入性的研究。1.热处理下的并行环境并行模式与串行模式存在根本的不同(见图1)。对于串行模式,设计者大多考虑的是模具的结构与功能,但很难考虑相关的工艺,以致前者的错误很容易蔓延到后面。与此同时,设计本门很少与装配,预算会计和销售部门沟通。这些问题当然会影响模具的开发进度和市场前景。然而在并行模式中,不但以上部门关系联系密切,所有参加模具开发的部门都与买家有密切的交流
45、。这有助于协调各部门消除矛盾,提高工作效率,同时降低成本。(a)(b)(a)串行模式 (b)并行模式图1.基于摸具开发的串行工程与并行工程系统框架示意图并行环境下的热处理工艺不是在方案和工件确定以后,而是在模具设计的时候制定出来的。这样的话,将有利于优化热处理工艺,充分利用材料。2.模具热处理CAD/CAE一体化从图2中可以看出,热处理工艺的设计与模拟是一体化模式的核心。在信息输入产品模块中后,经热处理工艺过程产生的热处理CAD和热处理CAE模块将对于零件图,热处理以后模拟温度场的微观结构分析和可能出现的缺陷(例如过热,烧伤)自动划分网络,如果优化是根据立体视觉技术的结果重新出现,则这项热处理
46、工艺已经被审核。而且工具与夹具的CAD和CAE也集成于这种系统中。图2.并行工程热处理CAD/CAE一体化系统框架示意图以并行工程为基础的集成模式可以与其它类似模式共享信息。这样使热处理工艺得到优化,并确保改工艺准确。2.1采用三维模型和立体视觉技术的热处理在形成模具的基础上,材料,结构和尺寸的问题能通过热处理三维模型尽快发现出来。在热处理过程中,模具加热条件和相变条件是切合实际的,因为通过计算相变热力、相变动力、相应力、热应力、传热速度、流体动力等已经取得重要突破。例如,能进行局部复杂表面和不对称模具的三维热传导模型计算,和能进行微观结构转变的MARC软件模型。计算机能够在任何时间提交温度,
47、微观结构和应力的信息,并通过连接温度场微观结构领域和力场来显示三维形式的全部改变过程。如果再加上这种特性,则各部分性能都能通过计算机预见。2.2热处理工艺设计由于对强度和硬度,表面粗糙度和模具热处理变形的特殊要求,淬火介质的种类、淬火温度、回火温度和时间等参数特性必须经过适当的选择,以及是否使用表面淬火或化学热处理,这种特性必须准确的制定下来。自从计算机技术在最近几十年迅速的发展,难以进行大型计算已经成为过去。通过模拟和仔细考虑热处理特性,热处理后的成本和所须时间,这些都并不难优化热处理工艺。2.3热处理数据库热处理数据库在图3中描述。数据库是制定热处理工艺的基础。一般来说,热处理数据库分为材
48、料数据库和工艺数据库。通过材料和工艺来预测特性已成为一种必然的趋势。尽管很难建立一个特性数据库,但通过一系列的测试来建立数据库是必要的。材料数据库包括材料牌号、化学成分、性能和国内外同级别目录表。工艺数据库包括热处理标准、种类、保温时间和冷却温度。基于数据库,热处理工艺可以通过推理规则创造出来。图3.热处理数据库2.4热处理工具和设备在热处理工艺确定以后,工具及设备CAD/CAE系统传送设计和制造的数值信息来控制装置。通过快速模具成型,可靠的工具和夹具都能被确定。整个程序通过网络传送,不存在任何人为干扰。3.关键技术3.1温度,微观结构,应力和特性的联系热处理程序是一个温度,微观结构和应力互相作用的程序。三方面都能影响材料特性(见图4)。在加热和冷却期间,当微观结构转变时热应力和相变迟早会出现。微观结构
