Raw Material Preparation: The production starts with the collection and preparation of the raw materials required for Inconel 713C, including nickel, chromium, iron, aluminum, and other alloying elements. These materials are carefully weighed and proportioned to achieve the desired alloy composition.
Melting: The prepared raw materials are then charged into a high-temperature furnace, such as an electric arc furnace or an induction furnace. The furnace is designed to create a controlled atmosphere to prevent oxidation and contamination. The raw materials are melted at high temperatures above the alloy's melting point, typically over 1,300°C (2,372°F), to form a molten metal.
Casting: Once the molten metal reaches the desired temperature and composition, it is poured into molds to form the initial casting. The molds can be made of sand, ceramic, or other materials depending on the casting process used. Inconel 713C rods can be produced using a variety of casting methods, including investment casting (lost-wax process) or continuous casting.
Forming: After the casting solidifies, the rods are removed from the molds and undergo various forming operations to shape them into their final dimensions. This can involve processes like hot rolling, forging, or extrusion to achieve the desired shape and size. These processes help refine the microstructure and improve the mechanical properties of the rods.
Heat Treatment: Inconel 713C rods then undergo a carefully controlled heat treatment process to optimize their properties. This typically involves a combination of solutionizing (heating the rod to a specific temperature) and aging (holding the rod at a specific temperature for a certain period). The heat treatment process helps to enhance the strength, hardness, and overall performance of the alloy.
Finishing: Once the rods have been heat-treated, they undergo finishing operations to achieve the final surface finish and dimensional accuracy. This may include processes like polishing, machining, grinding, and inspection to ensure that the rods meet the required specifications and quality standards.
Testing and Quality Control: Throughout the production process, various tests and inspections are conducted to check the quality and integrity of the Inconel 713C rods. These tests can include dimensional inspections, chemical analysis, mechanical testing (such as tensile strength and hardness), non-destructive testing (e.g., ultrasound or X-ray examinations), and other specific tests required based on industry standards and customer specifications.
Packaging and Delivery: Once the rods pass the quality control checks, they are properly packaged to protect them from damage during transportation. The rods are then shipped to customers or distributors for further use in various applications.
