Material selection and treatment of agricultural machinery forgings

Agricultural machinery forging is an important part of agricultural machinery equipment, its quality and service life directly affect the performance and reliability of the whole machine.

Material selection

There are many kinds of forging materials, including carbon steel, alloy steel, aluminum alloy and so on. When choosing materials, you need to consider the following factors:

Cost performance: The cost performance of the material is one of the important factors in the selection, the need to ensure the quality of the premise, the selection of reasonable prices of materials.

Scope of application: Different materials are suitable for different working environments and conditions, and appropriate materials need to be selected according to actual needs.

Environmental protection: With the increase of environmental awareness, it is increasingly important to choose recyclable, low-pollution materials.

Processing methods The processing methods of agricultural machinery forgings mainly include the following:

Heat treatment: Heat treatment can improve the mechanical properties of the material, improve its wear resistance, fatigue resistance and corrosion resistance. Heat treatment of agricultural machinery forgings mainly includes quenching, tempering, normalizing and so on.

Cold treatment: Cold treatment is a treatment method to improve the hardness and stability of agricultural machinery forgings, including shot peening, cold extrusion and so on.

Chemical treatment: chemical treatment can remove impurities such as oxide and rust on the surface of the material, improve the smoothness and cleanliness of the surface, and common chemical treatment methods are pickling and phosphating.
