摘要: 针对轴齿类零件高温渗碳淬火热处理畸变问题,研究了工业机器人减速器精密轴齿类零件真空低压渗碳和高压气淬工艺。结果表明,在升温阶段采用阶梯式升温保温方式,强渗阶段以乙炔-氮气交替脉冲进行强渗和扩散,淬火冷却阶段精确控制氮气压力1.8 MPa(18 bar)并使之稳定,可使轴齿类零件的总畸变量控制在0.005~0.015 mm。实际生产结果表明,轴齿类零件采用真空低压渗碳和高压气淬技术,渗碳层中的马氏体为1级,残留奥氏体和碳化物为1~2级,心部组织为1~2级。批量生产的减速器精密轴齿表面硬度、心部硬度和有效硬化层深度均值分别为59.7 HRC、38.6 HRC和0.681 mm,全部满足技术要求。

Abstract: Aiming at the distortion problem of pinion shaft of industrial robot planetary reducers during high-temperature carburizing and quenching, the vacuum low pressure carburizing and high pressure gas quenching processes of the precision shaft were studied. The results show that in the heating-up stage, the multi-step heating up method is adopted, the boost stage is used to carry out strong carbon infiltration and diffusion with the alternately pulsed input of acetylene-nitrogen, and the quenching cooling stage with accurately controlled and stabilized the nitrogen pressure at 1.8 MPa (18 bar), the total distortion of the pinion shaft can be controlled within 0.005-0.015 mm. The actual production results show that, by using vacuum low pressure carburizing and high pressure gas quenching technology, the martensitic grade of the pinion shaft in the carburized layer is grade 1, and the retained austenite and carbide are grade 1 to 2, the core microstructure is 1 to 2 grades, and the average surface hardness, core hardness and effective hardened depth of the precision pinion shaft produced by the mass production are 59.7 HRC, 38.6 HRC and 0.681 mm, respectively, all of which meet the technical requirements.
