WORKING INSTRUCTION
Alloys 46 can be hot or cold worked, machined and formed by processes similar to those used for austenitic stainless steels.
Heat treatment
Although the nickel-iron low expansion alloys are not hardenable, annealing and stress relief thermal treatments are at times necessary to promote structure uniformity and dimensional stability. The relief of stresses introduced by severe forming, bending, or machining, can be accomplished by annealing at temperatures of approximately 1400 to 1800°F (760 to 982°C) for a time sufficient, to thoroughly heat through the section. However, the nickel-irons will oxidize readily at these high temperatures. When annealing cannot be done in a non-oxidizing enviroment (vacuum, dry hydrogen, dissociated ammonia, etc.) sufficient material must be allowed on work pieces to clean-up by light grinding, pickling, etc., after annealing. Stress relief for sections having light finishing cuts or grinding performed after annealing is accomplished by heating to 600 to 800°F (316 to 427°C), for a time to uniformly heat through the work piece.
Forming
All of the nickel-iron controlled expansion alloys can be hot forged, upset, formed, etc., at temperatures between 1800 to 2100°F (982 to 1149°C). However, heating for hot working must be done uniformly at slow rates from relatively cold furnaces (black) to minimize the potential for cracking through large sections as a result of differential thermal expansion stresses. Large forgings should be annealed to promote uniformity after hot working.
Machining
The alloy should be machined in the annealed condition, using high speed steel or tungsten carbide tipped tools. Cutting compounds should be straight cutting oil E.P. medium duty, or soluble oil 20:1 dilution for turning, drilling and milling. Lower dilution ratios should be used for other machining methods.
The following feeds and speeds can be used as a general guide:
Cutting Speed | Feed | |
Rough turning depth of cut 1.25-2.5 mm (0.05-0.10 inch) |
30-45 m/min (98-148 ft/min) |
0.25-0.4 mm/rev (0.01-0.015 in/rev) |
Finish turning, depth of cut 0.125-0.25 mm (0.005-0.010 inch) |
45-60 m/min (148-197ft/min) |
0.1-0.25 mm/rev (0.0004-0.01 mm/rev) |
