Development of Heat Treatment Parametersto Enhance HAZ Impact Toughness ofSS 430 Material

摘要

Pressure Housing, used in the Grid Mechanism's Motor, is manufactured from ferritic stainless steel, SS430 bar of 120mm diameter. The application demands an alternative non-magnetic and magnetic material (austenitic and ferritic) on the outside. This is manufactured by making longitudinal machined slots on the outside surface of SS430 bar which is ferritic and magnetic and the machined slots are filled up by depositing SS347 which is an austenitic and non-magnetic stainless steel material. In order to weld SS430 # SS430 with SS347, welding procedure was to be qualified as per ASME Sec IX with additional requirements of impact specimens from weld and HAZ at temperature +20°C, microstructure examination and intergranular corrosion test as per ASTM A763 Pr.Z.
