product key technologies
Precision Ground Cobalt Rod process
Smelting casting method
Cobalt and alloying elements (chromium, tungsten, etc.) are melted by vacuum induction melting (VIM), cast and cooled, suitable for industrial grade bar materials, requiring controlled grain refinement to enhance strength.
Powder metallurgy method
After mixing cobalt powder with alloy powder, it is cold isostatic pressed and compacted by vacuum sintering (1100-1400 ℃). The composition is uniform and suitable for high-precision components (such as medical implants).
Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing)
Laser Powder Bed Melting (LPBF) layer by layer stacking of cobalt chromium alloy powder, customizable for complex structures (such as internal channels of aviation impellers), with material utilization rate>95%.
Hot processing finishing
Casting blanks are hot forged or rolled (1000-1200 ℃) to improve internal streamline structure, enhance wear resistance and toughness, and are commonly used in bearing and valve blank processing.
