Optimized Manufacturing Process for F304 Steel Valve Body Forgings

Abstract: F304 steel is an austenitic stainless steel commonly used in the manufacturing of valves. In this study, a Ø500 mm electroslag remelted ingot of F304 steel with an optimized chemical composition was forged with a forging ratio of 2.4. This was followed by a solution treatment at 1,050 °C for 3 hours with water cooling, and then a sensitization treatment at 670 °C for 1 hour followed by air cooling. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the forgings...

Optimization of the Forging Process for F92 Large Valve Body

ASTM A182 F92 is susceptible to surface cracking under improper forging due to its high alloy content. Additionally, its high chromium (Cr) and tungsten (W) content significantly reduces the effectiveness of conventional flame-based defect detection methods, which in turn reduces production efficiency. Severe surface cracks may render the product non-compliant with quality standards. Therefore, optimizing the forging process for F92 large valve is essential. ASTM A182 F92 complies...

Two Multi-Directional Die Forging Methods for Ball Valve Bodies

Ball valve bodies are critical components in valves, traditionally manufactured through casting. However, casting is prone to defects such as porosity, shrinkage, and dendritic formation, which can prevent valves from meeting performance requirements in harsh operating conditions. To enhance the mechanical properties of ball valve bodies, researchers and manufacturers have turned to forging techniques, particularly free forging and die forging. These methods, however, generate substantial material...

This modular design builds on the existing structure of the large-flow regulating valve. By adding a small-flow component,...

The Multi-Directional Die Forging Process of High-Pressure Plug Valves

High-pressure pipes play an important role in oil industry equipment and are widely used in oilfield drilling, cementing, logging, and fracturing operations. They are also used in oil testing operations, continuous tubing operations, sand control operations, and offshore platforms. As the difficulty of fracturing operations increases, the pressure level of the manifold continues to rise, with a pressure load capacity of 105MPa becoming more common. The plug valve controls the circulation and...

Measures to Address Hot Forging Die Failures in Valve Forgings

Proposed Measures Abstract: The quality of forgings is the foundation for the quality of forged steel valves, and the hot forging die is the most fundamental element of the forging process. There are numerous factors that contribute to the failure of hot forging dies. To address the issue of die failure, multiple measures are implemented during the mold production process, including the combination of an old mold, storm treatment, GORE3755-FCG type flux-cored welding repair, and CNC forming...

Analysis of the Causes of Hot Forging Die Failure of Valve Forgings

1. Overview The die is a critical component in the hot forging process. The quality of the die directly impacts both the production efficiency and the product quality of the valve forgings. Die failure frequently occurs during the production process. Through storm treatment, surfacing repair, and CNC forming of the used die with a cracked cavity, the "scrapped" die can be reused, extending its service life and significantly improving the surface quality of the product. 2. Analysis...
