Abstract
An energy-efficient process route for manufacturing machine tools and dies of high quality was proposed based on recrystallization and partial melting (RAP) method and semi-solid forming technology. To verify its feasibility, the effects of parameters such as predeformation, heating rate, and holding time on the microstructure and mechanical properties of cast Cr–V–Mo steel were studied experimentally. Recrystallization, austenization, grain growth and partial melting occur during heating of predeformed cast billet. These behaviors refine the microstructure and improve the mechanical properties. The refinement of microstructure and improvement of mechanical properties become more significant, when RAP is conducted with larger predeformation (50%), higher heating rate (50°C/s) and shorter isothermal holding time (20s).
