Investigation of plastic properties of AISI 316l steel by method of registration of macrolocalization fields

Abstract

Selective laser melting is one of the modern methods of manufacturing parts in the production of machine-building equipment, a special place is occupied by complex technological processes used in the manufacture of high-load units of pneumatic-hydraulic system from heat-resistant alloys. The research was carried out on samples made of powder material - stainless steel AISI 316L martensite class. Metallographic studies showed that the density of the sample is 99.83%, the structure of the samples is a martensitic structure of equilibrium constructed tracks. Tests to determine the mechanical properties were performed in accordance with ISO 6892 on an INSTRON test machine. From the tensile diagram it was found that the yield strength was 376.56 MPa, the maximum point of temporary resistance of the sample - 615, 40 MPa 319 seconds after the start of the test. The control of the surface roughness was performed using a BioBase device. The working area of the tensile sample consisted of two areas: a roughness area of 5 μm, which accounted for 80% of the working part of the sample (zones A and Б) and 20% of the working part of the sample (zone Б), the roughness was 17 μm. According to the results of microstructure studies and studies by the method of registration of macrolocalization fields of the working zone of the samples, it was found that the destruction began from the surface of the samples from microconcentrators due to different roughness. It is established that the surface and subsurface layer with increased roughness in comparison with the main body has a smaller elongation by 10.84%. From microstructural studies of the working zone in the area of the gap, it was found that the destruction began from the surface of the samples between zones A and Б. During the research in zone A and Б, one of the concentrators of the gap was detected. As a result of the study, it was found that the destruction began with the surface of the samples and the place of change of its roughness. The mechanism of deformation of the sample from AISI 316L steel is shown, the scheme of extraction of tail sections of tracks and crack propagation in the conditions of tensile testing of the sample is constructed.
