Abstract
Owing to the non-uniform distribution of chemical composition and temperature during the heat treatment process, the residual stress and deformation of the workpiece emerge as crucial factors requiring consideration in managing the service performance and lifespan of shield machine cutter rings crafted from H13 steel. Considering H13 steel with titanium microalloying as the research object for the shield machine cutter ring, we simulate the quenching process using Deform-3D. The temperature field, phase transformation, stress evolution, and deformation amount after quenching are analyzed. The results demonstrate a strong agreement between the simulation and experimental results, offering valuable insights for optimizing the heat treatment process and enhancing the overall performance of shield machine cutter rings.
