Abstract
Due to the difficulty of manufacturing complex small pieces ofthe new bearing steel0.30C-Cr-W with high-performance in the aviation industry, the electron beam welding process are usually used for preparing the complex parts.Thewelding performance of 0.30C-Cr-W steelwas calculated by theory and confirmedby actual experiments.The base metal was preheated,then welded and heattreated for weldments.The purpose of this work is to study the properties and the microstructure changes of base metal after heat treatment, weldments before heat treatment and weldments after heat treatment.The results show that the base metalafter heat treatment is sorbitic,weldzone of weldments after heat treatmentismartensite and austenite, theprecipitated M23C6 and M6C in latter (the weld zoneof weldmentsafter heat treatment) were more thanthe former (the base metalafter heat treatment), and the strengthof the latter is 23.4%lower than the former, theroom temperature impact absorbing energy and hardness of the latter increased 13.5% and 6.6%. It may be considered that0.30-C-Cr-W steel is not suitablefor welding by the theoretical calculations, but after reasonable preheat and post-weld heat treatment, the mechanical properties of the weld afterheat treatment can satisfy the requirements.
