Abstract: A method of processing a non- magnetic alloy workpiece comprises heating the workpiece to a warm working temperature , open die press forging the workpiece to impart a desired strain in a central region of the workpiece , and radial forging ,the workpiece to impart a desired strain in a surface region of the workpiece. In a non- limiting embodiment , after the steps of open die press forging and radial forging the strain imparted in the surface region is substantially equivalent to the strain imparted in the central region. In another non limiting embodiment the strain imparted in the central and surface regions are in a range from 0.3 inch/inch to 1 inch/inch, and there exists no more than a 0.5 inch/inch difference in strain of the central region compared with the strain of the surface region of the workpiece. An alloy forging processed according to methods described herein also is disclosed.

Abstract: A method of processing a workpiece to inhibit precipitation of intermetallic compounds includes at least one of thermomechanically processing and cooling a workpiece including an austenitic alloy. During the at least one of thermomechanically working and cooling the workpiece, the austenitic alloy is at temperatures in a temperature range spanning a temperature just less than a calculated sigma solvus temperature of the austenitic alloy down to a cooling temperature for a time no greater than a critical cooling time.

Abstract: Abstract A method of processing an electrically conductive metallic material, the method comprising: introducing an electrically conductive metallic material comprising at least one of a metal and a metallic alloy into a furnace chamber maintained at a low pressure relative to atmospheric pressure; generating a first electron field having a first area of coverage using at least a first ion plasma electron emitter; subjecting the material within the furnace chamber to the first electron field to heat the material to a temperature above a melting temperature of the material; generating a second electron field having a second area of coverage using a second ion plasma electron emitter; and subjecting at least one of any solid condensate within the furnace chamber, any solidified portions of the electrically conductive metallic material, and regions of a solidifying ingot to the second electron field, using a steering system, to melt or heat at least one of the solid condensate, the solidified portions, and the regions of the solidifying ingot, wherein the second area of coverage is smaller than the first area of coverage.

Abstract: Methods of refining the grain size of titanium and titanium alloys include thermally managed high strain rate multi-axis forging. A high strain rate adiabatically heats an internal region of the workpiece during forging, and a thermal management system is used to heat an external surface region to the workpiece forging temperature, while the internal region is allowed to cool to the workpiece forging temperature. A further method includes multiple upset and draw forging titanium or a titanium alloy using a strain rate less than is used in conventional open die forging of titanium and titanium alloys. Incremental workpiece rotation and draw forging causes severe plastic deformation and grain refinement in the titanium or titanium alloy forging.

Abstract: An apparatus for melting an electrically conductive metallic material inc ludes a vacuum chamber and a hearth disposed in the vacuum chamber. At least one wire-discharge ion plasma electron emitter is disposed in or adjacent t he vacuum chamber and is positioned to direct a wide-area field of electrons into the vacuum chamber, wherein the wide-area electron field has sufficien t energy to heat the electrically conductive metallic material to its meltin g temperature. The apparatus may further include, at least one of a mold and an atomizing apparatus which is in communication with the vacuum chamber an d is positioned to receive molten material from the hearth. Preferably, the pressure within the furnace chamber is maintained at more than 5,3 Pa to dec rease evaporation of volatile elements.

Abstract: A method of processing a metal alloy includes heating to a temperature in a working temperature range from a recrystallization temperature of the metal alloy to a temperature less than an incipient melting temperature of the metal alloy, and working the alloy. At least a surface region is heated to a temperature in the working temperature range. The surface region is maintained within the working temperature range for a period of time to recrystallize the surface region of the metal alloy, and the alloy is cooled so as to minimize grain growth. In embodiments including superaustenitic and austenitic stainless steel alloys, process temperatures and times are selected to avoid precipitation of deleterious intermetallic sigma-phase. A hot worked superaustenitic stainless steel alloy having equiaxed grains throughout the alloy is also disclosed.
