Stages of technological process of high anisotropy formation of magnetic properties under «dry» pressing of powder products

Abstract

The article proposes the description of technological production process of anisotropic products from powders of high materials which provides powders preparation and products made of them. It has been shown that the main drawback of «wet» pressing technology is low accuracy at dosing wet charge. To eliminate warping and cracking of briquettes obtained by «wet» pressing during the sintering, they are subjected to air drying at room temperature within 48-72 hours. However, the percentage of product failure due to mechanical and magnetic characteristics remains high. Practically all the drawbacks of «wet» pressing can be eliminated by reverse to dry powder pressing, which allows to obtain low mass magnets without additional final finishing machining, to avoid warping and cracking of the product, and to reduce sintering time. Nevertheless, under the dry powder pressing the magnetic characteristics of products are significantly lower than under the wet pressing. When working with disperse materials, a promising direction is to converse them into fluidized state. To obtain the fluidized state of powder materials, vibrational technologies are used, involving the transfer of a wide range of energy to the powder material, i.e. mechanical, acoustic, electric and magnetic energy.
