24. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS OF HIP EQUIPMENT IN JAPAN

Mr Katsumi WATANABE (KOBE Steel, Ltd.)

HIP Process

Oral Presentation

The toll services have been increased in the recent Japanese HIP market. This trend leads to larger HIP equipment and shorter cycle times for productivity improvement. In addition, longer life cycle of pressure vessels are demanded to reduce the costs in conformance with the requirements of the relevant laws and regulations of Japan. To meet such demands, the HIP equipment with a new rapid...

61. Controlled uniform load cooling in production scale HIP equipment

Mr Maxime Pauwels (Engineered Pressure Systems International NV), Mr Pierre Colman (Engineered Pressure Systems International NV)

HIP Process

Oral Presentation

Several aspects of load cooling in a production HIP unit have been widely tackled in the last 40 years. The aim of this paper is to make an overview of the required cooling types applied to typical metallurgical applications available for industrial HIP users. Both electronic controls and furnace & heat shield design have progressed in order to fulfill this demand, while considering the...

78. 60 years after Battelle: why to HIP, what to HIP and how to HIP? (Science and Technology behind the Wall of an Autoclave)

Dr Victor Samarov (LNT PM Inc.)

07/12/2017, 09:00

HIP Process

Oral Presentation

The paper analyzes 40 years of personal experience in developments of PM HIP processes along with the general tendencies of HIP evolution from a process developed in Battelle in 1956 to solve some specific problems in nuclear technology to a world-wide technology of building new materials and structures for critical applications Fundamental physical and technological differences of HIP...

20. The Pros and Cons of HIPping of Ti-based Alloys to Near Net Shape

Prof. michael loretto (University of Birmingham UK)

07/12/2017, 09:25

HIP Process

Oral Presentation

It is widely accepted that Near Net Shape HIP (NNSHIP) has many advantages over alternative process-routes for the production of some types of components, but as with all process-routes there are disadvantages. This process-route now has competition from additive manufacturing, which is being used to produce components such as engine casings, but the various technologies of additive...

59. High Pressure Heat Treatment - Phase Transformation Under Isostatic Pressure in HIP

Mr Magnus Ahlfors (Quintus Technologies AB)

07/12/2017, 09:50

HIP Process

Oral Presentation

Hot Isostatic Pressing is widely used today to eliminate internal defects in components to achieve improved material properties like ductility and fatigue. With the modern HIP systems that Quintus Technologies can offer today there are possibilities to incorporate more processes steps into the HIP process. These process steps can be stress relief, solutionizing, quenching, ageing, tempering...

67. TeraPi - A 3.5 meter diameter hot zone HIP unit enables HIP:ing of large components

Dr ANDERS EKLUND (QUINTUS TECHNOLOGIES AB)

07/12/2017, 10:15

HIP Process

Oral Presentation

The largest HIP unit operated in the world today has a hot zone diameter of 2.05 meters which is very big. However, there are even bigger components produced that would benefit from a HIP process but which can’t be HIP:ed today because of the size. These components could be large pump house castings for nuclear power plants or large circular components for aerospace engines for...

55. Advances in HIP Equipment with the Tie-Rod and Quick Can Approaches

Mr Robert Conaway (1944)

07/12/2017, 10:40

HIP Process

Oral Presentation

Through the last 30 years, Isostatic Forging International Ltd (IFI) has developed innovative concepts of HIP equipment that shows great promise for the full range of HIP processing from the very smallest (and fastest) units to the units of unprecedented size and capability. With all advances of the precision casting and PM technologies the sizes of the large components are limited only by...
