Abstract

The changes in microstructure during the forging of a large Ti-5-5-5-3 component are studied. The effect of the different plastic strain and cooling rates experienced by the various zones of the component is analyzed and compared in terms of the microstructures that they induce. The results show that the microstructures vary in the different zones of the forging with the α phase spheroidization increasing with the amount of plastic strain sustained by the material. A correlation between the level of α phase spheroidization and the plastic softening of the forging has been found.
