Tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullet is a spherical armor-piercing bullet made of tungsten alloy material, mainly used for military attack and defense. Because tungsten alloy has the characteristics of high density, high strength, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs have excellent effects in armor-piercing and armor-breaking.
- Manufacturing of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs
The manufacturing process of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs mainly includes raw material preparation, mixing, pressing, sintering and post-processing.
- Raw material preparation: The raw materials of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinball include tungsten powder, rhenium powder, copper powder and other metal powders. These powders require careful preparation and processing to ensure the uniformity and stability of their composition and organizational structure.
- Mixing: Mixing the prepared tungsten powder, rhenium powder, copper powder and other metal powders evenly according to a certain proportion is an important step in manufacturing tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs. During the mixing process, the particle size and distribution of the powder need to be strictly controlled to ensure the uniformity and stability of the mixing.
- Press molding: Put the mixed tungsten alloy powder into a mold for press molding to form a green body with a certain shape and size. The pressure and temperature need to be controlled during the pressing process to ensure the density of the green body and the stability of the tissue structure.
- Sintering: The pressed green body is sintered at high temperature to melt and solidify the tungsten alloy powder at high temperature. The temperature and time need to be controlled during the sintering process to ensure the stability of the grain structure and mechanical properties of the tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinball.
- Post-processing: The sintered tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinball needs to be post-processed, including heat treatment, surface treatment and processing. Heat treatment can eliminate internal stress and improve the hardness and wear resistance of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs; surface treatment can enhance the corrosion resistance and aesthetics of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs; the processing link can carry out finishing and surface treatment on tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs to improve Meet the needs of different fields.
- Characteristics and applications of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs
- High density: Tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs have the characteristics of high density. Their density is usually between 16.5-19.0g/cm³, which is much higher than ordinary steel materials. The high density allows the tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinball to have greater kinetic energy and penetrating power when penetrating the target, effectively penetrating and destroying the target’s armor.
- High strength: Tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinball has high tensile strength and compressive strength, and can withstand large pressure and tensile force. When penetrating the target, the tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinball can maintain its shape and structural stability and is not easily deformed or broken, thus improving the penetration effect.
- High temperature resistance: Tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs have good high-temperature performance and can maintain stable performance in high-temperature environments. During the high-speed penetration process, tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs can withstand extremely high temperatures and friction and are not easy to soften and fail.
- Corrosion resistance: Tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs have good corrosion resistance and can resist the erosion of chemicals such as acids, alkalis, and salts. Under complex environmental conditions, tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs can maintain their performance and stability and extend their service life.
- Excellent processing performance: Tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs have excellent processing performance and can be processed and manufactured through conventional machining and casting processes. This makes the manufacture of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs relatively easy and can be customized according to demand.
- Environmentally friendly and non-toxic: Tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinball is an environmentally friendly material that does not produce toxic substances and is harmless to the environment and human health. This is in line with the environmental performance requirements of modern military equipment.
- Good anti-interference performance: Tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs have strong resistance to electromagnetic interference and can maintain their performance and stability in electromagnetic interference environments. This is of great significance for electronic countermeasures in modern warfare.
- Precision guidance: Tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs can be equipped with a precision guidance system to improve hit accuracy and penetration effects. Through the control of the guidance system, it can effectively attack enemy armored targets and reduce accidental damage to friendly forces and civilians.
- Disadvantages of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs.
- High cost: The cost of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs is relatively high, mainly due to the high price of the tungsten alloy material itself, and the fact that the manufacturing process requires multiple processes and complex processes, making it difficult to reduce the cost.
- It is prone to over-penetration: When a tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinball hits a target, due to its high density and high hardness, it is easy to penetrate the target and enter the interior of the target, causing over-penetration and causing the warhead to lose its penetrating ability.
- Accuracy problem: Because the tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinball has a large mass and a large inertia, it is difficult to control the accuracy when shooting, and it is easy to produce a large dispersion range, affecting the shooting effect.
- Susceptible to electromagnetic interference: In an electromagnetic interference environment, the guidance system of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs is easily affected, resulting in a decrease in hit accuracy.
- Long production cycle: The manufacturing of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs requires multiple processes and complex processes. The production cycle is long, which is not conducive to rapid production and equipment.
In summary, although tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs have excellent performance and are widely used, their shortcomings such as high cost, prone to over-penetration, accuracy issues, susceptibility to electromagnetic interference, and long production cycles cannot be ignored. Therefore, when applying tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs, comprehensive considerations and selections need to be made based on the actual situation.
- Summary and Outlook
As a product with high density, high strength, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinball has broad application prospects in the military field. With the continuous advancement of science and technology and the growing demand for applications, the research and development and application of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs will continue to develop and improve. In the future, it is necessary to further research new tungsten alloy materials and preparation technologies to improve the performance and application range of tungsten alloy armor-piercing pinballs to meet the needs of different fields. At the same time, with the continuous improvement of environmental awareness, it is necessary to actively explore green and environmentally friendly preparation technologies and application fields to achieve sustainable development.
