DEVELOPMENT OF DEEP DRAWN-ONE PIECE HIGH PERFORMANCE ROCKET MOTOR CASE

Abstract

Fabrication of the assemblies for the hot cup die, and the first and second draw dies is reported. A chilled casting method was selected for the third draw die. The die will be made to the same rigid requirements of those associated with the roll manufacture. Competitive bids for the fourth, fifth and sixth die assemblies were obtained. Metallographic examination photographs of 20 to 25% Ni alloys and all beta Ti alloys are presented to illustrate the strain hardening characteristics of the alloys. No evidence of micro-cracks were found in any samples.
