What is Kovar Alloy?
Kovar, or ASTM F15, is a nickel-cobalt-iron alloy prized for its thermal expansion properties that closely match those of borosilicate glass and ceramics. Composed of approximately 29% nickel, 17% cobalt, and 54% iron, with trace elements like manganese and silicon, Kovar ensures reliable hermetic seals across a wide temperature range (-80°F to 450°F). Its stability and machinability make it a top choice for precision components in electronics, aerospace, and medical applications.
| 元素 | Percent by Weight | Function in Alloy |
|---|---|---|
| ニッケル（Ni） | 29% | Controls thermal expansion, improves corrosion resistance |
| Cobalt (Co) | 17% | Enhances thermal stability, adds strength |
| 鉄（Fe） | ~54% | Forms the alloy base, affects magnetic properties |
| シリコン（Si） | ~0.2% | Improves melt quality, reduces oxidation |
| マンガン（Mn） | ~0.5% | Improves melt quality, reduces oxidation |
| 炭素（C） | ~0.02% | Refines grain structure, enhances strength |
Expert Kovar Alloy Machining at XTJ Precision Mfg
Kovar’s properties require specialized machining to achieve precision. XTJ employs the following techniques:
放電加工（EDM）
Non-contact method for complex shapes, minimizing stress and maintaining material integrity with fine finishes.
CNC加工
Using 3-, 4-, and 5-axis CNC machines with carbide tools for intricate designs and tight tolerances, optimized for Kovar’s work-hardening nature.
レーザー切断
Precise cuts with minimal heat-affected zones, ideal for intricate patterns and high repeatability.
Tooling Requirements
Sharp carbide or diamond-coated tools with optimized edge angles (>25°) to reduce work-hardening and ensure clean cuts.
Design Tips for Kovar CNC Machining
To maximize Kovar’s performance, consider these design and machining strategies:
Match Thermal Expansion
Align Kovar’s CTE with adjacent materials to prevent stress during temperature changes.
Optimize Speeds and Feeds
Use lower speeds and higher feeds to minimize work-hardening and maintain precision.
Use Carbide Tools
Employ hard-tipped tools to withstand Kovar’s abrasiveness and extend tool life.
Pre- and Post-Annealing
Anneal before machining to relieve stresses and after to ensure dimensional stability.
Surface Finishing
Apply passivation or electroplating to enhance corrosion resistance and solderability.
