Cross wedge rolling process provides a new way with short production chain and precise control for high-performance blade preforming used in aeroengine, but the issue of central damage needs to be paid attention and investigated. Therefore, this paper aims to understand the formation mechanism of central damage on CWR of GH4169 alloy. The uniaxial hot tensile test and CWR experiments were carried out to explore the high-temperature deformation behavior of GH4169 alloy, as well as the central damage of GH4169 alloy CWR process. Moreover, the finite element model was established and used to analyze the evolution of stress and strain at different position. The results showed that central part of the workpiece is in the state of higher stress triaxiality η, which is easy to cause damage. And the micro-holes in the center of workpiece mainly nucleated around the detached NbC carbide. Meanwhile, the first principal stress and the maximum shear stress are the dominant factors which affect the central damage. Therefore, a novel damage criterion suitable for CWR of GH4169 alloy was developed with considering the effect of stress triaxiality η and the sensitivities of deformation temperature and strain rate on the central damage evolution. In addition, initial forming temperature T0 is the most important factor affecting the central damage, and the maximum area reduction and rolling speed n are related to the initial deformation temperature T0. And in order to inhibit the damage, the initial forming temperature should be controlled below 1020℃, and the area reduction and rolling speed should not be higher than 55% and 10r/min, respectively.

Cross wedge rolling (CWR) is one of the most effective plastic deformation methods utilized for the production of shaft parts or non-shaft preforms with refined grains and improved mechanical properties. The main goal of this work was to study the influence of CWR process parameters on the microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of a TC6 alloy and determine the suitable process parameters for a TC6 alloy blade preform fabricated with CWR. The results showed that the volume fraction of the equiaxed α phase (fα_e) decreased from ~ 0.38 to ~ 0.04 by increasing the initial deformation temperature, and the elongation (El) also decreased from ~ 19.6 to ~ 11.8% because dislocation slip first started in the equiaxed grains and then dispersed into the adjacent grains. Thus, additional equiaxed grains contributed to an increased plasticity. Moreover, with an increasing area reduction, the value of fα_e increased from ~ 0.14 to ~ 0.31, and the grain refinement and microstructure uniformity also increased. In addition, the El was significantly reduced by over 50%, but the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and yield strength (YS) increased under WC (water cooling) conditions due to the precipitation of the acicular secondary α phase and pinning effect of the small equiaxed α phase. Based on the determined suitable parameters, the TC6 alloy blade preform was successfully manufactured by CWR, the microstructure was evenly distributed, and the UTS, YS and El were 1120.1 MPa, 1020.9 MPa and 15.2%, respectively, which meet the current technical requirements.
