Problems solved by technology

Low-alloy high-speed steel itself has fewer primary carbides than general-purpose high-speed steel. Although the use of lower quenching temperature can avoid the generation of mixed crystals to a certain extent, it will lead to too few dissolved carbides, and the secondary structure obtained after tempering Minor hardness and red hardness are significantly lower
Increasing the quenching temperature can avoid the decrease in hardness, but it is easy to cause mixed and coarse grains

Abstract

The invention discloses a low alloy high speed steel mischcrystal elimination heat treatment process. The process comprises an annealing procedure and a quenching procedure. The annealing procedure comprises the following steps: heating up a low alloy high speed steel ingot to 890 to 910 DEG C at the speed of 300 DEG C per hour; controlling an annealing cooling rate at 25 to 30 DEG C per hour when the temperature of the ingot is above 600 DEG C; and cooling the ingot in the furnace when the temperature of the ingot is less than or equal to 600 DEG C. The quenching procedure comprises the following steps: preheating the annealed steel ingot to 800 to 850 DEG C, and controlling the heating time to be 5 to 15 minutes; continuing to heat up the ingot and increase the temperature to 1,170 to 1,190 DEG C, and controlling the holding time to be 2 to 6 minutes; and cooling the ingot through interrupted quenching. The process improves the annealing temperature rising rate and the annealing heating temperature, thereby enabling an annealed structure to be closer to an equilibrium structure, effectively avoiding the uneven growth of quenching austenite grains in a subsequent temperature span easily producing mischcrystal, improving the quenching temperature of the low alloy high speed steel, and reaching the aim of improving the red hardness of the high speed steel while simultaneously obtaining high tenacity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a heat treatment process of low-alloy high-speed steel. The heat-treatment process is implemented for eliminating the defects of mixed crystal structure generated in the heat-treatment process of low-alloy high-speed steel. Background technique [0002] Mixed grain is a kind of defect structure that often appears in the production of high-speed steel. In essence, it is due to the high-speed steel that has been rolled and deformed. There are a large number of fine carbides in the structure. When the quenching temperature is not high, the fine carbides have a good pinning effect on the grain boundary. When the quenching temperature rises, A large amount of fine carbides dissolve, which weakens or loses the pinning effect on the grain boundaries, resulting in mixed crystals until the grains become coarser. There are two theories about the mechanism of mixed crystals, one is that it is the product of austenite recrystallization, a...
