Embodiment

[0047] What the present embodiment produces is high-speed motor car axle steel, and the mass percent of its composition and the requirement of oxygen content are as follows:

[0048] C 0.20~0.30%; Si 0.15~0.40%; Mn 0.50~0.80%; P≤0.020%;

[0049] S≤0.015%; Cr 0.90~1.20%; Mo 0.20~0.30%; V ≤0.06%;

[0050] Al ≤0.050%; [O] ≤20×10 -6 . The rest is Fe and unavoidable impurities.

[0051] This embodiment is the following sequential steps:

[0052] 1 Electric furnace smelting

[0053](1) Electric furnace charging: firstly put 6 tons of high-quality steel scrap into the electric furnace, the scrap steel (weight) P≤0.025%, S≤0.030%, the surface of the scrap steel is dry, free of oil and impurities, and the overall size is ≤800mm×500mm. Then pour 54 tons of the pretreated molten iron into the electric furnace, put the pretreated molten iron into the furnace (weight) P 0.060%, S 0.040%, and the temperature of the molten iron is 1260°C.

[0054] (2) Oxygen blowing in the electric f...

Abstract

The invention relates to a smelting method of steel for a hypoxia axle, which comprises the following steps that: I. smelting by using an electric furnace: scrap steel and pre-treated hot metal are added into the electric furnace, the oxygen blowing is carried out, and then a slagging material is added; the oxygen blowing is continuously carried out, and the eccentric bottom tapping of the electric furnace is adopted; a deoxidizer, ferroalloy and a slagging agent are added into a ladle before tapping; the hot metal is poured into the ladle; II. refining in a ladle furnace: before ladle refining, an Al wire is quickly fed for deoxy treatment; the ladle enters an LF(Ladle Furnace) station, Ar gas is blown from the bottom of the furnace, and calcium carbide is added; power is supplied to raise the temperature; reducing white slag is made in the ladle; Al powder and synthetic slag are added for diffusible desoxydation; in a white slag state, the time is kept within more than 15 minutes, the ladle goes out of an LF station; and III. VD (Vacuum Distillation) vacuum refining: the ladle enters a VD station; Ar gas is blown from the bottom under the high degree of vacuum; after VD treatment, an Al wire is fed; a covering agent is added; Ar gas is blown from the bottom, and soft stirring is carried out; the ladle goes out of the station; and steel is poured. According to the smelting method of steel for the hypoxia axle, the content of oxygen in the steel can be reduced to not more than 15 * 10<-6>.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for smelting low-oxygen axle steel, mainly a method for controlling the oxygen content in the production process of the axle steel. Background technique [0002] Axle is one of the important load-bearing components of railway trains, and its quality and reliability are directly related to the high-speed driving safety of railway trains. High-speed train axles have very high requirements on steel purity and fatigue resistance. At present, all the axles of my country's high-speed motor vehicles are imported from abroad, and there is still a blank in this field in China. [0003] Oxygen, as a harmful element, should be strictly controlled in steel. Studies have shown that oxygen and non-metallic oxides in steel will reduce the fatigue strength and impact toughness of steel, and it is also the origin of fatigue failure cracks. Therefore, the oxygen content and non-metallic oxides in the steel should be reduced as much a...
