Abstract

The invention relates to a quench cooling process for H13 steel. The process sequentially comprises a grading heating step, a gas cooling step, a water cooling step and an air cooling step. During quench cooling in the invention, gas cooling, water cooling and air cooling occur in order. Water cooling speeds up the cooling rate of quenching, so that austenite is rapidly supercooled to a martensite region, thus ensuring a martensitic structure obtained during quenching. The air cooling after water cooling greatly slows down the cooling rate, therefore, the structural stress generated when the austenite structure transforms into the martensitic structure is reduced, thus guaranteeing that a workpiece does not crack and a deeper hardening layer can be obtained. The process provided in the invention is suitable for quench cooling of H13 steel.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a steel quenching process, in particular to a quenching and cooling process for H13 steel. Background technique [0002] Die-casting molds generally use H13 steel with better hardenability. The more commonly used quenching methods are water quenching and oil quenching, but for H13 steel with better hardenability, water quenching is not suitable for the whole process, because water has a strong cooling ability, direct quenching, in the martensitic transformation temperature zone If the cooling rate is too high, the internal stress will increase sharply due to the dual effects of tissue stress and thermal stress, causing serious deformation or even cracking of the parts; it is also not suitable to use oil quenching, because the cooling rate of oil quenching is small, the hardening diameter is small, and large workpieces Not easy to harden. [0003] At present, there is no simple and convenient quenching and cooling process that...
