Heat treatment technology for niobium and titanium-containing steel for motor train unit axle

Abstract

The invention relates to a heat treatment technology for niobium and titanium-containing steel for a motor train unit axle. The technology comprises the following steps of 1, normalizing, wherein the niobium and titanium-containing steel for the high-speed motor train unit axle is heated to the temperature of 870 DEG C to 900 DEG C, the heating and heat preservation time in the temperature section is calculated according to 1.2 min/mm-1.7 min/mm, and air cooling is conducted; 2, quenching, wherein vanadium-containing steel for the high-speed motor train unit axle is heated to the temperature of 860 DEG C to 890 DEG C, the heating and heat preservation time in the temperature section is calculated according to 1.5 min/mm-2.0 min/mm, and then water quenching and oil cooling are conducted; 3, tempering, wherein the niobium and titanium-containing steel for the high-speed motor train unit axle is heated to the temperature of 620 DEG C to 680 DEG C, the heating and heat preservation time in the temperature section is calculated according to 2 min/mm-2.5 min/mm, and then the treated steel is air-cooled to room temperature. Compared with the prior art, the treated steel has the advantages of being high in strength and excellent in anti-fatigue performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of alloy steel, in particular to a steel alloy suitable for tensile strength 750-900MPa, yield strength ≥ 600MPa, -40°C KV 2 ≥150J, and require high-speed EMU axle steel with excellent fatigue resistance and its heat treatment process. Background technique [0002] The axle is one of the most important moving and load-bearing parts in various vehicles related to safety. Since the vehicle bearings are subject to dynamic loads, the stress state is relatively complex, such as bending load, torsional load, bending-torsion composite load, and is subject to certain impacts, especially for high-speed EMU axles, and its stress state is more complicated. Therefore, high-speed EMU axles may break due to fatigue, bending, torsion, or tensile stress during service, and fatigue fracture is a common form of high-speed axle fracture. In order to ensure the safe operation of vehicles, the axles of high-speed EMUs must have sufficie...

Problems solved by technology

For example, the anti-fatigue failure axle steel in Chinese patent application 201110417295.9 still adopts the idea of ​​high C content of traditional medium carbon axle steel, and the C content (0.42-0.45%) is relatively high, which makes the toughness of the steel poor and cannot meet the requirements of EMU axles. Requirements for toughness, and the range of improvement in fatigue resistance is limited

A new type of alloy steel for hollow axles in Chinese patent application 201210384581.4, although the carbon content is low, it has good strength and toughness, but the fatigue strength is still low

The EMU axles imported from Europe are mainly made of quenched and tempered alloy s
