Abstract

The invention discloses a smelting method capable of reducing inclusions of spring steel. The smelting method includes the following steps of (1) smelting through a high carbon withdrawing process; (2) argon blowing; (3) refining in an LF furnace; (4) vacuum treatment; (5) LF soft blowing; and (6) spring steel rolling. Especially, aluminum-free deoxidation is adopted during smelting through the high carbon withdrawing process, and a low-alkalinity slag process is adopted during refining in the LF furnace. According to the smelting method capable of reducing inclusions of spring steel, on the basis of researching thermodynamics and kinetics for separation out of inclusions, the content of oxides is lowered by controlling the deoxidation depth during smelting, the low-alkalinity slag process facilitates plasticization of inclusions, the plasticized inclusions can easily aggregate and grow up, flotation removal is facilitated during soft blowing in secondary refining, and therefore the purpose of controlling the level of nonmetal inclusions of spring steel is achieved; and the problem of judgment amending caused by exceeding of inclusions is completely solved, and the production cost is greatly lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of spring steel production, and is particularly suitable for a smelting method for reducing inclusions in spring steel. Background technique [0002] As a key material required for major equipment manufacturing and national key project construction, spring steel is widely used in aircraft, automobiles, railway vehicles and other transportation tools and construction machinery and other equipment. Springs and other spring materials with similar functions are used under high stress conditions, so they have high requirements for steel quality. Non-metallic inclusions in steel destroy the continuity of the matrix, which is the main cause of early fatigue and fracture of springs. One of the reasons, improving the fatigue performance has become one of the key research points of spring steel. [0003] Patent CN104056871B provides a spring steel wire production process for controlling inclusions. By controlling the...
