Those skilled in the art may make similar modifications without violating the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0018] The walking beam heating furnace, four-roll reversing roughing mill and double-stand Steckel mill involved in the present invention are all well-known mature technology products in the existing steel rolling technology field. Therefore, the specific structure and working principle of the walking beam heating furnace, four-roll reversing roughing mill and double-stand Steckel mill will not be described in detail here.
[0019] The present invention provides a method for rolling cemented carbide N06625 in a Steckel mill, wherein the method mainly adopts a two-fire heating and double-rolling process to realize coil rolling of cemented carbide N06625, and specifically comprises the following steps: S1, first rolling process; S1.1 Slabs are put into the furnace and heated with one fire: the slabs are put into the walking beam furnace for heating and the temperature range of each heating stage and the temperature range of the furnace are set, and the furnace residence time is also set; specifically, the thickness of the selected slab is 180±2mm. In this specific embodiment, the thickness of the slab is 180mm; the temperature ranges of each heating furnace section of the walking beam furnace are: the temperature range of the first heating section: 1120±20℃, the temperature range of the second heating section: 1210±20℃; the temperature range of the third heating section: 1220±20℃; the temperature range of the soaking section: 1220±20℃; the furnace discharge temperature range: 1200±10℃, and the furnace residence time of the slab in the walking beam furnace is not less than 200mi n, in actual application, it can be set between 200 and 300 minutes. In actual application, the length of each heating furnace section of the walking beam heating furnace is fixed. The walking beam heating furnace reasonably controls the stepping movement speed of the slab in the furnace according to the set dwelling time, and then realizes the time distribution of the slab in each furnace section; the temperature of each section, the furnace discharge temperature and the furnace dwelling time can be specifically: 1120℃, 1210℃, 1220℃, 1220℃, 1200℃ and 210 minutes. In this step, the furnace discharge temperature is raised to supplement the cooling of the slab in the subsequent rolling process, so that in the subsequent rolling process, the temperature of the slab is always maintained in a reasonable hot working range, which is conducive to the first hot rolling shaping of the slab; S1.2 slab rolling: The slab is rolled out of the furnace using a four-roll reversible roughing mill to obtain a slab. Specifically, nine reciprocating rolling passes are used, with a rolling speed of ≤2.5 m / s per pass and a reduction ratio of ≤5% per pass. At the same time, the vertical rolls are not subjected to side pressure, and the thickness of the obtained slab is within the range of 120 ± 2 mm. In this specific embodiment, by reasonably setting the reduction ratio per pass, the thickness of the final slab is 120 mm. S1.3 Surface grinding: Grind the surface cracks of the blank plate with a grinding rate of 3-6%. Specifically, first use a 16# coarse grinding wheel and then a 20# grinding wheel to grind the cracks on the upper and lower surfaces of the blank plate. Use the PT flaw detection method to detect the surface of the blank plate until there are no cracks on the upper and lower surfaces of the blank plate. The thickness of the blank plate after grinding is 115mm.
[0020] S2, the second rolling process: S2.1 Billet plate entering the furnace and secondary heating: send the billet plate into the walking beam heating furnace for secondary heating and set the temperature range of each heating stage of the walking beam heating furnace and the temperature range of the furnace discharge, and set the furnace residence time; specifically, the temperature setting of each heating furnace section of the walking beam heating furnace is as follows: the temperature range of the first heating section: 1120±20℃, the temperature range of the second heating section: 1210±20℃; the temperature range of the third heating section: 1220±20℃; the temperature range of the soaking section: 1240±20℃; the furnace discharge temperature range: 1230±10℃; the residence time of the billet in the walking beam heating furnace is not less than 200min, and can be set at 200~300m in actual application. in. In actual application, the length of each heating furnace section of the walking beam heating furnace is determined. The walking beam heating furnace reasonably controls the stepping movement speed of the billet plate in the furnace according to the set furnace dwelling time, and then realizes the time distribution of the billet in each furnace section; the temperature of each furnace section, the furnace discharge temperature and the furnace dwelling time can be specifically: 1120℃, 1210℃, 1220℃, 1240℃, 1230℃ and 220min; in this step, the furnace discharge temperature is raised to supplement the cooling of the billet plate in the subsequent rolling process, so that in the subsequent rolling process, the temperature of the billet plate is always maintained in a reasonable hot working range, which is conducive to the subsequent hot rolling shaping of the billet plate; S2.2 Rough rolling: The billet is rolled out of the furnace using a four-roll reversible roughing mill to obtain an intermediate billet. Specifically, the billet is rolled using a four-roll reversible roughing mill with nine reciprocating passes, a single-pass reduction ratio of ≤20%, a rolling force of ≤50,000 kN, a rolling speed of ≤5.5 m / s, and no side pressure from the vertical rolls. The thickness of the intermediate billet obtained is in the range of 23 ± 2 mm. In this specific embodiment, by reasonably controlling the single-pass reduction ratio and gradually increasing the reduction ratio from the first to the eighth pass, the thickness of the intermediate billet obtained is 23 mm. S2.3 Steckel mill rolling: The intermediate slab is rolled using a double-stand Steckel mill, and the temperatures of the inlet coiling furnace and the outlet coiling furnace are 1120±10℃. Specifically, six passes of reciprocating rolling are adopted, with a single pass reduction rate ≤20%, a rolling force ≤48000KN, and a rolling speed ≤10m / s. The thickness range of the obtained hot rolled strip is: 8±0.3mm. In this specific embodiment, the forward shift of the reduction amount is achieved by reasonably controlling the single pass reduction rate, and at the same time, the reduction rate from the first pass to the third pass is gradually reduced, and the thickness of the obtained rolled strip is 8mm.
[0021] S2.4 layer cooling and coiling; specifically, after the rolling of the strip after 8mm is completed, the laminar cooling device is used to cool the strip. When the strip passes through the laminar cooling area, the laminar cooling area does not supply cooling water. The lack of cooling water causes the temperature of the strip to drop slowly, thereby facilitating the coiling of the strip. The strip after passing through the laminar cooling area is coiled into a coil by a coiler. When the coiler is used to coil the steel strip, the coiler is tensioned after coiling 4 turns. After the steel strip is coiled 4 turns, its coiling stability is improved, so it is convenient for subsequent coiling.
[0022] The above method successfully realizes the coil rolling of cemented carbide N06625, which helps to reduce the production and processing costs of cemented carbide N06625 and also helps it meet the needs of downstream processing procedures.
[0023] The above rolling method is further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments: S1, the first tying process; S1.1 Slabs are placed in the furnace and heated in one fire. The thickness of the slabs produced by the existing continuous casting machine is 180 mm. The thickness of the selected slabs was measured on site and was 181.88 mm thick and approximately 7500 mm long. The slabs were placed in a walking beam furnace for heating. The temperatures of the heating sections of the walking beam furnace were as follows: first heating section temperature 1130°C; second heating section temperature 1220°C; third heating section temperature 1230°C; soaking section temperature 1230°C; and furnace discharge temperature 1210°C. The dwell time was 230 minutes. S1.2 slab rolling: The slab is rolled using a four-roll reversible roughing mill to obtain a slab. The specific rolling parameters of slab rolling are shown in Table 1. Table 1 The first rolling process of the slab rolling procedure As shown in Table 1, after the slab is rolled nine times in the four-roll reversing roughing mill, the thickness of the final slab is 121.36 mm (hot value). S1.3 Surface grinding: Grind the surface cracks of the blank plate. First use a 16# coarse grinding wheel and then a 20# grinding wheel to grind the cracks on the upper and lower surfaces of the blank plate. Use the PT flaw detection method to detect the surface of the blank plate until there are no cracks on the upper and lower surfaces of the blank plate. The thickness of the blank plate after grinding is 114.93mm (cold value).
[0024] S2, the second rolling process: S2.1 Billet plate into the furnace and second fire heating: The temperatures of the heating sections of the walking beam furnace are: first heating section temperature 1130°C; second heating section temperature 1220°C; third heating section temperature 1230°C; soaking section temperature 1250°C; furnace discharge temperature 1240°C; and furnace dwell time 260 minutes. S2.2 Rough rolling: The billet is rolled out of the furnace using a four-roll reversing rough rolling mill to obtain an intermediate billet. The specific parameters for rolling into coils are shown in Table 2. Table 2 Second rolling process rough rolling regulations From the contents of Table 2 above, it can be seen that after the billet plate is rolled nine times by the four-roll reversing roughing mill, the thickness of the intermediate billet finally obtained is 23.34 mm (hot value); S2.3 Steckel mill rolling: The intermediate slab is rolled using a double-stand Steckel mill. The inlet and outlet coiling furnace temperatures are 1120°C. The specific finishing rolling parameters are shown in Table 3. Table 3 Second rolling process finishing rolling regulations As shown in Table 3, after six passes of the slab on the double-stand Steckel mill, the thickness of the final strip is 8.25 mm (hot value). S2.4 Layer cooling and coiling; specifically, after the strip is rolled, the strip is cooled by a laminar cooling device. When the strip passes through the laminar cooling area, no cooling water is supplied to the laminar cooling area. After passing through the laminar cooling area, the strip is coiled into a coil by a coiler. When the coiler is used to coil the steel strip, the coiler is stretched after coiling 4 turns, and the strip is coiled into a coil by the coiler.
