Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of grain-oriented silicon steel production, and in particular to high-quality plate-shaped grain-oriented silicon steel and a production method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Grain-oriented electrical steel is consumed in huge quantities every year and is widely used in various fields of the national economy, such as power transformation, power generation and electricity consumption. It has high requirements for production technology, equipment, operation and on-site management, and is known as the "craft" among steel products.

[0003] In view of the increasingly tight energy situation and the urgent need for energy conservation and consumption reduction in the power industry, continuously improving its performance and reducing its iron loss have become the focus of competition and a highly concerned research topic in the silicon steel manufacturing industry.

[0004] Due to differences in production processes, the current production method for ordinary grain-oriented silicon steel mostly involves only low-temperature recovery annealing after secondary cold rolling. In addition, factors such as the structure of the furnace itself and the characteristics of the furnace floor result in uneven stress release in the steel plate. The high-temperature annealing process can easily cause stress concentration in some parts of the steel coil, resulting in horseshoe prints and rib waves in the final product, causing material waste. Major companies are also constantly researching and exploring this issue to improve the utilization rate of finished materials. Summary of the invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention provides a superior flat-shaped grain-oriented silicon steel and a production method thereof. By optimizing the packaging method, employing a novel furnace platform structure and cooling troughs to control the flatness of the furnace floor during high-temperature annealing, and eliminating damage to the furnace floor caused by the cooling platform during cooling, the resulting grain-oriented silicon steel exhibits excellent flatness, free of undesirable defects such as rib ripples and horse hoof marks, and increases the yield rate by 5% to 10%.

[0006] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0007] A method for producing grain-oriented silicon steel with excellent plate shape comprises the following steps:

[0008] S1: The raw materials are subjected to ironmaking, steelmaking, hot rolling, cold rolling, decarburization, and secondary cold rolling to obtain cold-rolled steel sheets with a thickness of 0.10 to 0.35 mm;

[0009] S2: After coating the surface of the cold-rolled steel sheet with magnesium oxide, the steel sheet is coiled and formed into triangular steel strips to obtain semi-finished silicon steel coils;

[0010] S3: placing the semi-finished silicon steel coil obtained in S2 in a heating furnace, heating it, keeping it warm, and then cooling it to room temperature;

[0011] S4: Stretch and flatten to obtain oriented silicon steel with excellent plate shape.

[0012] Further, in S2, the winding is carried out by two-stage constant tension winding.

[0013] Further, the specific method of the two-stage constant tension winding is as follows: when the outer diameter ≤ 1500 mm, the winding is carried out with a tension coefficient of 1.0 - 1.2, and the winding tension value is 1600 - 1800 KG; when the outer diameter of the steel coil > 1500 mm, the winding is carried out with a tension coefficient of 1.2 - 1.4, and the winding tension value is 1800 KG - 2000 KG.

[0014] Further, in S2, the specific method of strapping is as follows: two steel straps are strapped at the positions of 1 / 3 and 2 / 3 from the bottom of the steel plate, and one steel strap is strapped at the position of 10 mm from the bottom of the steel plate, and the pressure of the strapping belt is 0.5 - 2 KG.

[0015] Further, in S3, the heating furnace includes a furnace platform bottom plate 10, a furnace platform base 11, a refractory brick layer 1, a resistance belt 2, and an exhaust pipe 3 in the furnace; a refractory brick layer 1 is provided on the furnace platform bottom plate 10; the resistance belt 2 is arranged in the space surrounded by the refractory brick layer 1, and the height of the resistance belt 2 is less than that of the refractory brick layer 1.

[0016] Further, the refractory brick layer 1 includes multiple layers of annular refractory bricks 101 distributed in a circular ring shape from the center of the furnace platform to the edge, linear refractory bricks I 102 distributed radially from the center of the furnace platform to each layer of annular refractory bricks; and linear refractory bricks II 103 distributed linearly from the first layer of annular refractory bricks to the Nth layer of annular refractory bricks, N ≥ 3; the multiple layers mean ≥ 3 layers.

[0017] Further, a base refractory brick layer 104 is laid on the bottom surface surrounded by the outermost layer of the multiple layers of annular refractory bricks 101 and the furnace platform bottom plate 10; except for the outermost layer of the multiple layers of annular refractory bricks 101, the remaining refractory bricks of the refractory brick layer 1 are arranged on the upper surface of the base refractory brick layer 104.

[0018] Further, the bottoms of the resistance belts are connected to each other; the material of the refractory brick is high-aluminum refractory brick; the resistance belt is an iron-chromium-aluminum flat belt; the width of the annular refractory brick is 40 - 70 mm; the linear refractory bricks I and II can be collectively referred to as linear refractory bricks, the width of the linear refractory brick is less than that of the annular refractory brick, and the width of the linear refractory brick is 20 - 50 mm; the height difference between the annular refractory brick and the linear refractory brick is 0 - 12 mm (the average height of the annular refractory brick minus the average height of the linear refractory brick).

[0019] The number of the annular refractory bricks and the linear refractory bricks is determined according to the size of the furnace platform and the load it bears.

[0020] Further, in S3, the cooling is to place the silicon steel coil that has been pre-cooled after heat preservation (cooled to 350°C after heat preservation) in a cooling tank for cooling to room temperature; the cooling tank includes a tank bottom, quartz sand, and high-temperature resistant cloth; the quartz sand is laid on the tank bottom of the cooling tank, and 2 to 5 layers of high-temperature resistant cloth are laid on the quartz sand; the thickness of the quartz sand is 100 to 500 mm; the high-temperature resistant cloth is a flame-retardant heat-insulating cloth; high temperature resistance means a temperature resistance of more than 800°C.

[0021] An oriented silicon steel with excellent flatness prepared by the production method.

[0022] The beneficial technical effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0023] (1) By optimizing the furnace structure and flexibly adjusting the layout position of the resistance bands according to the steel coil, the present invention makes the steel coil more uniform during heating and heat preservation, makes the cooling rate of the steel coil in each direction close, avoids the phenomenon that the local cooling rate is too large, resulting in stress concentration and deformation of the steel coil, and at the same time rearranges the refractory bricks, making the force on the entire furnace platform more uniform in the plane direction, reducing the damage of local refractory bricks due to uneven force during the use of the furnace platform, resulting in unevenness of some positions of the furnace platform, deformation of the furnace bottom plate and local stress concentration of the steel coil, etc.

[0024] (2) The present invention optimizes the packing method. After the steel coil is wound after coating with magnesium oxide, three steel belts need to be tied. Two steel belts are tied at the 1 / 3 and 2 / 3 positions from the bottom of the steel plate (the operating side edge), and one steel belt is tied at the 10 mm position at the bottom of the steel plate (the operating side edge). Since the steel coil is placed vertically, the contact position between the bottom and the bottom plate is the most stressed, and the top is the least stressed. The new packing method makes the force on the entire steel coil more balanced in the vertical direction, which can greatly reduce the uneven force caused by the unbalanced interaction between the steel coil and the steel belt during the heating, heat preservation and cooling processes due to thermal expansion and cold contraction, and avoid the deformation of the steel coil caused thereby.

[0025] (3) By optimizing the cooling method, the present invention designs a special cooling tank, so that the edge of the annealed steel coil is in soft contact with the quartz sand covered with high-temperature resistant cloth during cooling, while the traditional cooling method is that the edge of the steel coil is in direct contact with the flat surface of the cooling platform. When there is local unevenness on the end face of the steel coil, it is easy to cause stress concentration and extrusion stress at this position. When the contact surface is quartz sand and high-temperature resistant cloth, the uneven points or surfaces on the end face of the steel coil can be released into the quartz sand, eliminating the defects at the edge.

[0088] The cooling tank itself is a steel structure, and the cooling tank includes a tank bottom, quartz sand, and a high-temperature resistant cloth (flame retardant and heat insulating cloth) with a temperature resistance of 800 °C; the quartz sand is laid on the bottom of the cooling tank, and 3 layers of flame retardant and heat insulating cloth are laid on the quartz sand, and the thickness of the quartz sand is 280 mm.

[0089] S4: After cooling, the steel coil is further subjected to stretch leveling and hot stretch leveling, and after winding, a silicon steel coil with excellent plate shape is obtained, with the width of the edge defect being 36 mm, the length of the head defect being 87 m, and the iron loss being 1.03 W / KG

[0090] Comparative Example 1

[0091] It is the same as Example 1, except that the winding tension is maintained at 1.0 throughout the winding process.

[0092] Comparative Example 2

[0093] It is the same as Example 2, except that two packing belts are used for packing, and the packing pressure is 9 kg.

[0094] Comparative Example 3

[0095] It is the same as Example 3, except that the traditional furnace platform structure is used, and the "staggered" furnace platform structure is not adopted.

[0096] Comparative Example 4

[0097] It is the same as Example 4, except that the cooling in the cooling tank is not adopted.

[0098] Test Example:

[0099] The grain-oriented electrical steel prepared in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-4 was uncoiled for production, and the width of edge defects and the length of head defects were measured. The measurement results are shown in Table 1.

[0100] Table 1

[0101] Example Width of edge defect (mm) Length of head defect (m) Iron loss (W / KG) Example 1 30 80 1.05 Example 2 20 50 1.03 Example 3 38 95 1.06 Example 4 36 87 1.03 Comparative Example 1 45 350 1.09 Comparative Example 2 49 550 1.08 Comparative Example 3 66 890 1.10 Comparative Example 4 58 770 1.11

[0102] As can be seen from Table 1: After changing the coiling tension in Comparative Example 1 compared with Example 1, the width of edge defects increased from 30 mm in Example 1 to 45 mm, and the length of head defects increased from 80 m to 350 m; after changing the packing method in Comparative Example 2, compared with Example 2, the width of edge defects increased from 20 mm in Example 2 to 49 mm, and the length of head defects increased from 50 m to 550 m; in Comparative Example 3, the "staggered" furnace structure described in the present invention was not adopted, and the bottom structure was extremely easy to deform, resulting in uneven stress on the steel coil during heating and significant increases in the width of edge defects and the length of head defects. However, through process optimization and the design of the "staggered" furnace structure in Example 3 of the present invention, the width of edge defects and the length of head defects were greatly reduced, and the material utilization rate was increased by 5% - 10%. Due to the more uniform distribution of the resistance bands, the performance of the entire steel coil during heating was more stable, and the iron loss performance was improved by about 3% compared with the original. In Comparative Example 4, the cooling tank was not adopted, resulting in a significant increase in iron loss.

[0103] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. What is described in the above embodiments and the specification is only to illustrate the principle of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present invention claimed.
