AI Technical Summary
During the annealing of cold-rolled steel balls, the temperature control is unstable, which affects the hardness and machining properties of the steel balls.
A cold-rolled steel ball annealing temperature control process is adopted to control the temperature of the steel coil through steps. The specific steps include slowly heating to between 400° and 500°, insulation for 0.5 hours, then rising to 700-800 degrees for 2 hours, cooling to 600°, then being discharged for water quenching, and finally annealing is reduced to 70°-75° by air cooling or air cooling.
Through the implementation of the steps, the stable control of the annealing temperature of the cold-rolled steel ball is achieved, which smooths the cold-rolling process and reduces production costs.
Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of heat treatment technology for steel, in particular to a temperature control process for annealing a cold-rolled steel ball. Background Art
[0002] Cold rolling usually adopts the longitudinal rolling method. The process of cold rolling production generally includes raw material preparation, pickling, rolling, degreasing, annealing (heat treatment), finishing, etc. Annealing is a metal heat treatment process in which the metal is heated to a certain temperature, kept for a sufficient time, and then cooled at an appropriate speed (usually slow cooling, sometimes controlled cooling). The purpose is to reduce hardness and improve machinability. In production, the annealing process is widely used. According to the different purposes of annealing required by the workpiece, there are many annealing process specifications. Commonly used ones include complete annealing, spheroidizing annealing, and stress relief annealing. The heating temperature of spheroidizing annealing is the key factor affecting whether the degree of spheroidization is complete or not. The appropriate heating temperature can not only ensure the disappearance of lamellar pearlite, but also retain a part of the carbides that are not completely dissolved in austenite as the spheroidization core, and finally form a normal spheroidized structure of coarse granular carbides. When the austenitizing temperature is very high, the carbides are completely dissolved and homogenized, and lamellar pearlite is always obtained after cooling. The cooling rate directly affects the size and uniformity of the carbide particles. If the cooling is too fast, the carbide particles are too fine, and there is a possibility of forming flaky carbides, which makes the hardness too high. If the cooling is too slow, the carbide particles are too coarse. In order to solve the above problems, a cold-rolled steel ball annealing temperature control process is proposed to control the temperature of the steel coil through step control. Summary of the invention
[0003] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a temperature control process for annealing cold-rolled steel balls, which solves the technical problem of unstable temperature control during annealing of cold-rolled steel balls.
[0004] The solution adopted by the present invention is: a cold-rolled steel ball annealing temperature control process, the cold-rolled steel ball annealing temperature control process comprising the following steps:
[0005] Step 1: Send the cold-rolled steel to the annealing furnace, slowly heat it to between 400° and 500°, and keep it at 400° to 500° for 0.5h;
[0006] Step 2: After 2.5 hours, raise the temperature to 700-800 degrees and keep it warm for 2 hours;
[0007] Step 3: Cool down to 600° and then take out of the furnace, and water quench for 0.5h;
[0008] Step 4: Air-cool the cold-rolled steel ball after water quenching. When the temperature drops to 70°-75°, the annealing operation is completed.
[0009] Preferably, in step three, the cold-rolled steel ball is water quenched for 0.5 h and then air-cooled, and the annealing operation is completed after the temperature drops to 70°-75°.
