Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of hot-rolled seamless steel pipes, and in particular to a hot-rolling forming method for thick-walled square steel pipes capable of improving corner forming quality. Background Art

[0002] Square steel tubes or rectangular steel tubes are widely used in construction fields such as steel structure, machinery manufacturing, and building frame construction. At present, the forming processes of square steel tubes or rectangular steel tubes include hot rolling forming process, cold drawing forming process, and welded square tube process. Among them, the cold drawing forming process has the defects of many steps, small deformation per pass, long production cycle and low forming efficiency. The welded square tube process uses hot-rolled strip steel as raw material, and is formed by multiple extrusion passes and welding. No heat treatment is performed during the entire process, and the stress generated during the extrusion forming process cannot be eliminated. For the welded square tube process, the cold-bent square and rectangular tubes produced by this forming method, except for the limited area of ​​the bending angle, the material properties of the remaining parts of the tube body are basically similar to those of the parent body. In particular, the closure of the weld seam is not ideal, the forming process is unstable, and it is difficult to obtain high-quality products.

[0003] Hot-rolled seamless square tubes are suitable for mass production and have high production efficiency. Hot-rolled square steel tubes can destroy the casting structure of steel ingots, refine the grains of steel, and eliminate defects in microstructure, thereby making the steel structure denser and greatly improving the mechanical properties. However, during the hot rolling process, square or rectangular steel tubes are prone to low forming accuracy, especially the problem of many corner forming defects. The defects include: asymmetry and fullness problems of corner forming, forming limit and internal corner cracking. If hot-rolled seamless steel tubes are used as billets, hot-rolled seamless square or rectangular steel tubes can be formed, which can greatly improve the forming efficiency of square and rectangular steel tubes. However, how to improve the overall forming accuracy of square or rectangular steel tubes during hot rolling, especially to improve the quality of corner forming, has become a difficult problem that needs to be solved on site.
