Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metallurgy, and in particular relates to a method for improving the hardenability stability of steel for a wheel body of an engineering machinery. Background Art
[0002] The construction machinery industry is an important pillar industry for the development of my country's national economy. It plays a vital role in my country's economic construction, especially in the construction of major engineering projects and new urbanization. Crawler-type construction machinery is the main force in construction machinery equipment. The important units of its travel and support system include guide wheels, supporting rollers, sprocket wheels, drive wheels and crawler assemblies. The crawler travel mechanism relies on the drive wheel to transmit the driving force provided by the travel motor to the crawler; the guide wheel provides guidance for the rotation of the crawler chain, and adjusts the movement trajectory of the crawler to avoid derailment and deviation of the crawler during walking; the supporting roller supports the weight of the whole machine and evenly distributes the pressure on the crawler of the grounding department. Because the service conditions of crawler-type construction machinery are very harsh, the road surface is often uneven, and it is often mixed with sand, stone, coal mud, etc., so the entire travel mechanism is subjected to great impact and load, especially the supporting roller wheel body is easy to wear, and fatigue failure is easy to cause after long-term work. Among them, the wheel body is a key component, and its reliability directly affects the stability and service life of the entire four-wheel and one-belt system. This requires that the steel used to manufacture the wheel body has excellent hardenability, high hardness, wear resistance, good strength and toughness, and high fatigue resistance, among which the stability of hardenability is particularly important.
[0003] It is generally believed that carbon can improve the hardenability of steel, manganese and chromium can significantly improve the hardenability of steel, although boron can also improve the hardenability of steel in multiples, but due to the large fluctuation of the hardenability of boron steel, and the difficulty of control is large, the hardenability bandwidth of stable control of boron steel has always been the subject of research of major steel enterprises. The size of hardenability bandwidth affects the degree of heat treatment deformation to a great extent, and then has an important impact on the assembly precision and use of mechanical parts. Because the hardenability bandwidth of boron steel is generally more than 6HRC at present, the application range of boron steel is mostly track assembly, and the wheel body material requiring higher hardenability generally adopts materials such as 50Mn, 40Mn2 that are more stable, and a few adopt the material that further improves Cr content on the basis of 35MnBH to stabilize hardenability, but the use cost of materials can be increased at the same time. How to further improve the stability of hardenability of engineering machinery wheel body steel 35MnBH is the problem to be solved by the present invention. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to address the above technical difficulties by reasonably designing the chemical composition of silicon and boron in steel, controlling the oxygen supply in converter smelting, using boron-containing silicon manganese to match silicon in place in one go during converter steelmaking, using aluminum particles and silicon carbide to deoxidize the slag interface in the LF refining process, appropriately increasing the argon flow rate, and adjusting the method and timing of adding ferroboron in the RH vacuum refining process, thereby improving the stability of the hardenability of steel for the wheel body of engineering machinery. In combination with the narrow composition control process, the hardenability bandwidth of steel for the wheel body of engineering machinery can be controlled within the range of ≤4HRC, which fully meets the use requirements of high-end engineering machinery users.
[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the steel for engineering machinery wheel body involved in the present invention takes 35MnBH as an example, and its chemical composition is calculated by weight percentage as follows: [C]: 0.34-0.36%, [Si]: 0.33-0.37%, [Mn]: 1.31-1.36%, [P]≤0.025%, [S]: ≤0.025%, [Cr]: 0.18-0.22%, [Al]: 0.020-0.045%, [Ti]: 0.020-0.045%, [B]: 0.0030-0.0040%, and the rest is Fe and unavoidable impurities.
[0006] The present invention provides a method for improving the hardenability stability of steel for a wheel body of an engineering machinery, comprising the steps of converter smelting, LF refining, RH vacuum refining, continuous casting and rolling, and the specific operations are as follows:
[0007] (1) The converter uses molten iron and scrap steel as steelmaking raw materials for oxygen blowing and stirring smelting. The oxygen consumption per furnace is 5000-6500m 3 , re-blowing is prohibited, tapping [C] is controlled to be ≥ 0.10%, tapping [P] is ≤ 0.015%, tapping temperature is ≥ 1600℃, and deoxidizer, boron-containing silicon manganese, high carbon ferromanganese, high carbon ferrochrome, low carbon recarburizer and slag are added in sequence with the steel flow when 1 / 3 of the steel is tapped. The slag includes lime and slag-reducing agent;
[0008] The amount of the deoxidizer added is 200 kg / furnace of aluminum block; boron-containing silicon-manganese is added once according to the target silicon content of 0.33%, and its addition amount is 18.5-19.5 kg / t; high carbon ferromanganese is added in an amount of 0.2-0.8 kg / t; high carbon ferrochrome is added in an amount of 3.0-3.8 kg / t; the amount of slag added is 500 kg / furnace of lime and 200 kg / furnace of slag-removing agent.
[0009] The low oxygen content and high carbon steel tapping operation is used to reduce the oxidizability of molten steel. At the same time, the amount of aluminum blocks is increased to further strengthen deoxidation. Secondly, the silicon content in the molten steel is adjusted to the target value by adding boron-containing silicon-manganese at one time. Silicon generally exists in the form of solid solution in ferrite or austenite. Higher silicon can cooperate with manganese to improve hardenability and help improve the stability of hardenability. In the steel tapping process, the silicon content is adjusted to the right level by using boron-containing silicon-manganese at one time without using ferrosilicon alloy, which can reduce production costs and reduce the pressure of composition adjustment in LF refining. Finally, part of the boron in boron-containing silicon-manganese will also be oxidized and enter the molten steel and slag.
[0010] (2) The LF refining furnace is well sealed and the internal positive pressure is controlled. The LF uses aluminum particles and silicon carbide for composite deoxidation of the slag interface. The amount of aluminum particles added is 2.3-3.8 kg / t, and the amount of silicon carbide added is 1.0-1.5 kg / t. The bottom blowing argon flow rate is appropriately increased and controlled at 550-650 m 3 / h.
[0011] LF uses aluminum particles and silicon carbide for composite deoxidation of the slag interface. The gas generated by the reaction of silicon carbide and oxygen can be used to improve the foaming efficiency, and a large bottom blowing argon flow rate can be used to increase the kinetic conditions of the interface reaction. Adding more aluminum particles to deoxidize the slag surface can, on the one hand, deoxidize to generate Al2O3, and on the other hand, aluminum will reduce the boron in the slag to the molten steel, so as to form a "boron-retaining" atmosphere in the molten steel in advance.
[0012] (3) RH vacuum treatment uses argon as the boost gas, with a boost gas flow rate of 96 to 120 Nm 3 / h, vacuum degree ≤133Pa, vacuum holding time 10~15min,
[0013] Furthermore, the RH vacuum treatment process also includes the following steps: after breaking the air, first feed titanium iron wire, feed a certain amount of carbon wire according to the carbon content in the steel, and then feed an appropriate amount of silicon calcium wire, and then perform soft argon blowing operation, the soft blowing time is ≥15min, after soft blowing, ensure the appropriate hanging bag temperature, feed boron iron wire before hanging the bag, and hang the bag to put steel until continuous casting;
[0014] Preferably, the titanium iron wire feeding amount in step (3) is 320-420 m / furnace; the silicon calcium wire feeding amount is 60-120 m / furnace for the open-cast furnace and 40-80 m / furnace for the continuous casting furnace; the bag temperature after soft blowing is 1567-1597° C. for the open-cast furnace and 1542-1572° C. for the continuous casting furnace;
[0015] The ferroboron wire is fed before the hanging bag, according to the target boron content of 0.0035%, and the feeding amount is 110m-140m / furnace; the boron content of the ferroboron wire is ≥16%, the wire diameter is 13mm, and the powder particle size is 0-5mm.
[0016] Since the diffusion rate of boron in molten steel is very fast, the boron iron wire with fine inner core particle size can be directly fed before the ladle is hung, and it will not affect the uniformity of boron distribution in the steel. At this time, the molten steel has been LF refined, RH high vacuum treated, wire fed, soft blown, deoxidation and nitrogen fixation are completed, and oxygen and nitrogen are at extremely low levels. Boron is directly fed into the molten steel in the form of cored wire, which improves the utilization rate of boron. After entering the molten steel, most of the boron will exist in the form of solid solution boron. At the same time, the total boron content is designed to be 0.0030% to 0.0040%, which can further ensure the solid solution boron content in the molten steel, prevent the threat of oxygen absorption and nitrogen increase in the continuous casting process to the existence of effective boron, and improve the stability of hardenability.
[0017] (4) The continuous casting process adopts full protection casting, the long water inlet of the large ladle is sealed with argon, the argon filling and exhaust time of the middle ladle before pouring is ≥5min, and argon gas pipes are placed in the impact area of the middle ladle and the plug hole;
[0018] Furthermore, the continuous casting tundish adopts an integral coating material or a dry material plug rod tundish, uses a Vesuvius magnesium plug rod and an immersed nozzle, adopts reasonable superheat and constant pulling speed control, the superheat is controlled at 20-40°C, and the pulling speed is controlled at 0.95±0.05m / min; the crystallizer electromagnetic stirring parameter is 200A / 2.5Hz, the sinusoidal vibration parameter is amplitude ±2.5mm, frequency 130+40V opm, the crystallizer electromagnetic stirring parameter is 80A / 6.0Hz, and the crystallizer protective slag is used;
[0019] Preferably, the crystallizer protective slag in step (4) uses special protective slag for anchor chain steel, with a total carbon content of 16-20%, an F content of 2.5-4%, a CaO content of 22-28%, a SiO2 content of 22-30%, an Al2O3 content of 7-12%, a basicity of R=0.90-1.0, and a moisture content of ≤0.3%.
[0020] Measures such as full-process protective casting, argon sealing of the long water nozzle of the large ladle, and argon filling and exhaust of the middle ladle before pouring can avoid secondary oxidation of the molten steel and prevent the molten steel from absorbing nitrogen.
[0021] (5) The rolling process uses high-pressure water to remove phosphorus at a pressure of 18MPa to 25MPa to ensure that the surface oxide scale of the continuous casting billet is completely removed; the preheating section temperature is 800-900℃, the soaking section temperature is 1130-1180℃, the start rolling temperature is 1050-1130℃, the final rolling temperature is ≤920℃, the shearing temperature is 200-500℃, the total heating time is 2.5-4h, and the steel-out rhythm is 82-160s / roll.
[0022] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0023] The present invention effectively improves the stability of the hardenability of steel for the wheel body of engineering machinery through reasonable chemical composition design, selection of process route and optimization of process parameters, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing its hardenability bandwidth. Combined with the narrow composition control process, the hardenability bandwidth of steel for the wheel body of engineering machinery can be controlled within the range of ≤4HRC, which fully meets the use requirements of high-end engineering machinery users.
[0024] Compared with the existing process technology, the process of the present invention adopts measures such as reasonably designing the chemical composition of silicon and boron in steel, controlling the oxygen supply during converter smelting, using boron-containing silicon manganese to match silicon in place in one go during converter steelmaking, using aluminum particles and silicon carbide to deoxidize the steel slag interface in the LF refining process, appropriately increasing the argon gas flow rate, and adjusting the boron iron adding method and timing in the RH vacuum refining process, thereby improving the stability of the hardenability of steel for the wheel body of engineering machinery, reducing its hardenability bandwidth, improving the market competitiveness of the product, and having significant economic and social benefits.
