TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of steel metallurgy, in particular to a kind of steel pipe production line composite reinforced conveying roller and its manufacturing method. BACKGROUND
[0002] Steel pipe conveying roller is an important component on the seamless steel pipe production line of steel plant, which mainly plays the role of conveying steel pipe. The conveying roller is usually subjected to water cooling and impact and friction of steel pipe during work. Its failure mainly includes high-temperature wear, cold and hot fatigue, impact wear, etc. The surface failure of steel pipe conveying roller can seriously affect the surface quality of steel pipe, causing scratches on the surface of steel pipe.
[0003] At present, the common surface strengthening methods of steel pipe conveying roller mainly include surfacing and spray welding. The steel pipe conveying roller strengthened by surfacing usually has coarse surfacing layer organization, insufficient wear resistance, and early wear grooves during use, thereby causing scratches on the surface of steel pipe. The steel pipe conveying roller strengthened by spray welding usually has chipping phenomenon due to long-term cold and hot fatigue and impact. The steel pipe conveying roller manufactured by using these methods cannot meet the increasing requirements of long service life and high quality of steel plant, and the current general service life is about one year. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new technical processes to prolong the service life of steel pipe conveying roller.
[0004] Chinese patent CN201310264296.3 discloses a process for laser cladding wear-resistant and heat-resistant alloy coating on hot-rolled seamless steel pipe conveying roller. Although this process improves the wear resistance and high-temperature resistance to some extent, it mainly has the following problems: (1) high difficulty in process control during cladding: high-hardness alloy powder is mixed with tungsten carbide, and cracks are easily generated in the cladding layer. Once cracks exist in the cladding layer, the base is corroded by cooling water during use, resulting in peeling of the coating; (2) the roller surface of steel pipe conveying roller is generally V-shaped, and the high-hardness ceramic coating can only be processed by grinding, which has high processing difficulty and cost. Therefore, the process for manufacturing steel pipe conveying roller by using laser cladding method has the disadvantages of uncontrollable quality and high cost. SUMMARY
[0005] The present application provides a kind of steel pipe production line composite reinforced conveying roller and its manufacturing method, which combines the intermediate laser cladding layer and the surface spray coating, so that the steel pipe production line composite reinforced conveying roller has excellent high-temperature resistance, cold and hot fatigue resistance and wear resistance, prolonging the service life of the steel pipe conveying roller. At the same time, the processing difficulty of the method is small, the quality is controllable, and the processing cost is low.
[0006] The present application provides a kind of steel pipe production line composite reinforced conveying roller, which has a V-shaped groove on the roller surface, and the V-shaped groove is composed of a cast steel base, an intermediate laser cladding layer and a surface spray coating.
[0007] Wherein, the cast steel base is annealed after casting, and the hardness is 220-260HB.

[0009] Wherein, the chemical composition and mass percentage of the sprayed layer are: 88-90% WC, 10-12% Co.
[0010] Wherein, the effective thickness of the laser cladding layer is 1.0-1.2mm, and the effective thickness of the sprayed layer is 0.1-0.2mm.
[0011] Wherein, the hardness of the laser cladding layer is 45-50HRC, and the hardness of the sprayed layer is 1200±100Hv.
[0012] The manufacturing method of the composite reinforced conveying roller of the steel pipe production line comprises the following steps:
[0013] ① Rough turning of the conveying roller base: turning the conveying roller blank, and processing grooves according to the actual use area, the groove depth is 1.2-1.4mm;
[0014] ② Laser cladding of the intermediate layer: laser cladding is carried out in the groove by using a semiconductor laser, and the cladding thickness is 1.6-1.8mm; the chemical composition and mass percentage of the laser cladding layer are: 28-32% Cr, 1-3% Ni, 2-3% Mo, 1-2% Si, 1-2% B, 0.8-1.2% C, 5-8% W, and the rest is Co;
[0015] ③ Turning of the cladding layer: the conveying roller is cooled to room temperature, the cladding layer is processed by using a lathe, the cladding layer is bright in the round, and the remaining thickness of the cladding layer is ensured to be 1.0-1.2mm.
[0016] ④ Spraying: a 0.1-0.2mm thick ceramic coating is prepared on the cladding layer by using supersonic flame spraying; the chemical composition and mass percentage of the sprayed layer are: 88-90% WC, 10-12% Co;
[0017] ⑤ Polishing: the sprayed layer is polished by using a diamond abrasive belt, and the roughness after polishing is Ra 1.6-3.2;
[0018] ⑥ Dimension inspection and dye penetrant testing: the size after processing is inspected according to the processing process requirements, and the wear-resistant layer is subjected to dye penetrant testing to ensure that there is no crack and other defects;
[0019] ⑦ Final inspection: the finished conveying roller is inspected according to the drawing and technical agreement requirements.
[0020] In step 2, the laser cladding process parameters are as follows: a circular spot is used, the spot diameter is 5mm, the laser power is 2800-3200W, the scanning speed is 600-800mm / min, the powder feeding rate is 40-45g / min, and the overlap rate is 45%-50%.
[0021] In step 4, the spraying process parameters are as follows: supersonic spraying is used, the gun tube size is 6 inches, the oxygen is 1950-2000scfh, the kerosene is 6.6-7.0 gal / hr, and the powder feeding rate is 53-58g / min.
[0022] The principle and advantages of the steel pipe production line composite reinforced conveying roller and the manufacturing method thereof are as follows: 1. the middle laser cladding layer is made of cobalt-based alloy, has excellent high-temperature resistance and cold and hot fatigue resistance, and the cladding layer will not crack and is firmly combined with the base; 2. the surface spraying layer is made of metal ceramic and has a hardness of 1200±100Hv and excellent wear resistance; 3. the surface spraying layer is prepared by a supersonic spraying process, and the roughness is generally Ra4-6, the surface roughness is good, and the subsequent only needs to be polished to meet the roughness requirement of the finished product, and the process is easy to implement; 4. if the spraying layer is directly prepared on the cast steel base, the eggshell effect will usually occur: the spraying layer is usually 0.1-0.2mm, although it has excellent wear resistance, but due to the soft base, under the impact, the coating is easily broken like an eggshell, and the present application solves this problem by setting the middle laser cladding layer with a hardness of 45-50HRC. In summary, the combination of the middle laser cladding layer and the surface spraying layer makes the steel pipe production line composite reinforced conveying roller have excellent high-temperature resistance, cold and hot fatigue resistance and wear resistance, and prolongs the service life of the steel pipe production line composite reinforced conveying roller, which can reach 1.5-2 years. At the same time, the processing difficulty of the method is small, the quality is controllable, and the processing cost is low. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
