Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of steel pipe polishing processing, and in particular relates to a polishing method for a seamless steel pipe. Background Art

[0002] Seamless steel pipes are used in medical, automotive, military and aviation fields. Some application fields have strict requirements on the smoothness of their inner and outer surfaces. Therefore, they need to be polished before leaving the factory to meet the supply requirements. At present, the common polishing methods for seamless steel pipes are mechanical polishing and chemical polishing; mechanical polishing has low processing costs and high surface brightness, but pure mechanical polishing is difficult to meet the supply quality requirements. Due to the special structure of the steel pipe, it is difficult to control the polishing accuracy inside it; chemical polishing is mainly used for workpieces with complex structures. Chemical polishing can polish workpieces with complex structures, and has low processing costs. The workpieces after chemical polishing have better corrosion resistance; currently, most steel pipes are polished by mechanical polishing, and pure mechanical polishing is difficult to meet the supply requirements. Therefore, a combination of mechanical polishing and chemical polishing is adopted to make the smoothness of the inner and outer surfaces of the steel pipe reach a higher level, and the production efficiency is high, which is suitable for batch processing. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a polishing method for seamless steel pipes, which can overcome the disadvantage that it is difficult to control the internal precision of seamless steel pipes by mechanical polishing. It adopts a combination of mechanical polishing and chemical polishing, uses pickling liquid to pre-treat it, then uses mechanical polishing to make its surface smooth, and then uses polishing liquid to fine-polish it, so as to achieve a polishing effect with consistent smoothness of the inner and outer surfaces.

[0009] Furthermore, in step S3, the polishing liquid has a component formula of: 100 parts of water, 15-20 parts of methacrylamide gelatin, 2-4 parts of nitric acid, 10-12 parts of hydrochloric acid, 5-10 parts of trifluoroacetic acid, 3-6 parts of thickener and 1 part of photosensitizer.

[0010] Furthermore, in step S3, the steel pipe is immersed in the polishing liquid for 30-45 minutes.

[0011] Furthermore, in step S3, the temperature of the polishing liquid is controlled at 2-5°C.

[0012] Furthermore, in step S3, the specific operation method of making the polishing liquid form a solidified layer on the surface of the steel pipe is: take the steel pipe out of the polishing liquid and place it vertically, wait for the polishing liquid on its surface to drain, use an ultraviolet lamp to irradiate the inside and outside of it for 30-60s, and wait for the polishing liquid on its surface to solidify to form a solidified layer.
