Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of diamond wire preparation technology, and particularly relates to a synergistic strengthening and toughening production process for diamond wire. Background Technology

[0002] Diamond wire is a wire-like product made of high-carbon steel, processed through cold drawing, cold rolling, and other techniques. Depending on its application, diamond wire can be further processed into different shapes and specifications. Due to its high strength and wear resistance, it has wide applications in many industrial and engineering fields, such as spring manufacturing, wire rope production, tool steel products, machine parts, cable sheathing, and the manufacture of wire mesh and wire cloth. It plays an important role in various applications including lifting equipment, construction, mining, machinery manufacturing, and cable protection.

[0003] In the production of diamond wire, cutting speed is a parameter that needs to be strictly controlled. The high strength of diamond wire allows it to withstand higher cutting speeds and loads, significantly improving cutting efficiency, which is particularly crucial in large-scale industrial production, effectively reducing cutting time and increasing production efficiency. However, while diamond wire possesses high hardness and strength, its corresponding toughness and plasticity are relatively low, making it prone to breakage under high loads and speeds. This compromises the continuity and stability of the cutting process, consequently reducing cutting precision and quality. Therefore, the synergistic design of strength and toughness in diamond wire is of great significance in industrial applications, especially in improving cutting efficiency and precision.

[0004] Patent application CN107841606A, entitled "A Method for Improving the Breaking Force and Strength of Diamond Wire Busbars," improves breaking force and strength by drawing, electroplating, and then aging at a low temperature of 60–120°C for 60–80 minutes. However, the long aging time prolongs the production cycle and increases production costs. Patent application CN115106391A, entitled "An Improved High-Carbon Steel Diamond Wire and its Preparation Process," improves the performance of diamond wire through two drawing processes and annealing at 100–150°C for 0.5–2 hours after the first drawing. However, this method has a low annealing temperature and a long annealing time, increasing production energy consumption and the production cycle.

[0005] Improving the production efficiency and reducing the production cost of diamond wire synergistic toughening remains an urgent problem to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the issues of low production efficiency and high cost in existing diamond wire synergistic strengthening methods, this invention provides a diamond wire synergistic strengthening production process.

[0007] The technical solution of the present invention:

[0008] A synergistic strengthening and toughening production process for diamond wire involves first drawing a wire rod to obtain diamond wire, subjecting the first-drawn diamond wire to a first austenitizing heat treatment, isothermal quenching, followed by a second drawing, subjecting the second-drawn diamond wire to a second austenitizing heat treatment, isothermal quenching, followed by a third drawing, and subjecting the third-drawn diamond wire to a low-temperature annealing treatment, followed by air cooling to room temperature; the low-temperature annealing temperature is 520–620°C, and the holding time for the low-temperature annealing is 10 s or 20 s.

[0009] Furthermore, the diameter of the diamond wire obtained from the first drawing is 2.30 mm.

[0010] Furthermore, the temperature of the first austenitizing heat treatment is 1020℃, and the holding time is 44s.

[0011] Furthermore, the diameter of the diamond wire obtained from the second drawing is 0.73 mm.

[0012] Furthermore, the temperature of the second austenitizing heat treatment is 1020℃, and the holding time is 26s.

[0013] Furthermore, the diameter of the diamond wire obtained from the third drawing is 0.46 mm.

[0014] Furthermore, the isothermal quenching conditions are all 90°C water-mixed quenching fluid.

[0015] Furthermore, the water-mixed quenching fluid contains a water-soluble quenching fluid of high molecular weight polymer with a volume percentage of 6-13%.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0017] The synergistic strengthening and toughening production process for diamond wire provided by this invention utilizes low-temperature annealing to eliminate structural stress, retain the drawn deformation structure, and achieve work hardening. This maintains strength while rapidly and effectively obtaining high plasticity, thus realizing the synergistic strengthening and toughening production of diamond wire. Diamond wire produced using this synergistic strengthening and toughening process exhibits a tensile strength of 1512–2049 MPa in five tensile tests, with a reduction of area of ​​38.1–60.7%.

[0018] The diamond wire produced through synergistic toughening ensures that it is not easily broken under high load and high speed, maintaining the continuity and stability of the cutting process and further improving the accuracy and quality of cutting. At the same time, the service life of the diamond wire is also extended, as it can deform under stress without easily breaking, maintaining good performance during long-term high-intensity use, reducing replacement frequency and lowering production costs.

[0019] Compared to existing low-temperature annealing processes, the annealing time of this invention is significantly shortened, thereby effectively shortening the entire production cycle. This not only improves production efficiency but also further reduces the production cost of synergistically toughened diamond wire. Attached Figure Description

The water-mixed quenching fluid contains a water-soluble quenching fluid of high molecular weight polymer with a volume percentage of 6-13%; the chemical composition of the diamond wire by weight percentage includes: C: 0.92%, Si: 0.17%, Mn: 0.32%, P: 0.0013%, S: 0.007%, Cr: 0.198%, Ni: 0.012%, with the remainder being Fe and unavoidable impurities.
