[0013] The bottom cutting amount of the steel ingot is ≥200mm, the upper cutting amount of the steel ingot is ≥150mm, and the utilization rate of the steel ingot is ≥70%

[0014] Specifically, the stepwise heating curve in S1 is as follows:

[0015] First stage: heating the steel ingot to a temperature T1 and keeping it for a time h1, wherein T1 is the temperature of the steel ingot when it is cast, and h1 is 30-60min per 100mm of the diameter of the steel ingot;

[0016] Second stage: heating the steel ingot to a temperature T2 and keeping it for a time h2, wherein T2 is the complete austenite transformation temperature, ranging from 780 to 880℃, and h2 is 30-60min per 100mm of the diameter of the steel ingot, and the heating rate is ≤50℃ / h;

[0018] Specifically, the total forging ratio of the forging method is ≥4.5, the initial forging temperature is 1200-1250℃, and the final forging temperature of each heating is ≥850℃.

[0019] Specifically, the initial forging temperature T4 and T3 satisfy: T4 = T3-30℃.

[0020] Further, if the fourth heating of step S4 fails to complete the finished product, the fifth heating of step S5 is performed:

[0021] After the steel ingot is heated at the initial forging temperature T5 for a certain time, the holding time is determined according to 30-60min per 100mm of the diameter of the rolled neck, and the drawing operation is continued using the upper anvil and the lower V anvil until the finished product is obtained;

[0022] The initial forging temperature T5 and T4 satisfy: T5=T4-30 DEG C.

[0024] Specifically, the specific operation of the step S4 is: the roll neck is pinched out, and the finished product is elongated, and the excess length is gas cut from the middle to the two ends to the size of each step.

[0025] The application also provides a large aluminum plate rolling mill working roll, which is made by the forging method, has a compact core structure, fully improved as-cast defects, high surface purity, meets the SN322-11 flaw detection standard, uniform structure, hardness uniformity of ±1HSD, increased total amount of carbide in the structure, changed carbide type, improved hardenability, hardness of ≥80HSD, and improved wear resistance and peeling resistance of the product.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the application can achieve at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0027] 1. The application provides a forging method special for a large aluminum plate rolling mill working roll, which has a good effect on the control of surface cracks of the steel ingot.

[0028] The steel ingot is heated by a stepwise heating curve after coming out of the ingot, so as to prevent cracks on the surface and the core of the steel ingot due to organizational stress and temperature stress; in particular, the special stepwise heating curve recommended by the application has better effect.

[0029] After the first heating of the steel ingot, a pre-elongation process is set, which is to open the uneven and deep slag groove on the surface of the electroslag ingot through pre-elongation, so as to avoid folding of the slag groove during the second upsetting, thereby causing folding damage. More preferably, the pre-elongation breaks the as-cast structure on the surface of the steel ingot through small deformation, reduces the generation of upsetting cracks, and also prepares the structure for subsequent high-temperature diffusion.

[0030] Further, the final forging temperature of each fire is strictly controlled to be greater than or equal to 850 DEG C, the forging is stopped before the surface precipitates carbide, and the network carbide is avoided to cause the forging to crack.

[0031] 2、The forging method provided by the application can well compact the core defects of the steel ingot, refine the grains, and improve the toughness and strength of the product. The pre-drawing fire in S1 is set to have a drawing ratio of greater than or equal to 1.5, the total forging ratio is increased, and the grains are finer. Multi-direction upsetting and drawing can make the forging structure more uniform and more dense. Meanwhile, according to the large upsetting ratio and KD drawing ratio provided by the application, the core defects of the steel ingot can be compacted, and the toughness and strength can be improved. The heating before forging in the upsetting fire and the KD compacting fire in the forging method is increased in the holding time, and the purpose is to realize high-temperature diffusion, reduce element segregation, and uniform structure, so as to improve the toughness and strength of the product. The initial forging temperature in the fourth fire and the fifth fire is reduced, and the purpose is to avoid no-forging ratio heating, excessive grain growth, and the occurrence of grass-like wave problems in the flaw detection.

[0032] 3、The aluminum plate mill work roll prepared by the forging method provided by the application has high purity, uniform structure, high hardness, good wear resistance, and improved anti-peeling property. The selected high-carbon high-molybdenum Cr5 material has slightly higher C and Mo content than the traditional Cr5 material, the total amount of carbides in the structure is increased, the type of carbides is changed, the hardness is higher, and the wear resistance is better. Multi-direction upsetting and drawing can make the forging structure more uniform, and the uniformity of the surface hardness of the product is better. The selected electroslag refining steel ingot has pure product quality, good anti-peeling property, and better use effect.

[0033] In the application, the above technical solutions can be combined with each other to realize more preferred combination solutions. Other features and advantages of the application will be described in the subsequent specification, and some advantages will become apparent from the specification or be understood by implementing the application.

[0042] The preferred embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings, which form a part of this application, and together with the description, illustrate the principles of the application, but are not intended to limit the scope of the application.

[0043] The traditional Cr5 aluminum plate rolling mill work roll has the prominent quality problems of impure working layer, poor accident resistance and unstable use performance. The high-carbon high-molybdenum Cr5 material selected in the application has slightly increased C and Mo contents compared with the traditional Cr5 material, the total amount of carbides in the structure is increased, the type of carbides is changed, the hardenability is improved, and the wear resistance and spalling resistance of the product are improved.

[0044] However, this kind of material also has its inherent defects. Due to the increase of C and Mo contents of the material, when the large aluminum plate rolling mill work roll of this kind of material is prepared by using the traditional forging process, the original defects of the ingot at the final core of solidification are large, and the high C content is easy to cause surface cracking during forging.

[0045] Based on the above technical problems, the forging method provided by the application effectively reduces the surface cracking problem, and the serious defects in the core are fully improved, and the comprehensive performance of the final product is superior.

[0046] The application provides a forging method of a large aluminum plate rolling mill work roll, and the forging method specifically comprises the following steps:

[0047] S1 first fire: the ingot is heat treated by using a stepwise heating curve, after heat treatment, the ingot is discharged by using an upper and lower V-shaped anvil KD for pre-drawing, and the drawing ratio is greater than or equal to 1.5; the bottom of the ingot is pressed by a jaw, the excess jaw scrap is cut by using a gas cutting device, and the upper scrap of the ingot is cut by using the gas cutting device;

[0048] The special requirement of this step is that the pre-drawing ratio is greater than or equal to 1.5, which cannot be too small or too large. The purpose of setting the pre-drawing is to open the uneven and deep slag groove on the surface of the electroslag ingot through pre-drawing, so as to avoid the folding of the slag groove during the second upsetting, thereby causing the folding damage. At the same time, the pre-drawing can break the cast structure on the surface of the ingot through a certain deformation, thereby reducing the generation of the upsetting crack. On the other hand, the pre-drawing can shorten the interdendritic distance and improve the subsequent high-temperature diffusion effect. If the pre-drawing ratio is too small, the cast dendrite changes very limitedly with the deformation, the pre-deformation has very small influence on the high-temperature diffusion homogenization process, and the pre-deformation loses the effect and significance. If the pre-drawing ratio is too large, the material of the dendrite arm and the interdendritic material extends along the forging direction, causing the banded segregation, and the subsequent high-temperature diffusion is difficult to eliminate the segregation.

[0049] S2 second fire: after the ingot is heated at the initial forging temperature T3 for a certain time, the ingot is taken out of the furnace, the upsetting disc and the spherical upsetting cover plate are used to upset the ingot to the process required height at the upsetting ratio of 1.5-2.5, and the holding time is determined according to 2-4 h per 100 mm of the diameter of the ingot after the first fire KD;

[0050] After the first step of pre-drawing, the cast structure of the ingot is improved to a certain extent, and the dendritic structure becomes more compact. The purpose of extending the holding time at the initial forging temperature in this step is to achieve the high-temperature diffusion homogenization effect through long-time high-temperature holding, thereby reducing the interdendritic element micro-segregation and improving the forging performance. The longer the high-temperature diffusion time is, the better the diffusion effect is. However, after the diffusion reaches a certain degree, the element concentration gradient gradually decreases. At this time, increasing the diffusion time has a slow homogenization effect, which wastes energy, and even causes the grain to become coarse. Therefore, the holding time cannot be insufficient or too long.

[0051] S3 third fire: after the ingot is heated at the initial forging temperature T3 for a certain time, the ingot is taken out of the furnace, the upper and lower V-shaped anvil is used to draw the ingot to the process required diameter at the KD drawing ratio of 2.0-2.5, and the holding time is determined according to 2-4 h per 100 mm of the diameter of the ingot after the second fire KD;

[0052] S4 fourth fire: after the ingot is heated at the initial forging temperature T4 for a certain time, the holding time is determined according to 30-60 min per 100 mm of the diameter of the ingot after the third fire KD; the ingot is taken out of the furnace, the upper flat anvil and the lower V-shaped anvil are used to draw the ingot to the diameter of the blank drawing, the roll necks are cut out at both ends of the blank water head according to the process required length, and the finished product is drawn out;

[0053] The special design of this step is that the remaining forging deformation is small, generally 1.0-1.5. In order to avoid the small deformation leading to the coarse grain in the center of the forging, affecting the center flaw detection quality and performance, the initial forging temperature is reduced and the holding time is shortened.

[0054] T3 is in the range of 1200-1250℃, and T4 is less than T3.

[0055] Specifically, the steel ingot is a high-carbon high-molybdenum Cr5 material, and the specific composition of the material is as follows in terms of mass percentage: C 0.3-0.8%, Si 0.4-0.8%, Mn 0.5-0.8%, P and S ≤0.02%, Cr 4.5-5.5%, Ni ≤0.60, Mo 0.4-0.8%, and V 0.05-0.25%.

[0056] Further, the high-carbon high-molybdenum Cr5 material has slightly increased C and Mo contents compared with the traditional Cr5 material, the total amount of carbides in the structure is increased, the type of carbides is changed, the hardenability is increased, and the wear resistance and spalling resistance of the product are increased. Due to the increased C and Mo contents of the material, the original defects in the center of the steel ingot during solidification are increased, and the high C content is prone to cause surface cracking during forging. The forging method provided by the application effectively reduces the surface cracking problem and fully improves the serious defects in the center, and the comprehensive performance of the final product is superior.

[0057] Specifically, the specific parameters of the pre-drawing in step S1 are as follows: the target size is determined according to a drawing ratio ≥1.5, and the pass reduction amount is 20% of the height of the blank;

[0058] The cutting amount of the bottom of the steel ingot is ≥200mm, the cutting amount of the upper part of the steel ingot is ≥150mm, and the utilization rate of the steel ingot is ≥70%. The forging method uses an electroslag ingot, and compared with the traditional top-charging ingot, the utilization rate of the electroslag ingot is increased, and material waste is reduced.

[0059] Specifically, the step S1 is a step of heating the steel ingot according to a step-by-step heating curve.

[0060] The first stage is to heat the steel ingot to a temperature T1 and keep it for a period of time h1, wherein T1 is in the range of the temperature of the steel ingot when it is cast, and h1 is kept for 30-60min per 100mm of the diameter of the steel ingot;

[0061] The second stage is to heat the steel ingot to a temperature T2 and keep it for a period of time h2, wherein T2 is the complete transformation temperature of austenite, in the range of 780-880℃, and h2 is kept for 30-60min per 100mm of the size of the steel ingot, and the heating rate is ≤50℃ / h;

[0062] The third stage is to heat the steel ingot to a temperature T3 and keep it for a period of time h3, wherein T3 is the initial forging temperature, in the range of 1200-1250℃, and h3 is kept for 30-60min per 100mm of the diameter of the steel ingot. The heating rate is determined according to the power of the forging heating furnace, and no limitation is required.

[0063] Specifically, a stepped heating curve is set, T1 section realizes temperature uniformity, T2 section realizes complete austenite transformation, and T3 section is heated to the initial forging temperature. The holding time of each section can be determined according to the diameter to achieve heating penetration. The heating rate is controlled to avoid tensile stress of the inner and outer layers of the material due to temperature stress and organizational stress, thereby avoiding cracks.

[0064] Specifically, the total forging ratio of the forging method is greater than or equal to 4.5, the initial forging temperature is 1200-1250 DEG C, and the final forging temperature of each heating is greater than or equal to 850 DEG C. In actual implementation, due to the existence of certain errors in the temperature control of industrial equipment, a fluctuation space of plus or minus 10 DEG C is allowed. It is worth noting that the final forging temperature is controlled above 850 DEG C as much as possible. If the actual final forging is lower than 850 DEG C due to temperature fluctuation, it may cause obvious structural defects.

[0065] Specifically, the initial forging temperature T4 and T3 satisfy: T4=T3-30 DEG C. Since the remaining forging deformation is small, generally 1.0-1.5, in order to avoid the small deformation leading to the coarse grains in the center of the forging, affecting the center flaw detection quality and performance, the initial forging temperature is reduced, and the holding time is shortened.

[0066] Specifically, if the fourth heating of the step S4 fails to complete the finished product, the fifth heating of the step S5 is performed.

[0067] After the ingot is heated at the initial forging temperature T5 for a certain time, the holding time is determined according to the diameter of the rolled neck, that is, 30-60 min per 100 mm of the diameter of the rolled neck, and the upper anvil and the lower V anvil are used to continue the lengthening operation until the finished product is obtained. The initial forging temperature T5 and T4 satisfy: T5=T4-30 DEG C. Here, since the remaining forging deformation is further reduced, the initial forging temperature is further reduced.

[0068] Specifically, the specific operation of the step S3 is as follows: after the ingot is rolled out, the anvil is turned over by 90 DEG after one pass is completed, and the next pass is pressed, and the total pass is 8-12 passes.

[0069] Specifically, the specific operation of the step S4 for cutting out the rolled neck and lengthening the finished product is as follows: the small circles at both ends are lengthened to the size of each step in sequence from the middle to both ends, the excess length is cut by gas cutting, and the finished product is obtained.

[0070] The application also provides a large aluminum plate rolling mill work roll, which is prepared by the forging method, has dense center structure, fully improved as-cast defects, high surface purity, satisfies the SN322-11 flaw detection standard, uniform structure, hardness uniformity of ±1HSD, increased total amount of carbides in the structure, changed carbide type, improved hardenability, structure of tempered martensite + fine-grained carbide, hardness of ≥80HSD, and improved wear resistance and anti-peeling property of the product.
