Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of steel material preparation, and in particular to a method for preventing hot-rolled steel strip from flattening. Background Art

[0002] Carbon tool steel with a carbon content of more than 0.45% has the characteristics of high strength, high hardness, and excellent wear resistance. It is widely used in hardware knives, chains, automotive gaskets, sewing machine needles and other fields. Typical steel grades include 65Mn, C75S, SK85, etc. In order to obtain a good spheroidization rate and surface quality, there are special temperature requirements when producing this type of steel. The strip is prone to flattening after coiling, which seriously affects production efficiency and yield rate, and has become a problem that plagues the industry.

[0003] Studies have shown that the flat coil defect of medium and high carbon steel is mainly due to the phase change of the strip during or after coiling. The volume change of the phase change organization causes the interlayer displacement of the steel coil, resulting in coil collapse under the action of gravity. In order to improve the flat coil problem, technicians have made continuous efforts. The prior art proposes to control the cooling rate to improve the problem of hot-rolled flat coils. However, the cooling manifold capacity is effective, the range of cooling rate adjustment is limited, and the phase change point cannot be effectively controlled. At the same time, it is proposed to improve the problem of hot-rolled flat coils by controlling the convexity and wedge shape of the strip, and then matching the appropriate cooling method and coiling parameters. However, the adjustment of the coiling parameters increases the risk of strip narrowing. Therefore, how to develop a control method for hot-rolled flat coils has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0036] Figure 1 A schematic flow chart of a method for preventing hot-rolled steel strip from flattening provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides a method for preventing hot rolled steel strip from flattening, the method comprising:

[0038] S1. At a set final rolling outlet temperature, the rough-rolled sheet is subjected to finish rolling to obtain a hot-rolled strip;

[0039] The finishing process not only improves the shape and dimensional accuracy of the strip, but also provides favorable conditions for phase transformation in the subsequent cooling process by refining the austenite grains and homogenizing the structure, thereby helping to reduce the occurrence of flat coil defects.

[0040] In some embodiments, the set final rolling temperature is 820°C to 920°C.

[0041] The final rolling temperature of the finishing rolling is limited to 820℃~920℃, which can ensure that the strip has an appropriate austenite grain size before finishing rolling. Too high a final rolling temperature may cause the grains to be too coarse, while too low a temperature may cause the grains to be too fine, which is not conducive to obtaining ideal structural properties. Exemplarily, the final rolling temperature of the finishing rolling can be 820℃, 840℃, 860℃, 880℃, 900℃, 920℃, etc.

[0042] In some embodiments, the inlet temperature of the finish rolling is 1030°C to 1130°C.

[0043] Limiting the inlet temperature of the finishing rolling to 1030°C to 1130°C can ensure that the strip has sufficient plasticity and deformation capacity, which is conducive to obtaining a good rolling effect and surface quality. At the same time, the appropriate inlet temperature also helps to reduce energy consumption and wear during the rolling process, improve production efficiency and product quality. Exemplarily, the inlet temperature of the finishing rolling can be 1030°C, 1040°C, 1050°C, 1060°C, 1070°C, etc.

[0044] S2, conveying the hot-rolled steel strip to a cooling line having a front-stage concentrated cooling zone, an air cooling zone, and a fine-adjustment water cooling zone;

[0045] The front concentrated cooling zone is located on the output roller after the finishing mill and is the first stage of hot-rolled strip cooling. It uses laminar cooling and accurately controls the temperature of the strip at the midpoint (MT1) by adjusting the opening and closing of the cooling manifold and the amount of cooling water.

[0046] The air cooling zone is located after the front concentrated cooling zone and before the fine-tuning water cooling zone. Its main function is to allow the strip to cool naturally on the conveyor rollers, allowing the austenite to fully undergo phase transformation.

[0047] The fine-tuning water cooling zone is located after the air cooling zone and is the final stage of hot-rolled strip cooling. Its main function is to cool the strip to the set final cooling temperature (CT) by accurately controlling the cooling water volume and temperature to improve its microstructure, properties and surface quality.

[0048] The front concentrated cooling zone, air cooling zone and fine-tuning water cooling zone together constitute the cooling process path of hot-rolled strip. By precisely controlling the cooling method and temperature of each zone, the organizational structure, mechanical properties and surface quality of the strip can be optimized, thereby reducing the occurrence of defects such as flat coils. This cooling process path ensures that the organizational properties meet the requirements, enables the strip to undergo phase change in advance before coiling, reduces interlayer displacement after coiling, and significantly improves the flat coil problem.

[0049] S3, in the front concentrated cooling zone, the hot rolled steel strip is subjected to front concentrated cooling, and the midpoint temperature of the cooling line is controlled to be a set midpoint temperature to control the grain size of the steel strip; the set midpoint temperature is greater than the bainite starting phase transformation temperature;

[0050] In the front concentrated cooling zone, the hot rolled strip is cooled quickly to control its temperature and grain size. Setting the midpoint temperature (MT1) of the cooling line above the bainite start transformation temperature (BS) can avoid premature bainite or martensite transformation of the strip, thereby reducing the generation of brittle structure.

[0051] In some embodiments, the midpoint temperature of the cooling line is the temperature of the hot-rolled strip at the middle temperature measurement point in the length direction of the cooling line, and the set midpoint temperature satisfies the following relationship:

[0052] MT1=BS+(10~50)℃

[0053] Wherein, MT1 represents the set midpoint temperature, and BS represents the bainite starting phase transformation temperature.

[0054] Controlling the midpoint temperature to be 10 to 50°C higher than the bainite start phase transformation temperature (BS) can prevent the strip from undergoing bainite or martensite transformation prematurely during water cooling, which usually leads to the formation of brittle structures. Keeping the midpoint temperature within this range is conducive to the transformation of austenite to more favorable structures such as ferrite and pearlite during subsequent air cooling, thereby improving the organizational properties and mechanical properties of the strip. At the same time, the temperature is as low as possible to make the subsequent phase transformation structure finer and ensure the spheroidization rate after cold rolling annealing. Exemplarily, MT1 can be BS+10°C, BS+20°C, BS+30°C, BS+40°C, BS+50°C, etc.

[0055] S4, in the air cooling zone, air cooling the hot rolled steel strip after the concentrated cooling in the previous stage to perform phase transformation at a lower cooling rate;

[0056] In the air cooling zone, air cooling is performed on the conveyor rollers to allow the strip to fully undergo phase change. The air cooling process helps to balance the temperature and structure differences inside the strip, reduce the volume expansion differences caused by uneven phase change, and thus reduce the risk of flat coils.

[0057] In some embodiments, the final cooling temperature of the air cooling is 550°C to 650°C.

[0058] The final cooling temperature of air cooling is limited to 550℃~650℃, which is conducive to the transformation of austenite into a more favorable structure, while avoiding the adverse effects of too high or too low temperature on the structure performance. Temperature control during air cooling also helps to reduce stress concentration and deformation inside the strip, thereby improving the quality and stability of the product. Exemplarily, the final cooling temperature of air cooling can be 550℃, 570℃, 590℃, 600℃, 620℃, 640℃, 650℃, etc.

[0059] S5, in the fine-adjustment section water cooling zone, subjecting the hot-rolled steel strip after air cooling to fine-adjustment section water cooling, and controlling the final cooling temperature of the fine-adjustment section water cooling to the set final cooling temperature, so as to improve the microstructure and properties of the hot-rolled steel strip; and

[0060] In the water cooling area of ​​the fine adjustment section, the hot rolled strip after air cooling is cooled to the set final cooling temperature (CT) by accurately controlling the water volume of the cooling manifold. This step not only further improves the organizational properties of the strip, but also avoids deformation and flat coiling caused by uneven temperature through precise temperature control.

[0061] In some embodiments, the final cooling temperature is set to be 500°C to 650°C.

[0062] The final cooling temperature of the water cooling zone of the fine-tuning section is limited to 500℃~650℃, which can ensure that the strip obtains the ideal structure and performance, such as good strength, toughness and plasticity. At the same time, the formability and processing performance of the strip can be further improved, and the occurrence of defects such as flat coils can be reduced. Exemplarily, the final cooling temperature of the water cooling zone of the fine-tuning section is 500℃, 550℃, 570℃, 590℃, 600℃, 620℃, 640℃, 650℃, etc.

[0063] In some implementations, the cooling manifold water volume of the fine-adjustment section water cooling is determined according to the final cooling temperature of the air cooling, the set final cooling temperature of the fine-adjustment section water cooling, and the latent heat of phase change.

[0064] The control of the water volume in the cooling manifold is determined based on the strip temperature after air cooling (MT2) and the required final cooling temperature (CT). By accurately controlling the water volume, it is possible to ensure that the strip obtains an ideal cooling effect during the water cooling process in the fine-tuning section, thereby further improving the structural properties and mechanical properties of the strip. At the same time, the control of the water volume also needs to consider the influence of the latent heat of phase change to ensure that the strip can undergo a uniform and stable phase change during the cooling process.

[0065] S6, coiling the hot-rolled steel strip after water cooling in the fine-adjusting section to obtain a hot-rolled coil.

[0066] In some embodiments, the method for preparing the rough rolled plate comprises:

[0067] The slab with a set chemical composition is heated and roughly rolled to obtain the rough-rolled plate.

[0068] In some embodiments, the rough rolling adopts a 3+3 mode.

[0069] In some embodiments, the heating time is 140 min to 300 min, and the tapping temperature is 1160°C to 1260°C.

[0070] In summary, the method for preventing hot rolled steel strip from flattening provided in the embodiment of the present application has the following advantages:

[0071] (1) Optimization of finishing rolling process: By setting reasonable final rolling temperature and inlet temperature (final rolling temperature is 820℃~920℃, inlet temperature is 1030℃~1130℃), the strip is ensured to have appropriate austenite grain size and deformation capacity during the finishing rolling process. The finishing rolling process not only improves the shape and dimensional accuracy of the strip, but also provides favorable conditions for phase transformation in the subsequent cooling process by refining the austenite grains and homogenizing the structure, which helps to reduce the occurrence of flat coil defects.

[0072] (2) Precise control of cooling process: The front concentrated cooling zone, air cooling zone and fine-tuning water cooling zone together constitute the cooling process path of the hot-rolled strip. By precisely controlling the cooling method and temperature of each zone, the microstructure and mechanical properties of the strip are optimized. In the front concentrated cooling zone, by rapidly cooling and controlling the midpoint temperature to be 10 to 50°C higher than the bainite phase transformation temperature, the premature brittle phase transformation of the strip is avoided and the formation of brittle phase structure is reduced. The air cooling zone allows the austenite to fully transform, balances the temperature and microstructure differences inside the strip, and reduces the risk of flat coiling. The fine-tuning water cooling zone cools the strip to the set final cooling temperature (500°C to 650°C) by precisely controlling the cooling water volume and temperature, further improving the microstructure and mechanical properties of the strip.

[0073] (3) Reducing flat coil defects: This method significantly reduces the interlayer displacement of hot-rolled strip during coiling by optimizing the finishing process and accurately controlling the cooling process, thereby reducing the incidence of flat coil defects. Temperature control during the cooling process helps reduce stress concentration and deformation inside the strip, improving product quality and stability.

[0074] (4) Improve production efficiency and product quality: By precisely controlling various process parameters and conditions, this method ensures that the hot-rolled strip undergoes phase transformation in advance before coiling, reducing deformation and defects during subsequent processing, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality. At the same time, this method also takes into account the influence of latent heat of phase transformation, ensuring that the strip undergoes phase transformation evenly and stably during the cooling process, further improving product stability and reliability.

[0075] (5) Flexibility and applicability: This method is not only applicable to the production of medium and high carbon steel products, but also can adjust process parameters according to specific needs to adapt to the production of slabs with different chemical compositions and specifications. At the same time, by adjusting parameters such as rough rolling mode, heating time and steel tapping temperature, the production process and product quality can be further optimized.

[0076] The present application will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are intended only to illustrate the present application and are not intended to limit the scope of the present application.
