Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of rolling process, in particular to a flexible process rolling method for disc screw production. BACKGROUND
[0002] The flexible process rolling technology was proposed by Academician Wang Guodong of Northeastern University in 2006 and was again proposed in the August 2023 Academic Report on Threaded Steel Industry Development (flexible manufacturing technology is a new concept model and new development trend to realize future factory). In recent years, the flexible process rolling technology has begun to be valued by steel enterprises, and has been applied to production process control by a few large steel enterprises, and good results have been achieved.
[0003] When using the existing flexible process rolling method for production, the control of chemical composition internal control, opening rolling temperature, finishing rolling temperature and cooling speed is relatively rough, and the products rolled do not meet the expected requirements in terms of tensile strength, yield strength and toughness, etc. Therefore, the existing process needs to be improved. SUMMARY
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a flexible process rolling method for disc screw production, which solves the problem of rough process control of the existing process causing the produced products to be out of standard.
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] A flexible process rolling method for disc screw production, comprising the following steps: A, chemical composition internal control during electric arc furnace smelting; B, control of heating system and opening rolling temperature, the heating system adopts continuous casting billet heating, and the opening rolling temperature is controlled at 1000℃-930℃; C, control of the temperature of the rolling process; D, control of the finishing rolling temperature at 900℃±20℃; E, strengthen control of the cooling rate of the rolled steel, the initial temperature and the final temperature of the post-rolling rapid cooling, and the wire feeding temperature is controlled at 880℃-920℃; F, when the disc screw is cooled on the Stelmor conveyor, it is first rapidly cooled and then slowly cooled, and the cooling speed is 4℃ / s-7℃ / s, and after cooling, it is packed and stored for stacking.
[0007] In the present application, through the control of chemical composition, opening rolling temperature, temperature of rolling process, finishing rolling temperature and wire feeding temperature, the grain size is controlled after large deformation and rapid cooling in the rolling process, the grain size and organization precipitation in the steel are controlled, and the mechanical properties are stabilized, so as to realize the flexible control of the material organization performance, and the rolling chemical composition, mechanical properties and metallographic structure can all meet the higher standard requirements.
[0008] By adjusting the heating temperature to control the austenite grain size, the austenite grain is refined, the dynamic recrystallization process is completed through controlled rolling and controlled cooling, the fine-grain strengthening effect is achieved, the yield strength is improved, the Stelmor fan air volume (Stelmor model) is controlled to control the amount and uniformity of the organization precipitation, the high-quality product with stable mechanical properties is obtained, the reasonable stacking of the disc screw product is selected to control the temperature below the solidus and the long-time holding purpose, the rolling residual stress is reduced or eliminated, the residual atmosphere in a small part of the steel is removed, the process performance and toughness are improved, the purpose of stabilizing the yield strength and the ratio of strength to yield is achieved.
[0009] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the mass fraction of each component in the chemical composition in step A is as follows: C 0.16-0.25 parts; Si 0.4-0.6 parts; Mn 1-1.25 parts; P 0-0.07 parts; S 0-0.04 parts; Ceq 0.39-0.54 parts.
[0010] In view of the high content of residual elements (nitrogen, molybdenum, chromium, copper, nickel, etc.) after smelting products by the direct current electric arc furnace, when the residual elements are high, the addition amount of manganese alloy can be reduced, and carbon and silicon manganese alloy are added, without adding vanadium, titanium and niobium, thereby reducing the use amount of high-speed wire micro-alloy on the original basis, and realizing composite micro-alloying.
[0011] In combination with the high content of H and N in the finished product of the direct current electric arc furnace, by reasonably matching the chemical composition, controlling the heating and rolling process and stacking, the partial H content in the steel is reduced, the N content in the steel is fixed, the rolled disc screw has good weldability, good stability of yield strength and strength to yield ratio, and certain corrosion resistance on the surface, and no cracks in cold bending.
[0012] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the temperature control of the rolling process in step C is specifically performed when more than half of the rolling deformation of the disc screw micro-alloying is performed at ≤950 ℃.
[0013] The advantage is that the disc screw is deformed in the austenite unrecrystallized zone with sufficient deformation, and the austenite can be dynamically recrystallized through multi-pass cumulative plastic deformation.
[0014] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, in addition to controlling the heating temperature and the starting rolling temperature in the final rolling temperature in step D, the water amount between the water cooling box before the finishing mill and the finishing mill group is also applied to realize the control.
[0015] The purpose is to control the rolling temperature of the final rolling pass at the austenite to ferrite transformation temperature (and deformation-induced phase change), and the grain is coarse and the strength is low when the final rolling temperature is high.
[0016] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the cooling rate after rolling in step E requires a first stage to be high, and a second stage to be controlled according to the yield property.
[0017] To obtain the desired microstructure, the cooling rate of the rolled steel, the initial temperature of the rapid cooling after rolling and the final temperature of the rapid cooling must be controlled (to prevent grain coarsening).
[0018] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the cooling of the coiled coil on the Stelmor conveyor in step F is specifically adjusted by the air volume according to the spooling temperature, so as to reduce the coiling temperature, and the temperature is controlled to be less than 220 DEG C.
[0019] The mechanical properties and process properties meet the requirements of the national standard.
[0020] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the coiled coil is stacked for no more than 4 hours at <200 DEG C, and the deformation residual stress is eliminated after slow cooling.
[0021] The deformation residual stress is eliminated after slow cooling.
[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present application can achieve at least one of the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 1. In the present application, the grain size is controlled after large deformation and rapid cooling in the rolling process by controlling the composition, the opening rolling temperature, the temperature during rolling, the finish rolling temperature and the spooling temperature, the grain size and the microstructure in the steel are controlled, the mechanical properties are stabilized, and the flexible control of the material microstructure and properties is realized, so that the rolling chemical composition, the mechanical properties and the microstructure can all meet the high standard requirements.
[0024] 2. The residual element content (nitrogen, molybdenum, chromium, copper, nickel, etc.) is high after smelting the product by the direct current arc furnace, when the residual element content is high, the addition amount of manganese alloy can be reduced, carbon and silicon manganese alloy are added, vanadium, titanium and niobium are not added, the use amount of high-speed wire micro-alloy is reduced on the basis of the original, and composite micro-alloying can also be realized.
[0025] 3. The mechanical properties and process properties meet the requirements of the national standard.
[0026] 4. The deformation residual stress is eliminated after slow cooling. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
