[0002] Super Duplex Stainless Steel (SDSS) is a high-performance stainless steel alloy with a microstructure of austenite and ferrite phases. This material combines the advantages of both, possessing excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance, and is widely used in harsh industrial environments. The yield strength of super duplex stainless steel is more than twice that of ordinary stainless steel, usually reaching above 750 MPa, and it has extremely strong resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) caused by chlorides, and is especially suitable for use in marine environments and the chemical industry. Through appropriate welding processes, super duplex stainless steel can maintain the duplex microstructure in the weld area, ensuring the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the welded joint. Compared with conventional stainless steel, super duplex stainless steel has a lower coefficient of thermal expansion, reducing stress accumulation during thermal cycling.

[0003] A thick-walled super duplex stainless steel capillary tube is a type of tubing that combines the excellent properties of super duplex stainless steel with the characteristics of a small diameter and high precision of a capillary tube, and has unique advantages in industrial applications. However, due to the characteristics of the capillary tube, the processing of thick-walled super duplex stainless steel capillary tubes is difficult, and their service life is significantly reduced in high-temperature environments underground containing oxygen, hydrogen sulfide, and various corrosive media, restricting the application of thick-walled super duplex stainless steel capillary tubes.

[0025] Next, in combination with the embodiments of the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0026] The present invention provides a preparation process for a thick-walled super duplex stainless steel capillary, including the following steps:

[0027] The steel strip is welded, straightened and formed, and then made into a pipe by composite laser welding. The obtained pipe is annealed and drawn to obtain a thick-walled super duplex stainless steel capillary tube;

[0028] The composite laser welding is carried out by using composite laser, that is, the fiber laser is used as the main band laser, the semiconductor laser is used as the secondary band laser, and the two lasers are combined together through the laser output head for welding. In the present invention, the axes of the two lasers are made to coincide or be juxtaposed in space through laser coupling. The main band fiber laser is used for deep penetration welding to ensure full and high-quality forming inside and outside. The secondary band semiconductor laser has the function of preheating and slow cooling, and moderately conducts heat conduction welding through the composite laser to improve the weld stability, enhance the weld toughness, improve the weld forming state, and reduce the generation of internal spatter.

[0029] The steel strip in the present invention is a super duplex stainless steel strip, and the chemical composition of the steel strip is as follows in mass percentage: C 0.03%, Mn 1.2%, P 0.035%, S 0.02%, Si 0.8%, Ni 6.0 - 8.0%, Cr 24.0 - 26.0%, Mo 3.0 - 5.0%, N 0.24 - 0.32%, Cu 0.5%, and the balance is Fe.

[0030] The super duplex stainless steel strip used in the present invention has excellent corrosion resistance, especially shows good corrosion resistance in an environment containing chloride ions or other corrosive media, and has strong tensile strength, fatigue resistance and stability, and is not prone to cracking or deformation. Therefore, the present invention selects super duplex stainless steel to prepare the capillary tube, so that it can operate stably for a long time in a relatively harsh environment and extend the service life of the product. At the same time, the super duplex stainless steel strip has good weldability, is suitable for the composite laser process adopted in the present invention, can realize high-quality weld forming, reduce the occurrence of welding defects, and improve the uniformity and strength of the weld. The excellent processing performance of the super duplex stainless steel strip also enables the pipe to show good stability in the processes of forming, welding, annealing and drawing, reduces the processing difficulty and material loss, and improves the production efficiency and product qualification rate. It can be seen that by selecting the super duplex stainless steel strip as the raw material to prepare the thick-walled super duplex stainless steel capillary tube, the present invention can ensure that the thick-walled super duplex stainless steel capillary tube has high performance and high reliability on the basis of taking into account the corrosion resistance, mechanical properties, processability and welding quality of the product, so as to meet the strict requirements of various application scenarios.

[0031] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, before the steel strip is welded, it further includes strip feeding and steel strip butt joint; the strip feeding refers to storing and transporting the steel strip through a strip feeding reel; the steel strip butt joint refers to cutting the steel strip evenly with a hook knife (using a foot switch) and aligning it.

[0032] The steel strip welding method of the present invention is as follows: Clamp the protective plate with a clamp, wipe the welding bead and the affected area clean with alcohol, set the welding machine current, the electrode spacing is 2 mm, the motor speed is 15 m / min, align the stainless steel welding wire with the weld, and align the welding needle with the weld using the welding torch regulating valve; After welding is completed, release the argon arc welding switch, then return to the starting point, release the clamp, check whether both sides are qualified, and repair and grind the weld with a hand grinding wheel after qualification to ensure that the weld thickness tolerance is <0.06 mm and there is no negative tolerance.

[0033] Gas tungsten arc welding (TIG welding) is a non-consumable electrode inert gas shielded arc welding technology. TIG welding uses a tungsten electrode to form a high-temperature arc through current discharge. The arc does not contact the material to be welded, but is protected by an inert gas, usually argon, to prevent oxygen, nitrogen, etc. from reacting with the arc.

[0034] The present invention uses TIG welding to weld the steel strip. The heat input is controllable, avoiding overheating or burn-through problems of thin-walled steel strips, which is beneficial to the uniformity and stability of the steel strip in subsequent forming and welding processes, ensuring the dimensional tolerance and weld uniformity of the steel strip butt joint. TIG welding reduces weld defects and stress concentration phenomena, laying a good process foundation for subsequent pipe forming, composite laser welding and drawing processes, and reducing the finished product rejection rate. After welding, by grinding the weld, the flatness of the butt joint and the weld thickness tolerance can be maintained, ensuring a smooth transition between the weld and the base material without negative tolerance. Generally speaking, in the preparation process of the thick-walled super duplex stainless steel capillary tube of the present invention, the steel strip butt joint is a key process, and the butt joint quality directly affects subsequent composite laser welding and pipe performance. TIG welding, with its characteristics of high quality, high precision and low defect rate, has become the key process to ensure the efficient operation of the entire production chain of the present invention and the performance of the final product meeting the standards.

[0035] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, after the steel strip is welded, the steel strip is inspected, and the inspection method is as follows: The weld seam is inspected by X-ray flaw detection, and the appearance of the steel strip is inspected to ensure that there are no defects such as burrs, dents, delamination, cracks, etc. on the surface of the steel strip. If there are repairable defects such as burrs and dents on the surface of the steel strip, the surface of the steel strip can be made flat by grinding. The weld quality of the present invention directly affects the strength and integrity of the butt joint of the steel strip, and further affects the processing of subsequent pipes. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that there are no defects such as cracks, lack of fusion, porosity, slag inclusions, etc. during the welding process in the present invention, so as to avoid fractures, deformations or other failure phenomena in subsequent processing, which seriously affect the quality and safety of the finished product. Surface defects will cause stress concentration during the pipe processing, and even affect the mechanical properties, airtightness and appearance quality of the pipe. In addition, burrs and impurities will also damage the equipment and tools, affecting production efficiency and cost. Therefore, it is necessary to check whether there are defects such as burrs, dents, delamination or cracks on the surface of the steel strip in the present invention to ensure that the surface is flat and smooth, providing a qualified material basis for subsequent forming, welding and drawing processes. The X-ray flaw detection of the weld seam and the appearance inspection of the steel strip can detect and repair salvageable defects at an early stage, prevent unqualified steel strips from entering subsequent processes such as welding, forming and drawing, reduce resource waste and subsequent rework costs, and ensure that the welding and steel strip quality meet relevant standards (such as ASTM A789). It can be seen that the inspection after the steel strip is welded is an important link to ensure the quality of the thick-walled super duplex stainless steel capillary of the present invention. Through the inspection, some welding defects can be detected and repaired in time, ensuring the surface quality, and thus directly affecting the comprehensive quality of the product.

[0036] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the steel strip is cleaned before the forming process, specifically: the straightened steel strip is supplied by a tape feeding device and cleaned by an ultrasonic cleaning instrument to remove impurities on the surface.

[0037] The forming method of the present invention is as follows: The steel strip is passed through a roll pressing device to generate preliminary deformation to facilitate the formation of the shape of the control tube, and then the steel strip is passed through a tube forming device for forming. The extrusion pressure value of the roll pressing device is 105 Mpa.

[0038] The composite laser welding method of the present invention is as follows: adjust the water temperature of the chiller to 22°C to 28°C, fix the beam axis angle of the laser welder at 90°, the tilt angle <16°, the distance from the lower edge of the lens to the welding surface is 195 mm, and perform welding using composite laser in a protective atmosphere. After welding is completed, turn on the grinding machine to grind the longitudinal weld until the weld bead surface is smooth and free of welding defects, ensuring the formation of the longitudinal weld of super duplex stainless steel and avoiding the occurrence of defects. In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the protective gas is argon with a purity of 99.99%. Among them, the flow rate of the protective gas in the protective sleeve is 5 - 10 L / min, the flow rate of the inner protective gas is 2.5 - 8 L / min, and the flow rate of the outer protective gas is 5 - 10 L / min. In other specific embodiments of the present invention, during the composite laser welding process, the power of the fiber laser is 1300 - 1400 W, the power of the semiconductor laser is 800 - 900 W, and the welding speed is 2.3 - 3.3 m / min.

[0039] The present invention performs keyhole welding through fiber laser to ensure full formation of the internal reinforcement height. Utilize the preheating and slow cooling effect of semiconductor laser combined with moderate heat conduction welding to improve the weld stability, enhance the weld toughness, improve the weld formation state, and reduce the generation of internal spatter. The present invention makes the properties of the weld area match those of the super duplex stainless steel strip through specific welding techniques, ensuring that the weld meets the performance requirements of high strength and high corrosion resistance, and avoiding structural failure caused by welding defects.

[0040] The annealing of the present invention is bright annealing, which is carried out in a protective gas atmosphere. The temperature of the bright annealing is 1100°C, the running speed is 2.5 m / min, the holding time is 7.2 min, the cooling method is rapid cooling, the cooling speed is 3.6 m / min, and the temperature after cooling is room temperature. In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the protective atmosphere is an argon atmosphere and ammonia decomposition gas. The present invention eliminates the internal stress generated during processes such as welding and forming by heating the material to a specific temperature and then cooling it during bright annealing, improves the grain structure of the material, adjusts the grain size, enables it to have better corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, and avoids deformation or cracking of the material during subsequent processing, which is beneficial for subsequent hot drawing treatment and ensures the weld quality. Ammonia in the furnace cavity decomposes into hydrogen and nitrogen, and these gases can be used as protective gases to prevent oxidation and decarburization of the steel during heating and cooling.

[0041] The temperature of the hot drawing treatment of the present invention is 1100°C, the running speed is 2.5 m / min, and the drawing process is 14 - 12 - solution treatment - 9.53 - solution treatment, and the pipe passes through the annealing furnace twice. Hot drawing can ensure that the shape, size, and wall thickness of each pipe are consistent, meet different technical and application requirements, and improve the overall mechanical properties of the pipe through plastic deformation. The multiple solution treatments and annealing during hot drawing can further improve the comprehensive performance of the pipe.

[0042] The annealing and drawing of the present invention are carried out simultaneously, so the solution parameters are the bright annealing parameters.

[0043] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, before annealing and after hot drawing, an ET eddy current flaw detection device is used to detect whether there are unacceptable defects to ensure that there are no pores in the pipe after welding and forming operations. Defects with a maximum depth and width of ≥ 0.004 inches (0.100 mm) are unacceptable defects. Eddy current flaw detection is used to detect defects such as pores, cracks, and inclusions inside and on the surface of the pipe to ensure that these defects are discovered and repaired in a timely manner, guarantee the structural integrity of the pipe, and affect the service life and performance of the pipe. Moreover, eddy current flaw detection before annealing and after hot drawing can detect defects in the pipe at an early stage and reduce rework and scrapping caused by pipe quality problems.

[0044] In some preferred embodiments of the present invention, after the pipe is drawn, it also includes steps of marking, length counting, coiling, and inspection. Among them, marking refers to laser marking the outer surface of the pipe through a marking machine; length counting refers to supervising and controlling the production length and speed through a length counter; coiling refers to adjusting the wire arranging device to make the pipeline evenly arranged, and guiding the pipe to wind around the finished pipe through a tractor; inspection refers to detecting the performance indicators of the pipe to determine whether they meet the product requirements. The purpose of the present invention to meet the standards is to clarify the batch numbers and necessary basic parameters of different batches of products, including but not limited to: manufacturer, production order number, material, specification, product standard, manufacturing process, detection method, production date, batch code, etc. For example: (2507 material) φ3 / 8in * 0.065in: SHINDA + production order number + material + specification (φ3 / 8in * 0.065in) + product standard (ASTM A789) + WELDED + NDE + production date + BCG1904. The product detection standard of the present invention generally adopts ASTM A789.
