Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of refractory maintenance in iron and steel metallurgy, and particularly relates to a method for spraying and laying a high-efficiency tundish daubing material. Background Art
[0002] The spraying of refractory materials for continuous casting tundishes is a key process in continuous casting production, directly affecting the service life of tundishes, the purity of molten steel, and production costs.
[0003] Generally, two types of refractory materials, dry materials and daubing materials, are used for continuous casting tundishes. Due to defects such as low laying efficiency and high labor intensity of daubing materials, they have gradually been replaced by dry materials. However, because daubing materials have a lower cost and lower requirements for carbon content such as ultra-low carbon, there is still a large volume of application for daubing materials in tundish refractory materials. Currently, the service life of daubing materials is long, the spraying efficiency is low, and the labor intensity is high. Therefore, a method for spraying and laying a high-efficiency tundish daubing material is designed to solve the problems of low laying efficiency and high labor intensity of existing daubing materials. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Aiming at the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for spraying and laying a high-efficiency tundish daubing material.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problems is: a method for spraying and laying a high-efficiency tundish daubing material, comprising the following steps:
[0006] 1) Adjust the water mixing ratio of the daubing material and fully stir it;
[0007] 2) Use a mechanical transmission method to continuously convey the stirred daubing material into a high-pressure hose;
[0008] 3) Set a co-directional compressed air gas source pipeline at the outlet of the high-pressure hose, and evenly blow the daubing material slurry flowing out of the outlet of the high-pressure hose onto the inner lining of the tundish and attach it to the permanent layer of the tundish;
[0009] 4) Control the temperature of the permanent layer of the tundish at 160 - 240 °C before spraying the daubing material, so that the water can be quickly evaporated after spraying the daubing material;
[0010] 5) Use a layer-by-layer spraying method, and spray the next layer after the sprayed daubing material solidifies and dries;
[0011] 6) After the last layer of daubing material is sprayed, use a flat tool to level the surface;
[0012] 7) Punch holes in the leveled daubing material.
[0013] Specifically, the mixing ratio of the coating material and water in step 1) is to mix at a ratio of 200-260 kg of water per 1 ton of coating material, and use manual stirring or mechanical stirring to fully stir until it becomes viscous and flowable.
[0014] Specifically, the mechanical transmission method in step 2) is screw pump transportation. The discharge port of the screw pump is connected to a high-pressure hose, and the inner diameter of the high-pressure hose is 30-40 mm, and the length of the high-pressure hose is controlled within 10 m.
[0015] Specifically, the compressed air source pipeline in step 3) is connected to an air compressor, and the air compressor controls the pressure of the compressed air source pipeline to be 0.4-0.8 MPa.
[0016] Specifically, the layer-by-layer spraying method in step 5) is to evenly spray the fully mixed and stirred coating material onto the permanent layer of the tundish in the manner described in step 2) and step 3). The thickness of each layer of coating material is controlled within 15-20 mm, and 2-4 layers are sprayed according to needs.
[0017] Specifically, the hole punching in step 7) uses steel nails with a diameter of 1-2 mm, the hole punching depth is 15-25 mm, and the hole spacing is 40-60 mm to enable rapid and sufficient evaporation of moisture.
[0018] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] The high-efficiency tundish coating material spraying and masonry method designed by the present invention has a large spraying force, a uniform spraying surface, stronger adhesion, reduces the risk of collapse of the working layer of the tundish, and is safer and more reliable.
[0021] The high-efficiency tundish coating material spraying and masonry method designed by the present invention does not use carbon-containing substances such as phenolic resin as a binder, and there is no dust during the spraying process, which conforms to the national industrial policy of green, low-carbon and environmental protection.
[0022] The high-efficiency tundish coating material spraying and masonry method designed by the present invention utilizes the waste heat after the permanent layer of the tundish is recycled. When spraying, the temperature is high and the moisture evaporates quickly.
