[0001] The present application relates to the field of forging technology, in particular to a fan-shaped support precision forging method. BACKGROUND
[0002] AISI422 steel is a reinforced 12% Cr type martensitic heat-resistant stainless steel, due to its alloying elements Cr, W, Mo content is slightly higher, so the strength is good; The notch sensitivity is small, and it has good damping and anti-relaxation, and the comprehensive performance is good, so it is applied to the fan-shaped plate in the hot rolling reel equipment of the steel plant;
[0003] The existing public literature technology "Manufacturing process of AISI422 steel fan-shaped plate-Yang Yunzhi, Wu Huna, Lu Changhe" proposes the manufacturing process flow of AISI422 steel fan-shaped plate blank: electric furnace smelting + LFV→ pouring ingot→ annealing→ hot sending to forging steel company→ forging→ post-forging annealing→ roughing→ flaw detection→ quenching and tempering→ flaw detection→ inspection→ check and hand over; It is indicated that the contents of Si, Mn, Ni and S need to be strictly controlled during smelting, the initial forging temperature is controlled to be 1150 DEG C during forging, the final forging temperature is controlled to be 920 DEG C, and annealing and quenching and tempering are carried out according to the correct process;
[0004] The existing public literature technology "Cracking analysis and heat treatment process improvement of AISI422 steel fan-shaped plate-Qiu Yan, Zhou Feng" indicates that AISI422 steel has high tempering resistance, and is prone to cause insufficient tempering, so a supplementary tempering can be added accordingly, a quenching and tempering process of 1050 DEG C quenching + 750 DEG C + 700 DEG C tempering is adopted, the organization is tempered sorbite + carbide particles with martensite orientation maintained, and the fan-shaped plate made by the process meets the design requirements and has good strength and plasticity indicators; However, the fan-shaped plate forgings after the first tempering at 750 DEG C and the second tempering at 700 DEG C in the quenching and tempering process are furnace cooled to ≤300 DEG C and then air cooled, and the fan-shaped plate forgings are cooled to room temperature only by air cooling when the cooling temperature is ≤300 DEG C, which wastes a lot of waiting time and affects the forging efficiency.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a fan-shaped support precision forging method which can improve the forging efficiency while ensuring the quality of the forgings to solve the problems raised in the above background technology. SUMMARY

[0028] In combination Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown in the drawings, in this embodiment, a method for precision forging of a sector support, the steps for forging the sector support using the precision forging method are as follows:
[0029] Step one, remove the surface oxide scale of the AISI422 ingot, preheat the AISI422 ingot to 1150±10℃ and maintain for 3h before forging, obtain the AISI422 sector blank forging, and anneal the AISI422 sector blank forging at 680±10℃ and maintain for 80h, then furnace cool to ≤250℃ and discharge for cooling.
[0030] Step two, after roughing and flaw detection of the AISI422 sector blank forging, heat up and quench, quench to 1150±10℃ and maintain for 3.5h, then discharge and oil cool to ≤150℃.
[0031] Step three, clean the oil stains on the surface of the AISI422 sector blank forging, once-temper the AISI422 sector blank forging, heat the AISI422 sector blank forging to 750℃ and maintain for 9h, then furnace cool to ≤300℃ and discharge.
[0032] Step four, vertically clamp the AISI422 sector blank forging on the vertical support, drive the vertical support to rotate the AISI422 sector blank forging at a constant speed, at the same time, monitor the maximum temperature difference on the surface of the AISI422 sector blank forging in real time, when the maximum temperature difference on the surface of the AISI422 sector blank forging is ≤25℃, move the axial flow fan from far to near around the rotating area of the AISI422 sector blank forging at a constant wind speed, shorten the distance between the axial flow fan and the AISI422 sector blank forging, increase the impact force of the airflow of the axial flow fan, after the axial flow fan reaches the termination position, gradually increase the airflow speed of the axial flow fan, speed up the cooling speed of the AISI422 steel blank forging, until the AISI422 sector blank forging cools to room temperature.
[0033] Step five, the secondary tempering AISI422 sector blank forging, the AISI422 sector blank forging is heated to 700℃ for 9h, and then cooled to ≤300℃ in the furnace.
[0034] Step six, the secondary tempering AISI422 sector blank forging is cooled to room temperature by the cooling method in step four. After the AISI422 steel blank forging is qualified by flaw detection and inspection, the forging is completed.

[0040] Step two, when the maximum temperature difference of the AISI422 sector blank forging surface is >15℃, ≤20℃, the axial flow fan stops moving, and continues to move after the temperature difference falls to ≤15℃;
[0041] Step three, when the maximum temperature difference of the AISI422 sector blank forging surface is >20℃, ≤25℃, the axial flow fan moves to the initial position at a speed of 0.1D / min, and stops moving after the temperature difference falls to >15℃, ≤20℃;
[0042] Step four, repeat the above steps until the axial flow fan stops moving to the termination position.
