Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of low-alloy high-strength steel production, and particularly relates to a production method for suppressing straightening cracks in thin-gauge NM550 wear-resistant steel plates. Background Technology
[0002] NM550 steel plates, with their superior high strength and wear resistance, occupy a core position in fields with stringent requirements for material wear resistance, such as mining and heavy-duty loading and unloading machinery. They are a key basic material for ensuring the efficient and stable operation of equipment in these industries. However, a thorny problem has consistently plagued the industry during the production and processing of thin-gauge NM550 steel plates. After quenching, thin-gauge NM550 steel plates are prone to developing wavy defects on their edges. If these wavy defects are not addressed, they will seriously affect the accuracy of the steel plate in subsequent processing and assembly, and may even lead to equipment malfunctions. Therefore, straightening treatment is necessary to eliminate these defects.
[0003] However, new challenges arise. Thin-gauge NM550 steel plates are highly susceptible to cracking during straightening at room temperature, resulting in evenly spaced straightening cracks. This problem significantly restricts the quality and application of thin-gauge NM550 steel plates. In-depth research reveals that porosity, inclusions, and quenching internal stress are the main technical bottlenecks causing this cracking issue. The presence of porosity is a significant hidden danger leading to cracking. Porosity inside the steel plate acts like weak voids, disrupting the continuity and integrity of the material structure. During straightening, when the steel plate is subjected to external forces, stress concentration areas form around the pores, significantly reducing the material's load-bearing capacity in these areas. These areas are highly susceptible to fracture under stress, subsequently triggering crack propagation. Inclusions also severely affect the straightening performance of the steel plate. The properties of inclusions in the steel plate differ significantly from those of the matrix material. Under straightening stress, stress concentration easily occurs at the interface between the inclusions and the matrix. When stress reaches a certain level, the interface between inclusions and the matrix will separate, forming microcracks. These microcracks, as they propagate, will eventually lead to overall cracking of the steel plate. Quenching internal stress is another key factor causing straightening cracking. During the quenching process of thin-gauge NM550 steel plates, the rapid temperature change generates significant internal stress within the material. During room temperature straightening, the externally applied straightening force and the internal quenching stress of the steel plate are superimposed. When the superimposed stress exceeds the material's inherent strength limit, the steel plate will crack.
[0004] The straightening cracking problems caused by these technical pain points not only result in a large amount of scrap steel plates, increasing production costs and reducing production efficiency, but also pose significant hidden dangers for subsequent applications. If cracked steel plates are mistakenly used in mining, loading and unloading machinery, etc., they may suddenly break during equipment operation due to crack propagation, causing serious safety accidents, resulting in huge economic losses and casualties. Therefore, solving the straightening cracking problem of thin-gauge NM550 steel plates caused by porosity, inclusions, and quenching internal stress has become a key technical bottleneck that the industry urgently needs to overcome.

[0078] Comparative Example 1
[0079] A production method for straightening and cracking conventional NM550 wear-resistant steel plates is provided, including the following implementation details:
[0080] Experimental materials:
[0081] Steel plate (C: 0.2%, Mn: 1.0%, Cr: 1.0%, Mo: 0.2%, S: 0.01%, P: 0.02%, the remainder is Fe)
[0082] Experimental objective:
[0083] Preparation method for straightening and cracking of traditional NM550 wear-resistant steel plates.
[0084] Experimental steps:
[0085] S1: LF furnace refining + RH vacuum degassing is adopted to ensure H≤2ppm and total inclusions≤20ppm. Low superheat casting is then used, combined with electromagnetic stirring in the crystallizer and electromagnetic stirring at the end of solidification. The billet is slowly cooled.
[0086] S2: Heat the billet to 1150-1200℃ and hold for 2-3 hours to ensure complete dissolution of carbides. Use two-stage rolling: rough rolling temperature 950-1050℃, single pass reduction 15-20% to break austenite grains, followed by finish rolling temperature 850-900℃, and final rolling thickness controlled at finished product thickness + 3-5mm.
[0087] S3: The finished product is cooled after rolling, and segmented controlled cooling is adopted. The cooling rate is 5-10℃ / s. After the temperature drops to 600-650℃, the cooling rate is controlled to be reduced to 2-3℃ / s. The product is then slowly cooled to below 300℃ to reduce thermal stress.
[0088] S4: Control the heating temperature at 880-920℃ and hold it for 1.5-2 minutes. Then, use water quenching + air cooling in stages to control the cooling. Set the initial cooling rate to ≥30℃ / s. When the temperature drops to 200-250℃, stop water cooling and switch to air cooling.
[0089] S5: Control the tempering temperature at 200-250℃, hold for 2-3 minutes to ensure that more than 50% of the quenching stress is eliminated, and after tempering, slowly cool with the furnace to below 100℃ before taking it out of the furnace.
[0090] S6: Straighten within 4 hours after tempering, then use low temperature straightening. Heat the steel plate to 150-200℃ and use a 20-roll precision straightener. Use a small reduction and multiple passes mode. The initial reduction is ≤0.5mm, and the reduction decreases in each subsequent pass. Finally, perform low temperature stress relief treatment immediately after straightening.

[0093] Mechanical properties <![CDATA[R m ]]> Lateral elongation Charpy shock absorption energy at -20℃ (transverse and longitudinal values) cold bending properties Comparative Example 1 <![CDATA[R P0.2 >1350MPa]]> <![CDATA[R m >1550MPa]]> A>5.5% >23J 180° cold bending micro-cracks
[0094] This article focuses on the straightening cracking problem of thin-gauge NM550 wear-resistant steel plates caused by porosity, inclusions, and quenching internal stress. It proposes a production method that includes optimization of hydrogen diffusion, rolling, and heat treatment processes: after casting molten steel of specific composition into thick slabs, hydrogen diffusion is carried out in a heat preservation pit, and the temperature and thickness parameters of heating, rough rolling, and finish rolling are precisely controlled. Combined with the ACC cooling device for segmented controlled cooling, the quenching and tempering temperatures are optimized.
[0095] Example 1 addresses the straightening cracking problem of thin-gauge NM550 wear-resistant steel plates. A 150mm thick slab was cast from molten steel with a specific composition, subjected to hydrogen diffusion in a 650℃ incubator for 50 hours, and heated to 1180℃ for 180 minutes. Rough rolling was performed at 1120℃, and final rolling at 1050℃. Combined with ACC cooling, finish rolling, 910℃ quenching, and 220℃ tempering, a steel plate with excellent comprehensive performance was successfully produced. P0.2 >1450MPa, R m >1800MPa, transverse elongation >14%, impact energy at -20℃ >27J, good cold bending properties, effectively solving the straightening cracking problem caused by porosity, inclusions and quenching internal stress.
[0096] Example 2 uses steel with different elemental contents and adopts the core process concept of Example 1. Its 150mm slab is hydrogen-expanded at 650℃ for 50 hours. The heating, rough rolling, finish rolling, and cooling parameters are the same as in Example 1, with quenching at 910℃ and tempering at 220℃. The final product's mechanical properties reach R... P0.2 >1400MPa, R m With a strength of >1600MPa, transverse elongation >8%, impact energy at -20℃ >25J, and no cracks after 180° cold bending, the straightening cracking problem of steel plates with different compositions was also solved through process optimization, and the performance meets the requirements.
[0097] Example 3, for steel plates with the same elemental content as Example 2, adjusted the process parameters. A 220mm slab underwent hydrogen diffusion at 670℃ for 50 hours, was tapped at 1230℃, roughed at 1150℃, finished at 1060℃, and cooled to 880℃ within 30 seconds using ACC. The finishing rolling temperature was set at 880℃, the finishing temperature at 830℃, the quenching temperature at 950℃, and the tempering temperature at 250℃. The product performance was R. P0.2 >1400MPa, R m With a strength of >1590MPa, transverse elongation >9%, impact energy at -20℃ >26J, and no cracks after 180° cold bending, qualified steel plates were produced by adjusting process parameters, and straightening cracking was suppressed.
[0098] Comparative Example 1 uses a traditional process to produce NM550 wear-resistant steel plates. The raw material composition is C: 0.2%, Mn: 1.0%, etc. The process involves LF furnace refining and RH vacuum degassing, slow cooling of the cast billet, heating to 1150-1200℃, two-stage rolling, segmented controlled cooling followed by water quenching and air cooling, tempering at 200-250℃, and low-temperature stress relief after straightening. The final product's mechanical properties are R... P0.2 >1350MPa, R m With an impact strength of >1550MPa, a transverse elongation of only >5.5%, an impact energy of >23J at -20℃, and the appearance of micro-cracks during 180° cold bending, the problem of cracking during straightening has not been completely solved, resulting in weak overall performance.
[0099] Comparing Examples 1-3 with Comparative Example 1, it is evident that Example 1 exhibits a particularly significant advantage: its mechanical properties are all superior to those of Examples 2, 3, and Comparative Example 1, especially R. m With a strength >1800MPa and a transverse elongation >14%, far exceeding other methods, its cold bending performance is excellent, with no cracks, thus solving the problem of straightening cracking. In contrast, Comparative Example 1 exhibits micro-cracks during cold bending. Although Examples 2 and 3 meet the performance standards, their overall performance is weaker than Example 1. Therefore, the production method of Example 1 is significantly superior to other methods in suppressing straightening cracking of thin-gauge NM550 wear-resistant steel plates and improving overall performance.
