[0011] The high-manganese steel sheet is subjected to the first cold drum treatment using the first die head;
[0012] A second die head is used to perform a second cold drum treatment on the high manganese steel sheet that has completed the first cold drum treatment, resulting in a bowl-shaped blank. The diameter of the first die head is larger than the diameter of the second die head.
[0013] According to an embodiment of this application, a bowl-shaped blank is heated to obtain a preheated blank, comprising:
[0014] The bowl-shaped blank is fed into the heating furnace, and the furnace temperature is controlled within the first preset temperature range.
[0015] The heating furnace is kept warm to obtain a preheated blank.
[0016] According to an embodiment of this application, a high-manganese steel head is obtained by hot spinning a preheated blank, comprising:
[0017] Under the condition that the processing temperature is controlled within the second preset temperature range, the preheated blank is subjected to warm spinning treatment to obtain a high manganese steel end cap.
[0018] According to an embodiment of this application, the high-manganese steel sheet contains 0-2 weld seams. Before performing cold blasting treatment on the high-manganese steel sheet, the method further includes:
[0019] Weld defects are detected in high-manganese steel sheets, and high-manganese steel sheets with weld defects are identified as unprocessable sheets. Weld defects include one or more of the following: weld porosity, weld voids, and weld bubbles.
[0020] According to an embodiment of this application, before heat treatment of the bowl-shaped blank, the method further includes:
[0021] Weld anti-slip blocks to the bottom outer surface of the bowl-shaped blank;
[0022] When a high-manganese steel sheet contains at least one weld, a crack-resistant block is welded at the location of the weld in the end region of the bowl-shaped blank.
[0023] According to an embodiment of this application, the diameter of the first mold head is 1350mm-1450mm.
[0024] According to an embodiment of this application, the diameter of the second mold head is 1200mm-1300mm.
[0025] According to an embodiment of this application, the duration of the first cold drumming process is 2h-5h.
[0026] According to an embodiment of this application, the duration of the second cold drumming process is 2-3 hours.
[0027] According to an embodiment of this application, the first preset temperature range is 250℃-450℃.
[0028] According to an embodiment of this application, the heat preservation treatment time is 12-15 minutes.
[0029] According to an embodiment of this application, the second preset temperature range is 250°C-400°C.
[0030] According to the embodiments of this application, the Mn content of the high manganese steel sheet is 22%-26%.
[0031] According to the embodiments of this application, the yield strength of the high manganese steel sheet is 400MPa-550MPa.
[0032] According to the embodiments of this application, the tensile strength of the high manganese steel sheet is 800MPa-950MPa.
[0033] According to embodiments of this application, the elongation of the high-manganese steel sheet is 35%-65%.
[0034] According to the embodiments of this application, the Charpy impact energy (KV) of high manganese steel sheet at -196°C is 60J-300J.
[0035] This application achieves the following technical effects by obtaining high-manganese steel sheets; subjecting the high-manganese steel sheets to cold drum treatment to obtain a bowl-shaped blank, wherein the drum pressure of the cold drum treatment is 12MPa-20MPa and the duration is 4h-8h; subsequently, the bowl-shaped blank is heated to obtain a preheated blank; and finally, the preheated blank is warm-spinning to obtain a high-manganese steel end cap.
[0036] In the processing of high manganese steel heads, cold drumming treatment of the high manganese steel sheet can avoid cracking caused by the instantaneous high stress generated during one-time cold stamping by forming multiple drums. On this basis, by setting the drumming pressure of cold drumming treatment to 12MPa-20MPa and the duration to 4h-8h, the stress on the material during each drumming can be reduced, thereby achieving uniform deformation of the high manganese steel sheet and further reducing the occurrence of cracking.
[0037] Preheating the bowl-shaped blank before the warm spinning process can reduce the material's resistance to deformation and help maintain a certain temperature before entering the subsequent warm spinning process, thus avoiding temperature drop and further reducing the occurrence of cracking.
[0038] Based on this, warm spinning treatment of the bowl-shaped blank can also maintain a certain temperature of the end cap during the spinning process, avoiding temperature drop and cracking of the end cap during the spinning process, and further reducing the occurrence of cracking.
[0039] Overall, the processing method for high-manganese steel heads provided in this application achieves uniform deformation of the high-manganese steel sheet during processing, and maintains a certain temperature for the bowl-shaped blank before and during the warm spinning process to avoid temperature drop, thereby reducing the occurrence of head cracking, lowering the scrap rate of the heads, improving economic efficiency, and reducing overall production costs.

Detailed Implementation

[0048] Bake-hardening steel is a type of steel that undergoes a process called bake-hardening, which makes it stronger and more resilient than other types of high-strength steel. This unique quality makes bake-hardening steel a popular choice in the automotive industry for parts such as body panels, doors, and hoods, due to its superior resistance to dents and deformation.
[0049] Heads can be classified into different shapes such as hemispherical, elliptical, and butterfly, and are among the more complex components to be formed in pressure vessels. This is especially true for heads with a diameter ≥3200mm. Integral stamping under uniform internal pressure is quite difficult; if a segmented stamping method is used, the amount of welding work required for assembly is also substantial.
[0050] Lightweighting is a trend in various industries. When processing end caps, using high manganese steel instead of stainless steel can improve the low-temperature resistance and wear resistance of the end caps and help achieve lightweighting. For example, using high manganese steel with a strength of ≥800MPa can achieve a weight reduction of more than 15% compared to using stainless steel. Using high manganese steel instead of stainless steel can also reduce the cost of the stainless steel deformation hardening process.
[0051] However, high manganese steel is prone to cracking when used as a material for end caps, resulting in a high scrap rate, which increases production costs and reduces economic benefits.
[0052] In view of the above problems, this application provides a processing method for high manganese steel heads, which can reduce the occurrence of cracking, reduce the production cost of high manganese steel heads, and reduce the scrap rate of high manganese steel heads.
[0053] This application provides a method for processing high-manganese steel heads. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 It includes the following steps:
[0054] S100: Cold drum treatment is performed on high manganese steel sheets to obtain a bowl-shaped blank. The drum pressure of the cold drum treatment is 12MPa-20MPa and the duration is 4h-8h.
[0055] S200: Heat the bowl-shaped blank to obtain a preheated blank;
[0056] S300: The preheated blank is subjected to warm spinning treatment to obtain a high manganese steel head.
[0057] In the processing of high manganese steel heads, cold drumming treatment of the high manganese steel sheet can avoid cracking caused by the instantaneous high stress generated during one-time cold stamping by forming multiple drums. On this basis, by setting the drumming pressure of cold drumming treatment to 12MPa-20MPa and the duration to 4h-8h, the stress on the material during each drumming can be reduced, thereby achieving uniform deformation of the high manganese steel sheet and further reducing the occurrence of cracking.
[0058] Preheating the bowl-shaped blank before the warm spinning process can reduce the material's resistance to deformation and help maintain a certain temperature before entering the subsequent warm spinning process, thus avoiding temperature drop and further reducing the occurrence of cracking.
[0059] Based on this, warm spinning treatment of the bowl-shaped blank can also maintain a certain temperature of the end cap during the spinning process, avoiding temperature drop and cracking of the end cap during the spinning process, and further reducing the occurrence of cracking.
[0060] The specific steps for S100 are as follows:
[0061] High manganese steel sheets are subjected to cold drum treatment to obtain a bowl-shaped blank. The drum pressure of the cold drum treatment is 12MPa-20MPa and the duration is 4h-8h.
[0062] In the processing of high manganese steel heads, cold drumming treatment of the high manganese steel sheet can avoid cracking caused by the instantaneous high stress generated during one-time cold stamping by forming multiple drums. On this basis, by setting the drumming pressure of cold drumming treatment to 12MPa-20MPa and the duration to 4h-8h, the stress on the material during each drumming can be reduced, thereby achieving uniform deformation of the high manganese steel sheet and further reducing the occurrence of cracking.
[0063] In some embodiments, the high-manganese steel sheet is subjected to cold drum forming to obtain a bowl-shaped blank, including:
[0064] The high-manganese steel sheet is subjected to the first cold drum treatment using the first die head;
[0065] A second die head is used to perform a second cold drum treatment on the high manganese steel sheet that has completed the first cold drum treatment, resulting in a bowl-shaped blank. The diameter of the first die head is larger than the diameter of the second die head.
[0066] In this embodiment, a first die with a larger diameter is first used to perform a first cold drum treatment on the high manganese steel sheet. This can gradually introduce an initial curvature into the flat high manganese steel sheet, and the use of a first die with a larger diameter reduces the stress on the material in the early stage of drum forming, avoiding one-time deep deformation of the high manganese steel sheet, thereby reducing the occurrence of cracking.
[0067] The S200 steps are as follows: The bowl-shaped blank is heated to obtain a preheated blank;
[0068] Preheating the bowl-shaped blank before warm spinning can reduce the material's resistance to deformation and help maintain a certain temperature before entering the subsequent warm spinning process, thus avoiding temperature drop and further reducing the occurrence of cracking.
[0069] In some embodiments, the bowl-shaped blank is heated to obtain a preheated blank, including:
[0070] The bowl-shaped blank is fed into the heating furnace, and the furnace temperature is controlled within the first preset temperature range.
[0071] The heating furnace is kept warm to obtain a preheated blank.
[0072] In practical applications, the bowl-shaped blank can be fed into a heating furnace and the furnace temperature can be controlled to heat the blank. Heating can reduce the deformation resistance of the material and help maintain the bowl-shaped blank at a certain temperature before entering the subsequent hot spinning process, thus avoiding temperature drop and reducing cracking.
[0073] Based on this, by sending the bowl-shaped blank into the heating furnace and controlling the furnace to maintain the temperature for a period of time, it is helpful to achieve full heating of the bowl-shaped blank and ensure that the bowl-shaped blank is heated evenly as a whole, thus preventing cracking caused by local temperature differences within the bowl-shaped blank.
[0074] The S300 process is as follows: The preheated blank is subjected to warm spinning treatment to obtain a high-manganese steel head.
[0075] Warm spinning treatment of the bowl-shaped blank can maintain a certain temperature of the end cap during the spinning process, avoiding temperature drop and cracking, and further reducing the occurrence of cracking.
[0076] In some embodiments, a preheated blank is subjected to hot spinning treatment to obtain a high-manganese steel head, including:
[0077] Under the condition that the processing temperature is controlled within the second preset temperature range, the preheated blank is subjected to warm spinning treatment to obtain a high manganese steel end cap.
[0078] Warm spinning of preheated blanks within a certain processing temperature range can maintain a certain temperature of the end cap during spinning, preventing temperature drop and cracking, and further reducing the occurrence of cracking.
[0079] In some embodiments, the high-manganese steel sheet contains 0-2 weld seams, and the method further includes, before performing cold blasting treatment on the high-manganese steel sheet:
[0080] Weld defects are detected in high-manganese steel sheets, and high-manganese steel sheets with weld defects are identified as unprocessable sheets. Weld defects include one or more of the following: weld porosity, weld voids, and weld bubbles.
[0081] In practical applications, considering the actual diameter requirements of the end cap, the high manganese steel sheet can contain 0-2 welds. The welds can be distributed in the central area or both sides of the high manganese steel sheet. However, before processing the high manganese steel sheet, weld defects should be detected by ultrasonic testing or other methods to eliminate high manganese steel sheets with weld defects, thereby avoiding weld cracking during processing.
[0082] Weld defects generally include one or more of the following: weld porosity, weld voids, and weld bubbles. The area where the weld is located usually becomes one of the stress concentration areas during the processing of high manganese steel heads. If the high manganese steel sheet has at least one of the above-mentioned weld defects, it will increase the possibility of weld cracking during processing. However, by detecting weld defects in high manganese steel sheets through methods such as ultrasonic testing, high manganese steel sheets with weld defects can be eliminated in advance, thereby improving the quality stability of high manganese steel heads.
[0083] In some embodiments, before heat treatment of the bowl-shaped blank, the method further includes:
[0084] Weld anti-slip blocks to the bottom outer surface of the bowl-shaped blank;
[0085] When a high-manganese steel sheet contains at least one weld, a crack-resistant block is welded at the location of the weld in the end region of the bowl-shaped blank.
[0086] In practical applications, in order to prevent the bowl-shaped blank from slipping during the spinning process, anti-slip blocks can be welded to the bottom outer surface of the bowl-shaped blank, thereby improving the stress stability of the bowl-shaped blank during the spinning process.
[0087] When the high manganese steel sheet contains at least one weld, anti-crack blocks can be welded at the location of the weld in the end area of the bowl-shaped blank. The anti-crack blocks can distribute the stress on the weld during processing and effectively prevent the weld from cracking.
[0088] In some embodiments, the diameter of the first mold head is 1350mm-1450mm.
[0089] In some embodiments, the diameter of the second mold head is 1200mm-1300mm.
[0090] The diameter of the first die head is controlled at 1350mm-1450mm, and the diameter of the second die head is controlled at 1200mm-1300mm. This allows for effective control of the forming depth during different cold forming stages using dies of different radii, enabling a gradual transition from flat to deep arc in the high-manganese steel sheet.
[0091] In some embodiments, the duration of the first cold drumming process is 2h-5h.
[0092] In some embodiments, the duration of the second cold drumming process is 2-3 hours.
[0093] In some embodiments, the first preset temperature range is 250°C-450°C.
[0094] In some embodiments, the heat preservation treatment time is 12-15 minutes.
[0095] The first preset temperature range is controlled between 250℃ and 450℃. This can avoid both excessively high furnace temperature, which would waste resources, and excessively low furnace temperature, which would prevent the bowl-shaped blank from being fully heated to the appropriate temperature. This would lead to defects such as cold cracks due to temperature drop during hot spinning, thus affecting the quality of the finished head.
[0096] Based on this, setting the heat preservation time to 12-15 minutes helps to fully heat the bowl-shaped blank and ensure that the bowl-shaped blank is heated evenly, avoiding overheating of the surface or underheating of the center, thereby preventing cracking of the bowl-shaped blank due to local temperature differences.
[0097] In some embodiments, the second preset temperature range is 250°C-400°C.
[0098] The second preset temperature range is controlled at 250℃-400℃. This, combined with the setting of the first preset temperature range, can prevent defects such as cold cracks from occurring in the bowl-shaped blank during the hot spinning process due to temperature drop, thereby affecting the quality of the finished end cap.
[0099] In some embodiments, the Mn content of the high-manganese steel sheet is 22%-26%.
[0100] In some embodiments, the yield strength of the high-manganese steel sheet is 400MPa-550MPa.
[0101] In some embodiments, the tensile strength of the high-manganese steel sheet is 800MPa-950MPa.
[0102] In some embodiments, the elongation of the high manganese steel sheet is 35%-65%.
[0103] In some embodiments, the Charpy impact energy (KV) of the high-manganese steel sheet at -196°C is 60J-300J.
[0104] Controlling the chemical composition and mechanical properties of high-manganese steel within the aforementioned range helps to leverage the advantages of high-manganese steel sheets in terms of mechanical properties during processing. This results in high-manganese steel heads that simultaneously possess both high strength and high toughness, while maintaining excellent impact resistance and safety performance even at ultra-low temperatures of -196℃.
[0105] Bake-hardening steel is a type of steel that undergoes a process called bake-hardening, which makes it stronger and more resilient than other types of high-strength steel. This unique quality makes bake-hardening steel a popular choice in the automotive industry for parts such as body panels, doors, and hoods, due to its superior resistance to dents and deformation.
[0106] Heads can be classified into different shapes such as hemispherical, elliptical, and butterfly, and are among the more complex components to be formed in pressure vessels. This is especially true for heads with a diameter ≥3200mm. Integral stamping under uniform internal pressure is quite difficult; if a segmented stamping method is used, the amount of welding work required for assembly is also substantial.
[0107] Lightweighting is a trend in various industries. When processing end caps, using high manganese steel instead of stainless steel can improve the low-temperature resistance and wear resistance of the end caps and help achieve lightweighting. For example, using high manganese steel with a strength of ≥800MPa can achieve a weight reduction of more than 15% compared to using stainless steel. Using high manganese steel instead of stainless steel can also reduce the cost of the stainless steel deformation hardening process.
[0108] However, high manganese steel is prone to cracking when used as a material for end caps, resulting in a high scrap rate, which increases production costs and reduces economic benefits.
[0109] In the processing of high manganese steel heads, this application employs a cold-drumming process on the high manganese steel sheet. This allows for multiple drumming stages, avoiding the cracking caused by the instantaneous high stress generated during single-stage cold stamping. Furthermore, by setting the drumming pressure to 12MPa-20MPa and the duration to 4-8 hours, the stress on the material during each drumming stage is reduced, thereby achieving uniform deformation of the high manganese steel sheet and further minimizing the occurrence of cracking.
[0110] Preheating the bowl-shaped blank before the warm spinning process can reduce the material's resistance to deformation and help maintain a certain temperature before entering the subsequent warm spinning process, thus avoiding temperature drop and further reducing the occurrence of cracking.
[0111] Based on this, warm spinning treatment of the bowl-shaped blank can also maintain a certain temperature of the end cap during the spinning process, avoiding temperature drop and cracking of the end cap during the spinning process, and further reducing the occurrence of cracking.
