Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automatic metal welding technology, and in particular to a novel automatic welding method for a low-magnetic steel flat-position trolley. Background Technology

[0002] Low-magnetic steel, as a material with low magnetic permeability and low remanence, is widely used in some fields with strict requirements for magnetic field environment, such as power transformers, nuclear magnetic resonance devices, and shipbuilding, to avoid the magnetic field from having a significant impact on the performance of the equipment.

[0003] Low-magnetic steel has poor thermal conductivity and a large coefficient of linear expansion. These characteristics work together to easily lead to heat accumulation and uneven stress distribution in the welding area, thereby inducing a variety of defects, including hot crystallization cracks, hydrogen porosity, significant welding deformation (such as angular deformation and warping), and excessive welding residual stress, which seriously affect the quality of the joint and the stability of the structure.

[0004] Traditional manual welding is limited by human strength, cannot be done continuously, has many weld joints, and requires multiple grinding and slag removal processes, which seriously affects welding efficiency and welding quality. At the same time, manual welding is slow and the heat input is high, which can easily lead to welding deformation and affect the quality of product construction. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Further, the welding procedure is as follows: ① A "V" type groove is adopted, and the single side slope is 30°-32.5°, no blunt edge is left, and the assembly gap is 0-2 mm; ② No preheating is performed before welding, and the groove and the two sides of the groove within the range of 30 mm-70 mm are dried to remove moisture; ③ The interpass temperature is ≤100℃, and the linear energy is ≤15 kJ / cm during the welding process; ④ After each welding is completed, the weld is polished according to the slag removal condition, and the welding slag is cleaned; ⑤ The back carbon arc is gas planed to clean the root, and then polished to expose the metal luster; ⑥ The welded seam after welding is completed is subjected to appearance inspection, and after the appearance inspection is qualified, it is placed for 48 h; ⑦ The welded seam is subjected to non-destructive testing, the radiographic non-destructive testing result meets the requirement of grade II film, and the mechanical property test meets the qualified index of low magnetic steel.

[0014] Further, the track of the full-automatic welding trolley is fixed on the base steel plate by a vacuum suction cup.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows: 1、The welding trolley can automatically, continuously and stably perform welding, so that the risk of welding deformation is reduced, excessive weld joints are not generated, repeated polishing and slag removal do not affect the welding efficiency, and thus the waiting time is reduced, the labor intensity is reduced, and the working environment is improved, so that the welding continuity of the welding method in the application is good, and a weld and a product with good appearance and high quality can be obtained. 2、The welding method can significantly reduce the risks of hot cracking, hydrogen pores and welding deformation by drying and removing moisture before welding, so that the stability of the welding process can be improved, the weld quality can be ensured, and pores can be reduced.

[0016] 3、The radiographic results of the weld of the welding method meet the corresponding standard requirements, and the mechanical properties of the weld joint destruction test meet the technical requirements of 03Cr21Ni14Mo3N plate and matching welding material, so that a feasible welding method is provided for flat position welding of new low magnetic steel.
