Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of hot rolling forming technology of wear-resistant steel, specifically a hot rolling forming process for arc flat steel of high wear-resistant excavator bucket wear-resistant plate. Background Technology
[0002] Wear-resistant flat steel is a core wear-resistant component of construction machinery (such as excavator buckets), and its performance directly affects the service life and operating efficiency of the equipment. Currently, the mainstream production method of wear-resistant strips in the industry is to cut plates into square steel and then process them. This method has the problems of low material utilization, cumbersome cutting process, and high production cost. Moreover, traditional right-angle square steel requires a large amount of welding flux to ensure the welding strength during welding assembly, resulting in low welding efficiency and insufficient welding reliability.
[0003] Meanwhile, due to its inherent alloy composition, wear-resistant steel suffers from significant hot brittleness, a major technical challenge. During production, defects such as cracks and folds easily occur on the surface of the cast billet, making dimensional accuracy difficult to control, and resulting in frequent occurrences of uneven thickness and excessive curvature. Furthermore, existing processes lack sufficient control over heating and heat treatment parameters, easily leading to temper brittleness and uneven material mechanical properties. It is difficult to simultaneously achieve high tensile strength, impact absorption energy, and hardness, and the high content of non-metallic inclusions further affects the wear resistance and service stability of wear-resistant steel, failing to fully meet the high-strength and high-wear-resistance requirements of engineering machinery under extreme working conditions.

The cooling bed adopts a natural air cooling method. S402 cooling parameters: The cooling rate is controlled at 5-15℃ / min, and the final cooling temperature is ≤300℃ to ensure that the steel cools slowly, reduce internal stress, and avoid cracks and deformation defects; the insulation cover is removed in time during the cooling process to shorten the cooling cycle and ensure cooling uniformity.
[0012] Preferably, the surface cleaning in step S501 involves using mechanical cleaning methods to remove iron oxide scale, indentations, and scratches from the steel surface, and the use of chisels for cleaning is prohibited; after cleaning local defects, the steel size shall not be smaller than the minimum allowable size.
[0013] Preferably, the S502 straightening process involves straightening the cooled flat steel to control the curvature: side bends ≤ 3.0 mm per meter, total curvature ≤ 0.35%; flat bends ≤ 5.0 mm per meter, total curvature ≤ 0.55%, ensuring no side or flat bends that affect use; S503 Fixed-length cutting: Fixed-length or multiple-length cutting is performed according to requirements. The standard length is 4-7.5m; the short length is not less than 4m, and its weight does not exceed 12% of the total delivery weight; when delivering fixed-length or multiple-length items, the length deviation is allowed to be 0-+60mm.

[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a hot rolling forming process for high wear-resistant bucket wear-resistant plate arc flat steel, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. The hot rolling forming process of the arc section of NM500 wear-resistant flat steel solves the problem of hot brittleness and improves production stability: By optimizing the range of chemical composition of steel billet (precisely controlling the content of C, Cr, and Mo alloying elements), combined with the segmented heating process of "slow preheating + uniform high temperature heating" and the air cooling method of toothed step steel, the hot brittleness of wear-resistant steel is effectively suppressed, the cracking of billet and the generation of surface defects are reduced, the surface quality qualification rate of billet is significantly improved, and the central porosity and general porosity in low magnification structure are controlled at the excellent level. The production yield is more than 15% higher than that of traditional processes.
[0016] 2. The NM500 wear-resistant flat steel features a hot-rolled arc section forming process that achieves dimensional accuracy and meets assembly requirements. This process employs a multi-pass rolling system combined with targeted finishing and straightening processes to strictly control the thickness deviation (±0.30-0.40mm), width deviation (±0.60-0.80mm), and curvature (lateral bend ≤3.0mm per meter, horizontal bend ≤5.0mm per meter) of the finished flat steel. The thickness difference within the same cross-section does not exceed 50% of the thickness tolerance, and there are no protrusions on the wide surface. This fully meets the assembly accuracy requirements of wear-resistant strips for engineering machinery, reducing subsequent processing and adjustment steps.
[0017] 3. The NM500 wear-resistant flat steel features a circular arc section hot rolling forming process, which optimizes welding performance and reduces usage costs: the circular arc section design combined with an optimized bevel structure requires less welding flux to achieve welding strength higher than that of traditional right-angle square steel (tensile strength can reach over 180MPa, and welding strength is increased by 30%). This not only reduces welding material consumption and welding costs but also improves welding efficiency, making it suitable for the assembly needs of new buckets in engineering machinery development.
[0018] 4. The NM500 wear-resistant flat steel features a hot-rolled arc section forming process that achieves balanced mechanical properties and extends wear life. By precisely controlling the quenching and tempering temperatures (avoiding the tempering brittle zone around 280℃), the metallographic structure is optimized to uniform tempered martensite, resulting in a stable tensile strength of 1450-1650MPa, a yield strength of 1200-1300MPa, and a surface Brinell hardness of 460-490HBW. Simultaneously, it maintains an elongation of 7-9% and an impact absorption energy of ≥24J, exhibiting excellent strength-ductility product. Its wear resistance is more than 20% higher than that of traditional cut square steel, significantly extending the service life of excavator bucket components.
[0019] 5. The hot rolling forming process of the arc section of the NM500 wear-resistant flat steel improves material utilization and reduces production costs: the direct hot rolling forming process of rectangular continuous casting billets replaces the traditional plate cutting method, avoiding material waste during the cutting process. The material utilization rate is increased from about 75% in the traditional process to more than 90%. At the same time, the production process is simplified, the production cycle is shortened, and the overall production cost is reduced by 10-15%, which has significant economic benefits.

S5 finishing process: S501 Surface Cleaning: Use mechanical cleaning methods to remove iron oxide scale, indentations, and scratches from the steel surface. Chiseling is prohibited. After cleaning local defects, the steel dimensions shall not be smaller than the minimum allowable dimensions. S502 Straightening Treatment: Straighten the cooled flat steel to control the curvature: side bend ≤ 3.0mm per meter, total curvature ≤ 0.35%; flat bend ≤ 5.0mm per meter, total curvature ≤ 0.55%, ensuring no side bends or flat bends that affect use; S503 Fixed-length cutting: Fixed-length or multiple-length cutting is performed according to requirements.

It has excellent strength-ductility product and wear resistance is more than 20% higher than that of traditional cut square steel, significantly extending the service life of excavator bucket components. Furthermore, this process improves material utilization and reduces production costs: it adopts a direct hot rolling forming process for rectangular continuous casting billets, replacing the traditional plate cutting method, avoiding material waste during the cutting process, increasing material utilization from about 75% in the traditional process to over 90%, while simplifying the production process, shortening the production cycle, and reducing overall production costs by 10-15%, resulting in significant economic benefits. Furthermore, this process achieves improved purity and enhanced stability in use: through strict cleaning of the billet surface and control of non-metallic inclusions (fine series A, B, C, and D ≤ 2.5 grade, coarse series ≤ 1.5 grade), cracks and internal defects are reduced, the material structure is purer, and the fatigue resistance and stability in use under extreme conditions in the Sahara Desert and Antarctica are greatly improved, making it suitable for the all-domain operation needs of engineering machinery.
