Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a processing device for producing special-shaped components made of metal materials, in particular to a processing device for producing steel rails. Background Art
[0002] Rails are the main components of railway tracks, and their main function is to guide the wheels of vehicles forward, bear the huge pressure of the wheels, and transfer this pressure to the sleepers. Existing rails are usually composed of three parts: the rail head, the rail waist and the rail bottom. Their cross-section is in the shape of an "I". This shape not only has good force resistance and saves materials, but also has the best bending resistance. The current production method of rails is usually a hot rolling process, which is to heat the steel billet to a high temperature state so that it reaches above the recrystallization temperature, and then use rolling equipment to perform multiple rolling processes on the high-temperature steel billet to plastically deform it, and finally form a rail of the desired shape and size. However, when using this hot rolling process to produce rails, the rolling process is relatively complicated, which makes the cost of producing rails higher, and the rails produced by rolling have problems with low dimensional accuracy and unstable quality, which will seriously affect the production quality of the rails. Summary of the Invention
