The invention relates to a controlled-
forging controlled-cooling
processing technology of a bearing ring prepared by GCr15, comprising the following steps of:
quenching the bearing ring in
cooling fluid at final
forging temperature of 850-950 DEG C and at fluid outlet temperature of 350-550 DEG C; when heating the bearing ring to the temperature of 450-550 DEG C, after preserving the temperature for 1h-3h, discharging the bearing ring from a boiler and cooling the bearing ring to
room temperature; when heating the bearing ring to the temperature of 650-690 DEG C again, preserving the temperature for 1h; when continuously heating the bearing ring to the temperature of 740-780 DEG C, after preserving the temperature for 2-3h, cooling the bearing ring to the temperature of 680-690 DEG C and preserving the temperature for 2-4 hours; finally, when cooling the bearing ring to the temperature of 550-600 DEG C at the speed of 10 DEG C / h, cooling o the bearing ring to the
room temperature along with the boiler by air;
quenching a machined semi-finished bearing ring; when heating to the temperature of 810-830 DEG C, after preserving the temperature for 45-60min, discharging the machined semi-finished bearing ring from the boiler and
quenching the machined semi-finished bearing ring in oil; and when heating the machined semi-finished bearing ring to the temperature of 160-200 DEG C after being quenched, preserving the temperature of the machined semi-finished bearing ring for 4h, discharging the machined semi-finished bearing ring from the boiler and cooling the machined semi-finished bearing ring to the
room temperature by air. According to the invention, carbides,
martensite crystals and
austenite crystals of the bearing ring are refined, network carbides are improved or eliminated and
impact ductility and fatigue life are improved.
