Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing formed parts from a hot strip.
  • the hot strip to be unwound can work without braking or without sufficient tension between the unwinding system and the introduction rolls of a processing system both in a large arc and also run in a tight arc, depending on whether it is leading or lagging behind. Especially when it comes to small bow and with frequent changes between leading and lagging, which is too strong Beats in the strip, coil breaks occur as serious damage to the strip surface. Fast uncoiling has a particularly strong hitting and accordingly strong coil breaks Episode.
  • Coil breaks between the straightening rolls can also occur. Due to the sinusoidal continuous bending of the band, the tension in the different band sections is distributed unevenly, so that flow can start at different loads. Coil breaks can no longer be eliminated by subsequent straightening, bending, pickling or skin-dressing. The tendency towards coil breaks increases the softer, thinner and narrower the hot strip to be unwound. The same applies to smaller coil diameters.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a method for producing soft coilbreak-free Steel strip with permanent yield point elongation and good mechanical properties to indicate the lowest possible consumption of alloying elements.
  • the manufacturing method according to the invention for the formed parts from hot strip provides for a defined titanium content in the steel to be made more uniform, which has the following analytical values in% by weight: C 0.02 - 0.08% Si 0.01 - 0.40% Mn 0.05-1.00% P 0.002 - 0.025% S 0.001 - 0.015% al 0.015-0.080% N ⁇ 0.0080% Ti > 0.04 - 0.080%
  • Remainder iron and unavoidable impurities whereby the steel is cast into slabs using the continuous casting process and then finished from a slab heated from room temperature to over 1100 ° C. to a hot strip of 2 to 6 mm thickness at temperatures above the Ar 3 point, at temperatures of 550 to reel up to 400 ° C.
  • the hot strip has an almost constant yield strength of less than 350 N / mm 2 in the freshly rolled state and after prolonged aging.
  • the titanium content of the steel for the production of coilbreak-free hot strip with a longer-term Elongation at stretch is set according to the invention so that it is larger than for setting Nitrogen, but less than is stoichiometrically necessary for the additional setting of carbon.
  • Hot strip remains coilbreak-free even after prolonged cold or warm aging, has good mechanical properties and can be produced with low consumption of alloying elements.
  • Examples of the coil break-free hot strip produced according to the invention and comparison strips are based on the composition in Table 1 (extract from the melt analysis), final rolling temperature and coil temperature characterized hot strip samples.
  • the steel strip is cooled in the coil in still air in relatively fresh rolling Condition assembled as hot strip or for cutting, punching or Bent parts machined after decoiling.
  • coil breaks can be done Avoid if the hot strip has been previously treated or if a special additional, and therefore expensive, Wrapping process with the help of a so-called McKay roll system, with the deliberately minimal, technically ineffective coil breaks can be used.
  • the uniformity of the yield point elongation occurs in all examined sample layers.
  • Table 2 in all sample layers with a steel with 0.033% by weight carbon, 0.20% by weight manganese and 0.04% by weight titanium and a reel temperature of 450 ° C., the yield strength and tensile strength values according to the method according to the invention achieved that correspond to those of the known soft, non-microalloyed grades according to US standard SAE 1006/1008.
  • this material is characterized by high elongation values of around 45% (A 5 standard sample).
  • Oil filter lids were produced from this tape and had such a flat surface that they did not need to be reworked.
  • formed parts can advantageously be produced from the coilbreak-free hot strip, the surface of which has to meet increased requirements.
  • Hot strip / melt sample Location R eH N / mm 2 R m N / mm 2 FIG.
