Description

Steel for high-speed motor train traction motor bearing and production method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of metallurgy, and particularly relates to bearing steel and a production method thereof.
Background
In recent years, in order to meet the requirements of railway transportation in China, the running speed of railways is continuously improved, and motor train units with the speed per hour of more than 250 km are becoming main vehicles for passenger railway transportation. According to the national 'medium-long term railway network planning', the scale of the national railway network reaches about 17.5 kilometers by 2025, wherein the high-speed railway is about 3.8 kilometers, and the construction of the high-speed railway brings great market demands for the manufacturing industries of railway vehicles and related parts. The running part, namely the bogie, of the high-speed rail motor train unit is a core component for ensuring the high-speed, safe and stable running of the train, and the bearing is one of key parts. The high-speed rail bearing mainly refers to an axle box bearing, a traction motor bearing and a gear box bearing in a high-speed railway rolling stock. The first requirement for railway transportation is safety, and particularly for passenger trains, safe operation is of even greater importance.
The traction motor of the high-speed motor car is the core of the motor car, so that higher requirements are also put forward on the traction motor: the device has the advantages of small volume, light weight and high output power, can output large starting torque when the high-speed motor train is started, and can smoothly regulate the speed within a wider speed range so as to realize the torque control of the high-speed motor train, so that very high performance requirements are provided for key component bearings in a traction motor of the high-speed motor train, and the requirements on raw material bearing steel for manufacturing the bearings are more strict naturally. At present, the steel for the high-speed motor car bearings in China is required to be imported from abroad, and has high dependence on the China where the bearing steels such as Germany, swedish, japan and the like are produced.
The bearing materials of the high-speed trains of countries with developed Japanese, american and European bearing manufacturing always adopt a high-cleanliness and high-strength design route, and for the steel for the bearing of the traction motor of the high-speed motor train, the element components mainly adopt GCr15, and the requirements of the steel for the bearing of the traction motor of the high-speed motor train are met by improving the purity and the toughness of the materials.
Domestic bearing enterprises start later in the aspect of application of the high-speed motor car traction motor bearing, and because a great gap exists between the bearing and the international bearing huge head in the aspects of subsequent heat treatment, accurate grinding and assembly of the bearing, the bearing processed by adopting the traditional GCr15 material cannot compete with the international bearing enterprises.
The basic thought of the preparation method of the carburized bearing steel for the high-speed railway disclosed by application numbers 201110156409.9 and 201110156392.7 is that Cr is reduced, ni is increased, trace V, nb is added to refine grains, and a process combining vacuum induction and vacuum consumable remelting technology is adopted to improve the purity of steel, but the process is complex, the production efficiency is low, the cost is far higher than that of the market, and the competitiveness is difficult to form; application number 200510027394.0 describes a method for producing an extremely high purity high carbon chromium bearing steel by smelting in a vacuum induction furnace of more than 1 ton. High cleanliness and tissue uniformity are important dependences for ensuring long-period and high-stability operation of the high-speed rail bearing.

In high-carbon chromium bearing steel, the carbon content is generally about 1.0%, and is one of the most important elements for ensuring the hardenability, hardness and wear resistance of the bearing steel. However, the carbon content is high, the influence on hardness is small, on the contrary, the carbide of the bearing steel is easy to generate, and the toughness of the bearing steel is also reduced. The C content of the invention is lower than that of the traditional high-carbon chromium bearing steel (0.95-1.05), and the range is determined to be 0.85-0.93%.
2) Determination of Si content
Si is added into the steel, so that ferrite can be reinforced, and the strength, the elastic limit and the hardenability are improved, and the Si content is designed to be 0.60-0.80%.
3) Determination of Mn content
Mn is used as deoxidizing element in steel making process, and has solid solution strengthening effect and raised hardenability, and the Mn content is 1.40-1.60%.
4) Determination of Cr content
Cr is carbide forming element, can improve the hardenability, wear resistance and corrosion resistance of steel, but Cr content is too high, combine with carbon in steel, easy to form massive carbide, this indissolvable carbide makes the toughness of steel reduce, the bearing life is reduced, the range of Cr content of the invention designs to be 1.35-1.65%.
5) Determination of Nb and V contents
The CCT curve of the steel can move downwards to the right through the cooperation of Nb and V, the stability of austenite can be increased, the concentration of C in austenite is reduced due to the precipitation of NbC compounds formed by Nb in the steel at the austenite grain boundary, the diffusion rate of C in the austenite is also reduced, the nucleation and growth of pearlite transformation are delayed, the whole transformation process is prolonged, the transformation is more complete, and the pearlite lamellar is finer. The Nb content is designed to be 0.02-0.06%, and the V content is designed to be 0.10-0.40%
6) Determination of Al content
Al is added as deoxidizing element in steel, and Al and N form fine aluminum nitride inclusion to refine crystal grains. However, when the Al content is too high, large-particle Al is easy to form in the molten steel smelting process 2 O 3 Brittle inclusions are removed, the purity of molten steel is reduced, and the service life of a finished product is influenced. The Al content of the present invention was determined to be 0.05% or less.
7) Determination of Ca content
The Ca content increases the number and size of spot-shaped oxides in the steel, and at the same time, since the spot-shaped oxides have high hardness and poor plasticity, they are not deformed when the steel is deformed, and voids are easily formed at the interface, thereby deteriorating the performance of the steel. The Ca content of the present invention was determined to be 0.001% or less.
8) Determination of Ti content
Ti element and N element are combined to form titanium nitride inclusion, and the titanium nitride inclusion has high hardness and sharp angle, and is easy to cause stress concentration during bearing operation and has great effect on bearing life, so that Ti is less than or equal to 0.0015%
9) Determination of O content
The oxygen content represents the total amount of oxide inclusions, and the limitation of the oxide brittle inclusions affects the service life of the finished product, and a large number of experiments show that the reduction of the oxygen content is remarkably beneficial to improving the purity of steel, particularly reducing the content of the oxide brittle inclusions of steel types. The oxygen content of the present invention was determined to be O.ltoreq.0.0008%.
10 Determination of P, S content
The P element causes element segregation during solidification of steel, and is dissolved in ferrite to distort and coarsen grains and increase cold brittleness, so that P is less than or equal to 0.015 percent; s element is easy to cause hot brittleness of steel, the ductility and toughness of the steel are reduced, and formed sulfide also damages the continuity of the steel, so that S is less than or equal to 0.010 percent.
