Description
Technical Field
The application belongs to the technical field of forging processing, and relates to a method and a device for reducing surface decarburization of a forging.
Background
The quenched and tempered steel crankshaft is very easy to generate surface decarburization phenomenon in the forging heating and forming processes. The forging production process needs links such as blank heating, forging forming, trimming, heat treatment, subsequent surface shot blasting treatment and the like. In the induction heating stage of the blank, the forging forming stage and the heat treatment stage, the surface of the blank or the forging is in a high-temperature state, and the surface of the forging can be continuously subjected to oxidation reaction with oxygen in the air, so that carbon elements on the surface layer of the forging and the oxygen in the air are subjected to oxidation reaction, and a decarburized layer on the surface part is gradually deepened. The forging with higher requirements for the surface decarburized layer can cause the technical index to be unsatisfied. In order to realize automation, the forging blank is heated by an intermediate frequency power supply induction heating method in recent years at home and abroad, the surface decarburization is not required or not required by various manufacturers in the previous years, and when the forging is heated by the intermediate frequency power supply induction heating, indexes such as core surface temperature difference of the blank, head-tail temperature difference of the blank, heating beat, heating efficiency and the like are often focused, so that a high-power rapid heating method is often used in the initial stage of heating the blank, as much energy as possible is input to the blank as soon as possible, and due to the skin effect of induction heating, current is concentrated on the outer surface of the blank, so that the outer surface is always near the target temperature in the whole heating process, and the surface serious decarburization is caused although the heat conduction efficiency is improved. In an automobile engine, if the surface decarburized layers of a crankshaft and a connecting rod are too thick, stress concentration occurs at corresponding positions, and metal fatigue at the positions is caused by long-term operation, so that the crankshaft and the connecting rod are broken firstly, and the service life of the whole engine is influenced.
The forging and forming and subsequent processes of the crankshaft forging product are as follows: … … blank induction heating stage, forging forming stage, heat treatment stage, surface shot blasting stage, flaw detection … …, wherein the surface temperature of the blank is increased from room temperature to about 1200-1260 ℃ in the induction heating stage; in the forging stage, the surface temperature is gradually reduced from 1260 ℃ to below 900 ℃; in the heat treatment stage, the temperature is up to 890 ℃. In the three stages, the surface decarburization condition is gradually deepened due to the fact that the surface of the blank or the forging is in a high-temperature state, and the practice proves that the decarburization caused in the heat treatment stage is lighter, and the surface decarburization of the rest part below is lightened because the surface of the forging is also taken away by the fallen oxide skin although the oxide skin is generated by the combustion of natural gas and oxygen at the relatively lower temperature. In the forging forming stage of the second stage, the whole process is in the open stage, and the increase of surface decarburization is unavoidable. So in order to reduce surface decarburization, the best strategy is to take measures during the induction heating phase of the blank in the first phase. The prior art has two methods for reducing surface decarburization, one is a method for adding a surface coating to a blank or a forging, and the method has higher cost and is not suitable for mass production occasions; another method is to charge inert gas such as nitrogen or alcohol into the hearth of the induction furnace in the induction heating stage to reduce the oxidation speed of the surface of the blank, as shown in fig. 1.
The method for filling inert gas into the hearth is suitable for the conditions of smaller forging, smaller induction furnace power and better sealing of the two ends of the hearth. In order to ensure the production beat, the high-power induction furnace consists of a plurality of sections of inductors, and in order to ensure the transmission of blanks, a plurality of press rolls are arranged in the middle of the inductors, so that the whole inductor is in a relative semi-open state, and the inflation method for isolating the forge piece from being contacted with air is difficult to achieve the expected effect.

The application is described in detail below with reference to the attached drawing figures:
the application relates to a method for reducing decarburization on the surface of a forging piece, which is characterized in that the temperature rising speed of the surface of a blank in a design sensor is controlled, the surface temperature of the blank is kept at about 900 ℃ in a first section of sensor or a sensor which occupies about 1/4 to 3/8 of the whole heating period at the initial stage of the blank entering an induction furnace, a low-temperature oxide skin protection layer is formed on the surface of the forging piece, then the temperature is gradually raised, and the surface temperature reaches about 1230 ℃ required by the process at the final stage.
The medium frequency induction furnace can be divided into an integrated induction furnace and a split induction furnace which can be controlled in a partition mode. For a split induction furnace which can be controlled in a partition mode, in order to meet the requirement of a temperature rise curve, the heating power of each partition can be simply adjusted. For the integrated intermediate frequency furnace, namely, each section of inductor of the induction furnace should be redesigned, the number of turns and the wire diameter of each section of inductor are redesigned under the condition of unchanged total power, the input power of a first section of inductor is reduced, the power of a subsequent section of inductor is properly increased, the surface temperature rise means of the blank is achieved, and the purpose of keeping the surface temperature of the initial stage at about 800-900 ℃ for as long as possible under the condition of meeting the temperature difference of a core meter is achieved. Experiments prove that the oxide scale formed at the intermediate temperature of 700-900 ℃ can protect the deepening of the internal decarburized layer.
Blank materials suitable for use in the present application: 42CrMoHA.
The chemical composition is shown in Table 1.

TABLE 1
According to multiple practical experiences, the application can completely realize the surface decarburization requirement when the content of each element is not necessarily the same as or close to the above table.
Examples:
blank size: phi 160mm x 980mm blank weight: 157kg
Eight sections of inductors of the integral medium-frequency induction heating furnace have total power: 3000KW;
frequency 490HZ;
the required beat: 65S/root;
blank heating temperature: 1230 ℃;
core surface temperature difference: (+ -50 ℃;
decarburization requirement: thickness of decarburized layer: less than or equal to 0.1mm;
the layout situation of the induction furnace to be improved is shown in fig. 2; the temperature rise curve of the induction furnace before modification is shown in fig. 3.
In fig. 3, the red line is a surface temperature rise curve; the blue line is the core temperature rise curve; the green line is the average temperature rise curve. Because the skin effect and temperature are below the curie point, in the first-section induction furnace, the surface temperature rapidly rises to above 1000 ℃ and is always in a high temperature state after that, making the surface decarburization phenomenon particularly serious.
FIGS. 4, 5 and 6 show that the thickness of the decarburized layer at the prescribed position of the three samples before the improvement of the inductor is 0.18 to 0.3mm. It is obvious that the decarburized layer is far higher than the process requirement.

2. According to the set temperature rise curve, the power of each section of inductor is distributed, the number of turns of the coil of each section of inductor is calculated, the result is shown in table 2, and table 2 is the data of each section of inductor of the 3000KW induction furnace designed according to the temperature rise curve in the example.

3. Simulating the surface and core temperature of the blank heating process according to experience or iHaz software, and if the core surface temperature difference meets the design requirement and the surface temperature is close to an ideal surface temperature rise curve, starting to manufacture the inductor; if the surface temperature does not meet the requirement, repeating the steps 1-2 until the requirement is met. The newly manufactured inductor is used for actually heating the forging, the surface temperature of each stage in the heating process is measured, and compared with an ideal surface temperature rise curve, the surface temperature rise curve is used for verifying the design effect.
4. Cutting an actual sample forging, taking a metallographic photograph of a surface decarburized layer of a process required point, and observing whether the surface decarburized layer meets the requirement of the thickness dimension of the decarburized layer.
5. For the integrated induction furnace, the cooperation between the total inductance of the inductor and the compensation capacitor should be paid attention to when the inductor is designed, so that the resonance frequency of the induction furnace is ensured to meet the requirement of the heating thickness caused by the skin effect and to be suitable for reality.
6. For an intermediate frequency power supply that can be controlled in zones, the power and frequency settings for all zones from front to back can be adjusted according to the ideal temperature rise curve of fig. 5. And finally, the surface temperature of the actual blank is close to an ideal temperature rise curve.

The application provides another embodiment, a device for reducing the surface decarburization of a forging piece, which comprises an induction furnace and a compression roller;
the induction furnaces are divided into an integrated induction furnace and a partition-controlled induction furnace;
integrated induction furnace: each section of the inductor of the whole induction furnace is controlled by a single power supply. Once the inductor design and manufacture is completed, the power ratio of each inductor is fixed, and the corresponding surface temperature rise curve is also fixed. The internal power duty cycle cannot be adjusted during use.
The split induction furnace with the partition control comprises a plurality of partitions, wherein each partition comprises one or more sections of inductors, and each partition is controlled by a separate power supply.
The power and the frequency of each partition can be set according to the process requirement in the use process;
the high-power induction furnace has longer furnace type and can be designed into an integrated multi-section inductor or a plurality of inductor groups controlled in a partitioning way; the interior of each inductor is designed to have a uniformly arranged turn pitch.
Because the furnace type of the low-power induction furnace is shorter, the low-power induction furnace is designed into an integrated one-section at most two-section inductor, and in order to realize power distribution change, the front-back turn intervals are designed to be different in the same section of inductor, so that the power distribution of each front part and each back part is adjusted, and the requirement of meeting a temperature rise curve is met.
Eight sections of sensors are arranged.
The three press rolls are respectively a first press roll, a second press roll and a third press roll.
The compression roller in the middle of the induction furnace is a relay power source designed for facilitating the blank transmission of the high-power induction furnace. The arrangement of the middle press roller accelerates the surface decarburization. The induction furnace with small power and composed of a two-section inductor is not provided with an intermediate compression roller.
