Abstract

The proposal is for a process for enamelling annealed endless steel strips by coating them with powder and subsequently stoving the, in which the strips are coated with powder immediately after the annealing process and then stoved.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Emailbeschichten mittels Pulverbeschichtung und anschließendem Einbrennen von durch Glühbehandlung veredelten endlosen Stahlbändern.The invention relates to a method for enamel coating by means of powder coating and subsequent baking of endless steel strips finished by annealing.

Aus der DE-PS 35 36 040 ist ein Verfahren zur beidseitigen Beschichtung mit einer Grundemail- und einer mindestens auf einer Seite darauf aufzubringenden Deckemailschicht von über Rollen geführten Bändern im berührungsfreien kontinuierlichen Durchlauf durch Einbrennöfen mit Heiz- und Kühlzonen bekannt, bei dem die Bänder zur Wärmebehandlung nach der Beschichtung jeweils vertikal in den Einbrennofen eingeführt und vertikal durch den Einbrennofen geführt werden. Bei diesem bekannten Verfahren wird auf die zugeführten kalten Stahlbänder, die gegebenenfalls in vorausgegangenen Verfahren durch Glühbehandlung veredelt oder auch beschichtet worden sind, ein Schlicker oder ein Pulver für die einzubrennende Emailschicht aufgebracht. In dem nachfolgenden Einbrennofen wird dann das Stahlband mit der Emailschicht erwärmt und gleichzeitig eingebrannt. Anlagen dieser Art sind nur für relativ geringe Ausstoßmengen ausgelegt. Ihr Energiebedarf ist im Hinblick auf die relativ geringen Durchsetzmengen hoch, da nicht nur das aufgebrachte Pulver bzw. der Schlicker, sondern auch das dem gegenüber vergleichsweise materialstarke Stahlband auf die Schmelztemperatur der Emailschicht gebracht werden muß. Bei dem bekannten Verfahren ist eine niedrige Einführungstemperatur der Stahlbänder Voraussetzung, da diese durch ein Schlickerbad und über Umlenkrollen geführt werden.DE-PS 35 36 040 discloses a method for coating on both sides with a base enamel layer and a cover enamel layer to be applied to it on at least one side of tapes guided over rollers in a non-contact continuous pass through baking ovens with heating and cooling zones, in which the tapes are used Heat treatment after coating is introduced vertically into the baking oven and guided vertically through the baking oven. In this known method, a slip or a powder for the enamel layer to be baked is applied to the cold steel strips supplied, which may have been refined or coated in previous processes by annealing. The steel strip with the enamel layer is then heated in the subsequent baking oven branded at the same time. Systems of this type are only designed for relatively small output quantities. Their energy requirements are high in view of the relatively low throughput quantities, since not only the powder or slip applied, but also that of the steel strip, which is comparatively strong compared to the material, must be brought to the melting temperature of the enamel layer. In the known method, a low insertion temperature of the steel strips is a prerequisite, since these are passed through a slip bath and over deflection rollers.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, ein Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art vorzuschlagen, bei dem mit vergleichsweise geringem Energiebedarf hohe Ausstoßmengen in entsprechenden Anlagen erzielt werden können, wobei wesensgleiche Anlagen nutzbar für eine derartige Beschichtung gemacht werden sollen.The object of the invention is to propose a method of the type mentioned in the introduction in which high output quantities can be achieved in corresponding systems with a comparatively low energy requirement, systems of the same nature being intended to be used for such a coating.

Gelöst wird diese Erfindungsaufgabe mit einem Verfahren gemäß Anspruch 1. Die Erfindung nutzt den Umstand, daß zu veredelnde Stahlbänder einer Glühbehandlung unterzogen werden müssen bei einer Temperatur, die beim anschließenden Emailbeschichten ein geeignetes Temperaturniveau darstellt. Die durch Glühbehandlung veredelten endlosen Stahlbänder werden daher in der gleichen Wärme im sofortigen Anschluß mit entsprechendem Pulver beschichtet und in einer anschließenden Einbrennstation wärmebehandelt. Es entfällt daher die Aufwärmung des Stahlbandes auf das notwendige Behandlungsniveau, so daß der Energiebedarf daher eine wesentliche Beschleunigung des Verfahrens ergibt.This object of the invention is achieved with a method according to claim 1. The invention makes use of the fact that steel strips to be refined have to be subjected to an annealing treatment at a temperature which represents a suitable temperature level in the subsequent enamel coating. The endless steel strips refined by annealing are therefore immediately coated with the same powder in the same heat and heat-treated in a subsequent baking station. There is therefore no need to heat up the steel strip to the necessary treatment level, so that the energy requirement results in a significant acceleration of the process.

Ein solches erfindungsgemäßes Verfahren ermöglicht die Nutzung wesensgleicher Anlagen, beispielsweise Feuerverzinkungs- oder Aluminierungsanlagen sowie auch Kontiglühanlagen, in denen lediglich hinter der Glühbehandlungsstation eine Beschichtungsstation mit anschließender Einbrennungsbehandlung einzufügen ist. Es können daher vorhandene Anlagen mit relativ geringen zusätzlichen Einrichtungen für die Durchführung des Verfahrens herangezogen werden, wodurch die Ausnutzbarkeit einer solchen Anlage erheblich höher werden kann und die Gesamtkosten für das fertige, mit Email beschichtete Band, reduziert werden.Such a method according to the invention makes it possible to use plants of the same nature, for example hot-dip galvanizing or aluminizing plants and also continuous annealing plants, in which a coating station with subsequent baking treatment is only to be inserted behind the annealing treatment station. It can therefore Existing systems with relatively few additional facilities can be used to carry out the process, which means that the usability of such a system can be considerably higher and the total costs for the finished strip coated with enamel can be reduced.

Emailbeschichtete veredelte Stahlbänder werden in zunehmendem Maße die üblichen kunststoffbeschichteten Stahlbänder ablösen, die wegen ihrer Nachteile bei Bränden und im Recycling in Zukunft nur noch in geringem Maße eingesetzt werden.Enamel-coated refined steel strips will increasingly replace the usual plastic-coated steel strips, which will only be used to a small extent in the future due to their disadvantages in the case of fires and recycling.

Zur Erfindung gehört auch der Vorschlag, die Stahlbänder nach der Glühbehandlung zunächst mit NE-Metallen oder entsprechenden Legierungen zu beschichten. Auch diese Zwischenbeschichtung erfolgt in der gleichen Wärme. Sie hat mitunter den Vorteil, daß die Emailbeschichtung nur einseitig erfolgen, die Grundemaillierung entfallen kann, und ein zusätzlicher anodischer Korrosionsschutz erreicht wird, bei Verwendung von zum Beispiel Aluminium- bzw. Aluminiumlegierungsbeschichtungen.The invention also includes the proposal to first coat the steel strips with non-ferrous metals or corresponding alloys after the annealing treatment. This intermediate coating also takes place in the same heat. It sometimes has the advantage that the enamel coating is carried out only on one side, the basic enamelling can be omitted, and additional anodic corrosion protection is achieved when using, for example, aluminum or aluminum alloy coatings.

Von Vorteil ist die Einbrennbehandlung in Vertikalöfen, die wegen des in solchen Anlagen vorhandenen Platzangebotes günstig unterzubringen sind.Burn-in treatment in vertical ovens is an advantage because they are cheap to accommodate due to the space available in such systems.
