Description
Les moulistes et les transformateurs de matière plastique poussés par les exigences de l'industrie automobile et de l'industrie en général, par le développement des applications techniques "Plastique" dans le secteur automobile toujours plus important et par les défis technico-économiques croissants, ont de plus en plus besoin d'un acier pour moules permettant d'obtenir des moules ayant une dureté homogène sur son épaisseur (de 30 à 35 Hrc), épaisseur pouvant aller jusqu'à 700 mm voire plus.Mold makers and plastic processors driven by the demands of the automotive industry and industry in general, through the development of "Plastic" technical applications in the sector automotive increasingly important and by the challenges growing technical and economic, have more and more need a steel for molds to obtain molds with a uniform hardness over its thickness (from 30 at 35 Hrc), thickness up to 700 mm or even more.
Les délais de sortie d'un véhicule, toujours de plus en plus courts, posent également des problèmes en ce qui concerne la gérance des modifications en temps réel, l'usinabilité et la soudabilité.Vehicle exit times, always more and more shorter, also pose problems in terms of concerns the management of changes in real time, machinability and weldability.
EP-A-431 557 divulgue un acier pour moules grandes ayant une composition similaire à celui-la d'invention et depart de l'acier d'invention par une teneur en bore la plus basse possible.EP-A-431 557 discloses steel for large molds having a composition similar to that of invention and departure from steel invention by the lowest possible boron content.
La présente invention a pour objet un procédé de fabrication d'un acier pour moules de grandes dimensions qui permet d'obtenir un acier résolvant ces difficultés.The subject of the present invention is a method of manufacture of steel for large molds which makes it possible to obtain a steel solving these difficulties.
Ce procédé est caractérisé en ce que l'acier est obtenu
par fusion dans un four électrique, suivie d'une
opération métallurgique secondaire dans une poche
chauffante, cette opération étant elle-même suivie d'un
dégazage sous vide inférieur à 1 torr, voire de 0,2 torr,
d'un mélange ayant la composition pondérale suivante :
Le complément étant du fer et les impuretés caractéristiques de la fabrication de l'acier.The complement being iron and impurities characteristics of steel making.
On peut éventuellement soumettre le lingot obtenu après dégazage à une refusion par électrode consommable sous vide ou sous laitier, le lingot servant d'électrode consommable.The ingot obtained after may be submitted degassing at a reflow by consumable electrode under vacuum or under slag, the ingot serving as an electrode consumable.
On peut aussi soumettre le lingot à une première refusion sous vide et ensuite à une seconde refusion sous laitier. You can also submit the ingot to a first remelting under vacuum and then a second remelting under slag.
L'invention a également pour objet un acier pour moules
caractérisé en ce qu'il a la composition pondérale suivante.
Le complément étant du fer et les impuretés caractéristiques de la fabrication de l'acier.The complement being iron and impurities characteristics of steel making.
Dans l'acier selon l'invention les sulfures de manganèse sont de forme globulaire parfaitement répartis et les oxydes de forme globulaire sont encapsulés de préférence par des sulfures de calcium. Cet acier présente un double durcissement, un durcissement primaire par durcissement de la solution solide par insertion du Bore au cours de l'austénitisation et de la précipitation pendant la trempe de boro-carbures de type M23 (B.C)6; ces précipités très fins germent au cours de la trempe très énergique aux joints de grains de l'austénite du fait de leur structure cubique à faces centrées de paramètre a = 10,6 A°. Ces boro-carbures sont en relation d'orientation et en cohérence avec l'austénite de l'un des deux grains. Ce durcissement primaire est suivi d'un durcissement secondaire dû à une dispersion essentiellement de carbures, de nitrures, de carbo-nitrures fins de Niobium précipités de façon homogène au cours d'un revenu. Le Niobium, élément dispersoïde essentiel, introduit dans le cadre de l'élaboration de l'acier selon l'invention intervient dans le contrôle de la taille des grains, aussi bien lors du réchauffage que pendant les phénomènes de recristallisation; il augmente la trempabilité de l'acier selon l'invention et provoque un durcissement par précipitation. Le rôle du Niobium conjugué à celui du Bore est fondamental dans l'élaboration de l'acier selon l'invention et pour l'obtention des caractéristiques mécaniques évoquées ci-dessous.In the steel according to the invention the manganese sulfides are perfectly distributed globular and the globular oxides are preferably encapsulated by calcium sulfides. This steel has a double hardening, a primary hardening by hardening solid solution by insertion of Boron during austenitization and precipitation during the quenching of boro-carbides type M23 (B.C) 6; these very fine precipitates germinate during quenching very energetic at the grain boundaries of austenite due to their face-centered cubic structure of parameter a = 10.6 A °. These boro-carbides are in orientation relationship and in coherence with the austenite of one of the two grains. This primary hardening is followed by a hardening secondary due to a dispersion mainly of carbides, nitrides, fine carbo-nitrides of Niobium homogeneously precipitated during an income. The Niobium, an essential dispersoid element, introduced into the part of the production of the steel according to the invention intervenes in the control of grain size, both during reheating and during phenomena recrystallization; it increases the hardenability of the steel according to the invention and causes hardening by precipitation. The role of Niobium combined with that of Boron is fundamental in the development of steel according to the invention and for obtaining the characteristics mechanicals mentioned below.
L'acier selon l'invention possède une aptitude au grenage chimique à l'usinage, électro-érosif, excellente; il possède une aptitude au polissage de qualité (grain > 1200 suivi d'un polissage diamant grain de 8µ voire de 3µ ).Il peut être nitruré, dureté > 60 Rc.The steel according to the invention has a peening ability chemical to machining, electro-erosive, excellent; he has a quality polishing ability (grain> 1200 followed by a diamond polishing of 8µ or even 3µ ) .It can be nitrided, hardness> 60 Rc.
Les caractéristiques mécaniques obtenues sur le produit
traité par trempe et précipitation entre 400° C et 600° C
sont de :
Cet acier fait face à deux propriétés fondamentales pour les moules : polissabilité et grenabilité en grande partie liées à l'homogénéité de sa structure et au niveau de sa propreté inclusionnaire.This steel faces two fundamental properties for molds: polishability and granulability in large part linked to the homogeneity of its structure and level of its inclusive cleanliness.
Sa mise en forme est de préférence effectuée par transformation thermo-mécanique telle que forgeage ou laminage ou moulage dans tous les cas de figure.Its shaping is preferably carried out by thermo-mechanical transformation such as forging or rolling or molding in all cases.
