Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for producing a high-strength, cold-formed steel product from a hot strip with good formability.
- This formability can be according to the
- the hot strip treated in this way is suitable for cold rolling, in which a degree of deformation of at least 30% is achieved.
- a cold-formed sheet product of high strength, further improved yield strength ratio and good hardening behavior can be produced.
- this object is achieved by a method for producing a high-strength, cold-formed product from a hot strip with good ductility, in which a steel with (in% by weight) 0.01-0.25% C, 0.01-1.50% Si, 0.50-2.00% Mn, ⁇ 0.08% P, ⁇ 0.01% S, 0.001
- Microalloying elements remain essentially dissolved, hot-rolled to hot strip, in which the hot strip is coiled at a coiling temperature of less than 600 ° C., in which the hot strip is then cold-formed into a product with a degree of cold deformation of at least 2% and at most corresponding to the limit deformation, and in which the product produced by cold working at temperatures and times below that for the complete
- the temperatures and times required for recrystallization are annealed.
- the invention is based on the surprising finding that the strength-increasing properties of the microalloying elements contained in steels according to the invention are activated when the hot strip is produced according to the invention by annealing the product obtained from the hot strip after coiling by cold deformation, and cold-formed products with particularly high strengths and one Allow good forming properties to be produced even in the cold-formed state, without requiring a technically complex remuneration.
- the method according to the invention is particularly suitable for producing components whose dimensional and dimensional stability are just as demanding as their strength in use.
- a typical example of such an application are frames for screens which have to hold the shadow mask in a tube of television sets or computer monitors due to the heat load during their assembly and their operation under uniform tension in a defined level.
- the required high strength is then given to the cold-formed component in the course of the heat treatment carried out according to the invention after the cold-forming, so that the result is an exactly shaped, high-strength component with a high yield strength. Additional compensation, which can lead to warpage of the component and impairment of the surface, is then no longer necessary.
- the steel alloy used according to the invention comprises steel compositions from which, depending on the particular composition and the production conditions, dual-phase steels, bainitic steels or complex-phase steels can be produced.
- the aim is to have steels with a fine-grained, multi-phase structure, in which bainite, ferrite, martensite and residual austenite are contained, depending on the respective type of steel.
- this starting material After a starting material has been produced from a steel with a composition used according to the invention, this starting material is hot-rolled into hot strip.
- the hot rolling starting temperature is chosen so that the micro-alloying elements remain largely dissolved in the steel so that they are available for the effects brought about in the last step of the method according to the invention.
- the initial rolling temperature should be at least 1050 ° C for this purpose.
- thin slab or thin strip casting processes are particularly suitable for the production of the primary material, with which it is possible with particular reliability due to the fact that there is no need to reheat the primary material or a solution of the microalloying elements and on the other hand the cooling rates of the strand can be high. the To keep micro-alloy elements largely dissolved until the start of the hot rolling process.
- the hot rolling end temperature should preferably be in the austenite region, that is to say above the Ar 3 temperature, in order to maintain the fine-grained, multi-phase structure sought after according to the invention.
- composition of the structure of the hot strip obtained is determined by the chemical properties, the heating, rolling and cooling conditions and the reel temperatures. It has been shown that the effect of increasing the strength and formability achieved with dual-phase steels achieved according to the invention is particularly reliable when the reel temperature is at most 300 ° C. In steels with a predominantly bainitic structure, this effect is reliably achieved at reel temperatures that are 350 ° C to 450 ° C. Complex phase steels should preferably be coiled at temperatures from 450 ° C to 550 ° C.
- steels of the type used according to the invention have a high strength of at least 550 N / mm 2 .
- the steels harden very strongly.
- the elongation decreases significantly, so that a product that is high-strength but difficult to deform is obtained.
- cold-formed components of this type have only a small forming reserve and a correspondingly reduced energy absorption capacity. As such, for example, they are only suitable to a limited extent for the production of components which are used as bumpers in crash endangered areas of an automobile.
- the yield strength of the steel used is further increased, on the one hand, by the fact that the product obtained is cold annealed.
- the annealing increases the elongation values almost to the level at which the ductility of the hot strip was before the cold working.
- the products that were originally difficult to form immediately after cold forming can be made into components that are not only high-strength but also have a high formability due to their good elongation properties. As such, they are suitable for those applications for which they were not suitable before the annealing treatment.
- Typical annealing temperatures during the annealing following the cold deformation are in the range from 450 ° C. to 700 ° C., preferably in the range from 550 ° C. to 650 ° C.
- the annealing time and annealing temperature are interchangeable to a limited extent. This means that at high temperatures only short holding times are required and vice versa. Accordingly, the heat treatment can be carried out as a separately carried out treatment step in a hood or in a continuous annealing. Annealing treatment in a conventional manner under conditions that would lead to complete recrystallization would nullify the effect achieved by the invention.
- This step can be, for example, a zinc coating or another method for coating or passivating the surface of the cold-formed product, which is carried out at the range of the temperatures provided for the annealing treatment.
- the degrees of deformation achieved in the course of cold deformation amount to at least 2% up to the change in limit shape, the effects achieved by the procedure according to the invention having an effect particularly when the degree of cold deformation is 5% to 20%, in particular 5% to 10%.
- Cold forming can be carried out, for example, as roll profiling, drawing, pressing or hydroforming. Cold rolling with relatively low degrees of deformation is also suitable for this.
- At least one of the elements Ti, Nb and / or V is used as the microalloying element in steel according to the invention.
- these elements can be added combined in amounts sufficient to trigger the excretion process effected at the end of the method according to the invention.
- it is particularly preferred to use Ti which is distinguished by a particularly favorable excretion behavior.
- Ti is used as the only microalloying element according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, its content should be at least 3.4 times the content of N in order to have a sufficient solution potential of the Ensure microalloying element.
- the Ti content of the steel for this purpose is preferably in the range 0.07 to 0.15% by weight, while the nitrogen content is preferably less than 0.007% by weight. With Ti contents of this size, the formation of fine deposits with a hardening effect is optimally supported.
- the Al content is preferably in the range from 0.015 to 0.08% by weight. or 0.5 to 1.5% by weight.
- a steel composed according to Table 1 was cast on a continuous casting plant to a pre-slab, which was then hot-rolled as a starting material at a temperature of 1125 ° C. in a hot strip mill to a hot strip.
- the hot rolling end temperature was 925 ° C.
- the reel temperature was 475 ° C. After coiling, the hot strip is pickled and delivered to a cold rolling mill in the pickled state.
- the plates of group G1 have not been subjected to any annealing following the cold deformation, while the plates of group G2 at 500 ° C, the plates of group G3 at 550 ° C, the plates of group G4 at 600 ° C and the plates Group G5 were annealed at 650 ° C in a bell-type furnace for one hour each and then cooled in air.
- the strength values obtained in each case are markedly improved compared to the only cold-formed and not heat-treated sheets Gl.l-G1.5.
- a uniform expansion Agi is achieved by the heat treatment carried out after the cold deformation, which corresponds approximately to the uniform expansion Agi of the non-cold-formed and non-heat-treated sheet Gll.O. Accordingly, the cold-formed and subsequently heat-treated steels produced according to the invention have particularly good formability and an equally good energy absorption capacity.
- Table 3 shows a second example of a steel composition used according to the invention.
- a correspondingly alloyed steel was melted and cast into slabs.
- the slabs are then reheated to a temperature of more than 1150 ° C and with a hot rolling temperature of at least 850 ° C has been hot rolled.
- T2.1 for one with a degree of cold deformation of 10 % only cold-rolled strip sample T2.2 and for a strip sample T2.3 cold-rolled in the manner according to the invention with a degree of cold deformation of 10%, then annealed for 30 minutes at 580 ° C. and then cooled in air
- the mechanical properties R p o, 2 , R m , Re / R m , A 5 , A so or A 80 have been determined.
- the determined values of the mechanical properties are given in Table 4.
- the steel composed according to the alloy specified in Table 5 was also melted and cast into slabs.
- these slabs were reheated to a temperature of more than 1150 ° C., with a hot rolling temperature of at least 850 ° C. and at a temperature of less than 600 ° C. Then six tape samples T3.0 to T3.5 were then taken.
- the strip sample T3.2 clearly shows that high-strength cold-formed sheet products can be obtained with the procedure according to the invention, which, as a comparison of the ductility values shows, are superior in their formability to the undeformed strip sample T3.0.
- the procedure according to the invention which, as a comparison of the ductility values shows, are superior in their formability to the undeformed strip sample T3.0.
- Another advantageous application of the method according to the invention consists in the production of galvanized side impact beams or other crash-relevant components for vehicle bodies.
- the respective component is cold formed from hot strip produced according to the invention, for example by a deep-drawing operation.
- the cold-formed component is then subjected to piece galvanizing at temperatures in the range of 470 ° C.
- the component is also kept at a temperature level at which the increase in ductility and strength achieved according to the invention occurs.
- the side impact beam obtained in this way has a particularly high energy absorption capacity due to its good elasticity and high strength, by means of which it converts a large part of the kinetic energy released in the event of a collision with another vehicle into deformation energy and that required for the survival of the occupants Can secure space.
