Definitions
- the invention relates to a cold-rolled steel strip or sheet in thicknesses of 0,7 0.70 mm for electromagnetic applications with Si contents of at least 3.2% by weight and Al contents of less than 2% by weight, and a method for its manufacture.
- Cold strips or sheets produced on the basis of high-silicon FeSi steels are usually used as non-grain-oriented electrical sheets.
- non-grain-oriented electrical sheet here means products falling under DIN EN 10106 (“final annealed electrical sheet”) and DIN EN 10165 (“non-final annealed electrical sheet”). In addition, more anisotropic grades are included as long as they are not considered grain-oriented electrical sheets.
- the terms "steel strip for electromagnetic purposes” and “steel sheet for electromagnetic purposes” as well as “electrical steel strip” and “electrical sheet metal” are used synonymously in the following.
- FeSi steels with a maximum Si content of 3.5% by weight are usually used for the production of non-grain-oriented electrical sheets. FeSi steel alloys with such limited Si contents permit problem-free production in the usual way. In particular, by a limitation of the Si content to contents of ⁇ 3.0% by weight ensures that, in a conventional procedure, the sheet obtained is free of cracks after cold rolling.
- the melt is cast into a slab or thin slab.
- This primary material is then rolled into a hot strip in direct use without reheating or after cooling and reheating in a descaling, a pre-rolling and a hot rolling process, which is generally carried out in a multi-stand hot rolling mill.
- the hot strip is then subjected to a surface treatment which is usually carried out as pickling, which can be combined with annealing. If necessary, hot strip annealing is also carried out before the hot strip is cold rolled into cold strip. Finally, the strip is finally annealed or subjected to annealing with subsequent post-forming.
- EP 0 377 734 B1 describes a process for FeSi alloys in which, after the slab has been reheated, it is shaped at temperatures of not less than 600 ° C. and then used directly for further hot rolling or for reheating to temperatures of not less than 400 ° C followed by hot rolling. Cold rolling is then carried out to the final thickness. These process parameters are not specific for higher silicided alloys. Practice shows that when using the process steps known from EP 0 377 734 B1 for highly silicified FeSi alloys of the type processed according to the invention, no satisfactory work results can be achieved.
- a highly siliconized FeSi steel can be cold rolled by cold rolling at sheet temperatures in the range from 120 ° C to 350 ° C.
- the hot strip is produced, which can be processed in this way.
- the problem arises that, as the above-mentioned specialist articles and the applicant's own investigations have shown, the processing of highly silicated electrical steel is not independent of the parameters observed during hot strip processing. Practical tests have shown that, in the conventional production of hot strip with a Si content of more than 3.5% by weight and subsequent cold rolling under the conditions specified in EP 0 467 265 A2, cracking regularly occurred in the first cold rolling pass.
- the object of the invention was to provide a practically producible, cold-rolled steel sheet or strip suitable for electromagnetic applications with thicknesses of at most 0.70 mm and an Si content of 3.5% by weight and to create more and to name a process with which such a product can be manufactured inexpensively.
- this task is solved by a cold-rolled steel strip or sheet in thicknesses of ⁇ 0.70 mm for electromagnetic applications, which produces is made of a steel that contains (in% by weight) C: ⁇ 0.01%, Si: 3.2 - 7%, Al: ⁇ 2%, Mn: ⁇ 1%, balance iron and usual impurities, and after melting to form a starting material, such as a slab, a thin slab or a thin strip, which was then heated to a temperature T R > 1000 ° C and hot-rolled at a hot rolling end temperature T F of> 800 ° C to a hot strip is then cooled from a temperature T c of the hot strip of at least 750 ° C but less than 850 ° C to a temperature of less than 300 ° C at a cooling rate of at least 400 ° C / min, after cooling subjected to a surface treatment, such as mechanical descaling and / or pickling, after the surface treatment has been cold-rolled at a temperature T CR of not more than
- the solution to the above-mentioned object according to the invention is that the following steps are carried out when producing a cold-rolled steel strip or sheet for electromagnetic applications:
- a starting material such as a slab, a thin slab or a thin strip
- Cooling of the hot strip after the finish hot rolling starting from a temperature T c of the hot strip of at least 750 ° C but less than 850 ° C with a cooling rate ⁇ T / ⁇ t of at least 400 ° C / min to a temperature of less than 300 ° C .
- the invention is based on the knowledge that, based on a conventionally composed, highest content of silicon from -3.2% by weight to 7% by weight and Al contents of up to 2% by weight containing steel alloy while maintaining who uses conventional cold strip production steps to produce a high quality, especially crack-free cold strip, if
- the hot strip can be cooled immediately after the hot rolling. Otherwise, it must be waited for the rapid cooling to begin until the temperature of the hot strip has dropped to the range specified by the invention, within which the rapid cooling is to begin.
- the hot strip cooled according to the invention can be coiled into a coil at a suitable point in time of the production process before it is fed to the cold strip for further processing.
- the speed at which the hot strip is cooled rapidly after hot rolling is of particular importance. If the hot strip is further processed into cold strip within a period within which cold embrittlement does not yet occur even in the range of the lower limit of the cooling rate to be observed, then a crack-free cold-rolled steel product can be produced even at relatively low cooling rates.
- a longer period of time such as many days or weeks, elapses between hot strip production and cold rolling, a crack-free steel strip or sheet produced in accordance with the invention can still be safely produced for electromagnetic purposes by the fact that the
- Cooling rate ⁇ T / ⁇ t is at least 2000 ° C / min. With such a high cooling rate, the embrittlement effects to be expected with a longer storage period of the hot strip and a slower cooling can be avoided.
- the primary material is preferably reheated at temperatures in the range from 1000 ° C. to 1190 ° C. in order to reliably avoid the formation of feyalite.
- a further essential feature of the invention consists in that during cold rolling the upper limit of the temperature of the processed strip, which is specified by the invention, is maintained within the scope of the tolerance that is unavoidable due to production. Basically, it is therefore favorable if the hot strip is at room temperature at the start of cold rolling.
- the heat development during cold rolling which is unavoidable as a result of the input of deformation energy should preferably be managed in such a way that temperatures of ⁇ 200 ° C are not exceeded. If cold rolling should nevertheless be carried out at elevated temperatures, taking into account the research results explained at the outset, these should be in the range of 200 ° C and 500 ° C.
- the time provided for preheating the hot strip before hot rolling should be limited to less than 20 minutes in order to avoid structural changes which would otherwise occur. These cause embrittlement.
- the invention is suitable for the production of electrical sheets located in the lower region of the steels containing the highest silicon, 4.0-5.0% by weight Si, for the production of more than 5.0 wt.% Located in the middle region of the steels containing the highest silicon. % Of electrical sheets containing Si and for the production of 6.0 - 6.8% by weight of electrical sheets located in the upper region of the high-silicon steels.
- the Al content the range of unavoidable impurities.
- the slabs have been reheated to a reheating temperature T R , pre-rolled and finally hot-rolled in a hot rolling mill comprising seven rolling stands at a hot rolling end temperature T F to a hot strip with a thickness WB D.
- the hot strip is at a temperature of at least 400 ° C / min
- Cooling rate ⁇ T / ⁇ t was cooled as soon as its temperature T c was in the range from 750 ° C to 850 ° C.
- the hot strip cooled to room temperature in this way is then subjected to a mechanical pretreatment of its surfaces and then pickled.
- some of the hot strips produced in the manner described above have been heated to a temperature T CR within a time t CR .
