Abstract

Bei einem Verfahren zum Herstellen von Vormaterial, beispielsweise von Draht oder Stabmaterial wird ein Stahl mit 0,08 bis 0,25% Kohlenstoff, bis 1% Silizium, 0,5 bis 2,5% Mangan, bis 0,035% Phosphor, bis 0,055% Schwefel, 0,1 bis 1.5% Chrom, 0,1 bis 0,5% Molybdän, 0,2 bis 1,5% Nickel, bis 0,06% Aluminium, 0,0010 bis 0.0060% Bor, jeweils bis 0,040% Titan, Vanadium und Niob. bis 0,5% Kupfer und 0,010% Stickstoff durch Warmverformen und anschließendes Abkühlen an Luft auf ein martensitisch-bainitisches Gefüge eingestellt. Das auf diese Weise aus der Umformhitze hergestellte Vormaterial besitzt eine hohe Festigkeit und Zähigkeit; eine Wärmebehandlung zum Einstellen der mechanischen Eigenschaften ist daher nicht erforderlich.In a method for producing a starting material, for example wire or rod material, a steel with 0.08 to 0.25% carbon, up to 1% silicon, 0.5 to 2.5% manganese, up to 0.035% phosphorus, up to 0.055% Sulfur, 0.1 to 1.5% chromium, 0.1 to 0.5% molybdenum, 0.2 to 1.5% nickel, to 0.06% aluminum, 0.0010 to 0.0060% boron, each up to 0.040% titanium , Vanadium and niobium. adjusted to 0.5% copper and 0.010% nitrogen by hot deformation and subsequent cooling in air to a martensitic-bainitic structure. The starting material produced from the forming heat in this way has a high strength and toughness; a heat treatment for adjusting the mechanical properties is therefore not required.
