Definitions

  • the present invention relates to processes for treating steel parts, and more particularly to carbonitriding processes, that is to say introducing carbon and nitrogen at the surface of steel parts to improve its performance. hardness and fatigue resistance.
  • a first category of carbonitriding processes corresponds to so-called high-pressure carbonitriding processes insofar as the enclosure containing the workpieces is maintained at a pressure generally close to atmospheric pressure for the duration of the treatment.
  • Such a process consists, for example, in maintaining the parts at a temperature level, for example at about 880 ° C., while supplying the enclosure with a gaseous mixture consisting of methanol and ammonia.
  • the carbonitriding step is followed by a quenching step, for example an oil quenching, and optionally a hardening step of the treated parts.
  • a second category of carbonitriding processes corresponds to so-called low pressure or reduced pressure carbonitriding processes, insofar as the enclosure containing the workpieces is maintained at a pressure generally less than a few hundred pascals (a few millibars).
  • the figure 1 corresponds to the Figure 5 (a) demand US 2004/0187966 and represents a temperature evolution curve in the enclosure of an oven in which a carbonitriding process is carried out according to a first embodiment comprising seven successive stages I to VII.
  • the workpieces are heated (step I) to a temperature step 12 and held at temperature plateau 12 (step II) to achieve room temperature equalization.
  • a carburising step (step III) is carried out at the temperature step 12 by injecting into the chamber a gaseous mixture of ethylene and hydrogen and is followed by a diffusion step (step IV) carried out at temperature step 12.
  • the temperature in the chamber is then lowered (step V) to a temperature step 14 below the temperature step 12.
  • a nitriding step (step VI) is performed at temperature step 14 by injecting ammonia in the enclosure.
  • the pieces are finally quenched (stage VII), for example by quenching with oil.
  • the figure 2 corresponds to the Figure 5 (b) demand US 2004/0187966 and represents a curve 16 for changing the temperature in the enclosure of an oven in which a carbonitriding process is carried out according to a second exemplary embodiment comprising four successive stages I 'to IV'.
  • Steps I 'and II' respectively correspond to steps I and II of the first exemplary embodiment.
  • Stage III ' corresponds to a carbonitriding step, carried out at a temperature step 18, during which a gaseous mixture of ethylene, hydrogen and ammonia is injected into the enclosure of the furnace.
  • Step IV ' corresponds to an oil quenching step.
  • a disadvantage of the first example of carbonitriding process described in the publication US 2004/0187966 is that the nitriding step is performed after the carburizing step at a temperature step below the carburizing temperature plateau.
  • the total duration of the treatment can therefore be excessively long, which makes it difficult to use such a method in an industrial context.
  • a disadvantage of the second example of carbonitriding process described in the publication US 2004/0187966 is due to the fact that carburizing and nitriding gases are injected simultaneously into the furnace chamber. It is then difficult to precisely control the gaseous environment that prevails in the chamber, and, therefore, to control, in a precise and reproducible manner, the nitrogen and carbon concentration profiles obtained in the treated parts.

  • the temperature plateau is between 800 ° C and 1050 ° C.
  • the temperature plateau is greater than 900 ° C.
  • the present invention consists in producing in an enclosure, containing steel parts to be treated maintained at a substantially constant temperature, an alternation of carbon enrichment stages during which a carburizing gas is injected into the chamber under a reduced pressure. and carbon diffusion steps during which the injection of the carburizing gas is interrupted.
  • the present invention consists in providing for the injection into the chamber of a nitriding gas during part of the carbon diffusion steps.
  • the carbon enrichment steps then correspond to nitrogen diffusion steps.

  • Step H is followed by a step PH equalizing the temperature of the parts constituting the load 16 at the temperature step 44.
  • the steps H and PH are performed in the presence of a neutral gas, to which a gas is optionally added. reducer.
  • the neutral gas is, for example, nitrogen (N 2 ).
  • the reducing gas for example hydrogen (H 2 )
  • H 2 hydrogen
  • the reducing gas may be added in a proportion varying within a range of 1% to 5% by volume of the neutral gas.
  • Step PH is followed by an alternation of carbon enrichment steps C1 to C4, during which a cementation gas is injected into the chamber 14, and carbon diffusion stages D1 to D4 during which the The carburizing gas is no longer injected into the chamber 14.

  • Injection of the nitriding gas can be performed only during some of the diffusion steps.

  • the relative proportions of the nitriding gas and the neutral gas are determined as a function of desired nitrogen concentration profile in the treated parts.
  • the relative proportions of the nitriding gas and the neutral gas may be different for each diffusion step during which nitriding gas and neutral gas are simultaneously injected into the chamber 14.
  • certain gases injected into the chamber 14 of the furnace 10 may be mixed before the injection into the chamber 14.
  • Such a variant makes it possible, for example, during the temperature rise steps H and of equalization of temperature PH, to inject directly into the chamber 14 a mixture of nitrogen and hydrogen of the type containing a proportion of hydrogen of less than 5% by volume, such a proportion of hydrogen excluding any risk of 'explosion.
  • the carbonitriding process is carried out without pressure variation and the injections, carburizing gas and nitriding gas (and / or optionally neutral gas), during the steps of enrichment and diffusion, are successive and the substitution between the carburizing gas and the nitriding gas (and / or possibly the neutral gas) is likely to occur very quickly.

  • the Applicant has shown that the injection of ammonia during the diffusion steps allows an enrichment of the carburized layer of nitrogen to a depth of several hundred micrometers.

  • Injecting the nitriding gas only during the carbon diffusion stages allows better nitrogen and carbon enrichment of the treated parts and allows to obtain, in a precise and reproducible way, the carbon and carbon concentration profiles. desired nitrogen. Indeed, if the nitriding gas is injected simultaneously with the carburizing gas, there is a dilution of the carburizing gas and the nitriding gas. This is not a factor favoring the reaction of carbon from the carburising gas or the reaction of the nitrogen from the nitriding gas with the parts to be treated, which slows the enrichment of the parts in nitrogen and carbon.
  • the control of the gaseous environment in the chamber 14 can hardly be carried out accurately, which makes it more difficult to obtain accurately and reproducibly, desired nitrogen and carbon component concentration profiles.
  • the diffusion of nitrogen in steel parts being, for the same processing conditions, faster than the diffusion of carbon, the injection of the nitriding gas and the cementation gas at different stages makes it possible to modify more easily the injection time of each gas while ensuring the maintenance of a constant pressure in the chamber 14.
