Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a molded component having at least two microstructures of different ductility from a component blank made of hardenable steel, which is partially heated differently and then formed in a thermoforming and hardening tool and partially cured and an infrared lamp array.
  • thermoforming and press hardening Both preformed components and flat blanks can be thermoformed and press-hardened. With preformed components, the molding process can also be limited to forming a few percent of the final geometry or calibrating.
  • molded components are intended to have high strength over certain regions, and in turn to have higher ductility in relation to other regions.
  • the semi-finished product to be heated simultaneously passes through at least two zones of the continuous furnace with different temperature levels arranged next to each other in the direction of passage and is heated to different degrees so that at least two microstructures with different ductility are produced during a subsequent hardening process .
  • the continuous furnace according to the invention is accordingly provided with at least two adjacent zones in the passage direction, which are separated from each other by a partition, that a workpiece passing through the furnace is both partially in zone 1 and partially in zone 2 and in both zones a separate temperature control is possible.
  • this multi-zone furnace is a special furnace for partially heated components.
  • the component blank must experience a defined heat input. All areas which are to undergo as complete structural transformation as possible in martensite due to curing must first have been heated to a temperature greater than or equal to the AC 3 point of the alloy. In the following, these are the areas of the first type. Areas which are not or will not be fully cured, hereinafter referred to as second-type areas, must not be heated to a temperature above AC 3 . For the press hardening process, it would be sufficient if the second type areas had room temperature. This would be energetically the cheapest option, but steel at room temperature has a much lower forming capacity than heated steel.
  • the steel is heated in the areas of the second kind, especially since common hot-forming steel springs back after cold forming, which has a negative effect on the tolerances to be observed.
  • too high a temperature gradient between the first type regions and the second type regions after curing can lead to stress in the transition region.
  • the second-type regions are heated to a temperature up to at most the AC 1 point of the alloy. After exceeding the AC 1 point already begins a partial structure transformation, which can also lead to a Clausmartensit Bear after curing, which is not desirable.
  • heating with the infrared lamps should not take too long. Therefore, the starting temperature for the lamp heating by means of infrared should be as high as possible. Consequently, the entire component is preferred heated to a homogeneous temperature up to the AC 1 point of the alloy in a continuous furnace and then rearranged under the infrared lamp array to heat the areas of the first type above AC 3 . Meanwhile, the areas of the second kind are not irradiated with infrared or merely kept at their temperature. In this way, the heating by means of infrared is fast enough to ensure the production sequence in the press cycle. If the heating of the areas of the first kind by means of infrared to above AC 3 is slower than the pressing cycle, two or more infrared lamp fields must be used.
  • the component blank as a whole is heated to a homogeneous temperature of less than AC 3 but greater than AC 1 of the alloy and then transferred to the infrared lamp array under which the areas of the first type are heated above AC 3 .
  • a mixed structure occurs, which is located between the properties of the initial structure and the properties of the hard structure. This mixed structure may be advantageous for certain applications.
  • the component parameters can therefore be flexibly adjusted as required by a power control of the infrared lamps.
  • the process is particularly suitable for thermoforming of a steel alloy, expressed as a percentage by weight Carbon (C) 0.18% to 0.3% Silicon (Si) 0.1% to 0.7% Manganese (Mn) 1.0% to 2.5% Phosphorus (P) max. 0.025% Chromium (Cr) up to 0.8% Molybdenum (Mo) to 0.5% Sulfur (S) max. 0.01% Titanium (Ti) 0.02% to 0.05% Boron (B) 0.002% to 0.005% Aluminum (AI) 0.01% to 0.06%
  • Remaining iron and impurities caused by melting This is a boron-alloyed uncoated hot-forming steel.
  • a component blank of this steel is first heated homogeneously to at least 400 ° C, preferably to about 700 ° C and then heated in the areas of the first kind by means of infrared lamps to a temperature of about 930 ° C. Meanwhile, the second type areas are maintained at about 700 ° C.
  • the blank is fed to a thermoforming and hardening tool and molded and cured in the first type areas. This results in a partially cured, true to size, thermoformed component with defined properties in the respective areas.
  • the method is also applicable to a hot-forming steel provided with a metallic layer such as aluminum or zinc.
  • a hot-forming steel coated with an aluminum-containing layer must first be heated and alloyed to a temperature above the AC 3 point of the alloy in order to form a so-called intermetallic phase.
  • a hot-forming steel coated with aluminum must first be alloyed in a separate working step. This step would be best done at the steel manufacturer already in the production of the coil.
  • FIG. 1 schematically a hot forming line 1 according to the invention is shown.
  • a coil 2 with an uncoated hot-forming steel for example the steel grade described above, is continuously unwound and cut in a cutting station 3 to form a molding board 4.
  • the molding board 4 can optionally be cold preformed and / or trimmed in a molding station 5.
  • the cold forming is usually deep drawing at room temperature, the trimming is carried out as close to the final contour as possible.
  • the forming station 5 is optional and dependent on the complexity of the component geometry. It can also be completely eliminated.
  • the forming plate 4 is transferred directly to the heating station 6. In the heating station 6, the mold plate 4 is heated homogeneously to a temperature of less than AC 3 and then immediately transferred to the infrared lamps station 7.
  • the infrared lamps station 7 is shown here as a separate station. However, the infrared lamps can also be integrated, for example, in the heating station 6, for example in the end region.
  • the molding board 4 is heated in a first type area to a temperature above the AC 3 point of the alloy.
  • the second type regions remain at a temperature below AC 3 .
  • the areas of the second type are located at the respective ends of the forming board 4 and the area of the first type in the middle of the forming board 4.
  • the thus-preheated forming board 4 is then fed to a forced-cooled forming and hardening tool 8 and thermoformed in the station 8 and partially cured.
  • FIG. 3 shows the infrared lamps Station 7 from the Figures 1 and 2 in detail.
  • rod-shaped infrared lamps 71 are attached on a support 75 .
  • the infrared lamps 71 are controlled in the temperature fields 72 and 74 so as to hold the preformed and preheated member 41 lying on a support plate 76 in the end portions at 700 ° C, respectively.
  • the rod-shaped infrared lamps are controlled so that they heat the component 41 centered at 930 ° C.
  • the temperature fields 72, 73 and 74 are separated by bulkheads 77 and 78. With the bulkheads 77 and 78, the temperature distribution in the component 41 can be better controlled and the hardness values in the finished component can be set more accurately.
  • FIG. 4 After thermoforming and curing is from the component blank 41 FIG. 3 one in FIG. 4 shown partially cured B-pillar 42 emerged.
  • the B-pillar 42 is relatively ductile in the head region 43 and the pillar base 44.
  • In the middle area 47 is the B-pillar has been hardened and in the transition regions 45 and 46 from the hardened to the uncured region, a mixed structure has set.
  • FIG. 5 schematically shows a plan view of another embodiment 70 of an infrared lamp station.
  • the heated mold plate 4 stores.
  • the mold plate 4 is kept at a temperature of 700 ° C.
  • the mold plate 4 is heated to 930 ° C.
  • the temperature drops from 930 ° C to 700 ° C.
  • FIG. 6 shows a heating curve 110 of a first type region of a sheet. Shown is the temperature in ° C over time in seconds.
  • the curve area 11 shows the continuous heating of the sheet in a continuous furnace. Within just under 200 seconds, the entire sheet is heated homogeneously from room temperature to about 700 ° C. The sheet is then transferred at curve point 12 under an infrared lamp array and heated to about 1000 ° C within about 30 seconds. At point 13 the warming is completed.
