Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for producing a steel composite material and a steel composite material component which is produced according to this method.
  • Hardened steel components have the advantage, especially in the body shop of motor vehicles, that their excellent mechanical properties make it possible to create a particularly stable passenger cell without having to use components that would be much more massive and therefore heavier with normal strengths.
  • types of steel that can be hardened by quench hardening are used.
  • Such types of steel are, for example, boron-alloyed manganese carbon steels, the most widely used being the 22MnB5 or 20MnB8. However, other boron-alloyed manganese carbon steels are also used for this purpose.
  • the steel material In order to produce hardened components from these types of steel, the steel material must be heated to the austenitizing temperature (> AC3) and wait until the steel material is austenitized. Depending on the degree of hardness desired, partial or full austenitization can be achieved here.
  • a sheet steel blank is separated from a steel strip, e.g. Cut or punched and then deep-drawn into the finished component in a conventional, for example five-stage deep-drawing process.
  • This finished component is here Dimensioned slightly smaller in order to compensate for a subsequent thermal expansion during austenitizing.
  • the component produced in this way is then austenitized and then placed in a form hardening tool, in which it is pressed, but not or only slightly deformed, and the heat flows out of the component into the pressing tool as a result of the compression, at a rate above the critical hardening speed Speed.
  • the second, alternative method is the so-called press hardening, in which a blank is separated from a sheet steel strip, e.g. cut or punched, then the blank is austenitized and the hot blank is formed in a single-stage or multi-stage forming step and at the same time with a hardening speed above the critical hardening speed Speed is cooled.
  • metallic corrosion protection layers can be used, e.g. plates provided with zinc or an alloy based on zinc can be used.
  • Press hardening is also known as an indirect process and press hardening as a direct process. The advantage of the indirect process is that more complex workpiece geometries can be implemented.
  • the advantage of the direct process is that a higher degree of material utilization can be achieved.
  • the component complexity that can be achieved is lower, especially in the one-step forming process.
  • ready-formed and usually ready-perforated construction parts are passed through an oven and heated to austenitizing temperature during press hardening. These components are placed on furnace supports for transport.
  • the blanks must be conveyed through the furnace using chain conveyors or walking bars.
  • TPP Tailored Property Parts
  • Such components which are also referred to as Tailor Welded Parts (TWP), consist, for example, of a boron-manganese steel that can be hardened in the form or press hardening process, such as a 22MnB5 and, in addition, a microalloyed steel and other steels that are hardened show a different behavior compared to hardenable steels.
  • TWP Tailor Welded Parts
  • a press-hardened or form-hardened component has zones of different sheet metal thicknesses and thus also different properties.
  • Areas of different sheet metal thickness can also be made from different steel grades so that a thinner area consists of a first steel grade and a thicker area consists of a second steel grade, and both areas can also consist of one and the same steel grade.
  • edge carburization is carried out, the carbon diffusing into a workpiece from the outside, so that, depending on the carbon content, the edges can be hardened to a greater extent or by machining, in particular thermal treatment Edge decalcification is thereby compensated for again.
  • edge decarburization can be provided.
  • the corresponding temperature control and the corresponding gas control must be ensured in a relatively complex manner.
  • a steel sheet as a composite, the outer surfaces consisting of a different steel grade than the core.
  • three sheets for example a sequence of ABA, are rolled on top of one another, the A standing for steel grades that are located on the outer surface of the finished steel strip and the B for a steel quality that is embedded between the two outer steel grades.
  • the company ThyssenKrupp has published corresponding sandwich structures under the title BP3-Metall-Metallverbunde, whereby the outer sheets are high-carbon steels, while the inner steel sheet is a so-called low carbon steel.
  • This product is also known in reverse composition under the brand name Tribond®.
  • the high carbon content in one of the layers makes processing more difficult in production, especially during cold rolling.
  • WO 2017/054862 A1 a multilayer composite with an edge area and a core area is known, the edge area being designed to be softer and the total of carbon, silicon, manganese, chromium and nickel to be greater than 1.45% by weight.
  • chassis components with high operational stability consist of a multilayer composite and an optional remuneration consisting of flaring and tempering can be carried out.
  • a motor vehicle component is known from DE 10 2016 108836 A1, with so-called tailor-heated snow heating being carried out so that only certain areas are heated up quickly, the tensile strength R m preferably being 2000 MPa and thus 20 W> 6%. It can also be a multi-layer sheet, with an increased bending angle and optional partial annealing being disclosed here.
  • the object of the invention is to create a method for producing a steel composite material with which a steel composite material is obtained which has improved properties with regard to crash properties and formability.
  • a further object is to create a steel composite material which has improved crash properties and improved deformation properties.
  • edge decarburization for setting a strength / ductility profile is known, with the bending angle also being significantly increased here.
  • the optimum from bending angle to strength to yield limit comes up against a limit in spite of cladding layers with a higher-strength core.
  • the maximum or optimal performance can only be achieved in the resulting gradient material through an optimal structure of the composite material and ideal thermal conditioning of the individual layers. Accordingly, if the yield point or the strength properties are retained, the bending angle should be increased to improve the deformation properties.
  • a higher yield point and a higher strength should be achieved, with each layer being loaded to the maximum, with a higher bending angle being available at the same time and folding being made possible.
  • the possible edge materials should have a relatively low carbon content in order to improve the processability, i.e. the ductility in the edge area. These should contain little manganese and chromium and the loss of carbon should have little effect on the strength of the material. It also makes sense if the edge active substance contains few alloying elements and is therefore a so-called micro-alloyed steel. Steels of the following grades have proven to be suitable materials: 340LA; 420LA and conditionally 500LA. These are common material names that can be determined in the steel key, for example. The 340LA can also be found in ⁇ NORM EN 10346, for example. The designation can also be HX340LA or H340LA, the abbreviation in front of it denotes the various processing states and does not refer to the chemical composition itself.
  • Hardenable steels of the general alloy composition are also particularly suitable for the invention (all data in% by mass):
  • the remainder is iron and impurities from the melting process.
