Description
本発明は、疲労特性、鍛造性を有し自動車部品や電気部品などの機械部品に好適な軸受け鋼に関し、特に転動体とする仕上げ研磨工程において加工性と研磨後の面性状に優れるものに関する。 The present invention relates to a bearing steel that has fatigue characteristics and forgeability and is suitable for machine parts such as automobile parts and electric parts, and particularly relates to a steel that is excellent in workability and surface properties after polishing in a final polishing process for rolling elements.
軸受部品の鋼球は軸受用の素材から冷間鍛造により成形後、バリ取り、焼入れ、焼き戻しを行い、研磨工程で所定の精度を有する製品に研磨される。研磨工程は粗研磨からラッピングと呼ばれる最終の仕上げ研磨まで複数の工程で構成されている。 The steel balls of the bearing parts are molded from a bearing material by cold forging, deburred, quenched, and tempered, and then polished into a product having a predetermined accuracy in a polishing process. The polishing step is composed of a plurality of steps from rough polishing to final finish polishing called lapping.
仕上げ研磨工程は部品精度や特性に最も影響を与える工程で、鋼球が2枚の研磨砥石板の間に挟まれて転がり、すこしずつ研削され、所望の真円度、うねりおよび表面粗度に加工されるが、長時間かかるため生産性の観点からは律速工程となっている。 The final polishing process is the process that has the greatest effect on the accuracy and characteristics of parts. The steel balls are sandwiched between two polishing wheel plates, rolled, ground, and processed to the desired roundness, waviness and surface roughness. However, since it takes a long time, it is a rate-limiting process from the viewpoint of productivity.
そのため、研磨性向上に関して種々の技術が提案されている。特許文献1は軸受用ステンレス鋼に関し、鋼材成分組成の規定によりAl2O3やSiO2の生成を抑制し、鋼材組織内における硬度差を小さくし高精度な加工を可能とする軸受用ステンレス鋼が記載されている。 Therefore, various techniques have been proposed for improving the polishing properties. Patent Document 1 relates to a stainless steel for bearings, which suppresses the generation of Al 2 O 3 and SiO 2 by regulating the composition of the steel material, reduces the hardness difference in the steel structure, and enables high-precision machining. Is described.
特許文献2には成分組成を規定した鋼において、硫化物系介在物の大きさと個数を規定した研磨特性に優れた線材が記載されている。冷間鍛造性を低下させずに、主にMnSにより被削性を向上させることを特徴とし、一定の大きさと個数のMnSで短時間での研磨を可能としている。 Patent Document 2 describes a wire rod having excellent polishing characteristics in which the size and number of sulfide inclusions are defined in steel in which the component composition is defined. It is characterized in that machinability is mainly improved by MnS without deteriorating cold forgeability, and polishing in a short time is possible with a certain size and number of MnS.
特許文献3は被研磨性に優れた軸受鋼に関し、Tiを主成分とする炭窒化物の大きさを圧延方向における長さで定義し、その大きさと個数を規定している。仕上げ研磨時の研削量を25μm以上の大きなTi系炭窒化物で抑制し、製品精度を向上させ、且つ研磨砥石の消耗も抑制し、研磨効率を向上させることを特徴としている。
上述した特許文献1記載の技術は、主に切削加工の加工精度向上を発明の課題とするものであり、また特許文献2および3記載の技術は主に研磨の生産性向上を発明の課題とするものであり、最適な研磨に要する時間を短縮することを目的としている。 The technique described in Patent Document 1 described above mainly aims to improve the machining accuracy of the cutting process, and the techniques described in Patent Documents 2 and 3 mainly consider improvement in the productivity of polishing. The purpose is to reduce the time required for optimum polishing.
しかしながら、研磨工程は軸受製造の最終工程であるため、製品の表面性状を高い精度の鏡面に仕上げることが要求される。 However, since the polishing process is the final process of bearing production, it is required to finish the surface texture of the product to a mirror surface with high accuracy.
すなわち、研磨性は切削加工時の加工精度や研磨に要する時間のみでは評価できず、表面粗度、光沢の観点からの評価も重要である。光沢のある表面性状を得るには、目つぶれして研磨代が少なくなった研磨砥石を用いて研磨を行う必要があるため、一般的に研磨効率と表面光沢の両立は困難とされている。 That is, the abrasiveness cannot be evaluated only by the processing accuracy at the time of cutting and the time required for polishing, and evaluation from the viewpoint of surface roughness and gloss is also important. In order to obtain a glossy surface property, it is necessary to perform polishing using a polishing grindstone that is clogged and has a small polishing allowance. Therefore, it is generally difficult to achieve both polishing efficiency and surface gloss.
そこで、本発明は軸受鋼として基本的な特性である優れた疲労特性、鍛造性を保持することを前提に、仕上げ研磨工程においては高加工性、高能率で、製品とした場合に優れた表面光沢を得ることができる軸受鋼を提供することを目的とする。 Therefore, the present invention is based on the premise of maintaining excellent fatigue characteristics and forgeability, which are basic characteristics of bearing steel, and has excellent workability and efficiency in the finish polishing process, and an excellent surface when used as a product. An object is to provide a bearing steel capable of obtaining gloss.
本発明者等は、上記目的達成のため、鋼中介在物が研磨性に及ぼす影響について鋭意検討を行った。その結果、TiNの大きさと個数が研磨性、すなわち、研磨作業の能率と研磨後の表面粗度に大きな影響を与えることを見出した。 In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present inventors diligently studied the influence of inclusions in steel on the abrasiveness. As a result, it has been found that the size and number of TiN greatly affect the polishing properties, that is, the efficiency of the polishing operation and the surface roughness after polishing.

本発明によれば、疲労特性、鍛造性に優れ、転動体とする仕上げ研磨工程において高加工性を有し、高能率な研磨が可能で研磨後の表面粗度に優れる軸受鋼が得られ産業上極めて有用である。 According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain a bearing steel that has excellent fatigue characteristics and forgeability, has high workability in the finish polishing step to be a rolling element, enables high-efficiency polishing, and has excellent surface roughness after polishing. It is extremely useful.
以下に本発明の限定理由を説明する。なお、成分組成における各元素の含有量(%)は全て(質量%)を意味する。
[成分組成]
C
Cは軸受鋼として必要な強度を確保するために必要で0.6%未満では所定の強度が確保できない。一方、1.5%を超えると軟質化が困難で冷間鍛造性が著しく低下し、鍛造後の熱処理において割れなどの欠陥が生じやすくなるため、0.6〜1.5%とする。
The reason for limitation of the present invention will be described below. In addition, all content (%) of each element in a component composition means (mass%).
[Ingredient composition]
C
C is necessary for securing the strength required for bearing steel, and if it is less than 0.6%, the predetermined strength cannot be secured. On the other hand, if it exceeds 1.5%, softening is difficult and the cold forgeability is remarkably lowered, and defects such as cracks are likely to occur in the heat treatment after forging, so 0.6 to 1.5%.
Mn
Mnは脱酸に必要な元素であり、固溶強化により疲労特性の向上に必要なため、0.2%以上とする。一方、1.5%を超えると冷間鍛造性が著しく低下するため0.2〜1.5%とする。
Mn
Mn is an element necessary for deoxidation, and is required for improving fatigue characteristics by solid solution strengthening, so is 0.2% or more. On the other hand, if it exceeds 1.5%, the cold forgeability is remarkably deteriorated, so the content is made 0.2 to 1.5%.
Si
Siは脱酸に必要な元素であり、0.05%未満では所望の効果が得られない。一方、1.2%を超えると疲労寿命などの機械的特性や特に冷間鍛造性の低下が著しくなるため0.05〜1.2%とする。
Si
Si is an element necessary for deoxidation, and if it is less than 0.05%, a desired effect cannot be obtained. On the other hand, if it exceeds 1.2%, the mechanical properties such as fatigue life and particularly the cold forgeability are significantly deteriorated.
Cr
Crはセメンタイトの形成を著しく促進したり、パーライトラメラー間隔およびパーライト粒を細かくする効果を有し、適正な炭化物球状化組織として疲労特性を向上させるため、0.5%以上とする。一方、2.5%を超えて添加しても、その効果が飽和し、むしろ疲労強度や延性などに悪影響を与えるため0.5〜2.5%とする。
Cr
Cr has the effect of remarkably promoting the formation of cementite, and having the effect of reducing the pearlite lamellar spacing and pearlite grains, and improving fatigue characteristics as an appropriate carbide spheroidized structure, so 0.5% or more. On the other hand, even if added in excess of 2.5%, the effect is saturated, but the fatigue strength and ductility are adversely affected.
Ti
TiはNと結合してTiN介在物となり、鋼中に適正に存在する場合、研磨性を向上させる。Tiが0.002%未満では有効なTiNが少なく研磨性が向上しない。一方、0.020%超えでは、TiNが過剰となり研磨性が低下、研磨の進行が抑制されるようになり、また疲労特性も顕著に低下するため、0.002〜0.020%とする。
Ti
Ti combines with N to form TiN inclusions, and improves the abrasiveness when properly present in the steel. If Ti is less than 0.002%, the effective TiN is small and the polishing property is not improved. On the other hand, if it exceeds 0.020%, TiN becomes excessive, the polishing property is lowered, the progress of polishing is suppressed, and the fatigue characteristics are also markedly lowered, so 0.002 to 0.020%.
N
NはTiと結合してTiN介在物として鋼中に存在する。Nが0.008%を超えるとTiNが粗大化して研磨性に寄与せず、疲労強度を低下させる。また、過剰なNは鋼中に固溶限界量まで固溶し、冷間鍛造性を低下させるため、0.008%以下とする。
N
N combines with Ti and exists in the steel as TiN inclusions. If N exceeds 0.008%, TiN becomes coarse and does not contribute to polishing properties, and fatigue strength is reduced. Further, excessive N is dissolved to the solid solution limit amount in the steel and lowers the cold forgeability, so it is made 0.008% or less.
Al
AlはSiと同様に脱酸に必要な元素であり、0.01%以上とする。一方、0.03%を超えると疲労寿命などの機械的特性や特に冷間鍛造性の低下が著しくなるため0.01〜0.03%とする。
Al
Al is an element necessary for deoxidation like Si, and is 0.01% or more. On the other hand, if it exceeds 0.03%, the mechanical properties such as fatigue life and particularly the cold forgeability are significantly deteriorated, so the content is made 0.01 to 0.03%.
Ti/N
Ti/Nが化学量論比(=3.4)以下では、TiNは10μm以下の微細な介在物となり鋼中に分散し、研磨性や疲労強度を向上させる。一方、化学量論比(=3.4)を超すと10μmを超えるTiNが存在するようになり、研磨性向上の効果が飽和し、疲労強度も低下するようになるため3.4以下とする。
Ti / N
When Ti / N is less than or equal to the stoichiometric ratio (= 3.4), TiN becomes fine inclusions of 10 μm or less and is dispersed in the steel, improving the polishing properties and fatigue strength. On the other hand, if the stoichiometric ratio (= 3.4) is exceeded, TiN exceeding 10 μm will be present, the effect of improving the polishability will be saturated, and the fatigue strength will also be reduced, so that it will be 3.4 or less. .
尚、本発明では、P,S、Oは不可避的不純物として扱う。P、Sは鋼の粒界に偏析し、鋼を脆化させるため、含有量は少ないほど良く、好ましくはP≦0.03%、S≦0.02%とする。 In the present invention, P, S, and O are treated as inevitable impurities. P and S segregate at the grain boundaries of the steel and embrittle the steel. Therefore, the smaller the content, the better. P ≦ 0.03% and S ≦ 0.02% are preferable.
Oは鋼中でAl,SiとAl2O3やSiO2などの酸化物系介在物を生成し、転動疲労強度を大幅に低減させるため、含有量は少ないほど好ましく、20ppm以下とすることが好ましい。 O generates Al, Si and oxide inclusions such as Al 2 O 3 and SiO 2 in steel and greatly reduces the rolling fatigue strength. Therefore, the smaller the content, the less the content, and 20 ppm or less. Is preferred.
以上が本発明の基本的な成分組成であるが、更に軸受鋼としての特性を向上させる場合、Cu,Ni,Moの一種または二種以上を添加することができる。 The above is the basic component composition of the present invention. In the case of further improving the characteristics as a bearing steel, one or more of Cu, Ni, and Mo can be added.
Cu
Cuは鋼の焼入れ性を高めるので、軸受に加工後の強度を向上させる。添加する場合は0.2%を超えて添加すると圧延ままでもベイナイトやマルテンサイトが生成し鍛造性が低下するので0.2%以下とする。
Cu
Since Cu enhances the hardenability of steel, it improves the strength of the bearing after processing. When adding over 0.2%, bainite and martensite are generated even in the rolled state and forgeability is lowered, so the content is made 0.2% or less.
Ni
Niは鋼の焼入れ性を高めるので、軸受に加工後の強度を向上させる。添加する場合は0.2%を超えて添加すると圧延ままでもベイナイトやマルテンサイトが生成し鍛造性が低下するので0.2%以下とする。
Ni
Ni enhances the hardenability of the steel, so it improves the strength of the bearing after processing. When adding over 0.2%, bainite and martensite are generated even in the rolled state, and the forgeability deteriorates, so the content is made 0.2% or less.
Mo
Moは鋼の焼入れ性を高めるので、軸受けに加工後の強度を向上させる。添加する場合は0.1%を超えて添加すると圧延ままでもベイナイトやマルテンサイトが生成し鍛造性が低下するので0.1%以下とする。
Mo
Mo increases the hardenability of the steel, thus improving the strength of the bearing after processing. When adding over 0.1%, bainite and martensite are formed even in the rolled state and forgeability is lowered, so the content is made 0.1% or less.
[TiN]
本発明では鋼中のTiNの大きさと分布状態を規定する。粒径が10μm超えであるTiNは仕上げ研磨工程において研磨むらを発生する原因となり、研磨後の表面粗度を低下させる。また、疲労破壊の起点となりやすく、粗大なものは鋼の疲労寿命を極度に低下させる。そのため、TiNの最大径は10μm以下とする。
[TiN]
In this invention, the magnitude | size and distribution state of TiN in steel are prescribed | regulated. TiN having a particle size of more than 10 μm causes uneven polishing in the final polishing step and reduces the surface roughness after polishing. Moreover, it is easy to become a starting point of fatigue fracture, and a coarse thing extremely reduces the fatigue life of steel. Therefore, the maximum diameter of TiN is set to 10 μm or less.
なお、本発明においてTiNの最大径はSEMを用いて観察することができ、その粒径とはTiN粒の最も長いさし渡し径を意味する。またTiNの最大径を求めるにあたっては、観察面積を320mm2とする。 In the present invention, the maximum diameter of TiN can be observed using SEM, and the particle diameter means the longest diameter of TiN grains. In obtaining the maximum diameter of TiN, the observation area is set to 320 mm 2 .
また、TiNの個数が0.25個/mm2未満の場合、研磨工程で過研磨状態となり表面粗度が低下するので0.25個/mm2以上とする。 Further, when the number of TiN is less than 0.25 pieces / mm 2, the surface roughness becomes excessively polished state in the polishing step is 0.25 pieces / mm 2 or more so lowered.
本発明に係る軸受鋼は、以下の工程で製造される。所定の成分の溶鋼を精錬後、鋳片に鋳込み、拡散燒鈍後、鋼片圧延を行う。鋳片に鋳込む際、粗大なTiNが生成しないように溶鋼過熱度を30℃以下として、鋳片の厚さを350mm以下とする。 The bearing steel according to the present invention is manufactured by the following steps. After refining the molten steel of a predetermined component, it is cast into a slab, and after the annealing, the slab is rolled. When casting into a slab, the degree of superheated molten steel is set to 30 ° C. or less and the thickness of the slab is set to 350 mm or less so that coarse TiN is not generated.
溶鋼過熱度が30℃を超えると鋳込んだ場合に鋳片の中心部に偏析帯を生じ、粗大なTi炭窒化物が生成する。また、鋳片の厚さが350mmを超えると、粗大なTiNの生成防止に必要な冷却速度が得られない。 When the molten steel superheat degree exceeds 30 ° C., when it is cast, a segregation band is generated at the center of the slab, and coarse Ti carbonitride is generated. On the other hand, if the thickness of the slab exceeds 350 mm, the cooling rate necessary for preventing the formation of coarse TiN cannot be obtained.
鋼片を所望の寸法に圧延後、再加熱し、棒鋼圧延、球状化燒鈍後伸線する。次に鍛造、熱処理し、研磨して製品とする。 The steel slab is rolled to a desired size and then reheated, followed by steel bar rolling, spheroidizing and wire drawing. Next, forging, heat treatment, and polishing to obtain a product.
本発明の効果を実施例をもって示す。表1に示す種々の成分組成の鋼を、真空溶解炉にて鋼塊とし、棒鋼に熱間圧延後、790℃で5hr保持後徐冷却する軟化燒鈍を行い、その後伸線加工によりΦ15.8mmの線材とした。得られた線材について、研磨性、疲労特性および冷間鍛造性を評価した。 The effect of this invention is shown with an Example. Steel having various composition shown in Table 1 is made into a steel ingot in a vacuum melting furnace, hot rolled into a steel bar, held at 790 ° C. for 5 hours, and then annealed and gradually cooled, and then subjected to Φ15. An 8 mm wire was used. About the obtained wire, abrasiveness, fatigue characteristics, and cold forgeability were evaluated.
表1の鋼No.1〜37は真空溶解炉で30kg鋼塊とする際、過熱度25℃で鋳込み、鋳片の厚さを180mmとし、鋼No.38は過熱度50℃で鋳込み、鋳片の厚さを180mmとした。鋼No.39は150kg鋼塊で360mm角の鋳片とした。 Steel No. 1 in Table 1 Nos. 1 to 37 were cast into a 30 kg steel ingot in a vacuum melting furnace, cast at a superheat degree of 25 ° C., and the thickness of the slab was 180 mm. No. 38 was cast at a superheat of 50 ° C., and the slab thickness was 180 mm. Steel No. No. 39 was a 150 kg steel ingot and a 360 mm square slab.
研磨性の評価に用いる試験片は、得られた線材からΦ10mm×10mmの円筒体を切出し、950℃で30分保持後油焼入れし、180℃で2時間の焼戻しを行った。その後、試験片を円筒端面が研磨面となるようにベークライト樹脂に埋め込み粗研磨を行った。 The test piece used for the evaluation of the polishing property was obtained by cutting a cylindrical body of Φ10 mm × 10 mm from the obtained wire, holding it at 950 ° C. for 30 minutes, quenching with oil, and tempering at 180 ° C. for 2 hours. Thereafter, the test piece was embedded in a bakelite resin so that the cylindrical end surface was a polished surface, and rough polishing was performed.
研磨性の評価は、粗研磨後の研磨面に荷重10kgでビッカース圧痕を打ち込み、その後、振動研磨機でアルミナ研磨剤と水を用いて10hr研磨し、表面粗度(Ry(μm))を測定するとともに、圧痕の大きさの変化から研磨量(μm)を求めた。更に、一定時間毎に表面粗度を測定し、Ryが0.02μm以下になるまでの時間を求めた。 For evaluation of polishing performance, a Vickers indentation was applied to the polished surface after rough polishing with a load of 10 kg, and then the surface was polished with an abrasive polishing agent and water for 10 hours using a vibration polishing machine, and the surface roughness (Ry (μm)) was measured. In addition, the polishing amount (μm) was obtained from the change in the size of the indentation. Furthermore, the surface roughness was measured at regular intervals, and the time until Ry became 0.02 μm or less was determined.
なお、最大高さRyの測定はJISB0601に準拠して、評価長さを0.4mmとして行った。 The maximum height Ry was measured according to JISB0601 with an evaluation length of 0.4 mm.
鋼中TiNの観察は、950℃で30分保持後油焼入れままの試験片(Φ10mm×10mm)を対象にSEMを用いて行った。観察範囲は320mm2とし,TiNの最大径を求めると共に、TiNの個数を計測し、1mm2当たりの個数に換算した。 Observation of TiN in the steel was performed using a SEM for a test piece (Φ10 mm × 10 mm) that was kept in an oil-quenched state at 950 ° C. for 30 minutes. The observation range was 320 mm 2 , the maximum diameter of TiN was obtained, and the number of TiN was measured and converted to the number per 1 mm 2 .
疲労試験はラジアル式転動疲労試験機を用い、ヘルツ最大接触応力5.8GPa,潤滑油:♯68タービン油で行い、試験結果をワイブル分布に従い確率紙で整理しB10寿命を求めた。転動疲労試験片は850℃で20分保持後に油焼入れ(油温60℃)し、180℃で2時間の焼戻しをおこなった線材から採取し、切削およびラッピング仕上げを行った。 The fatigue test was performed using a radial rolling fatigue tester with a Hertz maximum contact stress of 5.8 GPa, lubricating oil: # 68 turbine oil, and the test results were arranged with probability paper according to the Weibull distribution to determine the B10 life. The rolling fatigue test piece was oil quenched (oil temperature 60 ° C.) after being held at 850 ° C. for 20 minutes, sampled from a wire that had been tempered at 180 ° C. for 2 hours, and was subjected to cutting and lapping finishing.
冷間鍛造性は伸線加工された線材からΦ15×22.5mmの円筒体を軸方向が圧延方向となるように採取し試験片とした。冷間鍛造試験は種々の圧下率による圧縮をn=10で行い、割れの有無で評価した。図1(a)に試験方法、(b)に割れの発生状況を示す。 For cold forgeability, a Φ15 × 22.5 mm cylindrical body was sampled from the drawn wire so that the axial direction was the rolling direction, and used as a test piece. In the cold forging test, compression with various rolling reductions was performed at n = 10, and evaluation was performed based on the presence or absence of cracks. FIG. 1A shows a test method, and FIG.
冷間鍛造性の評価は、各圧縮率について割れ発生率を求め、試験片の50%(n=5)で割れが発生する圧縮率を評価値(鍛造性評価値%)とした。 Evaluation of cold forgeability calculated | required the crack generation rate about each compression rate, and made the compression rate which a crack generate | occur | produces in 50% (n = 5) of a test piece made the evaluation value (forgeability evaluation value%).
表2に研磨性、疲労特性および冷間鍛造性の評価結果を鋼中TiNの観察結果と合わせて示す。表1のNo.と表2のNo.は共通とし、表2のNo.1の試験結果は表1のNo.1の成分組成の鋼を用いたものとする。 Table 2 shows the evaluation results of abrasiveness, fatigue characteristics and cold forgeability together with the observation results of TiN in steel. No. in Table 1 And No. 2 in Table 2. Are the same as those in Table 2. The test results of No. 1 are shown in Table 1. It is assumed that steel having a component composition of 1 is used.
表2より本発明鋼(実施例1〜17)は優れた研磨性、疲労特性および冷間鍛造性を備えていることが確認された。一方、比較例1はCが本発明範囲外で少なく疲労強度が低い。比較例2はCが本発明範囲外で高く、冷間鍛造性が低い。 From Table 2, it was confirmed that the steels of the present invention (Examples 1 to 17) had excellent abrasiveness, fatigue characteristics, and cold forgeability. On the other hand, in Comparative Example 1, C is outside the range of the present invention and the fatigue strength is low. In Comparative Example 2, C is high outside the range of the present invention, and cold forgeability is low.

In Comparative Examples 4, 6, 8, 11, and 12, the TiN is coarse and the amount of grinding at the time of polishing is insufficient, resulting in poor polishability.
比較例13〜20は合金成分の添加量が本発明範囲外で多く、冷間鍛造性に劣る。比較例14はCrが本発明範囲外で少なく、疲労強度に劣る。比較例21、22は鋼中TiNが粗大で研磨量が不足し研磨性に劣り、疲労強度も低い。 In Comparative Examples 13 to 20, the amount of alloy components added is large outside the range of the present invention, and the cold forgeability is poor.
