Main process elements for heat treatment of large steel castings

17 Apr,2018 UTC+8 Views:


The heat treatment of large steel castings slag packs and slag pots generally consists of heating, heat preservation, and cooling. The determination of their process parameters is based on the assurance of product quality and energy conservation.

1. Heating is the most energy-intensive process in the heat treatment process. The main technical elements in the heating process are selecting the appropriate heating method, heating rate and loading method. The large steel casting manufacturer Great Wall Cast Steel has also done a lot of work in heat treatment related castings to ensure that each product is fully heat treated.

2. The austenitizing heat preservation temperature of the heat-preserving cast steel shall be selected according to the chemical composition of the cast steel and the required performance. The determination of the heat treatment holding time of steel castings should consider two aspects: singularity is consistent with the temperature of the casting surface and the core, and the second is the homogenization of the structure. Therefore, the residence time of the insulation depends on the thermal conductivity of the cast steel and the wall thickness of the casting. Is the main basis for estimating the holding time.

3. After cooling, the steel castings can be cooled at different rates to complete the phase transformation of the steel to obtain the required metallurgical structure and achieve the specified performance indicators. In general, increasing the cooling rate is conducive to obtaining a good state of organization and refinement of the salute, thereby improving the performance of the steel, but it is easy to cause the casting to generate a large stress and lead to deformation or cracking of the casting with a complex structure. The heat treatment cooling media for steel castings commonly used are air, oil, water, brine, molten salt, etc.
