MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OPTIMIZATION OF METAL BARS AND SHEETS MADE OF 34CrNiMo6 STEEL
Currently available and well known materials treated by a special procedures can provide superior properties in the comparison to presently obtained ones. Special treatment procedures are efficiently developed with the use of physical simulators nowadays. Physical simulators allow treatment optimization on small scale laboratory samples which can be subsequently transferred to real production processes later on. Nevertheless, there is always need of successful transfer from small scale laboratory experiments to real production of for example metal sheets.In the current paper thermo-mechanical procedure developed for 34CrNiMo6 steel under laboratory conditions is applied to metal sheets production. There were obtained very promising properties on the bulk material samples processed in the physical simulator, the challenge was to obtain similar properties on a real metal sheets by a transfer of laboratory procedure to metal sheet production process.In the considered case the combination of tensile strength and elongation were especially required for considered application in a train body. In order to achieve excellent elongation for high strength hardened steel, very fine microstructure has to be attained through the thermo-mechanical process optimization. Very good results were achieved on produced metal sheets. 6% elongation was attained allowing the possibility of further material processing, e.g.bending of sheets, with tensile strength exceeding 1500 MPa.The study presented here confirms usefulness of thermo-mechanical simulators for new procedures development. With the use of the simulator of thermal-deformation cycles a materials with optimized properties for certain application can be efficiently developed.
