2.2 Technical Feasibility Analysis
With the continuous development of medium and deep larvae technology in recent years, efficient High-efficiency and high-power hydraulic rock drills are widely used. hydraulic rock drilling The machine was produced and applied in the 1970s A new type of rock drilling machine, which has high energy utilization rate, output power High rate, fast drilling speed, low noise, good working site conditions, environmental protection It has the advantages of less environmental pollution, high drilling efficiency and extended tool life. The matching threaded drill rod is a drill rod product with high technical content. kind. With the continuous development of medium and deep hole rock drilling technology in recent years, high The wide application of efficiency and high-power rock drills greatly improves the rock drilling efficiency. improve. This requires that the drill rod products can withstand high frequency and high power impact. impact, high torque and high fatigue resistance. drill rod for rock drilling It is a slender rod body, its service condition is to bear in the corrosive medium Loaded by multi-stretch tension and compression, multi-stretch bending and multi-stretch torsion, so Excellent material properties are required. After calculation, the impact of the hydraulic rock drill Under the load condition of 340J work, the threaded drill rod breaks The instantaneous actual force is 823 MPa. Therefore, the drill rod must be selected to resist The tensile strength is 1373 MPa and the yield strength is above 1275 MPa of ultra-high-strength steel.
Production process of threaded chisel
(1) Foreign (take Sweden Sandvik Company as an example) thread drill rod production process
The material is 20CrNi3Mo, FF710 and other steel types, and the process flow Chengwei:
Scrap steel selection-smelting-LF refining-VD vacuum treatment Rationale, pouring large steel ingot, heating, billet cutting, peeling, mechanical drilling Hole-core loading-heating-rolled material-core pulling-hollow steel-forging Manufacturing-mechanical processing-carburizing-air quenching (forced air cooling)-low temperature Tempering—inspection—straightening—shot blasting—rust prevention—packaging—storage. Its processing characteristics are: the material is carburized with low carbon medium alloy steel. After carburizing, quenching and tempering, good strength and toughness can be obtained Issue high fatigue life and high surface hardness meet the requirements of the drill rod conditions of service. Advanced steelmaking and steel rolling process make the steel pure High density and large compression ratio can realize the purification, homogenization and crystallization of steel Granular refinement provides high-quality materials for brazing. Product quality is stable fixed, high service life, medium hard rock, uniaxial compressive strength The drilling speed is 100 MPa, and the rock drilling footage is about 4,000 meters per branch, which is an international Recognized as the best threaded chisel production process. But its process route long. The cost of raw materials and production is high, and the rolling process and size Precision, heat treatment process and equipment requirements are high, precise control is difficult Large, the domestic has not yet fully mastered its technology.
(2) Production process and characteristics of domestic threaded drill rod
The domestic heavy-duty rock drilling rod material is 20CrNi3Mo, FF710 and other steel grades. The process flow is divided into the following categories:
Process one (imitation of foreign technology):
Scrap steel selection-smelting-LF refining-VD vacuum treatment Rationale, pouring large steel ingot, heating, billet cutting, peeling, mechanical drilling
Hole-core loading-heating-rolled material-core pulling-hollow steel-forging Manufacturing-mechanical processing-carburizing-air quenching (forced air cooling)-low temperature Tempering—inspection—straightening—shot blasting—rust prevention—packaging—storage.
Process two:
Round steel—peeling—heating—piercing—hot rolling and reducing (or hot rolling) drawing)-hollow steel-forging-machining-carburizing-empty Quenching, tempering, inspection, straightening, shot blasting, rust prevention, packaging storage. Its technological characteristics are: short production process and low cost.
Process three:
Excellent products produced by drilling method or hot piercing-hot rolling (drawing) method Quality hollow steel – forging – machining – normalizing – quenching -Tempering—inspection—straightening—shot blasting—rust prevention—packaging—storage. This method can be used to produce impact energy is not too high, the impact frequency is not too high High hydraulic rock drilling sites (such as COPl038, Mercury-300 hydraulic Rock drill).
The threaded drill rod is made of low-carbon high-strength alloy steel after carburizing and Quenching and tempering + shot peening + anti-corrosion treatment is currently the best thread brazing Rod brazing process. However, the uniformity of the carburizing furnace temperature, the surface carburizing layer Depth control, control of the bending degree of the rod body during quenching, thread The dimensional accuracy and roughness of the machined surface are the factors that determine the threaded brazing Discussion on Technological Innovation of Brazing Steel and Drilling Tool Enterprises A key factor in rod quality. Especially the surface carburized layer requires no block Shaped and reticular carbides, no defects such as internal oxidation, the surface hardness should be It is difficult to achieve a gentle gradient in the process.
After the low-carbon high-strength alloy steel is carburized, quenched and tempered, Although the surface hardness, wear resistance and fatigue of the threaded drill rod are increased Strength, but also increases the notch sensitivity of the surface of the threaded drill rod sex. This process does not fully meet the requirements of the threaded drill rod in the rock drilling process. middle. Produced by the high-frequency impact between the coupling sleeve and the drill rod thread High heat resistance to softening. Therefore, threaded drill rods still have issues to be solved. Do in-depth research.
In summary. The manufacturing process of threaded drill rod is more complicated and difficult Larger, currently the threaded drill rods produced in my country are at the advanced level in the world In comparison, there is still a big gap.
