Welding Process Analysis of S45C Steel and S235 Steel

Welding Process Analysis of S45C Steel and S235 Steel
S45C steel is a kind of very high quality carbon structural steel with good performance and process performance. S45C steel square bar is widely used in the machinery industry and is mainly used as mechanical parts such as shafts, gears and high strength bolts. S45C steel square bar is a kind of carbon structural steel with carbon content of 0.45%. S45C steel square bar belongs to medium carbon steel, and its mechanical properties are high in strength but poor in toughness. S45C steel square bar has less harmful impurities and non-metallic inclusions, stricter chemical composition control, better plasticity and toughness. S45C steel square bar is suitable for the manufacture of more important mechanical parts. S235 is a kind of common structural steel, belonging to engineering steel, mainly used for steel components, such as angle steel, channel steel, I-beam, steel plate and so on. S45C steel and S235 steel have good metal properties and a wide range of applications. The analysis of S45C steel and S235 welding processes and their weldability is of great significance in welding production. As a kind of medium carbon steel, S45C steel square bar has poor weldability and is prone to defects during the welding process. S235 steel has good welding performance because S235 steel is structural steel, which belongs to engineering steel and has low carbon content and it is a kind of good welding base material.
The right process is the basic condition for quality assurance. Carbon dioxide gas shielded welding is an important welding method. Compared with other arc welding methods, it has stronger adaptability, higher efficiency, better economy and easier access to welded joints that meet the performance requirements. The carbon dioxide gas protection welding of S45C steel and S235 has strict environmental requirements, and it is required to be carried out in a windless environment. Once there is wind, there will be defects of pores, and although the speed of carbon dioxide gas protection welding is relatively fast, the welder’s level of operation is high. According to the chemical composition analysis of the base material S45C steel and S235 steel, the carbon equivalent of S45C steel is 0.63% from the viewpoint of carbon equivalent. The carbon equivalent is relatively large and the weldability is relatively poor. In order to avoid cracks after welding, it is necessary to preheat 250 °C before welding and 550 °C stress relief annealing after welding is also quite necessary. S235 has good weldability, but due to the characteristics of dissimilar steel welding, it is necessary to formulate welding process parameters according to S45C steel with poor weldability. The hardness distribution of the welded joint is as follows. The hardness of the heat-affected zone varies widely, and the hardness value is high. In particular, the fusion line has a high hardness value due to elemental diffusion, and the hardness distribution of the weld is relatively uniform.

Development of A32 and A36 High Strength Shipbuilding Steel Plates

Development of A32 and A36 High Strength Shipbuilding Steel Plates Since the 1990s, China’s  shipbuilding steel plates  industry has entered the international market on a large scale, and the shipbuilding steel plates industry has gradually become one of the pillar industries in China. With the development of shipbuilding steel plates in the direction of large-scale and light-weight, the general strength ship plates can no longer meet the needs of the hull, and the proportion of high-strength ship plates will continue to increase. Therefore, the development of high-strength shipbuilding plates has broad market prospects. Structural steel for hull can be divided into general strength steel and high strength steel. A32 and A36 are one type of structural steel for high strength hull. With the development of the shipbuilding industry, the requirements for materials are becoming more and more demanding. At present, in the factory approval, besides the certification of the ...

Study on Cooling Method of SUP9 Spring Flat Steel

Study on Cooling Method of SUP9 Spring Flat Steel Hot rolled spring flat steel bar is mainly used for the automotive industry, and it’s the raw material for automobile leaf spring  manufacturing. The main varieties of spring steel include 60Si2Mn spring steel,  SUP9 spring steel flat bar , 55SiMnVB spring steel. SUP9 spring steel flat bar is produced in accordance with the Japanese standard. At present, many leaf spring manufacturers mostly use SUP9 spring steel as the raw material for manufacturing automotive leaf springs. Compared with 60Si2Mn, SUP9 spring steel has good hardenability and low decarburization tendency, so the mechanical properties and fatigue properties of the leaf springs produced with SUP9 spring steel are better than that of 60Si2Mn steel. However, due to the good hardenability of  SUP9 steel , the hardness is often too high during actual rolling production and cooling. The reheating, quenching and tempering treatment are carried out in...
