Effects of Controlled Rolling and Controlled Cooling on the Mechanical Properties of 550MPa Grade Engineering Mechanism Steel

The effects of controlled rolling and controlled cooling parameters on the microstructure and mechanical properties of 550MPa grade engineering mechanism steel were investigated in the industrial trial conditions. The results show that the mechanical properties of 550MPa grade engineering mechanism steel are obviously improved by controlling finishing rolling temperature ranged from 780°Cto 850°C, and by using accelerate cooling after rolling, ferrite grains are refined markedly of the steel which possess excellent strength and toughness behaviors.
