Problems solved by technology

[0004] Whether the end hardenability is stable or not has a great influence on the deformation of the gear after heat treatment, and the deformation of the gear directly affects the noise of the gearbox; fine and uniform austenite grains can stabilize the end harden On the other hand, after carburizing the gear steel, the fatigue cracks start at the inclusions and expand along the grain boundaries in the carburized layer, so the grain refinement can also be Significantly improve the fatigue performance; however, the appearance of the banded structure in steel often easily causes the instability of the carburized structure of the gear, making the deformation of the carburized layer irregular, resulting in the deformation of the gear workpiece and the reduction of fatigue performance, affecting the accuracy and service life of the gear ; In addition, good cutting performance is an important condition to ensure gear machining accuracy and reduce machining costs

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of alloy steel, and in particular relates to a manufacturing method of Mn-Cr series gear steel. Background technique [0002] Based on the actual working environment and requirements of its finished parts, gear steel usually needs to have good strength, toughness and wear resistance. In addition, high-performance gear steel also needs to withstand impact, bending and contact stress well, and can It meets the requirements of small deformation, high precision and low noise. [0003] Due to the special purpose of gear steel, the various stresses that gears must bear during work are important reasons for their fatigue failure. The main source of fatigue cracks in gear steel is oxide inclusions, and the total amount of inclusions is mainly determined by the oxygen content in the steel. [0004] Whether the end hardenability is stable or not has a great influence on the deformation of the gear after heat treatme...
