34CrNiMo6 Intorcution –classification and chemical analysis

34CrNiMo6 Introduction –classification and chemical analysis

classification:

① quenched and tempered structural steel

②Surface hardened structural steel

① The carbon content of quenched and tempered steels is generally about 0.25% to 0.55%. For structural parts of a given cross-sectional size, when quenching and tempering along the cross-section during quenching and tempering (quenching and tempering), the mechanical properties are good. If it is not quenched and free ferrite appears in the microstructure, the toughness decreases. For steels with a tendency to temper brittleness, such as manganese steel, chromium steel, nickel-chromium steel, etc., they should be cooled quickly after tempering. The critical quenching diameter of this type of steel increases with the increase in grain size and alloying element content. For example, 40cr and 35simn steel is about 30-40mm, and 40crnimo and 30crni2mov steel is about 60-100mm, which is commonly used in manufacturing Structural parts such as shafts and connecting rods with large loads.

②Surface hardened structural steel is used to manufacture hard and wear-resistant surface parts and flexible parts, such as gears and shafts. In order to increase the toughness of the core of the part, the carbon content in the steel should be low, generally 0.12 to 0.25%, and there is also an appropriate amount of alloying elements to ensure proper hardenability. Nitrided steel also needs to add alloy elements (such as al, cr, mo, etc.) that are easy to form nitrides. Carburized or carbonitrided steel, after carburizing or carbonitriding at 850 ～ 950 ℃, quenched and used under low-temperature tempering (about 200 ℃). The nitrided steel is directly treated by nitriding (480 ～ 580 ℃), and it is no longer quenched and tempered.

34CrNiMo6 (1.6582) belongs to European standard high-strength alloy structural steel.

According to the carbon equivalent calculation formula recommended by the International Welding Society (IIW) Ceq = C + 1 / 6Mn + 1/5 (Cr + Mo + V) +1/15 (Ni + Cu) (%)

(1) When Ceq <0.40%;

(2) When Ceq = 0.40 ～ 0.60%, the hardening tendency of the steel gradually becomes obvious, and the weldability is acceptable. When welding, appropriate preheating before welding and slow cooling after welding should be adopted to control its welding line energy;

(3) When Ceq> 0.60%, the steel has a strong hard tendency and poor weldability. It is a steel type that is more difficult to weld, and a higher preheating temperature and strict process measures must be taken to select suitable welding. material. It is calculated that the carbon equivalent value of 35CrMo steel Ceq = 0.72%.

Europe Steel situation effected by COVID-19 with price ,trading issue…

The long-term producer Steel Plant (BMZ) has reduced processing capacity in the next round and wire orders of European and auto and auto parts manufacturers. This may reduce production this year by 300,000-350,000 metric tons, and encourages BMZ to carry out a three to a four-month renovation of the soot processing device that was originally scheduled to collect exhaust gas from the second electric arc furnace in 2021. The plan will be in 2020 The fourth quarter of the year, according to sources close to the company.

Price and trading volume

Steel prices are facing downward pressure due to the temporary shutdown of automobile manufacturers in most parts of Europe and the reduction in trade activity in the construction and other steel industries, which has led to the interruption of trade flows. Despite Europe ’s import protection measures, some key steel prices have reached a three-year low in 2019. At that time, the European market was oversupplied. Despite the import protection plan, imports to the EU remained at historical highs, and prices are now even Close to 2009 levels.

The Nordic HR coil ex-works price (Ruhr) started in January 2020 at a price of Eue435 ($ 469.80) / mt, even lower than Eur450 / mt in January 2009, and has risen to Eur474 / mt since the beginning of March 2020 . The impact of production cuts.

S & P Global Platts Energy Information research shows that imports are picking up, and Asia is actively providing imports to Europe. International prices are under pressure, but due to long delivery times and current trade and logistics uncertainties, many buyers have not considered imports. Nordic steel mills hope to provide hot-rolled coil CFR (North Africa) at a lower price because they seek to unload outside the EU to maintain domestic market prices.

Regarding analysis about the steel due to COVID-19

CIS

Regarding analysis about the steel due to COVID-19 Ukraine

In the last week of March, ArcelorMittalKryviy Rih worked in Ukraine, temporarily suspending the No. 1 blooming mill and the No. 3 light rolling mill at one of its two flowering plants. The facility will remain idle until the quarantine caused by a coronavirus in Ukraine on April 24. The plant will continue to operate mills 1 and 5, while mill 5 will maintain half of its capacity. The company said that in April and May, the output of its main products (long products, billet and pig iron) will be 20% lower than normal.Given that last year, the plant’s average monthly saleable output was 390,000-393,000 tons, and the monthly output from April to May may fall by 80,000 tons to 310,000-313,000 tons/month.

Metinvest, a Ukrainian mining and steel group, said this week that if the operations of its Italian plant will not return to normal soon, it will have to cut output from its Ukrainian steel plant. Since March 24, due to the coronavirus pandemic, its business has decreased significantly.  The production of utility steel from Italian medium and heavy plate coil producers Ferriera Valsider and Trametal, owned by Metinvest, has decreased by 40,000 metric tons.

The steel mill is scheduled to restart on April 3, but if the Italian government resumes quarantine, Metinvest will also be forced to reduce the output of its Ukrainian steel mills, mainly in Azovstal, which supplies slabs to Italian steel mills. If the situation continues, Metinvest does not rule out the temporary suspension of Azovstal’s slab continuous casting. The company may also consider blowing down No. 3 blast furnace in Azovstal and postponing the restart of the refurbished No. 4 blast furnace until May (expected to begin in April).

Although the two-week quarantine work began on March 30 in the Karaganda region where it is located, the Temirtau steel plant in Kazakhstan is still operating normally. “The company is in steel production, coal and iron ore mining as well as continuing to fulfill its obligations to customers.”

Europe countries ‘ situation effected by COVID-19 Part two

Since April 7th, ArcelorMittal has begun preparations for the temporary closure of blast furnace A at its Gijon plant in Asturias. The plant has two blast furnaces with a total annual output of 4.2 million tons of crude steel. According to S & P Global Platts Energy Information, the annual crude steel production capacity of furnace A is about 2.7 million tons per year.

On the morning of March 31, Basque (Sestao) temporarily shut down the electric arc furnace to balance supply and demand. Sestao’s crude steel design capacity is about 1.4 million tons/year, but since September last year, the annual output has been 300,000 tons/year for the automotive industry.

Last week AM stopped production of its 250,000-ton / year steel rolling mill in Lesaka, which produces organic coated coils for the automotive sector. It also closed its Sagunto rolling mill, and its annual production capacity of galvanized products is about 600,000 tons, accounting for 70% of the automotive industry.

AM’s Olaberria-Bergara production line for the automotive and construction industries is running.

the other europe countries’ situation analysis effected by COVID-19

United Kingdom

Steel producers are still working, but due to restrictions imposed by the government, production has been adjusted to reduce demand. The total output is usually 7.3 million tons/year. Major producers Tata Steel (Talbert Port has a production capacity of 3.5 million tons/year), British Steel (2.5 million tons/year) and Free Group reported that production in product areas related to the automotive industry has been reduced.

Tata Steel said: “We will continue to operate all four blast furnaces at our two steelmaking centers-IJmuiden in the Netherlands and Port Talbot in Wales. However, due to the sudden drop in steel production, liquid Steel production will decrease. Demand. ”

British Steel continues to operate two blast furnaces with an annual output of approximately 2.5 million tons.

Freedom Group continues to produce approximately 1.2 million shares of crude steel through two furnaces in Rotherham, England. Once the customer’s plan is completed and the plant and equipment are shut down, Liberty will only suspend operations at Liberty Pressing Solutions, Liberty TubeComponents and Liberty Aluminium Technologies related to the automotive industry, and restart effectively when needed.

Belgium: Liberty Liege-Dudelange closed the three production bases of Flemalle, Tiller, and Dudelange on March 21, and stated that it will continue to deliver finished products to customers.

Austria: Voestalpine, which has an annual capacity of 5 million tons, has idled a blast furnace in Linz and announced short-term work.

Europe countries ‘ situation effected by COVID-19 Part one

Germany

Germany is the largest steel-making country in the European Union, producing 39.7 million tons of crude steel in 2019. With the closure of the country’s automotive industry, several steel mills announced a reduction in production capacity.

The ArcelorMittal Bremen plant has a production capacity of 3.6 million tons and one of the two blast furnaces has been idle. The work of Bottrop and Eisenhuettenstadt reduced working hours.

Thyssenkrupp, Germany’s largest steel producer, will enter short-term production and cut production.

Salzgitter reduced flat steel output. Saarstahl and Dillinger have a pig iron production capacity of 4.6 million tons per year. Due to the high idling cost and the need for more maintenance work, their crude steel output is kept at the lowest technically possible productivity. Salstar ’s 500,000 t / y long steel mill capacity is 50%. Cold rolling mills are reducing production due to insufficient supply due to the shutdown of steel and automobile factories.

Italy

Italy is the second largest producer in the European Union. In 2019, crude steel production was 23 million tons per year. Except for the factories of Taranto and Arvedi of Angelor Mittal, all The steel mills have shut down their operations in accordance with government regulations against COVID-19.

Italy ’s largest flat steel producer Taranto has closed its 2 million ton / year blast furnace No. 2 and No. 1 smelting plant, but has obtained permission to keep No. 1 and No. 4 blast furnaces operating. Continuous cycle production capacity, so it is produced at a historically low level of approximately 8,500 metric tons per year.

Arvedi, a Lombardy electric arc furnace (EAF) steel producer with an annual capacity of 4 million tons per year, has also been allowed to continue production, but only at a reduced speed during the weekend.

France

ArcelorMittal has stopped the production of two blast furnaces, one of which is located in Foss-sur-Mer, and the other is located in Dunkirk, with about 4 million tons of crude steel rolled off the line every year.

The Beltrame Group, Europe’s largest commercial steel bar producer, closed its French business Lamines Marchands Europes (LME) in Trith Saint Leger in northern France, with an annual capacity of 850,000 tons of electric furnaces and two steel mills until the end of March. It is understood that the closure is under review.

Spain

The Spanish Steel Industry Association UNESID is seeking clarification from the Ministry of Industry on what is an important industry. Fighting the coronavirus in tougher measures will only allow “strategically important departments” to continue to operate. During the measures taken, many consumer factories (such as car manufacturers) have been closed.

Europe Steel Industrial have effected by COVID-19

European industries  affected by the pandemic

The European steel industry was severely hit by the coronavirus pandemic. Experts report that the automotive industry is the second largest consumer industry for steel, temporarily closed. while the construction industry (the most consumed industry) slowed sharply in the UK in the last week of March. It can be expected that the current crisis (still intensifying) will have the same impact on the steel industry as the global financial crisis, or even greater. According to data from the World Steel Association (world steel), the financial crisis led to the EU ’s crude steel production in 2009 A year-on-year decline of nearly 30% to 139 million tons.

European steel price affected by the pandemic, the demand and capacity are reduced.

Jefferies International analysts Simon Thackray and Abraham Akra said this week: “The dislocation of COVID-19 steel demand should bring capacity utilization back to [Global Financial Crisis] levels and Steel production will be significantly affected. “During the COVID-19 pandemic, auto factories have been closed. We expect construction activities to slow down accordingly. Some governments are now exempt from lock-in operations. The mid-term demand blow from the pandemic will lead to unemployment. The rate is rising and it is expected that it will take several months to restore the locked state. ”

According to the International Iron and Steel Association, 28 countries/regions in the EU produced 159.4 million tons of crude steel in 2019. Sources from well-positioned steel makers say the current crisis may shut down the steelmaking capacity of major EU mills by as much as 50%. Agent SP Angel estimated on Friday that the European blast furnace with an annual capacity of 19 million tons has been closed and the capacity of other blast furnaces is decreasing. Other furnace shutdowns will occur in the next few days. Brazilian miner Vale said mid-week that European iron ore demand had been cut by 18 million tons.

Global Steel Industrial have effected by COVID-19 – Preview

The global crisis, a large number of steel mills shut down! 40% of domestic steel mills lost money, and European steel prices fell back to 2009

In January-February, China Steel Association’s steel companies have lost more than 40% of their losses

Now member steel companies are basically on the brink of loss

The spread of the epidemic has exceeded all expectations, and the situation facing the steel industry and the market is confusing.

Chi Jingdong, vice chairman of the China Iron and Steel Association, said: “No one expected that it would be as serious as it is now. The whole world has reached a situation that is a little bit out of control. The new and old problems of the Chinese steel industry are superimposed and under the impact of the epidemic, Where will it go again? ”

Two months ago, the Chinese steel companies at that time were in an awkward position: the raw materials were difficult to enter, the materials were difficult to come out, and the inventory was rising … A person in charge of a large state-owned steel company told the Economic Observer, “The first quarter It ’s good to lose money. ”

the expertise’s prediction about the steel market

However, Chi Jingdong introduced, “The loss of member steel companies in January-February has exceeded 40%. Now the profit margin of member steel companies has fallen to almost 1%, which is basically at the edge of loss.”

His prediction for the future steel market is: In the short term, April steel prices will fluctuate within a narrow range with high probability. It is not always possible that profits will drop sharply, but good benefits are also difficult. If the foreign market is not good after April and May, at least the steel price in the first half of the year will be unsatisfactory. If the epidemic is delayed until June or July, the impact will be greater.

Chi Jingdong believes that this year the steel industry and the market are at great risk, and it is recommended that steel enterprises should be prepared to deal with the market decline.

In this steel test, the difficulties, problems and even deep-seated contradictions of the entire industry and enterprises themselves were exposed.
