In manufacturing 416 series free-cutting martensitic stainless steel, the hot lump of free-cutting steel taken out from the mold is heated to about 1300 to 1340°C, and then hot rolled (blushing rolling) is performed. It was. (This is what the invention attempts to solve!) However, with this conventional manufacturing method for free-cutting steel, corner cracks tend to occur during hot rolling. Therefore, since it was necessary to remove the areas where corner cracks had occurred, there was an unavoidable problem that the amount of friction reduction of the steel billet would increase significantly. (Object of the Invention) The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems. In the process of obtaining a steel billet by heating and then rolling (e.g., blooming) a hot billet (in the case of ingot ingot making) or a hot billet (in the case of continuous casting), prevent corner cracks from occurring in the billet as much as possible. A method for manufacturing free-cutting steel that can reduce the amount of friction of the steel billet and enables surface care work of the steel billet to be carried out even more efficiently. The aim is to provide the following information.

Ripe ingots made of free-cutting steel containing at least one type of S and Se extracted from etc. (in the case of ingots 1 and ingots of the former) or hot pieces (continuous #4 of the latter) In the process of heating and then rolling a slab (in the case of a cast slab by molding) and then rolling it into a steel slab, the hot lump or hot slab is cooled before heating to refine the LLI weave in at least the surface M portion, and then It is characterized by a structure in which a hot lump or piece is heated and then rolled into a steel piece, and the structure of the method for manufacturing such free-cutting steel has been developed as a means to solve the conventional problems described above. There is. The method for producing free-cutting steel according to the present invention is as follows. Essentially contains at least one selected from S and Se as a machinability improving element, and S, such as Pb, Te, Bi, P, and Ca.
Applicable to free-cutting steels that optionally contain one or more machinability-improving elements other than Se. For such free-cutting steel, the hot rolling temperature is approximately 1300°C.
It is particularly desirable to apply this to those in which the phase diagram is α+γ, for example, when the C content is 0.

0005 ~0. 0.005%, free-cutting structural steel made of Fe, etc., but it goes without saying that the steel is not limited to those exemplified here. In the method for producing free-cutting steel according to the present invention, in the step of heating a hot ingot or a ripe piece made of the free-cutting steel exemplified above and then rolling it into a steel billet, the hot ingot is heated before heating. Alternatively, after cooling the hot piece and refining the structure by controlling the structure morphology at least in the surface layer, the hot lump or ripe piece is heated and then rolled to form a steel piece, and the steel piece is heated during hot rolling. In this case, it is simple and economically preferable to use water cooling as a means of cooling the hot lumps or pieces, and cooling using water spray or mist is used. It is also possible to do so. In addition, for water refining, it is desirable that at least the surface layer of the hot lump or hot piece is cooled from the α+γ10K+ (carbide) state to a temperature that passes through the α+K1 transformation point. It is desirable to perform rapid cooling to a temperature of 500°C or less. However, if the cooling temperature is too low or if the cooling is performed to a depth that exceeds what is effective in preventing corner cracking of the billet, the amount and time of subsequent heating will be large, resulting in poor economic performance. Therefore, it is necessary to cool the steel piece to an extent that does not cause corner cracks during hot rolling, for example, if the surface part
It is also desirable, if necessary, to provide cooling to a temperature of 0 to 500°C. By performing such cooling before heating, the structural morphology of at least the surface layer is controlled to become a fine structure, the average diameter and area ratio of δ-Fe become thicker, and furthermore, the average diameter and area ratio of δ-Fe become thicker. Since the shape is also changed, corner cracks are less likely to occur in the steel slab obtained by heating and hot rolling after cooling. In this case, as described above, by cooling before heating, the structural morphology of at least the surface layer is controlled, and the f-average and area ratio of δ-Fe increase, resulting in S. This reduces Se and contributes to improving hot workability, but in this case, the surface layer (2
The average grain size of δ-Fe in the ~3mm portion) is 6
~logm. It is particularly desirable that the area ratio of δ-Fe be approximately 5 to 10%. (Function of the invention) In the method for manufacturing free-cutting steel according to the present invention, for example, a hot lump or hot piece made of free-cutting steel containing at least one selected from S and Se is heated, and then In the step of rolling into a steel billet, the hot lump or ripe piece is cooled before heating to refine the structure at least in the surface layer, and then the hot lump or hot piece is heated and then rolled to become a steel billet. Therefore, the cooling performed before heating controls the structural morphology of at least the surface layer of the hot mass or hot flakes,
Compared to the case where the hot lump is not cooled before heating, when the hot lump is cooled and water-cooled, the δ in the surface layer is
-By increasing the average diameter of Fe and increasing its area ratio, it is possible to reduce the precipitation of S and Se at grain boundaries, and the morphology of δ-Fe also changes, causing If it is left as a hot lump without being cooled, it has a coarse structure that is considered to be a residual columnar product.
On the other hand, when the δ-Fe is cooled before heating and the hot mass is water-cooled, the form of δ-Fe changes, and when the δ-Fe is not cooled before heating, the δ-Fe is Cooling results in fragmentation and roundness, which reduces cracking susceptibility.Furthermore, cooling also refines the structure of at least the surface debris, causing S.I. S
Since the precipitation amount and precipitation density of e are reduced, the hot workability is significantly improved, and therefore corner cracks are less likely to occur in the steel billet during hot rolling. Effect is brought about. (Example) After obtaining a hot lump consisting of a test ingot with a weight of 40 kg and a size of 120 mm square by melting and casting a certain amount of steel shown in Table 1, the hot lump was water-cooled for 15 minutes. The surface portion is rapidly cooled in the temperature change pattern shown in the example of FIG.
It was cooled to 00℃. Next, the hot water-cooled steel ingot was heated to 1300°C.
After heating and holding for 90 minutes, the sample was rapidly cooled using the temperature change pattern shown in the example shown in Figure 1, and its microstructure was observed. The microstructure and δ-Fe morphology observed here are shown in the Example (hot mass water cooling) column of Figure 2. For comparison, steel having the chemical composition shown in Table 1 as in the previous example was melted and cast to obtain a hot lump consisting of a test ingot weighing 40 kg and measuring 120 mm square. Without water cooling (the temperature change pattern shown in the comparative example in Figure 1), the sample was heated to 1300°C, held for 90 minutes, and then rapidly cooled, and its microstructure was observed. The microstructure and δ-Fe shape observed here are shown in the comparative example (thermal mass) column of Figure 2. Next, the above-mentioned heavy i40
kg. Two pilot ingots with a size of 120 mm square were heated so as to have the temperature change pattern shown in the example in Fig. 3.
Cooling is carried out to a surface temperature of 400°C, then 1300°C.
It was heated to ℃. and. An ingot heated to 1300°C was rolled into a steel billet. When the amount of wear of the obtained steel slab due to flaw removal was investigated, the results were shown in the Example column of Table 2. Also, for comparison, the weight 40 kg mentioned above. size 1
A 20 mm square pilot ingot was cooled to the temperature change pattern shown in the comparative example in Figure 3.
It was heated to 300℃. The ingot heated to 1300°C was then rolled into a steel billet. When the amount of wear of the steel slab obtained here due to flaw removal was investigated, the results were shown in the Comparative Example column of Table 2. Next, the Jitsukawa Steel Ingot (
(weight: 1.5 ton) was rapidly cooled from 840°C according to the temperature change pattern shown in the example in Figure 3 until the surface temperature reached 400°C, and then heated to 1300°C.
After this, the steel slabs were flat-rolled to form steel slabs, and the occurrence of defects in the steel slabs and the rate of wear caused by removing the scratches from the steel slabs were investigated. As a result, the occurrence of flaws on the steel slabs was as shown in the Examples section of Figure 4, and the rate of wear of the steel slabs due to flaw removal was as shown in the Examples section of Table 3. For comparison, a practical steel ingot (weighing 1.5 tons) having the same chemical composition as shown in Table 1 was washed down a river, and the temperature change pattern shown in the comparative example in Fig. 3 was 840.
The steel pieces were heated to 1300°C and then rolled into steel pieces to investigate the occurrence of defects in the steel pieces and the rate of reduction in defects due to the removal of defects from the steel pieces. As a result, the occurrence of flaws on the steel slabs was as shown in the Comparative Example section of Figure 4, and the rate of wear of the steel slabs due to flaw removal was as shown in the Comparative Example column of Table 3. Furthermore, for reference, a practical steel ingot (weight 1.5 tons) having the same chemical composition as shown in Table 1 is used, and once cooled into a cold ingot according to the temperature change diagram shown in the reference example in Figure 3. After that, it was heated to 1300'C and then rolled into steel slabs to examine the occurrence of flaws in the steel slabs and the rate of wear caused by removing the flaws from the steel slabs. As a result,
The occurrence of flaws on the steel slabs is as shown in the reference example section of Figure 4, and the wear rate due to flaw removal on the steel slabs is as shown in the reference example column of Table 3. As is clear from the results shown in Tables 2 and 3,
The test results using practical steel ingots show the same tendency as the test results using test ingots. It was confirmed that the amount of friction loss on the steel billet could be significantly reduced compared to the case of . In addition, as shown in Figure 4, it was also observed that corner cracking of the steel slab was significantly improved in the commercial steel ingot. Furthermore, in the case of hot mass water cooling, in which water cooling is performed before heating, the microstructure is fine, as shown in Figure 2, and even in the δ-Fe form, the average diameter is large and the area ratio is large. As a result, the precipitation of S and Se at grain boundaries is reduced due to an increase in δ-Fe, the cracking susceptibility is reduced due to a change in the morphology of δ-Fe (disintegration of the network morphology), and the precipitation of S and Se at grain boundaries is reduced due to a refinement of the structure. It was inferred that hot workability was improved by reducing the amount of S and Se precipitation and the precipitation density, making it difficult for corner cracks to occur in the steel billet during hot rolling after heating. .. On the other hand, in the case of the hot mass of the comparative example that is not cooled before heating, as shown in the comparative example column of Fig. 2, δ - Fe
The average diameter of δ-Fe is small, the area ratio of δ-Fe is also small, and the form of δ-Fe is spread out like a network, and the surface structure is composed of columnar crystals. It was assumed that the steel slab had a rough structure that appeared to be residual, and its hot workability was not very good, making it likely that corner cracks would occur in the steel slab during hot rolling.

なる効果がもたらされる.In this invention, in the step of heating a hot lump or hot piece made of free-cutting steel containing at least one selected from S and Se and then rolling it into a steel piece, the hot lump or hot piece is heated before heating. Since the hot lump or hot piece is heated and then rolled into a steel piece after cooling the piece to refine the structure at least in the surface layer, corner cracks occur in the steel piece obtained by rolling. It is possible to prevent this as much as possible, and it is possible to significantly reduce the amount of friction loss of the steel billet, thereby improving the steel material yield, and it is possible to improve the surface care work of the steel billet. This has the great effect of making it possible to complete the process efficiently and in a short period of time.
