摘要
In consideration of the composition characteristics and quality requirements of sulphurous free-cutting gear steel, the rational measures of sulfur control, calcium treatment and key technologies of continuous casting process are applied in the development of a full-line operation of LD-Billet continuous casting on steelmaking with semi-steel, which suggests an economic production of the steel has been realized. Test results show that the average retrieval rate of sulphurous alloy in the process of RH treatment is 95.3% and sulfur content of products is stability. Otherwise, content of T[O] in casting billet is in the range of 11×10-6 ~ 18×10-6 with average value is 14.7×10-6.Based on this, the billets have good surface quality and internal quality.
