On October 9, the No. 2 Steelmaking and Rolling Department of Anyang Iron and Steel successfully completed the full-process smelting and rolling of X120Mn12 and Mn15Cr1 high manganese wear-resistant steel. All performance indicators of the finished products met the standards, adding a "new member" to the high manganese steel product family and injecting new vitality into the advanced steel material product matrix.
The smelting of this high-manganese wear-resistant steel began on October 8th. From production preparation to steel smelting and rolling, during the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holidays, leading cadres remained on-site and took the lead in command, coordinating and solving production problems with a strong sense of responsibility, thus laying a solid guarantee for the stable and smooth production of high-manganese steel.
As newcomers to the high-manganese steel family, X120Mn12 and Mn15Cr1 high-manganese wear-resistant steels have manganese contents as high as 12% and 15% respectively. They possess both high strength and high wear resistance, and are widely used in mining machinery, metallurgical equipment, railway engineering and other fields due to their excellent wear resistance and high strength. In the smelting process, the feeding mode was optimized, and temperature control was strengthened. In the smelting process, the feeding mode was optimized and temperature control was strengthened. In the continuous casting process, the weak cooling control technology was optimized to effectively reduce the shrinkage of the continuous casting billet. In the rolling process, relying on the furnace coil unit, stable production was successfully achieved through precise pressing control and temperature-coordinated adjustment.
Focusing on the high manganese steel sector, the No. 2 Steelmaking and Rolling Operations Department will continue to deepen technological research and product optimization, promoting the high manganese steel family to achieve a dual breakthrough in scale expansion and quality improvement, and contributing key strength to the research and development and production of advanced steel materials.
