The aim of the invention is to be able to produce dual-phase steels under
local conditions even in the existing cooling section of a continuous casting
and rolling plant by means of controlled cooling of the hot-rolled strip in
two cooling stages following the forming process. Said aim is achieved by
respecting the chemical composition of the initial steel within precisely
defined limits and cooling in two stages from a finished rolled strip
temperature Tfinish of A3 -100K < Tfinish < A3 -50K to a coiling strip
temperature Tcoiling of < 300 ~C (< initial martensite temperature), the
cooling speed V1,2 in both cooling stages ranging between 30 and 150 K/s,
preferably between 50 and 90 K/s. The first cooling stage is carried out until
the cooling curve enters the ferrite range, whereupon the heat released by the
transformation of the austenite into ferrite is used for isothermally holding
the obtained strip temperature Tconst during a holding time of = 5 s until
the beginning of the second cooling stage.
L'objectif de l'invention est de permettre la production d'aciers biphasés par un refroidissement contrôlé en deux étapes du feuillard laminé à chaud, à l'issue du formage, quelle que soit la longueur de la section de refroidissement de l'installation de laminage de coulée continue et quelles que soient les conditions locales. A cet effet, outre le maintien de la composition chimique de l'acier de base dans des limites définies de façon précise, l'invention se caractérise en ce que le refroidissement en deux étapes est effectué d'une température de laminage final T¿finish? telle que A¿3? - 100 K < T¿finish? < A¿3? - 50 K à une température d'enroulement T¿coiling? < 300 ·C (< température de départ du martensite), la vitesse de refroidissement V¿1?,¿2? au cours des deux étapes de refroidissement étant comprise entre 30 et 150 K/s, de préférence entre 50 et 90 K/s. La première étape de refroidissement a lieu jusqu'à ce que la courbe de refroidissement entre dans la plage de la ferrite, puis la chaleur dégagée par la conversion de l'austénite en ferrite est utilisée pour maintenir de façon isothermique la température de feuillard atteinte T¿const.? pendant un temps de maintien <= 5 s jusqu'au début de la seconde étape de refroidissement.
