7 A comparative stuay on Properties Between cast Steet ana rorgea steer Rotary Kiln Rings February, 1996 Material Engineering Dept. meroran Plant, as profes the t}xe and the roller for votary Kiln are normally used et. the temperatuxe xange of roum temperature to 200 deg.c, nd room temperature to 100 deg.C, respectively. mneiz Life will be determined by spalling caused by contact rolling fatigue phenomena. Because the detailed comparative study on rotary kiln rings. made by casting and forging have not been done in ISH, we have studied and compared about the characteristics of casting and forging crank throw and roll by Its own data, 2, Comparison of Internal and External qualities It is needless to cay that the quality of forgings superior Ti 4 unavoidsbie appearance of. casting defects such as ) A shrinkage, blow hole, sand inclusion, etc., in casting and it ke impossible to remove ell the defects followed by =epair welding. on the contrary, it 4e easy to got sound internal ana external quality in forging by forging operation.

Comparison of Fatigue Strength There are many comparstive study reports in fatigue strength of castings and forgings, and all the reports reveal the superiority of forgings. Fig. 2 and Pig. 4 show rotating-bending fatigue strefigth test results of small eide test pieces(10 mm aia.if and medium size test pleces(60 mm 55 am), respectively. \ Roth figures clearly show the superiority of forging. | Fepecially, the medivm size Lost result of casting var}os widely, which resulting from internal defects that confirm to the quality reguirements but cannot detect by tne ndn-~ Considering the above fact, the aisference of fatigue strength in actual large size product is remarkable and reliability of forging will be higher than that of casting. Fig. 5 shows the relation between fatigue strength and hardnese in 1¥c24o forged and cast steed. In general, it is said that the fatigue strength of sound casting is about 00% of forging's. In case of existing internal defects in casting, that ratio falls to about 50% depending on the size, shape, Aistribution, characteristics of the defects tt Ti a Hl | ti mad 3 smmanciemenponnahn Fig. 3.
