Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a method for producing helical springs or stabilisers consisting of steel. According to said method, the parent material is heated to a temperature in excess of the re-crystallisation temperature, the structure is austenitised, held at an equalised temperature and then formed and subsequently quenched to form martensite and tempered. Round steel bars, whose re-crystallisation temperature is adjusted over the bar length in a compensation furnace, constitute the parent material. The round steel bars are subsequently re-modelled by cross-rolling, remaining substantially straight and after the critical deformation degree has been exceeded are subjected to dynamic re-crystallisation processes. The round steel bars are then subjected to a post-heating process above the Ac3 temperature, in order to undergo a complete static re-crystallisation, are wound to form a helical spring or bent to form a stabiliser and are finally quenched from the austenitic state to form martensite and tempered.
