With the application and construction of major equipment, such as China's high-speed rail, aerospace, and wind power, high-quality, long-life, and high-reliability requirements have been put forward for bearing steels. By introducing the current situation of inclusion control in high-performance bearing steel at home and abroad, the level and gap of domestic special steel enterprises in the field of inclusion control are analysed, and the technical prospects for the intelligent control of inclusions in high-performance bearing steel are proposed. High-performance bearing steel can be produced through the control of inclusions in non-Al-deoxidized steel and low-oxygen rare earth steel, magnesium control of inclusions in steel, and heat treatment control of inclusions in steel, providing research and development ideas and references for domestic special steel enterprises.
