Abstract

A method for smelting magnesium alloy contains the following steps: preparing material, heating the preheating furnace, melting furnace, alloying furnace and standing holding furnace respectively, and introducing protective gas respectively, preheating magnesium ingot to 120-600DEG C in preheating furnace, adding into the melting furnace for several times for melting, keeping the temperature at 660-780DEG C, introducing the magnesium fusing liquid into the alloying furnace, keeping the temperature at 660-780DEG C, melting other alloy elements with the melting furnace, refining, keeping the temperature of the melting liquid at 720-730DEG C, introducing into the alloying furnace to mix with magnesium fusing liquid, blowing argon for refining, transferring into standing holding furnace, keeping the temperature of the melting liquid at 680-860DEG C, casting magnesium alloying melting liquid to ingot, or cast continuously or semi-continuous. The invention can prevents oxidization and loss of the metal, reduced impurities in magnesium alloy, and improves the quality and performance of magnesium alloy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a magnesium alloy. Background technique [0002] Magnesium alloy has very significant advantages in many occasions due to its low density (it is the smallest density among practical structural metals). Especially in aviation, aerospace, and automobiles, motorcycles, high-speed / light rail trains and other transportation vehicles, it has irreplaceable advantages. The low density of the components can save energy, and it also has the advantage of small inertia in the case of high-speed movement, which has a significant effect on the starting and braking of vehicles. [0003] However, the traditional smelting method of magnesium alloys is to use a melting furnace to melt all the magnesium ingots to be smelted at one time, and then directly add other alloying elements in the form of pure metals or intermediate alloys to the molten magnesium for alloying. Since all magnesium ingots are heated and melted at th...
