Problems solved by technology

During the smelting process, the molten metal will be oxidized and gettered. Even if a covering agent is used to cover the surface of the molten metal during the smelting process, the oxidation and gettering cannot be well alleviated, which will lead to nickel-based alloys. There are a large number of pores in the parts, and a large number of inclusions will be generated on the grain boundaries of the nickel-based alloy parts; The action of force will produce strong stirring. Due to the existence of electromagnetic stirring force, the surface of the molten metal will have a hump phenomenon. The hump will destroy the slag covering the surface of the molten metal, so that the slag cannot completely cover the entire molten metal. The surface of the molten metal, the surface of the molten metal exposed in the air will be oxidized and form metal oxides, which will inevitably greatly reduce the comprehensive mechanical properties of the nickel-based alloy parts obtained after smelting
In order to reduce oxidation and gettering, vacuum melting or electroslag melting is generally used when melting nickel-based alloys. However, vacuum melting equipment and electroslag melting equipment are complex in structure, expensive, difficult to operate, and have many equipment failures, which are time-consuming and labor-intensive. The production efficiency is low, and it is difficult to meet the production of large-scale, complex structure and large-scale nickel-based alloy parts, so it is not suitable for large-scale production

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for smelting a nickel-based alloy by adopting a non-vacuum induction furnace. The method for smelting the nickel-based alloy by adopting the non-vacuum induction furnace comprises the following steps: firstly transforming a medium-frequency induction furnace, then putting materials to be molten into a crucible to be molten, wherein frequency of the medium-frequency induction furnace is controlled to be 1868 minus or plus 5 HZ; continuously injecting inert liquid into the medium-frequency induction furnace in a material smelting process and carrying out deoxidization on molten metal, after the materials are completely molten, carrying out deoxidization for 10-15 minutes, wherein temperature of the molten metal to be 1530 minus or plus 5 DEG C; increasing temperature of the medium-frequency induction furnace to be 1550 minus or plus 5 DEG C after deoxidization is completed, then adding a solid non solution treatment agent into the molten metal, wherein mass ratio of the non solution treatment agent to the molten metal is (2:1000)-(3:1000), and pouring after the non solution treatment agent is completely molten in the molten metal, so that the nickel-based alloy is obtained. The method for smelting the nickel-based alloy by adopting the non-vacuum induction furnace has the advantages that oxidation and inspiration phenomena can be effectively reduced under non-vacuum high temperature condition, and a hump phenomenon can be effectively eliminated.
