Abstract

A VAR smelting method for preparing a full columnar crystal titanium alloy ingot. The second VAR smelted titanium alloy ingot is used as a consumable electrode for another vacuum arc melting; during the preparation process, the inlet water temperature and flow rate are controlled, and the The feeding stage is divided into the first, middle and last stages to reduce the melting current rate in stages, and to improve the quality of the alloy ingot by controlling the ingot cooling process and the size of the molten pool. The preparation method of the present invention can obtain a titanium alloy ingot with vertical full columnar crystals, and the deviation of the main element content can be controlled within the range of 2000ppm, which effectively improves the forging failure caused by the inhomogeneity of the transverse edge and center of the titanium alloy ingot. Many, the problem of uneven structure at the edge and center of the bar is suitable for industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a VAR smelting method for a full columnar crystal titanium alloy ingot, which belongs to the field of non-ferrous metal processing, and is suitable for producing an industrialized titanium alloy ingot with a whole columnar crystal and uniform structure and composition, especially a method using vacuum self-consumption The manufacturing method of electric arc furnace melting. Background technique [0002] Titanium alloy is a key metal material developed in the 1950s. Because of its high specific strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and high thermal strength, it is widely used in petroleum, chemical, ship, metallurgy and other fields. One of the materials of choice for advanced aircraft structures and engine rotating parts. [0003] During the smelting of titanium alloy VAR (vacuum arc melting), under the conventional smelting process, due to the characteristics of fast cooling at the edge of the molten pool and slow coolin...
