The invention discloses a method of continuously and automatically producing 16
magnesium-
rare earth intermediate alloys such as a
magnesium-
neodymium intermediate
alloy. The method comprises the following steps: after melting a
magnesium ingot raw material by a finery, adding a
rare earth metal material, manually deslagging, and automatically stirring and homogenizing by a
system, and sampling and testing
alloy components which are qualified; then pouring an
alloy liquid to an
ingot case of a pig moulding
machine through a
metering pump to form a continuous and automatic
ingot casting; and cooling the alloy liquid to form standard magnesium-
rare earth intermediate alloys. The key point of the invention is as follows: the method is applicable to continuous and automatic
ingot casting production of 16 magnesium-rare earth intermediate alloys such as the magnesium-
neodymium intermediate alloy, so that the labor intensity of production is reduced, and the production safety is greatly improved in
anhydrous environment production. The produced product is consistent and high in yield. According to a
crucible manufactured by a
nickel-free high temperature
alloy steel plate, carbon content is not introduced in the production process, the production efficiency is high, and the method is applicable to
continuous production on a large scale, free from environmental
pollution. Waste residues can be recycled, thereby truly realizing safe and efficient production of the magnesium-rare earth intermediate alloys on a large scale.
