The invention provides a spherical
seed crystal, a spherical
seed crystal preparation method and a mold shell structure for preparing a
single crystal blade, and relates to the technical field of
single crystal blades. The preparation method of the spherical
seed crystal comprises the following steps: S1, preparing a seed
crystal string
wax mold: preparing a plurality of spherical seed
crystal monomer wax molds according to the size of the spherical seed
crystal and combining the spherical seed crystal
monomer wax molds into the seed crystal string wax mold; s2, a mold shell is prepared, specifically, a
chassis wax mold, a crystal selector, a seed crystal string wax mold and a pouring gate are sequentially connected to form a group tree, and the mold shell is prepared; and S3, installing the calibrated
initial seed crystal in the mold shell, drawing the seed crystal in a
vacuum furnace at a
constant speed to obtain a
single crystal seed crystal bar generated by
directional solidification, cooling, cleaning the shell, marking orientation,
cutting and
polishing to obtain the spherical seed crystal. According to the spherical seed crystal, the use efficiency of the seed crystal is improved, the universal adaptability of the seed crystal is greatly improved, the seed crystal is spherical, and the shape difference caused by
cutting in a specific direction is avoided, so that the preparation of a wax mold and a mold shell is more unified and convenient.
