The invention discloses a method for preparing a tungsten-copper alloy based on a loose-loading infiltration method. The method comprises the following specific steps of: one, grain size selection of tungsten powder, copper powder and nickel powder; two, material mixing, namely calculating the masses of the tungsten and the copper according to the mass percentage of the tungsten-copper alloy to be prepared, weighing the tungsten powder, weighing the nickel powder which accounts for 0.05 to 0.15 percent of the total mass of the tungsten and the copper and weighing ethanol which accounts for 5 to 15 percent of the total mass of the tungsten and the copper according to the grain size selected in the step one, weighing pre-adding copper powder which is 5 percent of the total mass of the tungsten and the copper, and mechanically mixing the tungsten powder, the nickel powder, the ethanol and the pre-adding copper powder weighed in the step together; three, die-filling, namely filling the mixed powder into a graphite die, dropping gasoline into the die, and tamping the mixture to obtain a blank material; four, infiltration sintering, namely performing the infiltration sintering in a sintering furnace; and five, demoulding. The tungsten-copper alloy prepared by the method has sizes, shapes and components of any requirements, and is prepared without a steel die and a special pressing or forming device.
