Abstract

The invention relates to a large-scale ingot casting method for preparing Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy, the invention adopts multiple-time vacuum self-consuming smelting method on the basis of routine technique, adopts a 'constant speed' finished product smelting method and adopts smelting speed control parameters to control the technological parameters in the finished product smelting process.The invention is characterized in that the smelting speed control parameter is 20-32Kg / min; the real smelting weight is on-line measured each second or according to a set time and an instant smelting speed is the ratio of the real smelting weight and the measurement time interval; if the smelting speed is higher than a desired value, the smelting current is then reduced; if the smelting speed is lower than the desired value, the smelting current is then increased. By using the control method, temperature field can be controlled effectively, distribution coefficient can be optimized, stabilization ofthe from and depth of the melting bath can be assured, which make the ingot casting sequence and solidification process stable and controllable, and homogeneity of components of large-scale ingot casting can also be assured.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a large Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy ingot. With automatic batching, material mixing, consumable electrode vacuum welding and finished product "constant melting rate melting", the stable realization of Φ900mm~Φ1050mm Ti-6Al -Industrialized mass production of large ingots of 4V titanium alloys. Background technique [0002] Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy has the advantages of high specific strength, good corrosion resistance, non-magnetic, shock and vibration resistance, good machinability and weldability, and is widely used in aviation, aerospace, ships, chemicals, marine and other fields. At present, the conventional ingot shape of the industrially produced Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy ingot is about Φ600mm~Φ700mm. Generally speaking, as the size of the ingot increases, the difficulty of smelting increases, and the composition uniformity of large ingots is often difficult to ensure. According to relevant information...
