Abstract

The invention provides equipment and a method for casting a plurality of aluminum alloy ingots with small diameters by using vertical direct chilling casting (DC) and relates to the equipment and the method for casting the aluminum alloy ingots, which aim to solve the problems of low consistency of metal temperatures, low water cooling uniformity and high possibility of ingot suspension or tension fracture and flow running in each crystallizer in the process of casting the aluminum alloy ingots with the small diameters by the conventional technology for casting the plurality of aluminum alloy ingots with the small diameters by using the vertical DC. The method comprises the following steps of: communicating all branch outlets on runners with a plurality of upper end inlets of hot top caps correspondingly one by one; communicating the lower end outlet of each hot top cap with a crystallizer inlet of the crystallizer, wherein the distances between a flow storage slot and the runners of all crystallizers are same; heating a heat preserving sleeve to the temperature of between 100 and 150 DEG C; opening the outlet of a smelting furnace, feeding molten aluminum alloy into all the crystallizers through the runners, and performing water cooling; stopping for 5 to 10 seconds after the liquid level of the molten aluminum alloy in the runners reaches a preset position; and moving an ingot guiding device downwards. The surface of each ingot is smooth, does not have cracks and has small segregation tumors, and each ingot does not have air pores, is not loose and has small grains.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to equipment and a method for casting aluminum alloy ingots, and belongs to the technical field of direct water-cooled semi-continuous casting of aluminum alloys. Background technique [0002] The invention of DC (Direct Chilling Casting) casting has greatly promoted the development of aluminum alloy processing technology. Since then, in addition to the production of thin slabs by casting and rolling and belt continuous casting, almost all aluminum alloy ingots for pressure processing have been prepared by DC casting technology. [0003] Aluminum alloy ingots are usually cast by vertical DC casting, and in order to improve productivity, multiple continuous castings are used. However, the diameter of vertical continuous casting round ingots is usually above Ф100mm [Zhou Jiarong, Aluminum alloy melting and casting questions and answers [M], Beijing, Metallurgical Industry Press, 1987, 177]. Casting ingots smaller than this size is ...
