Problems solved by technology

The existing electroslag remelting technology usually puts one casting into the electroslag furnace for electroslag remelting, and then puts the second one after the electroslag is finished, so that the electroslag remelting is carried out one by one, which not only wastes energy and raw materials, it also reduces the purity and density of the ingot, and the production efficiency is low; the existing electroslag furnace is usually designed according to the traditional operation process, without the functions of pause, speed regulation and current regulation
[0003] CN 102094125B disclosed a process for preparing magnesium alloys by electroslag remelting on January 09, 2013. The method is to use the smelted magnesium alloys to be prepared as consumable electrode rods, and put them into an electroslag furnace for electroslag remelting. For slag smelting, the working voltage is 25-40V, and the working current is 0.8-5kA. After electroslag smelting, it is rapidly solidified into magnesium alloy ingots through a water-cooled crystallizer; Electroslag remelting, the final magnesium alloy ingot has less purity and density, and increases production time, wasting energy and raw materials
[0004] CN 103173630A disclosed an electroslag remelting furnace on June 26, 2013, including a lifting platform and a platform lifting device for driving the lifting platform to move up and down. The lifting platform is provided with a motorized flat car, and the top of the motorized flat car is provided with a crystallizer. There are two uprights on the side of the platform lifting device, each upright is equipped with a cross arm, the free end of the cross arm is provided with a chuck for clamping electrodes, a three-phase transformer is installed between the two uprights, and the lead-out wire It is connected with various electrode clamps; however, the electroslag remelting furnace cannot adjust the remelting current at any time, and is not suitable for the electroslag remelting method of castings whose current is gradually lost during the melting process
