Problems solved by technology

The advantage of this method is that large-sized titanium-aluminum targets can be produced; the disadvantage of this method is that metal impurities will inevitably increase during the production process, and the gas (C, N, O) content is high
[0005] (2) Smelting and casting method: At present, there are several methods for smelting titanium-aluminum alloys: the first is to use vacuum electron beam smelting. Vacuum consumable electric arc furnace smelting, the segregation of the titanium-aluminum alloy smelted by this method is large; the third method is to use a vacuum suspension furnace for smelting, although the titanium-aluminum alloy smelted by this method has relatively low gas and metal impurity content, but this method Secondary remelting is required, and the equipment is expensive and the energy consumption is high, resulting in high cost of smelting alloys
In addition, graphite is used as crucible material for vacuum induction smelting, but the smelted alloy ingot has a high carbon content.
In the patent application with the publication number CN1420189A, a high-purity CaO crucible is used for vacuum induction melting. This method requires two vacuuming operations, and the feeding method is cumbersome. The addition of calcium and deoxidation will increase the content of impurity elements in the alloy system. Calcium oxide inclusions remain in the alloy solution, and a large number of endogenous inclusions are formed after casting, which cannot be removed

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of metallurgical preparation, in particular to a vacuum induction melting method for a titanium-aluminum alloy target. Background technique [0002] With the advent of the era of high-speed machining in the modern machining industry, countries around the world are paying more and more attention to the application and development of coating technology. PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coating not only plays an important role in improving the performance of high-speed alloy tools, but also is essential for cemented carbide tools, because cemented carbide tools are more expensive than high-speed alloy tools, and the usage rate higher. In the PVD coating of cutting tools, titanium-aluminum alloy is a very important film material. For example, two representative coatings developed by Balzers are FUTURA NANO and X.CEED respectively, among which FUTURA NANO can make the cutting tool use under the condition of high-speed mac...
