Problems solved by technology

The above technologies realize the application of electromagnetic field by applying current in a single load coil, but due to the skin effect of electromagnetic in the metal melt to be treated, in order to achieve the technical effect, it is necessary to apply a large current in the load coil, even so , it is often difficult to achieve the desired technical effect when a large volume of melt is solidified
[0005] Zhang Qin and Guo Shijie's research shows that by installing two excitation coils with alternating current and direct current in the semi-continuous casting mold to generate a stable magnetic field and an alternating magnetic field, combined with an electromagnetic guide core, the 7075 aluminum alloy or AZ80 The forced oscillation of the magnesium alloy melt can significantly refine its solidification structure and suppress segregation and cracks. However, due to the use of two sets of coils, one is bulky and is not conducive to the layout of the crystallizer, and the other is two sets of coils. The physical distance of the coil also reduces its coupling effect. At the same time, because the iron core placed inside the coil also significantly increases the complexity of the semi-continuous casting liquid injection process, it only stays in the laboratory research stage and is difficult to realize industrialization. application

Abstract

The invention discloses an electromagnetic semicontinuous casting device and a casting method thereof. The electromagnetic semicontinuous casting device comprises a crucible smelting furnace, a crucible standing furnace, a flow control mechanism, a split-flow device, an electromagnetic crystallizer system and a vertical semicontinuous casting machine, wherein the electromagnetic crystallizer system is a metal inner sleeve crystallizer system in which a group of build-in excitation coil is fixed, and comprises a metal inner sleeve, a cooling water cavity, the excitation coil, an oil supply system, an oil distribution system and a protective gas ring. According to the electromagnetic semicontinuous casting device disclosed by the invention, through a method of adjusting the frequency of electrical current, duty ratio and average current strength, the electrical current in a unique wave shape is formed in the single excitation coil placed in the cooling cavity of a crystallizer, so that desired forced convection or shaking effect is formed in the crystallizer with low current intensity; the grain of ingot blank is significantly refined; and columnar crystals are significantly reduced or eliminated to lower macroscopic segregation and realize the technical effect of low-stress casting. Under the condition of similar functional effects, the size of the electromagnetic crystallizer system is one third to one half of that of an original electromagnetic crystallizer system.

Background technique [0002] Magnesium alloys have the advantages of low density, high specific strength, large specific modulus of elasticity, good heat dissipation, good shock absorption, greater impact load capacity than aluminum alloys, and good resistance to organic matter and alkali corrosion, so magnesium alloys are used in transportation. It has broad application prospects in the fields of transportation, weaponry, aerospace, computer communications, and consumer electronics. However, magnesium alloys have problems such as low strength, poor plastic deformation ability, and poor corrosion resistance, which have become obstacles to expanding the application of magnesium alloys.
