Abstract

The invention discloses a feeding method for improving the uniformity of components of a head of a TC4 cast ingot. The method comprises the following steps: proportioning sponge titanium and an intermediate alloy according to a proportion required by GB / T3620.1; mixing the materials and pressing the materials into an electrode block; after carrying out vacuum plasma welding on the electrode block,carrying out vacuum arc furnace smelting, wherein in the smelting process, the residual weight and the argon filling pressure of the electrode are strictly controlled in the third time smelting feeding stage; and finally, carrying out surface machining to obtain a finished product cast ingot. The feeding method disclosed by the invention solves the problems that the center Al element of the existing phi720mm specification TC4 cast ingot is relatively low and the phase transformation point of the cast ingot is greatly deviated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of non-ferrous metal processing, and relates to a feeding method for improving the component uniformity of a TC4 ingot head. Background technique [0002] TC4 alloy is an α+β-type titanium alloy with excellent comprehensive properties, high plasticity and impact toughness, and is often used in important parts in aviation, aerospace and other fields. TC4 titanium alloy ingots are generally prepared by vacuum consumable arc melting, and the ingots whose composition and structure meet the requirements are obtained after three times of melting. Since the composition of the ingot has an important influence on the phase transition point, and the TC4 alloy is a hard-to-deform material, its microstructure and properties after forging are sensitive to forging thermal parameters and difficult to control. Therefore, the accuracy of its phase transition point is an important basis for its forging process. At present, ...
