Abstract

The invention discloses an argon gas protection rotary blowing refining method for low-pressure casting of aluminum alloy melt. The method comprises the following steps that an aluminum alloy materialis melted; a refining device is adopted for carrying out argon gas blowing refining on molten aluminum after melting is finished, and molten aluminum alloy metal is left to stand after refining is finished; and a mold shell model waits to be poured; and a casting is poured by adopting a low-pressure casting device connected with an air compressor through a low-pressure casting process. The problem that the content of the aluminum alloy melt casted by low-pressure casting is large is solved, the density and pressure bearing capacity of the aluminum alloy are improved, the situation that the metallurgical quality is unstable and even scrapping occurs due to the fact that the aluminum alloy melt is large in gas content is avoided, so that the production cost of castings is greatly reduced; and the hydrogen content of every 100 g of a sample after refining is less than 0.1 mL, and the production efficiency is improved while the gas content of the aluminum alloy melt is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a low-pressure pouring aluminum alloy melt swirl-blow refining method with argon protection. The method is suitable for low-pressure pouring and uses argon swirl-blow to refine the aluminum alloy melt. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the aerospace field, the requirements for the performance of materials and the production efficiency of parts are getting higher and higher. Aluminum alloy parts have been used more and more in recent years because of their light weight, good corrosion resistance, good tensile properties, and easy rapid casting production. In particular, Al-Si alloys have the characteristics of high mechanical properties, easy forming, and excellent volume stability, and have been widely used in various domestic light engines. In recent years, the production of high-performance aluminum alloy castings in China mostly adopts the anti-gravity pouring method. Anti-gravity casting uses exte...
