Abstract

The invention discloses a method and equipment for preparing spherical metal powder by using a plasma atomization technology. According to the method, plasma jet is used as a heat source to heat and melt a wire, the wire is fed in an inclined and bidirectional mode; and meanwhile, a direct-current constant-voltage power supply is applied to the wire, so that electric arcs are generated in an anode duct, and the wire is heated in an auxiliary mode. The invention further discloses equipment for preparing the spherical metal powder based on the plasma atomization technology. The equipment comprises a direct-current constant-current plasma generator power supply, a direct-current constant-voltage auxiliary power supply, a plasma generator, an inclined wire feeding lengthened anode, a double-wire feeder, a vacuum atomizing chamber, a powder collecting device and a vacuum pump. By using the method and the equipment, the double-wire feeding system, the anode inside inclined wire feeding mode and the power supply assisted heating wire melting method are introduced, so that the powder production efficiency is improved, and the equipment power is reduced.
