Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of investment casting titanium alloys, and specifically relates to a water-soluble waxing wax cylinder suitable for investment casting wax patterns of large structural parts. Background Art

[0002] The products of titanium alloy investment castings are getting bigger and bigger in shape and more and more complex in structure. The first step is to prepare the wax mold of the product. For castings with complex inner cavity structures and molds that cannot be cored, water-soluble cores are often used when wax is shot. It has the following advantages: ① The material is environmentally friendly, non-corrosive to the skin of production workers, and has no odor; ② The shrinkage rate is smaller than that of urea cores, only one thousandth, and the size is stable; ③ The wax shooting parameters are stable, and the surface of the production core is smooth; ④ The water-soluble wax contains fibers, has high strength and high toughness, and the surface of the core is not easy to crack ⑤ Low hygroscopicity and easy to store. However, it still has environmental pollution. The zinc oxide it contains is toxic and needs to be treated at a hazardous or special waste treatment point. The existing wax melting tank only puts the casting into the wax melting tank and waits for it to melt naturally. The melting efficiency is low, and the wax melting liquid cannot be reused, so it needs to be replaced to ensure the wax melting efficiency. Therefore, a new type of wax-melting cylinder is developed for large casting structural parts, which uses a new wax-melting method to solve the problems of low melting efficiency and reuse of wax-melting liquid. This is also a common problem that is urgently needed to be solved in the application of investment casting technology for large and complex structural parts.

[0003] At present, for large structural parts, water-soluble wax can better ensure the wax modeling of complex inner cavities. It can not only melt in the wax melting liquid but also has no effect on the wax model. However, in the process of melting water-soluble wax, the selection of the wax melting cylinder is relatively important. It needs to be able to fully contact with the liquid and have a certain water flow to ensure the wax melting efficiency. Otherwise, the long wax melting time increases the time cost, and the wax melting liquid in the wax melting cylinder needs to be reused to reduce production costs. For this reason, the present invention proposes a water-soluble wax melting cylinder suitable for investment casting of wax models of large structural parts. Summary of the invention
