Description

[0002] For complex and precision castings of titanium alloy and superalloy, due to their relatively complex structures and shapes, certain deformations often occur in the structural shapes after casting. In order to eliminate the structural deformation without affecting the practical performance of the castings, the commonly used method at present is as follows: A standard heat-resistant steel orthopedic mold is made according to the shape of the casting, which consists of an upper mold and a lower mold. The side with deformation or the side with a larger deformation amount of the casting is placed upward in the lower mold, and then the upper mold is closed. A certain weight of counterweight is placed on the upper end face of the upper mold. Finally, the entire assembly (upper mold + lower mold + casting + counterweight) is placed in a vacuum heat treatment furnace, heated to the annealing temperature, and kept warm for a long time. The casting is pressed tightly by the gravity of the counterweight and the upper mold, so that the casting eliminates deformation at high temperature. As shown in Figure 1 shown, in Figure 1 A represents the counterweight.
