[0003] Vacuum induction gas atomization powder making equipment (VIGA) is mainly used to prepare high-performance iron-based, nickel-based, cobalt-based and other advanced metal and alloy powder materials. The vacuum induction melting inert gas atomization technology process is based on the requirements of metal powder composition. The alloy materials prepared in a certain ratio are placed in the crucible in the vacuum induction gas atomization powder making furnace, and smelted under vacuum conditions. After the alloy ingredients are melted to form molten metal, the smelting chamber is filled with inert gas (usually argon) for protection, and the molten metal is poured into the tundish and enters the guide nozzle and nozzle. At this time, the melt flow is atomized by high-pressure gas, and the atomized metal droplets solidify and settle in the atomization tower to form metal powder.
[0004] The alloy ingredients are melted under vacuum conditions. During the melting process, it is inconvenient to carry out secondary feeding because there is no special secondary feeding device. Therefore, secondary feeding can only be carried out according to its composition after the melting is completed and the alloy is taken out of the furnace, which wastes energy and affects production.
