The invention relates to the technical field of electroslag remelting, in particular to a stable arcing method in an electroslag remelting process, which sequentially comprises the following stages: a) a pretreatment stage: preparing an arc striking
slag agent; uniformly adding an arc striking
slag agent into the bottom of the crystallizer; b) a pre-arcing stage: applying an
initial current% to keep the distance between the lower end of the consumable
electrode and the surface of the arc striking
slag agent at 5-10mm, adding body slag into the crystallizer in batches, and meanwhile, lifting the consumable
electrode to enable the temperature of the
surface layer of a slag bath to reach 1200-1300 DEG C; c) a stable arcing stage: increasing the current to 70-80% of the rated remelting current in a stepped manner, and stabilizing the
voltage of the slag bath at 80-150V; the length of the
electric arc is maintained to be 15-20 mm; and d) a
transition stage: increasing the current to a rated remelting current, slightly stirring, controlling the temperature of the slag bath to 1600-1800 DEG C, and converting into a normal electroslag remelting mode when the
melting rate is greater than or equal to 95%. The method has the advantages of stable arcing, small
thermal shock, shortening of the arcing time and improvement of the production efficiency.
