7 results about "Vacuum arc remelting" patented technology

Vacuum arc remelting (VAR) is a secondary melting process for production of metal ingots with elevated chemical and mechanical homogeneity for highly demanding applications. The VAR process has revolutionized the specialty traditional metallurgical techniques industry, and has made possible incredibly controlled materials used in the biomedical, aviation, and aerospace fields.

A method for smelting a large-size fe-based superalloy for gas turbine

ActiveCN121183253Bcontrol burnoutprevent overproductionIncreasing energy efficiencySuperalloyMolten steel
This invention discloses a smelting method for large-size Fe-based superalloys for gas turbines, comprising two steps: casting metal raw materials into 710mm electrode rods in a vacuum induction furnace, and then remelting the electrode rods in a vacuum arc remelting furnace to produce 810mm steel ingots. This invention employs a combined vacuum induction melting and vacuum arc remelting (VIM+VAR) process, which effectively controls Ti element burn-off to ensure its content meets standards, and avoids excessive formation of Ti-based carbonitrides, fundamentally mitigating the negative impact on the purity of the molten steel.

Remelting plant

PCT designated stageWO2026109318A1Electric discharge heatingCrucible furnacesElectric arc furnaceElectro-slag remelting
The present invention relates to remelting plants for metals, such as vacuum arc furnaces (vacuum arc remelting, VAR) and electro slag remelting plants (electro slag remelting, ESR), which have one or more melting locations. The plants have a uniformly low overall height and allow weighing with the highest precision. For this purpose, they are provided with a non-coaxially driven electrode rod (140) and a weighing device (230, 240) arranged laterally. The electrode is centered without generating transverse forces which have a negative influence on the plant structure and the weighing result.

Invar alloy precision strip for semiconductor display and preparation method and application thereof

This invention relates to the field of precision alloy material processing technology, and discloses an Invar alloy precision strip for semiconductor displays, its preparation method, and applications. This invention controls sulfur content at the source and combines this with microalloying by adding 0.002–0.005 wt.% rare earth cerium (Ce) to strengthen grain boundaries and improve thermoplasticity. It innovatively employs an ultra-high purity smelting route of "vacuum induction melting (VIM) + two vacuum arc remelting (double VAR)" combined with intermediate forging to remove non-metallic inclusions such as oxides and reduce gas content, obtaining ultra-high purity ingots. Finally, through a multi-stage high-temperature diffusion forging, controlled rolling and cooling, multi-stage intermediate annealing, and precision cold rolling, a precision strip with a thickness of 0.10 mm is prepared. Through the above process, the strip prepared by this invention has extremely high purity, a uniform and fine microstructure (grain size 8–10), and excellent surface quality and shape, fully meeting the stringent requirements of semiconductor display devices for substrates.
