At present, the technology of producing the steel ingot for the large forging by using the die casting has achieved certain performance, but the die casting has complex process flow and low mechanization and automation degree, so that the product quality stability is poor, the material utilization rate is low, and the material waste is serious. Continuous casting has the remarkable advantages of good casting blank quality, high production rate, good labor condition, low cost, high yield and the like, and is widely applied to the steel industry, particularly arc continuous casting. However, the arc continuous casting cannot produce some high-quality special steels because the arc continuous casting must be bent and straightened. Vertical continuous casting is beneficial to floating of inclusions in molten steel due to a special vertical structure, and a casting blank does not need to be straightened, so that the vertical continuous casting is more suitable for producing high-quality special steel. However, the existing technology of producing large-diameter and large-length round billets by using vertical continuous casting and then producing large-diameter high-quality long forged materials by forging is limited to forged materials with the diameter phi of less than or equal to 1200mm, the length L of less than or equal to 8000mm and the weight of less than or equal to 70t, and is difficult to meet the requirement of manufacturing large forged pieces.

In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below.
The embodiment of the invention provides a production method of an ultra-large vertical continuous casting billet, which comprises the following steps:
the molten steel is obtained by adopting an electric arc furnace and/or a medium frequency induction furnace, a ladle refining furnace and a VD furnace in a vacuum degassing mode, and then the ultra-large round billet is vertically and continuously cast to produce a casting blank with the diameter of phi 1201-phi 1800 mm. The ultra-large vertical continuous casting is single-flow or two-flow continuous casting, and specifically comprises the following steps:
and (2) filling the molten steel qualified for refining into a ladle (also called a ladle), transporting the ladle from the refining bay of the steelmaking branch plant to a pouring bay by a bay trolley, hoisting the ladle onto a ladle revolving platform of the vertical continuous casting machine by a crown block, covering and preserving heat, transferring the preheated tundish to a pouring position by the tundish revolving platform, and transferring the ladle to the pouring position by the ladle revolving platform.
And (4) installing the ladle long nozzle, opening the ladle sliding nozzle, and injecting molten steel into the tundish.
And opening the stopper device of the tundish, injecting the molten steel into the crystallizer 1 through the submerged nozzle, starting pouring at a pouring speed of not more than 600kg/min, and electromagnetically stirring the molten steel in the crystallizer 1 by using the external electromagnetic stirring device 3 so as to reduce the central shrinkage cavity and the central segregation of the casting blank.

The heat preservation measures are adopted to control the crystallization and solidification time of the casting blank, induction heating is carried out on the tail part of the casting blank to form hot top feeding, and finally, the hot vertical casting blank with the length L less than or equal to 13000mm is produced, belongs to a non-standard part product, and can be used for producing parts on large-scale mechanical equipment.
In the embodiment, a vertical continuous casting process is adopted, in the electromagnetic stirring process of the crystallizer 1, the electromagnetic stirring frequency is set to be lower than 5Hz, the current intensity is greater than 1000A, and the electromagnetic stirring device 3 is positioned at a certain position of the middle lower part of the crystallizer 1, so that molten steel in the crystallizer 1 reaches an ideal stirring intensity, the superheat degree of the molten steel disappears as soon as possible, the proportion of isometric crystals is improved, a long casting blank with a circular cross section, the diameter phi of which is not less than 1200mm, the length L of which is not more than 13000mm and the weight of which is not more than 260t is produced, and the size limitation of the casting.
In addition, in the present embodiment, only one set of the electromagnetic stirring device 3 is used in the vertical continuous casting process, the electromagnetic stirring device 3 is used as the electromagnetic stirrer of the mold 1 in the initial casting stage, and when the molten steel is poured to a predetermined position, the electromagnetic stirring device 3 is moved down to the vicinity of the solidification end of the cast strand to perform electromagnetic stirring at the solidification end. Through setting up dynamic electromagnetic stirring device 3 for molten steel stirring and solidification end electromagnetic stirring in crystallizer 1 improve the inside quality of casting blank by a wide margin.
