Description

一种感应熔炼间歇拉锭式半连续铸造的钛合金铸锭方法A titanium alloy ingot casting method for induction melting intermittent ingot drawing semi-continuous casting

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及金属材料加工领域,特别是指一种改善钛合金铸锭成分均匀性的感应熔炼间歇拉锭式半连续铸造的钛合金铸锭方法。The invention relates to the field of metal material processing, in particular to a titanium alloy ingot casting method for induction melting intermittent ingot drawing semi-continuous casting which improves the composition uniformity of titanium alloy ingots.

背景技术Background technique

钛合金因其比强度高、耐腐蚀性好,在航空航天领域有广阔的应用前景,可用于生产大型复杂薄壁锻件。锻造用钛合金铸锭要求铸锭成分均匀、致密度高、组织均匀。目前钛合金铸锭基本采用真空自耗电弧(VAR)炉进行熔炼,一般经过3次以上VAR熔炼才能达到航空航天级锻造用钛合金铸锭要求。然而VAR法不仅生产周期长,对熔炼原料要求高,而且部分原料容易未充分熔化直接与铸锭基体熔合,导致铸锭局部偏析严重,即使采用多次VAR法熔炼也不易消除,因而导致VAR法无法满足钛合金铸锭的高质量熔炼要求。Due to its high specific strength and good corrosion resistance, titanium alloy has broad application prospects in the aerospace field, and can be used to produce large complex thin-walled forgings. Titanium alloy ingots for forging require uniform composition, high density and uniform structure. At present, titanium alloy ingots are basically smelted in a vacuum consumable arc (VAR) furnace. Generally, more than 3 times of VAR smelting can be used to meet the requirements of titanium alloy ingots for aerospace grade forging. However, the VAR method not only has a long production cycle, but also has high requirements for smelting raw materials, and some raw materials are easily not fully melted and directly fused with the ingot matrix, resulting in serious local segregation of the ingot, which is not easy to eliminate even if multiple VAR methods are used. It cannot meet the high-quality smelting requirements of titanium alloy ingots.

真空感应熔炼法可以在真空条件下,通过感应加热、电磁搅拌使熔池温度分布和成分均匀化,减少宏观、微观偏析,且真空感应熔炼对原料要求较低,可确保熔炼原料充分熔化,有效去除低、高密度夹杂,通过一次熔炼即可实现对钛、锆等高化学活性合金的高质量熔炼。但目前真空感应熔炼法熔炼高化学活性合金所采用的水冷铜坩埚透磁率及电源功率有限,可用水冷铜坩埚内径尺寸受限,单批次熔炼无法生产大型铸锭,最大铸锭重量单批次约为50kg。中国专利202010743280.0公开了一种钛及钛合金铸锭的真空感应熔炼方法,该方法实现了单批次熔炼最大100kg重量的钛及钛合金铸锭,且通过真空连续加料、感应熔炼、连续拉锭实现了重量大于100kg、直径可达

Figure BDA0003982996980000011
的均质、高纯净度的钛及钛合金铸锭制备,与VAR熔炼法对比,对钛合金原料质量要求相对较低,且无需压制电极,可通过一次熔炼获得高质量钛合金铸锭。该方法制备的钛合金铸锭轴向上不同位置的化学成分基本一致,但从铸锭多个径向上的成分分布还有待进一步提高。中国专利202110826723.7公开了一种钛合金或锆合金铸锭用的真空感应熔炼炉及铸锭方法,该方法通过在分瓣式中空水冷铜坩埚的正下方与可升降的水冷铜拉锭机构配合,用以辅助机构可实现不破坏炉内真空的间歇拉锭式半连续铸造方法,能够生产出大规格的钛合金或锆合金铸锭,该方法生产的铸锭可达500kg甚至更高,随着铸锭规格提高,该方法制备的大型铸锭成分均匀性有待改善,且间歇拉锭式半连续铸造的铸锭上的铸锭衔接区成分均匀性不易控制。The vacuum induction melting method can make the temperature distribution and composition of the molten pool uniform through induction heating and electromagnetic stirring under vacuum conditions, reduce macroscopic and microscopic segregation, and vacuum induction melting has low requirements for raw materials, which can ensure that the melting raw materials are fully melted, effectively Remove low and high-density inclusions, and achieve high-quality melting of titanium, zirconium and other highly chemically active alloys through one melting. However, at present, the water-cooled copper crucible used in the vacuum induction melting method for smelting highly chemically active alloys has limited magnetic permeability and power supply, and the inner diameter of the usable water-cooled copper crucible is limited. A single batch of smelting cannot produce large ingots, and the maximum ingot weight can be obtained in a single batch. About 50kg. Chinese patent 202010743280.0 discloses a vacuum induction melting method for titanium and titanium alloy ingots. This method realizes the melting of titanium and titanium alloy ingots with a maximum weight of 100kg in a single batch, and through continuous vacuum feeding, induction melting, and continuous ingot pulling Achieved a weight greater than 100kg and a diameter of up to
Figure BDA0003982996980000011
Compared with the VAR melting method, the requirements for the quality of titanium alloy raw materials are relatively low, and there is no need to press electrodes, and high-quality titanium alloy ingots can be obtained through one-time melting. The chemical composition in different axial positions of the titanium alloy ingot prepared by this method is basically the same, but the composition distribution in multiple radial directions of the ingot needs to be further improved. Chinese patent 202110826723.7 discloses a vacuum induction melting furnace and ingot casting method for titanium alloy or zirconium alloy ingot casting. The method cooperates with a liftable water-cooled copper ingot pulling mechanism directly below the split-type hollow water-cooled copper crucible. The intermittent ingot-drawing semi-continuous casting method, which can be used as an auxiliary mechanism without breaking the vacuum in the furnace, can produce large-scale titanium alloy or zirconium alloy ingots. The ingots produced by this method can reach 500kg or even higher. As the specifications of ingots increase, the composition uniformity of large ingots prepared by this method needs to be improved, and the composition uniformity of the ingot joint area on the ingot of intermittent ingot-drawing semi-continuous casting is not easy to control.

采用感应熔炼间歇拉锭式半连续铸造的钛合金铸锭方法,在感应熔炼过程中对不同熔体量的凝固铸锭移动相同的下行距离,容易使前一批次原料熔炼的铸锭,因感应加热而发生原子扩散甚至发生重熔,使铸锭衔接区产生成分不均匀分布,造成铸锭衔接区形成局部成分偏析缺陷。此外,若感应加热的功率与水冷铜坩埚的冷却效果没有搭配得当,尤其随着铸锭直径增大,铸锭内部沿径向极易产生成分分布的不均匀性,形成难以控制的偏析缺陷,在后处理中也不易消除,严重影响零件的性能。The titanium alloy ingot casting method adopts the induction melting intermittent ingot drawing semi-continuous casting method. During the induction melting process, the solidified ingots with different melt amounts move the same downward distance, which is easy to melt the ingots from the previous batch of raw materials. Atom diffusion or even remelting occurs due to induction heating, resulting in uneven distribution of components in the joint area of ingots, resulting in local composition segregation defects in the joint area of ingots. In addition, if the power of induction heating is not properly matched with the cooling effect of the water-cooled copper crucible, especially as the diameter of the ingot increases, the inhomogeneity of the composition distribution along the radial direction will easily occur inside the ingot, forming segregation defects that are difficult to control. It is also not easy to eliminate in post-processing, which seriously affects the performance of parts.

为了改善感应熔炼间歇拉锭钛合金铸锭衔接区和铸锭径向的成分均匀性,本领域亟待研发一种新的工艺控制方法,实现对感应熔炼间歇拉锭式半连续铸造的钛合金铸锭的高质量熔炼,更好的满足航空航天级钛合金锻件的生产要求。In order to improve the compositional uniformity of the ingot joint area and the radial direction of the ingot in the induction melting intermittent ingot drawing titanium alloy ingot, it is urgent to develop a new process control method in this field to realize the titanium alloy casting of the induction melting intermittent ingot drawing semi-continuous casting. The high-quality smelting of ingots can better meet the production requirements of aerospace-grade titanium alloy forgings.
