Description of the Related Art A thixocasting method in which a raw material is heated to a semi-melting temperature range and molded is generally known as a method for producing a semi-melted molded article. Compared with die casting products, the products of this production method have less casting segregation and internal defects, and can be near net shape and heat treated, so they have recently attracted attention as a manufacturing method that can produce lightweight and thin products. It is a technology. As a method for casting the billet, which is the material of the semi-molten molded product, the molten metal is electromagnetically stirred in the semi-melting temperature range during the billet production known as the pesine or Almax method, and the primary crystal α The method "method A" of crushing and spheroidizing is generally used. In addition, by adding a larger amount of Al-Ti-B than that conventionally added during casting, the growth of primary crystal α until the solidification of the molten metal is suppressed, a fine billet is cast, and then the billet is A method "method B" in which the primary crystal α is spheroidized by raising the temperature to the melting temperature range is also reported. In addition, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-134845 also has a method “method C” in which a billet is subjected to cold form forging to introduce a processing strain and the temperature is raised to a melting temperature range in the latter half thereof to make the primary crystal α spherical. .

Then, a very huge capital investment is required because electromagnetic stirring is required. Further, since it is necessary to set fine manufacturing conditions for each material type, the working process becomes very complicated and the manufacturing cost becomes very high. Further, in the “method B”, since a large amount of Al—Ti—B is added, there is a problem that quality instability occurs due to TiB 2 settling in the melting furnace. Further, in "method C", a processing strain is introduced by cold mold forging, but a very large press pressure is required for forging, so that the manufacturing cost becomes high. Further, it is difficult to introduce a uniform processing strain into the material, and it is difficult to make the material shape uniform after forging. In addition, when manufacturing a material having a small diameter of 100 mm or less, a billet material having a smaller diameter is required, so that the material diameter is limited. Further, since the forging press machine generally has a forging stroke of 500 mm or less, when manufacturing a material length exceeding 500 mm, it is necessary to introduce a special pressing machine, which requires a huge capital investment. There is.
