Vacuum melting furnace

With the rapid development of modern industrial technology, people’s requirements for the use of mechanical parts are getting higher and higher, the more stringent the use of the environment on the metal material’s high temperature resistance, wear resistance, fatigue resistance and other properties put forward higher requirements.For some specific metals or alloys, either in preliminary research and development trials or at a later stage in mass production, the research or obtaining of high-performance metal alloys requires the support of metal melting equipment, surface heat treatment equipment, etc. Among the many special heating or melting methods, induction heating technology plays a vital role in the preparation of metal materials by melting or in the sintering of materials in certain processes, heat treatment, etc.

Vacuum induction melting furnace is a melting equipment that melts metal by induction heating under vacuum and then pours the liquid metal into a mold to obtain metal ingots. the material is to create metal bar-sticks, electrodes, flakes, wires, foils or bands depending on the user requirement.

Melting and casting in vacuum or controlled inert gas atmosphere is often required for the production of a variety of high-performance metal alloys and is essential for quality manufacturing of Ni-based super-alloys as well as Fe-, Co-, Cr-based and other special alloys.

The development of vacuum induction furnaces began around 1920 and were mainly used to smelt nickel-chrome alloys. It wasn’t until World War II that the advancement of vacuum technology was facilitated, allowing vacuum induction melting furnaces to really develop.. During this period, due to the demand for alloys, vacuum induction melting furnaces continued to move to larger capacity , from the first small capacity to very large to production capacity which can up to 10 tons.

Brief introduction of vacuum melting furnace

In order to adapt to high volume production, in addition to the change of equipment capacity, the structure of the induction furnace has evolved from a cyclic vacuum melting furnace(single-chamber vacuum furnace) on a periodic basis to a continuous or semi-continuous vacuum induction melting(double-chamber vacuum furnace) with charging, mold preparation, melting and pouring operations.

Continuous operation in a non-stop furnace saves time for loading and cooling of ingots, and continuous production increases efficiency while increasing alloy production.Better meet the needs of actual production.

The diagram shows the basic form of a vacuum induction melting furnace, where the metal material is added to the melting crucible through a rotating turret and the vacuum pumping system removes the gas from the inside of the vessel to a suitable vacuum level,When melting, the turret is rotated at an angle, the other side of the arm is aligned with the crucible, and the temperature is measured by inserting the thermocouple downward into the metal melt.The smelted metal is driven by a tilting mechanism and poured into the mold to achieve the smelting of the metal.

The whole process is simple and convenient to operate, each melting requires one to two workers to complete, the melting process can realize real-time temperature monitoring, material composition adjustment, the final metal material more in line with the process requirements.

The inner wall of the furnace is polished and has smooth surface without sharp corners and sharp edges. As long as a simple mechanical cleaning method is used, the metal volatiles and dirt produced by gasification in the melting chamber can be removed. This will not only shorten the pumping time, but also obtain a good limit vacuum.
The baffle plate is installed at the front of the exhaust port of the furnace body to prevent metal splashing from entering the vacuum pipeline.

The furnace body is installed above the electric control cabinet. The bracket of electric cabinet requires sufficient strength and stability conditions, which will not cause tilt.

Feeding system:

In order to add various elements in the process of vacuum melting, a special five- grid feeder is installed on the furnace lid. It has a special sealing cover designed to vacuum seal the feeder. Before vacuuming the container, the element is pre-placed in the feeder. When the element is added, the handwheel rotates the feeder to mark the graduation, and the element falls from the opening to the hopper. Another handle flips the hopper. After the element is sent over the crucible, a control plate opens automatically, allowing the elements in the hopper to flow from the liquid surface near the molten metal, avoiding splashing, and then automatically reset by spring torsion. Through the above device, the task of adding alloy elements can be conveniently accomplished in vacuum according to the order of feeding required.

Induction coil:

There is a crucible in the coil. There is a layer of glass cloth or asbestos cardboard between the crucible and the coil. One is to protect the coil, the other is to prevent the filler from leaking out, so as to avoid the short circuit caused by the coil touching the conductive crucible. On the other hand is to prevent the coil from being directly exposed to the heat radiation of the crucible.

The bottom of the coil is welded with three hook plates to support the refractory plate, and the refractory plate is used to support the crucible.

Rotating electrode:

The rotating electrode is a rotating sealing device, which is mainly used to introduce electric energy and pass through cooling water. The current is generated from the capacitor bank of intermediate frequency equipment, and the cable can load thousands of amps of strong current. The cable is connected to the joint outside the rotating electrode, and the copper electrode is put into the vacuum furnace body to bring the current and cooling water to the induction coil. When the electrode enters the vacuum furnace body, the vacuum rubber seal is adopted. A tilting handle is installed on the outside of the vacuum furnace, and tilting and resetting can be realized by rotating the tilting handle back and forth. The rotating electrode can rotate the coils, crucibles and smelting metals together.

Vacuum system:

The vacuum unit consists of a vacuum valve, a pipeline and a vacuum pump. A 200L diffusion pump and a Z-15 monoblock pump are used in the vacuum unit.

Water cooling system:

The water cooling system is composed of water cooling unit, pipeline and valve, etc. The water cooling system is mainly used for supplying cooling water to vacuum furnace, induction coil and molecular pump. The cooling capacity of the water cooling unit is 7.5kW, and the water supply flow is 1.5 tons / hour.

Electric contact pressure gauge is installed on the water cooling pipeline, and when the water supply is not enough or the pressure is insufficient, the alarm signal is sent out.

Others:

There is an observation window on the furnace body to observe the smelting in the melting room. A rotating baffle is installed in front of the observation window to protect the quartz glass on the observation window from metal vapor pollution. The rotating baffle is closed at normal times. The baffle can only be turned through the handle when observing.
