本发明公开一种VAR炉+7枪冷阴极EB炉联合生产TC4钛合金圆锭/扁锭的方法,按国标规定成分范围内取平均值后作为基准值,然后将Al元素的基准值增加,V元素的基准值下降后作为压块料的配比成分。按配比进行合金包的包制,并将海绵钛与合金包压制成电极块,采用等离子焊机将电极块焊接成长电极,并用VAR炉熔炼成一次铸锭,再将VAR炉熔炼的一次锭用7枪冷阴极EB炉进行第二次熔炼,即可获得超大规格高品质TC4钛合金圆锭/扁锭。本发明操作方便、能实现铝钒元素的控制,并能大幅度提升TC4钛合金的铸锭中铝钒元素的稳定性,实现传统TC4钛合金产品的品质得以进一步的提高,使产品获得良好的市场竞争能力。
The invention discloses a method for co-producing TC4 titanium alloy round ingots/flat ingots through a VAR furnace and a 7-gun cold cathode EB furnace. The method comprises the following steps of: averaging within a component range stipulated by the national standards as a datum value; increasing a datum value of an element Al and reducing a datum value of an element V, and then, taking the elements Al and V as proportioning components of brinqueting batch; covering alloy package in proportion, pressing sponge titanium and alloy package into an electrode block, and adopting a plasma welding machine to weld the electrode block into a long electrode; and smelting the long electrode into primary cast ingot through the VAR furnace, and performing secondary smelting on the primary ingot smelted by the VAR furnace through the 7-gun cold cathode EB furnace, thereby obtaining very-large-scale high-quality TC4 titanium alloy round ingots/flat ingots. The method is convenient to operate, can realize control on elements aluminum and vanadium, can greatly improve stability of the elements aluminum and vanadium in cast ingots of the TC4 titanium alloy, and further improves quality of the conventional TC4 titanium alloy product, so that the product obtains good market competition ability.
