In den letzten Jahren haben große Formteile (z. B. Bleche, Schmiedeteile, Düsen) aus hochschmelzenden Metallen, wie etwa Wolfram, Molybdän, Tantal, Niob und ihren Legierungen (mit Schmelzpunkten über 2000° C), steigende Bedeutung erlangt. Sie werden derzeit größtenteils nach pulvermetallurgischen Methoden verarbeitet, d. h., die hochschmelzenden Metalle in Pulverform werden zu Körpern verpreßt, die dann durch eine thermische Nachbehandlung, den Sinterprozeß, verfestigt werden.In recent years, large molded parts (e.g. sheet metal, forgings, nozzles) have been made from high-melting Metals such as tungsten, molybdenum, tantalum, niobium and their alloys (with melting points above 2000 ° C), gained increasing importance. They are currently mostly after powder metallurgy Methods processed, d. i.e., the refractory metals in powder form are pressed into bodies, which are then solidified by a thermal aftertreatment, the sintering process.

Bisher war es üblich, die hochschmelzenden Metallpulver zu Stäben zu verpressen, die dann in direktem Stromdurchgang auf die Sintertemperatur erhitzt wurden. Bei großen Sinterkörpern, oder z. B. bei kurzen Sinterkörpern mit großem Querschnitt, ist das Sinterverfahren mit direktem Stromdurchgang nicht durchführbar. Solche Preßkörper müssen indirekt, d. h. in Hochtemperaturöfen, gesintert werden. Für dieses Indirektsintern hat sich in großem Umfang die Verwendung von Induktionsöfen eingeführt unter Verwendung von Suszeptoren aus Graphit oder hochschmelzenden Metallen. Die Einsatzmöglichkeit von Graphit ist allerdings dadurch begrenzt, daß bei Graphit die Gefahr besteht, daß es zu einer unerwünschten Kohlenstoffaufnahme durch den Sinterkörper kommt.Up to now it was customary to press the high-melting metal powder into rods, which then in direct Current passage were heated to the sintering temperature. With large sintered bodies, or z. B. at short sintered bodies with a large cross-section, the sintering process is with direct current passage not feasible. Such compacts must be indirect, i.e. H. sintered in high temperature furnaces. The use of induction furnaces has become widely used for this indirect sintering using susceptors made of graphite or refractory metals. The possibility of use of graphite is limited by the fact that there is a risk of graphite becoming a unwanted carbon uptake by the sintered body.

Suszeptoren in Form von Hohlzylindern oder Tiegeln aus hochschmelzenden Metallen, z. B. Wolfram oder Molybdän, herzustellen, zeigt bei größeren Querschnittsformen hohe technische Schwierigkeiten. So sind vor allem große Pressen und Hochtemperaturöfen für das Sintern der Suszeptoren aus den hochschmelzenderi Metallen notwendig. Es wurde auch bereits der Vorschlag gemacht, einen Suszeptor in Form eines Hohlzylinders aus aufeinanderliegenden Ringen aus hochschmelzenden Metallen zusammenzusetzen. Aber auch die Herstellung großer Ringe aus hochschmelzenden Metallen ist sehr schwierig durchzuführen.Susceptors in the form of hollow cylinders or crucibles made of refractory metals, e.g. B. tungsten or molybdenum, presents great technical difficulties in the case of larger cross-sectional shapes. So are mainly large presses and high-temperature furnaces for sintering the susceptors from the refractory metals are necessary. A susceptor has also been suggested put together in the form of a hollow cylinder from superimposed rings made of refractory metals. But the production of large rings from refractory metals is very difficult to carry out.

Die Induktionsöfen mit Suszeptoren aus hochschmelzenden Metallen finden nicht nur Anwendung zum Sintern der hochschmelzenden Metalle, sondern z. B. auch zur Herstellung der Metalle auf dem Wege der chemischen Umsetzung Metallcarbid/Metalloxyd, wie bei der Herstellung von Tantal- und Niobpulver, dann zur Herstellung von Hartstoffen, wie Metallcarbiden und Metallboriden. Auch in diesen Fällen ist man gezwungen, aus Wirtschaftlichkeitsgründen mit größeren Induktionsöfen und damit größeren Suszeptoren zu arbeiten.The induction furnaces with susceptors made of refractory metals are not only used for sintering the refractory metals, but z. B. also for the production of the metals on the way the chemical conversion of metal carbide / metal oxide, as in the production of tantalum and niobium powder, then for the production of hard materials such as metal carbides and metal borides. Even in these cases one is forced, for reasons of economy, to use larger induction furnaces and thus larger ones Working susceptors.

Für die Herstellung derartiger Suszeptoren können die bekannten Verfahren der Sintertechnik nicht an-The known methods of sintering technology cannot be used for the production of such susceptors.

Die Erfindung vermeidet diese Schwierigkeiten und schlägt als Suszeptor aus hochschmelzenden Metallen, insbesondere aus Wolfram, Molybdän, Tantal oder Niob und ihren Legierungen, für Induktionsöfen aus Pulvern der hochschmelzenden Metalle gepreßte und gegebenenfalls vorgesinterte Bauelemente, vorzugsweise in Form von Zylinderausschnitten, vor, die durch Sinterung fest miteinander verbunden sind. Um dieses ohne Anwendung niedrigschmelzender Hilfsmetalle vor sich gehende Zusammensintern der Einzelelemente zu erleichtern, können diese an den Berührungsflächen mit Profilen versehen werden. Die mechanische und elektrisch leitende Verbindung zwischen den Elementen wird dadurch erreicht, daß sie überlappend und gut passend aufeinandergelegt und durch thermische Behandlung zusammengesintert werden. Das Zusammensintern an den Berüh-The invention avoids these difficulties and proposes as a susceptor made of refractory metals, in particular made of tungsten, molybdenum, tantalum or niobium and their alloys, for induction furnaces Components pressed from powders of the refractory metals and optionally pre-sintered, preferably in the form of cylinder sections, which are firmly connected to one another by sintering.

Das Zusammensintern der Bauelemente des Sus- s zeptors kann entweder in eigenen Sinterofen erfolgen oder unmittelbar in dem Induktionsofen, in den der Suszeptor eingesetzt werden soll. Der Zusammenbau eines größeren Suszeptors aus kleinen Bauelementen hat folgende Vorteile:The components of the susceptor can either be sintered together in their own sintering furnace or directly in the induction furnace in which the susceptor is to be used. The assembly a larger susceptor made of small components has the following advantages:

1. leichte Herstellbarkeit der kleinen Bauelemente;1. Easy manufacture of the small components;

2. der Suszeptor kann je nach geometrischer Anordnung der Bauelemente mehr oder minder große Öffnungen im Mantel aufweisen, was sich besonders beim Vakuumsintern dadurch günstig auswirkt, daß sich die aus dem Einsatzmaterial zu entfernenden Verunreinigungen leichter abpumpen lassen;2.
