Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and an arrangement for producing low-gas and non-porous cast aluminum alloys.
- Crucible or trough furnaces are usually used to produce cast alloys. Either liquid electrolysis metal is filled in or solid metal is melted. The intended alloy composition is adjusted by adding alloy components such as silicon, magnesium, copper, titanium, nickel. The molten bath is heated to dissolve and alloy the components. It absorbs more hydrogen because aluminum has a high solubility for hydrogen in the liquid state. This occurs when liquid aluminum is converted to water vapor and is immediately absorbed by the melt. The water vapor comes into contact with the liquid aluminum via the feed materials, the furnace and crucible linings, the tools, the melting and fluxing agents, the combustion of gaseous and liquid fuels and the air humidity.
- the amount of dissolved hydrogen depends on the metal temperature, the alloy composition and the hydrogen partial pressure.
- the hydrogen uptake is promoted by open burner flames or violent bath movements in induction furnaces.
- alkali and alkaline earth metals such as strontium, sodium and calcium
- the hydrogen content of the melt increases significantly again to values of over 0.3 ml of hydrogen in 100 g of metal, since the water vapor decomposition takes place even faster through these metals.
- the melt should be cleaned as soon as possible, as a treatment that was carried out at an early stage by subsequent technological steps, such as. B. by pouring for the purpose of transporting the melt, in turn can lead to contamination.
- the vacuum degassing of the melt is a particularly environmentally friendly and effective method.
- the success of this method is particularly due to the complex transportation of the melt, interim cooling and remelting after the required alloying, refining and vacuum degassing processes up to continuous casting and the inevitable contact with the air humidity is not carried out optimally, so that as a result of the alloying and refining process and after the continuous casting, there are no low-gas and non-porous aluminum casting alloys.
- the invention has for its object to provide a method and an arrangement for the production of low-gas and non-porous aluminum casting alloys, with which it is possible to keep the contact of the aluminum melt with the air humidity from the alloying process through the refinement to the continuous casting of the cast ingot extremely low , to use the environmentally friendly and effective vacuum degassing and to prevent the formation of large gas pores by a high cooling rate.
- this object is achieved in that after the alloying of the molten metal in a melting furnace, the melt is fed directly to a vacuum furnace via a channel system, that finishing components are added in the vacuum furnace and the casting temperature required for the continuous casting is set so that the vacuum in the vacuum furnace is periodic Measurement of the metal density is held for a further 5 to 240 minutes and that the metal melt is then fed directly to the continuous casting system via the channel system, the metal melt being filtered before entering the continuous casting system.
- the melt is fed from the melting furnace alternately or simultaneously into two vacuum furnaces, so that the continuous casting installation, which is preferably designed as a horizontal continuous casting installation, can be fed with melt continuously.
- the metal density is measured while holding in a vacuum oven. This makes it possible to control the residence time of the melt under vacuum conditions. It is expedient for the size of the vacuum to be between 100 and 1 mbar while the vacuum is being maintained. The regulation of the duration of the vacuum essentially depends on the measured values of the metal density. It may well be necessary that its size be kept constant or varied while the vacuum is being held. For example, it is expedient for the vacuum to be as large as possible with increasing metal density while holding, so that the expulsion of the hydrogen is possible by further reducing its partial pressure despite increasing metal density.
- the arrangement of the melting furnace, at least one vacuum melting furnace and the continuous casting plant, which are directly connected to one another via a channel system, make it possible to keep the metal in the melt at all times during the treatment process. Energy-consuming solidification and remelting processes are eliminated due to the optimal transport of the melt via the channel system.
- a gradient is provided, which is realized by different levels of the furnaces and the continuous casting system or by a height-adjustable channel system.
- the gutter system according to the invention is an open system, so that a control of the Melt flow is guaranteed at all times. Due to the short distances, the contact of the melt with the air humidity is minimal.
- the melting furnace 1 in FIG. 1 is usually designed as a crucible or trough furnace. It is used to make alloys. Here the alloy components, such as silicon, magnesium, copper, titanium, nickel, etc., are lined up, a refining treatment with reaction and / or inert gases is carried out, and the metal temperature necessary for transferring the melt into the vacuum furnaces 2 is set. Following the gravity, the melt flows through the channel system 4 into the two vacuum furnaces 2. The capacity of the melting furnace 1 is so large that both vacuum furnaces 2 can be charged alternately.
- the refinement components such as strontium, sodium, calcium are alloyed in here and the necessary treatment temperature with regard to the specified casting temperature set.
- the alloy melt is subjected to a vacuum treatment, which is controlled according to the results of the metal density test.
- the melt in the two vacuum furnaces 2 is fed in succession via the channel system 4 with the interposition of a ceramic shape filter 5 to the water-cooled horizontal continuous casting plant 3 and cast into format bars.
- the low-gas, non-porous casting alloys produced in this way enable ductile, non-porous castings to be produced if they are melted properly again.
