摘要:
The present apparatus is comprised by two magnetic induction sets, one for melting of the raw material and the second for purification of molten metal; each set comprises a pot or crucible (1, 1'), an electromagnetic device, a filter (11) and a power supply; each crucible (1, 1') is surrounded in the lower part by a hollow permanent magnet (3, 3') in which three pairs of electromagnets facing each other are arranged; the process consists of the following stages: a) charging of metallic raw material inside a crucible (1); b) electromagnetic induction heating to melt the metallic raw material (2) inside crucible (1) through a three-phase magnetic system creating a horizontal travelling or pules magnetic field which builds a turbulent flux inside the melt (2'); c) whirling stirring of melt (2') by electromagnetic induction and purification of it via extraction of hydrogen and of non-electroconductive inclusions by coagulation of them in agglomerates; d) discharging of purified melt (2') by a magneto-hydrodynamic pump effect for the next treatment or technological actions such as the continuous or periodical casting through a filter for the mechanical filtration of the agglomerates.
摘要:
A holding furnace, particularly for a die-casting apparatus, comprising a bucket which can be heated, is adapted to contain molten material and is provided with a lid which can be opened and is shaped substantially like an inverted cup; the lid is provided with at least one opening for introducing protective gas having a higher relative density than air and adapted to generate an atmosphere for protection from contact with air for the molten material at regions that are free from the containment means walls of the bucket.
摘要:
Apparatus for melting preferably highly reactive metals, such as titanium for example, in a vacuum melting furnace, for example a vacuum arc furnace for the remelting of metals, with one or more melting positions, a melting crucible (5, 28) being provided at each melting position, these crucibles being closed vacuum-tight after the end of the melting operation and then separated from the melting furnace, the furnace being provided with a single manipulator and by this manipulator each single crucible (5, 28) can be closed vacuum-tight by means of a separate crucible closure plate (13, 37).
摘要:
A melting furnace for insulating materials is provided with a cooled crucible (10) having continuous metal side malls, a partitioned and cooled bottom (12) and at least one induction coil (28) placed under the bottom which serves as the sole heating means. The depth of the melting bath contained in the crucible and the excitation frequency of the induction coil are selected so that the depth and half of the inside radius of the crucible are less than the skin thickness of the bath.
