Applications

Vacuum levitation melting furnace is a new furnace applying the method of electromagnetic induction vacuum levitation melting with water-cooled crucible. It is to place the melted metal or non-metallic solids in the high-frequency or intermediate frequency alternating electric field formed by the induction coil under vacuum conditions, and use the water-cooled metal crucible as the "energy collector" of the magnetic field, so that the energy magnetic field energy is concentrated in the volume space of the crucible, and then a strong eddy current is formed near the surface of the target melt materials.

On the one hand, Joule heat is released to the target melt material; on the other hand, Lorentz force field is formed to suspend (or semi suspend) and stir the target melt material. Due to the effect of magnetic levitation, the target melt material is separated from the inner wall of the crucible, so the heat dissipation behavior between the target melt material and the crucible wall changes from conduction heat dissipation to radiation heat dissipation, which leads to a reduction of heat dissipation rate. The target melt material can reach a very high temperature (1700 ℃ - 2000 ℃), which is suitable for smelting high melting point metals or their alloys.

FAQ

What is a vacuum furnace used for?

A vacuum furnace is used for high-temperature processing of materials in a controlled environment without any contamination. It operates by surrounding the product with a vacuum, which prevents oxidation and heat loss from the product through convection. This furnace is commonly used for heat treatment of steel alloys at temperatures below 1200 °C. High-temperature vacuum furnaces can reach temperatures up to 3000°C and are used for industrial processes such as sintering, brazing, annealing, and heat treatment with high consistency and low contamination. The ability to achieve uniform heating across the entire workpiece is a key benefit of using a high-temperature vacuum furnace.

What is the process of a vacuum furnace?

The process of a vacuum furnace involves loading the parts into the chamber and creating a vacuum inside it by utilizing a vacuum pump. The next step is to heat the parts using temperature controls, which can reach between 1,500 and 5,400 degrees Fahrenheit. This process eliminates the possibility of oxidation and contamination, resulting in a higher purity end product. After heating, the parts are cooled and finished before being removed from the vacuum furnace. The furnace consists of various components, including the vacuum system, furnace shell, electric heating element, temperature controls, power supply system, and transport apparatus.

How does a vacuum induction melting furnace work?

A vacuum induction melting furnace works by utilizing electromagnetic induction under vacuum or protective atmosphere conditions to melt metals and alloys that combine easily or have close affinity with oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen. The furnace contains a refractory-lined crucible enclosed by an induction coil that generates an eddy current of heat in the material being processed. The furnace's vacuum system totally eradicates gases from the molten metals, and the cooling system contributes to the controlled melting temperature. The furnace is highly reliable, gives high productivity, and produces metals with very close compositional tolerances.

What is vacuum arc melting process?

Vacuum arc melting (VAR) is a secondary melting process used to produce metal ingots with high chemical and mechanical homogeneity for critical applications in industries like aerospace, energy, and nuclear. The process involves refining liquid metal under vacuum and controlling its solidification rate. It is used for the purification of reactive titanium or zirconium alloys, without any contact with casting refractories, as well as for improving inclusion cleanliness in steels and superalloys. The remelted cylindrical ingots can weigh several tons, and VAR has revolutionized the specialty metallurgical techniques industry.

What gas is used in a vacuum furnace?

Different gases can be used in a vacuum furnace depending on the application. In general, vacuum furnaces can work with gases or mixtures such as Argon, Nitrogen, Hydrogen, Carbon Monoxide, Helium, among others. The use of these gases allows for heat treatment in a defined, mostly non-oxidizing atmosphere, which is required for various applications such as vacuum soldering and brazing, vacuum annealing, and sintering. Additionally, it is possible to work with a defined oxygen concentration that is different from the air composition.

What are the advantages of vacuum induction melting?

The advantages of vacuum induction melting (VIM) include the elimination of gases, superior process control, close control of chemical analysis, slag-free melting, and melt protection. VIM is currently the most energy-efficient, fastest, low-consumption, and environmentally friendly induction heating technology for heating metal materials. The technology offers exceptional and reproducible control of reactive element-containing compositions and eliminates the need for a protective slag cover, decreasing the potential for accidental contamination or inclusions in the ingot. The process takes place in a vacuum environment, making it beneficial to remove gas impurities inside the metal, resulting in a more pure metal alloy material.

What is VAR Vacuum Arc Remelting (VAR)Furnace?

VAR or Vacuum Arc Remelting is a process used to refine and improve the cleanliness of ingots made from standard air-melted, vacuum induction melted, or ESR remelted alloys. It is used for steels, superalloys, titanium, zirconium, and their alloys in industries such as aerospace, power generation, defense, medical, and nuclear. VAR is a continuous remelting process of a consumable electrode under vacuum, with DC power used to strike an arc between the electrode and a copper mold. The process removes dissolved gases, reduces undesired trace elements, improves oxide cleanliness, and achieves directional solidification of the ingot from bottom to top.

What is the heating element used in a vacuum furnace?

The heating element in a vacuum furnace is critical to its proper functioning, and is dependent on factors such as maximum operating temperature, power load, partial pressure and quench gases, and life expectancy. Vacuum furnaces are heated by electric resistance elements made from a variety of materials, including high-temperature metallic alloys such as stainless steel, nickel-chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, tantalum, or of non-metallic materials such as graphite and silicon carbide. The choice of material for the heating element is important in maximizing its longevity, reliability, efficiency, and ultimately the process results.

How does vacuum help in induction melting furnace?

Vacuum conditions are critical in induction melting furnaces as they help to eliminate gases from the molten metals, preventing quick oxidation. The absence of gases during the melting process ensures the creation of very close compositional tolerances, resulting in consistent metals. The vacuum also provides a protective atmosphere for metals that combine easily or have a close affinity with oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen. Vacuum induction melting furnaces use electromagnetic induction to melt metals and alloys in a refractory lined crucible enclosed by an induction coil, creating eddy currents that make the melting process possible.

How does vacuum arc melting furnace work?

A vacuum arc melting furnace works by melting materials under a vacuum or low-pressure atmosphere using electric arcs. The furnace uses two electrodes, one of which is the material to be melted. The electrodes are brought close together and an electric arc is struck between them, causing the material to melt. The furnace is then evacuated to remove any impurities and the molten material is cast into a desired shape. This process is used for the production of high-purity metals, alloys, and intermetallics used in industries such as aerospace, electronics, and biomedical engineering.
