Description
Verfahren zum Her stellen von Gussstücken, insbesondere aus Leichtmetall und Leichtmetallegier ungen. Die Entgasung von Metallschmelzen durch Einleiten von Schallschwingungen, z. B. Ultraschallschwingungen, in die Schmelze ist verschiedentlich vorgeschlagen worden. Der Grund dafür, dass dieses Verfahren trotz der bei Laboratoriumsversuchen erzielten günstigen Ergebnisse bis heute noch wenig Eingang in die Giessereipragis gefunden hat, ist vor allem darin zu sehen, dass es erheb liche Schwierigkeiten bereitet, die zur Her stellung möglichst gasfreier Gussstücke, z. B.
Blöcke und Platten von betriebsmässiger Grösse notwendige Schallenergie in die Schmelze einzuführen.
Diese Schwierigkeiten werden durch die vorliegende Erfindung weitgehend beseitigt. Zahlreiche Versuche haben nämlich gezeigt, dass eine weitgehende Entgasung der Schmelze schon bei verhältnismässig kurzem Einwirken der Schwingungen eintritt, wenn es nur ge- lingt, eine genügend grosse Energie in die Schmelze einzuleiten. Die Menge der einleit- baren Energie ist aber wiederum abhängig von dem Querschnitt der zu entgasenden Schmelze.
Sowohl beim Block- und Strang guss wie auch beim Formguss hat nun die Schmelze den kleinsten Querschnitt und da mit die beste Möglichkeit für die Aufnahme hoher Schwingungsenergie beim Durchlaufen der Giessrinne, mittels derer die Schmelze vom Giessgefäss in die Kokille eingefüllt wird.
Demgemäss besteht die Erfindung darin, dass die Schmelze während des Füllens der Kokille beim Durchlaufen der Giessrinne durch die Schallschwingungen erregt wird. Dabei kann die Giessrinne offen oder ge schlossen, das heisst als Rohr, ausgebildet sein. Der Grad der Entgasung kann durch verschiedene Einstellung der Durchlaufge- schwindigkeit verändert und beispielsweise so eingeregelt werden, dass praktisch eine völlige Gasfreiheit erreicht wird.
Soll durch die Beschallung ausser der Entgasung noch eine weitere Beeinflussung der Schmelze, z. B. bei der Erstarrung die Bildung feinkörniger Kristalle oder die Ver meidung von Seigerungen erreicht werden, ist es vorteilhaft, in die Schmelze auch inner halb der Kokille noch solche Schwingungen einzuleiten.
Das Verfahren gemäss Erfindung hat sich besonders bei der Herstellung von Guss- stücken aus Leichtmetall und Leichtmetall- legierungen bewährt, jedoch ist es ohne w ei- teres auch auf Schmelzen aus andern Werk- stoffen anwendbar, die im geschmolzenen Zustand zur Aufnahme von Gasen neigen und deren Gasfreiheit erwünscht ist.
A method for making castings, in particular made of light metal and light metal alloys. The degassing of molten metal by introducing sound vibrations, eg. B. ultrasonic vibrations, in the melt has been proposed variously. The reason that this method has found little entry into the foundry prizes, despite the favorable results achieved in laboratory tests, is mainly to be seen in the fact that it creates considerable difficulties, the position for the production of gas-free castings such. B.
To introduce the necessary sound energy into the melt in blocks and plates of normal size.
These difficulties are largely eliminated by the present invention. Numerous tests have shown that extensive degassing of the melt occurs even after a relatively short exposure to the vibrations, provided that sufficient energy is introduced into the melt. The amount of energy that can be introduced is in turn dependent on the cross section of the melt to be degassed.
In ingot and continuous casting as well as in die casting, the melt now has the smallest cross-section and therefore the best possibility for absorbing high vibration energy when passing through the pouring channel, by means of which the melt is poured from the pouring vessel into the mold.
Accordingly, the invention consists in that the melt is excited by the sound vibrations while the mold is being filled as it passes through the pouring channel. The pouring channel can be open or closed, ie designed as a pipe. The degree of degassing can be changed through various settings of the throughput speed and, for example, adjusted so that practically complete freedom from gas is achieved.
If, in addition to degassing, the sonication should have a further influence on the melt, e.g. B. the formation of fine-grained crystals or the avoidance of segregation can be achieved during solidification, it is advantageous to initiate such vibrations into the melt even within the mold.
The method according to the invention has proven itself particularly in the production of castings from light metal and light metal alloys, but it can also be used without further ado for melts made of other materials which tend to absorb gases in the molten state and whose absence of gas is desired.
