IV. Smelting Temperature
The smelting process is basically the same as the production of ordinary ductile iron. The smelting temperature is generally controlled at 1450-1520 ℃, the high temperature standing temperature is 1520-1550 ℃, and the standing time is 5-10 minutes.
Blow temperature: 1450-1480C (depending on how much the ladle size drops). Pouring temperature: 1360-1400 ℃.
V. Spherical and inoculated treatment
ZT-1DF or ZT-1F for spheroidizing agent, with an addition amount of 1.1-1.35%; YJ-3 inoculant for covering inoculation and iron trough inoculation, with an addition amount of 0.5-
1.2, half covered on the nodularizer, the other half rushed in with the flow when the second iron is discharged; The pretreatment agent is YCJ-1 with an addition amount of 0.3-0.4, and is placed opposite the alloy pit at the bottom of the bag (as shown in the figure for packing); YJ-1 for inoculation of gate basin, particle size 0.2-0.7mm, addition amount 0.15.
