c)Titanium
slabs and ingots, titanium slab and ingot are manufactured in different
diameters.
FIKO
metallurgical plant produced titanium ingots dia 370mm, dia 400mm, and dia.
630mm. At present a new melting facility is being constructed which aimed
to melt titanium ingots dia 800mm, 860mm. But if it requires titanium bars
including titanium-forged bars, titanium turned bars dia.450-650mm so it
is necessary titanium ingot dia. 800, 860mm for manufacture of
abovementioned titanium bar.
Fiko
Electron-Beam Metallurgical plant supplied following titanium slabs upon
customer request:
a)
titanium slabs and titanium slab
b)
titanium
slabs and titanium slab
Titanium
slabs and titanium slab can
be supplied both turned and not turned.
Fiko
Electron-Beam Metallurgical plant
will
have possibility to melt slabs of nearly 12 000 kg mass.
It
is the same situation with titanium ring, titanium flanges, titanium
disks, titanium squares, and titanium billets. Depending on diameter of
titanium ring, titanium flange, titanium disk, titanium square or titanium
billet it is taken corresponding diameter of titanium ingot or the
specific size of titanium slab.
In
case titanium ring, titanium flange, titanium disk, titanium square or
titanium billet have to have mechanical properties so titanium slab or
titanium ingot do not suit for them we should manufacture them from
titanium bars both forged titanium bars and hot rolled titanium bars.
3.
Titanium
slabs and ingots are produced
in different lengths.
We
melted titanium ingots with length 1000mm and more. The new facility will
be able to melt titanium ingots up to 4000mm in length.
Titanium
slabs and titanium slab is subdivided into following:
a)
titanium slabs or titanium slab by width
b)
titanium slabs or titanium slab by thickness
c)
turned or not turned titanium slabs
4.
Titanium
slabs and ingots, titanium slab and ingot
are produced in different weight.
The
weight of titanium ingots produced by us before weighted 700 to 3200 kg.
With new melting furnace we will have possibility to melt ingots of nearly
12 000 kg mass.
The
main parameters of titanium slabs and
ingots, titanium slab and ingot depend on market demands. For
production of titanium bars the most suitable will be titanium ingot dia
370mm, for rolling of titanium sheets and titanium plates the ingots with
dia 630-860mm are the best choice. Moreover titanium sheets and plates are
better manufactured from titanium slab and titanium slabs.
The
market dictates to manufacturer of titanium slabs and ingots that it’s
cause repartition of consumption market of titanium slabs and titanium
ingots:
a)
titanium slab and titanium slabs will be used only for production
of titanium sheets and plates
b)
titanium slabs force out titanium ingots from production market of
titanium sheets and plates
c)
titanium ingots take niche only for production of titanium bars,
titanium tubes where titanium slabs cannot be used
d)
titanium slabs and ingot have common market of repartition- this is
titanium ring, titanium billets, titanium flanges, titanium disks.
Depending on their parameters titanium slabs or ingots or titanium slab
and ingots could be used for production.
Very
often customer require titanium ingots Ti6Al-4V dia 200-250mm. Usually,
such titanium ingots are used in production of titanium golf clubs instead
of more expensive titanium bars.
Depending
on materials sizes customer needs different titanium slabs by width and
length.
For
example, Japanese manufacturers of titanium materials-titanium sheets,
plates and also sheets in coil need different titanium slabs by width and
length. So they manufacture titanium sheet in coil 600mm and more. For
this reason they need different size slabs by width. Such titanium slab is
needed for Japanese and Italian manufacturers for production titanium coil
sheet. Globalization forces manufacturers of titanium slabs to specialize
in
production
of titanium slabs by width or to have various crystallizers for production
titanium slabs in depend on market of coil sheet and in the end the exact
sizes of titanium slabs will be produced.
FIKO’s
new melting facility is also purposed for melting titanium slabs.
Titanium
slabs will be produced in following dimensions
height
of titanium slab - 400-500 mm
width
of titanium slab - 1050-1325 mm
length
of titanium slab - 4000 mm
Titanium
slabs will be supplied either in turned (machined) condition or with
non-machined surface.
FIKO
metallurgical plant manufactures titanium ingots both turned and not
turned with dia 370, 400, 450, 510, 600, 630, 800 mm and titanium slabs
both machined and non-machined and supplies such titanium ingots and
titanium slabs to the market of Asia, Europe and America.
The
control of quality of titanium slabs and ingots, titanium slab and ingot
start with titanium sponge, titanium scrap and titanium cuttings quality
control.
In
manufacture of titanium slabs, titanium ingots,titanium slab, titanium
ingot the following grades of titanium sponge are used TG-90, TG-100,
TG-110, TG-120, TG-130 and in exceptional cases TG-150. Titanium sponge
should be supplied in pressurized drums and accompanied by quality
certificate. The customer orders titanium ingots, titanium slabs, titanium
slab and titanium ingot with low or high oxygen content. Before melting of
titanium ingots or titanium slabs, titanium sponge should be pressed and
sorted in accordance to customers’ demands regarding oxygen and iron
content. The chemical composition of titanium sponge is checked by
analyses and if the results conform to the figures indicated in
certificate, the sponge is used in production of titanium ingot, titanium
ingots, titanium slab, titanium slabs.
In
case we have to melt titanium ingots or titanium slabs, titanium ingot or
titanium slab with high oxygen content 0.20-0.25%, then TiO2 is added to
titanium sponge while pressing. After that titanium sponge is prepared for
melting. After the titanium sponge are ready for melting it is passed from
preparing raw material section to melting section of titanium ingots or
titanium slabs.
At
our plant titanium ingots, titanium slabs are melted by electron-beam
method.
The
process of manufacture of titanium ingot, titanium ingots, titanium slab,
titanium slabs is rather laborious and difficult because there are no
companies in Ukraine who could supply titanium scrap in prepared for
melting condition.
of
FIKO have to sort out titanium scrap thoroughly because the quality and
purity of titanium ingots and titanium slabs depends on the quality of
titanium scrap.
Our
workers have to check every piece of titanium scrap since if the preparing
division of titanium scrap make mistake so titanium ingot, titanium slab
will be produced with the same chemical composition as titanium scrap.
Take
into account a high coat of titanium slabs and ingots and also weight of
titanium slab and ingot so the mistake may cost expansive.
So
Fiko
Electron-Beam Metallurgical plant modernizes and improve technology of
preparing of titanium scrap for melt of titanium slabs and titanium ingots
permanently.
FIKO
metallurgical plant usually melts Ukrainian titanium scrap into titanium
ingots and titanium slabs only of VT1-0, VT6 and PT3V grades, because in
melting titanium scrap consisting of the pieces of titanium bars, sheets
and plates some part of alloyed elements are burned out and it is
necessary to add the ligature. That’s why the production of titanium
ingot, titanium ingots, titanium slab, titanium slabs in OT4, OT4-0,
OT4-1, VT3-1, VT5-1, VT14, VT16, VT20, VT22, VT23, PT1M, 5V alloy, PT7M is
not profitable.
That
is why we are interested in ASTM GRADE 1, ASTM GRADE 2, ASTM GRADE
Ti6AL/4V scrap for production of titanium slabs and ingots.
Moreover,
titanium ingots and titanium slabs in OT4, OT4-0, OT4-1, VT3-1, VT5-1,
VT6, VT6S, VT14, VT16, VT20, VT22, VT23, PT1M, 5V alloy, PT3V, PT7M should
be double melted but it is not mean that titanium slabs cannot be produced
from alloys for one melting.
This
is the reason we are interested in partners from Europe, Japan, South
Korea, USA who supply titanium scrap (remains of titanium bars, titanium
sheets and titanium tubes) ASTM Grade-1; Grade-2; Grade-3, Grade-4;
Ti6Al/4V; Grade-5; Grade-9.
Titanium
scrap from titanium bars, titanium sheets, titanium plates, titanium tubes
should be sorted and prepared for melting and supplied with quality
certificate.
The
best scrap for melting titanium ingots and titanium slabs if the scrap
from titanium sheets and titanium plates, because titanium scrap from
titanium bars and titanium tubes cannot be piled into melting boxes tight
enough. The scrap from titanium sheets and titanium plates is preferable
because one melting yield of titanium ingot or titanium slab from sheets
plates scrap is more than from scrap of bars and tubes.
After
melting of titanium ingot or titanium slab it is cooling stage. Then
titanium ingot or titanium slab is turned. While turning the test samples
are picked out for analysis of chemical composition of melted titanium
ingots or titanium slabs. Titanium turnings taken from definite titanium
ingot or titanium scrap are forwarded to laboratory for analysis.
Ultrasonic testing is carried out only for titanium ingots and titanium
slabs with mechanically turned (machined) surface. In certificate for such
titanium ingots or slabs we make a mark about ultrasonic control. In case
customer’s demand is titanium ingot or titanium slab is with
non-machined condition it is supplied without ultrasonic testing.
Finished
production – titanium ingots and titanium slabs – are forwarded to the
stock where all titanium materials are stored. In certificate for titanium
slabs, titanium ingots and titanium slab and titanium ingot the following
information is indicated:
a)
Casting number of titanium ingots, titanium ingot, titanium slab,
titanium slabs
b)
GOST, OST and TU according to which the titanium slabs, titanium
ingots, titanium slab and titanium slabs are made
c)
Length of titanium slabs, titanium ingots, titanium slab and
titanium slabs
d)
Weight of titanium slabs, titanium ingots, titanium slab and
titanium slabs
e)
Chemical composition of titanium slabs, titanium ingots, titanium
slab and titanium slabs
f)
Gas composition of titanium slabs, titanium ingots, titanium slab
and titanium slabs
g)
Sizes of titanium slabs, titanium ingots, titanium slab and
titanium slabs: width, thickness, weight
