Eiga Electrode Induction Gas Atomization Equipment Titanium and Titanium Base Alloy Powder Production

Electrode Induction Melting Gas Atomization (EIGA) Equipment

Product Description

Nowadays inert gas atomization technology has become one of high quality metal powder production modes.

Electrode induction gas atomization (EIGA) process working principle: Under vacuum or inert gas protection condition, the slowly rotating feedstock rod is heated by high-frequency induction coil and melted inductively and continuously in the absence of crucible. Then the molten falls free, flows into atomization system and is crushed into a large number of small liquid droplets by high pressure inert gas from atomizer spray plate. Then small liquid droplets are solidified into spherical granular powders in flight. 

Principle: Under vacuum or inert gas protection, the slowly rotating feedstock rod is heated by high frequency induction coil and melted inductively and continuously in the absence of crucible. Then the molten falls free, flows into atomization system and is crushed into a large number of small liquid droplets by high pressure inert gas from atomizer spray plate. Then small liquid droplets are solidified into spherical granular powders in flight. Feedstock doesn't contact with crucible and fluid limiting diversion tube, so it doesn't get pollution.
 
System components: steel working platform, melting device module, vacuum equipment, inert gas atomization module, atomization tower, powder collection system, highly active powder material surface passivation treatment device module, control system.
