Abstract

We have carried out researches for working out technological electroslag remelting conditions to produce bimetallic ingots. A new plant flow diagram has been developed for the manufacture. Experimental series of melting was performed on a laboratory electroslag remelting installation by developed by us electroslag remelting conditions. Bimetallic ingots for armour were produced of different combinations steel grades. Ingot of X38CrMoV 5 1 (DIN 1.2343; AISI H11) -10G2SF perspective steel grades is investigated. By the method of non-destructive testing the fusion of two steel grades along height of ingot is investigated. Macrostructure of cast transverse templates is investigated. A complete fusion of steels is established.
