Abstract
A slinger, or slinger ring, for a melt spinning apparatus has a cylindrical, mechanically shaped main element that is composed of a refractory metal or a refractory metal-based alloy and has a circumferential surface running in a tangential direction. The circumferential surface is delimited in the axial direction by two end faces. A degree of deformation in the radial direction is greater than the degree of deformation in the axial direction.
Claims10
A slinger ring for a melt spinning apparatus, the slinger ring comprising:
- a cylindrical main element composed of a refractory metal or a refractory metal-based alloy;
- said main element having a circumferential surface running in a tangential direction and being delimited in an axial direction by two end faces;
- and
- said main element being mechanically shaped in a deformation process, with a degree of deformation of said main element in a radial direction being greater than a degree of deformation in the axial direction;
- wherein an average circumference-side grain aspect ratio, which is obtained in a plan view onto said circumferential surface, is smaller than an average end-face-side grain aspect ratio, which is obtained in a plan view onto one of said two end faces.
