ABSTRACT:
Zirconium or hafnium tubeshells, billets and channel sheets are produced by plasma arc melting the metal to form a liquid metal pool. The pool is poured into a mold to form a near net shape. The near net shape is reduced to final size while maintaining the metal temperature below the alpha-beta transition temperature throughout the size reducing step.
