Caster Up-Grade

We finished installation and are very pleased with the success of the project.
With this new piece of equipment we have :

  • increased our billet section to 160mm2,
  • increased tundish size to 20 metric tons to facilitate inclusion flotation
  • we have an automatic control of both ladle and tundish levels
  • we have submerge entry nozzles
  • new system for mould level control
  • 4 spray zones, including 2 air mist to reduce internal stresses and surface reheating during cooling
  • Individual billet weighing process control to predict heat separation

We are currently producing more sophisticated grades with great success!
We continue to supplying the highest quality billets.
