15t Ladle Refining Furnace

Overview:
Features of ladle refining furnace: electric arc heating, temperature measuring and sampling, bottom argon blow stirring, contents microscale adjustment, wires feeding, control production steps of steel making and casting.
2.2 Main function of the equipment
▲ Heating by Arc to raise the temperature of molten steel under normal atmosphere, temperature measuring and sampling by manual.
▲ Bottom bubbling by Argon, to achieve the temperature and composition even.
▲ It can be slightly adjust the quantity of alloy, to control accurately and meet the final chemical compositions as required.
▲ With the wire feeder, making desulphuration, deoxidizing of the molten steel, to change the form and distribution of the inclusions and control the alloying element accurately, meanwhile can raise the recovery up of the alloy, minimize the temperature drop and minimize the environmental pollution.
▲ As a buffer to adjust the melting and casting time.
