EAF EMS

ELECTROMAGNETIC STIRRER FOR ELECTRIC
ARC FURNACE


Electromagnetic stirring in EAF was developed 70 years ago for the secondary reefing phase of the EAF. Nowadays electromagnetic stirring is the perfect tool for increasing the kinetics in the EAF and it is a proven and reliable technology with inexpensive operation able to reduce the EAF operation cost, by saving time, energy and materials.


NEEDS

  • Molten Scrap especially in EBT Area
  • Reduction of the concentration of FeO in slag
  • Reduction of the level of Oxigen concentration in steel
  • Homogenization of the temperature and composition stratification across the bath
  • Increase of the free opening ratio of tap hole
  • Prevention of the scrape cave-in and electrode breakage
  • Avoidance of the cold boiling

ADVANTAGES

  • Energy Saving
  • Yield Increase
  • Productivity increase
  • Homogenization of the temperature and chemical components concentration
  • Increase of safety and reliability, including IBT free opening rate
  • Even melting of Scrap
  • Reduced cave-in and electrode breakage
