Designing and Constructing Electric Arc Furnaces
In order to be successful in the steel market and in electric arc furnace construction, a manufacturer must constantly optimise production and related costs. As technology, machinery and systems are continuously developing, this means that with a relatively low investment, we can achieve great results when constructing electric arc furnaces while maintaining system performance and production flexibility.
Furnace Shell
- Interchangeable upper shell
- Reduced false air intake by sealed cage and custom designed panels
- Special panels designed for clinging to slag and copper panels with finned tubes
- Water-cooled panels, as close as possible to the bath to reduce the refractory consumption. Copper cooling blocks mounted in the slag cutting area
Tapping
- Supply of all tapping systems
- Opening of the casting hole with horizontal drawer
- 100% slag-free tapping (FAST)
- Automatic tap-hole filling system, tap-hole repair during casting (FAST)
EAF superstructure, vaults and tubes
- Free-standing roof with tubular panels or single panel
- Vaulted curve with the traditional component system connected in series
- Excellent accessibility and vault and electrodes quick and easy to change
- Compact vault elevation system integrated into the portal (patented)
Current conducting arms in copper and steel
Our company in Pian Camuno in the province of Brescia specialises in constructing electric arc furnaces, and since 1984, has supplied around 250 EAFs, some of which are still operating with potential-free current conducting arms. In DC-furnaces. high power is guaranteed with a small pitch diameter and with excellent electrical symmetry for the three stages.
Improved productivity thanks to higher power
Lower resistance, regulated reactance and impedance
Excellent symmetry and arc stability
Pitch diameter reduced to a minimum for a lower refractory consumption
Arms are very stiff for higher adjustment speeds without vibrations
Effective arm cooling and insulation
Dust-proof assembly
Integrated electrode spray cooling system
EAF Upgrade Solutions
Constructing electric arc furnaces allows the possibility to enhance them to UHP or Shaft furnaces with all the subsequent benefits of the most modern and current technologies.
Electrode holder and guide
Designed for high adjustment speeds
Rigid and soldered tower
Self-centring tower with prismatic roller slide system
Excellent adjustment of roller bearings, good accessibility and all parts easy to maintain
Main benefits
5-10% increase in active power time with the same power supplied
Low capital costs and quick installation times by using as much of the existing equipment as possible. Greater savings and increased productivity.
Increased performance
For existing EAF furnaces, productivity and specific energy needs are as far as they go. However, the furnace's efficiency can be increased by using innovative technology of oxygen and carbon based fuel.Our company supplies a complete range of solutions to help...
