The electrical design and considerations for a ladle metallurgy facility

摘要

A general description is given of a ladle metallurgy facility for a secondary liquid steel refining process. This process occurs after the steel is produced from iron in a basic oxygen furnace (BOF) and before the hot liquid steel is cast into slabs for further processing. Ladle metallurgy processes improve the steel quality and temperature control as demanded by a high-quality continuous caster. The ladle tilt revolve turntable, control equipment, and specialty equipment are described in detail.
