TURBOPRINT - A spinning filtration system

摘要

The filtration of molten steel traps non-metallic inclusions and reduces turbulence during mould filling. Foam filters are particularly efficient at consuming dynamic energy and converting turbulent mould filling to lamellar mould filling through frictional forces. This reduces mould erosion, improves the casting surface, and minimises subsequent re-oxidation. In addition, non-metallic inclusion capture, increases metal cleanliness and improves the mechanical properties of cast metal. In particular fatigue strength, notch toughness and elongation properties benefit. Through these benefits foam filtration is now globally recognized as an efficient tool to improve castings quality and reduce supply time and production costs.
