spillaggio device for electric arc furnace, ladle furnace, tundish and relevant process of spillaggio

摘要

Tapping method for molten metal from containers (13) including at the lower part a tapping channel (14) associated at the end part with a discharge hole (15) substantially vertical or sub-vertical, the discharge hole (15) being associated at the lower part with a sliding interception device (19), wherein the tapping channel (14) comprises, associated with the walls, an electromagnetic device (17) with spirals (18) and a system for cooling the walls, wherein, during the end-of-tapping step of the liquid metal the sliding interception device (19) is activated by closing the discharge hole (15) and allowing the metal in the tapping channel (14) to solidify so as to form at least a layer which lines both the tapping channel (14) and the discharge hole (15) filling it completely, and that during the start-of-tapping step the sliding interception device (19) is activated by leaving the discharge hole (15) free and the metal which is blocking the discharge hole (15) is melted by means of the electromagnetic device (17) by varying the characteristics of the current flow. Tapping device which achieves the method as described above and comprising means (38) to feed the electromagnetic device (17) with electric current as a function of the steps of melting and tapping, the sliding interception device (19) comprising a first part (23a) with a high resistance to heat shock, corrosion and erosion and a second part (23b), positioned adjacent to the first part (23a), with high heat conductivity.
