Responsible for heating and thus melting the metal load, followed by liquid metal treatment and removal of undesirable elements, such as phosphorus.
ELECTRIC ARC FURNACE
AR THERMOCAST offers a complete range of melting units -high-impedance Electric Arc Furnaces with the capacity for producing heat sizes from 3 Ton to 200. The raw material may be up to 100% scrap or various mixes of hot metal, pig iron, DRI (hot and/or cold), and HBI, utilizing electrical and chemical energy, according to unit costs and power grid characteristics.
The Electric Arc Furnace operation can be made fully automatic by applying a series of technological packages to optimize the process, to be selected on a case-by-case basis depending on the performance figures to be achieved.
