Working Principle & Characteristics of Double-station Refining Furnace
The double-station refining furnace is a high-efficiency refining equipment used in the metallurgical industry. It is mainly used for secondary refining of molten steel (such as desulfurization, deoxidation, alloying, temperature adjustment, etc.). It realizes continuous production and improves efficiency through alternating operations of two stations. Working Principle of Double-station Refining Furnace 1. Double-station alternating operation Two stations (A/B) operate independently: one station performs molten steel refining (such as heating, stirring, adding alloys), and the other station performs ladle lifting, preparation or maintenance at the same time, achieving seamless connection. Switching stations through rotation or translation mechanisms reduces waiting time and improves production efficiency. 2. Refining process Heating: Usually arc heating or chemical heating (such as aluminothermic reaction) is used to adjust the temperature of molten steel. Stirring: The composition is...
