STEELMAKING EQIPMENT
Electric arc furnaces (EAFs) designed by NKMZ realize the latest high technologies of melting high quality steel of any grade. The basis of the technology and EAF design is formed by the own advanced scientific-technical, technological and design approaches.
Technical level of EAFs is continuously raised with a wide involvement of scientific research and design institutes closely cooperating with us in this field.
The main distinguishing features of EAF are as follows:
high quality of steel to be melted;
high capacity;
high reliability;
high efficiency.
The main objectives being attained are as follows:
melting a wide grade range of steel;
full technological cycle of melting, including the following:
burden preparation;
preparation of alloying and slag-forming materials;
steel melting in furnace;
heat tapping and weighing in ladle;
process gases recovery;
operation using any grade of burden (scrap, hot briquetted iron, iron-rich pellets, pig and liquid iron).
