SLAG SKIMMING MACHINES

SLAGGING MACHINES

These machines are intended for works mechanization of slag skimming from ladle cars with hot metal prior to cast iron pouring into the mixer or oxygen converter and they are installed in the mixer departments.
During the process of slag skimming the detrimental impurities are removed from the cast iron together with slag.
This equipment enables to improve the quality and chemical composition of cast iron poured into the mixer and then - to the oxygen converter.

Advantages:

Compactability of mechanisms;
Main mechanisms of the machine are fitted with the hydraulic drive which effects tilting, lifting and turning of the carriage as well as moving the boom with a scraper;
Machine control is effected from the operator's cabin equipped with the control panel, heat radiation protection and air-conditioner;
High efficiency of slag skimming.
