Conventional Caster

Electrotherm introduced in the market, direct rolling concept through high-speed caster saving a huge amount of energy used for re-heating of the billets. Conventional casters (6/11) casters are most suitable for hot billet rolling as the temperature at the withdrawal is 1100 °C, the highest in the industry, and there is no bleeding at the cutting point.

Conventional casters provide throughput up to 24 Ton/hour/strand with casting speed at 3.8 M/Min@110Sq. M/Section size and oscillation speed ranging from 40 – 300 CPM. These casters are robust machine structures with civil integration, hence there is no vibration even at high speed, and can run at very high CPM. Casters are made of sand-blasted steel structure with anti-corrosive treatment with high-temperature paint.

Advantages

  • Most economical operation due to high productivity.
  • Low scale loss due to high speeds.
  • The highest percentage of hot billet rolling due to high temperature at withdrawal.
  • Lower Civil Cost.
  • Less metal loss resulting in better yield.
  • Higher shell thickness at mould tube exit to avoid bleeding break-out.
  • Parabolic type Mould Tube design especially for higher casting speed.
  • Mould jacket assembly designed for uniform heat transfer.
  • PLC controlled secondary cooling automation with three cooling zones optimized for higher Shell growth in soft nature.
  • Precise control over a water spray system hence better control over billet temperature and billet quality.
  • Specially designed withdrawal assembly and machine with the closed-loop water-cooled system enabling protection of machine parts.

Testimonials

We convey our sincere thanks and our appreciation to M/ s Electrotherm family for the development, realization, testing, qualification and commissioning of 10 MW power supply system for our Plasma Wind Tunnel facility. We are extremely glad that M/ s Electrotherm has taken up this challenging task, when no such system was existing in the country. We wish, we should have many more such collaborative ventures in future with M/ s Electrotherm and contribute to ISRO's futuristic advanced R&D programmes.
Mr. P.A. Krishnamoorthy, VSSC-ISRO
Hereby we feel glad to have 4000 KW/ 10 Ton DTi Furnace set along with HSMC lX Caster. We have commissioned this equipments in our plant on 21st May 2018 & found performance which was committed by Electrotherm was achieved. Electrotherm's project execution was extraordinary & their process understanding & support was remarkable. Looking to the performance of other equipments of other makes running within our group, we have found performance of Electrotherm make DTi Furnace to be best.
