The quality of the products in bar and wire rods production is strongly affected by the quality results in Continuous Casting both for conventional and special steels.
In different ways Feralpi Groups is working to improve the billets quality in terms of surface, internal and shape defects also with activities included in the R&D projects coupling new equipments, new sensors, studies and data...
The growing automobile market is expected to drive demand for high-strength exterior panels and electrical steel sheets for motors. These products require precise impurity control to maintain formability and magnetic properties. Nitrogen is a particularly crucial element in determining the mechanical properties of steel. Although higher nitrogen content improves tensile and yield strengths, it...
For more than two decades, off-gas analysis technology has been used worldwide, initially as an engineering tool for the design and tuning of fume systems and later as a key tool for EAF chemical energy optimization. In later years, the off-gas analysis has been used for full EAF dynamic control that addresses scrap variability that does not allow for simple EAF profiling operations. Today,...
