The Ladle Metallurgical Station

Once the steel is melted and tapped from the EAF, it is transferred to the Ladle Metallurgy Station or LMS where the steel chemistry and temperature are finalized to applicable standards. Alloy additions are added while the steel chemistry and temperature is homogenized through the use of an electromagnetic stirring coil. The 20 MVA transformer feeds power to the 14" electrodes to ensure every heat is sent to the continuous caster with an exact temperature. |
