In continuous casting operations, the ladle shroud is a critical refractory component used to protect molten steel from atmospheric reoxidation as it flows from the ladle to the tundish. However,...
The continuous casting process is a marvel of industrial efficiency, transforming molten steel into various shapes at an impressive rate. But behind the scenes, a crucial yet often unheralded pla...
The Submerged Entry Nozzle (used for the nozzle between the tundish and the mold), the long nozzle (used for the nozzle between the ladle and the tundish) and the sliding nozzle are called the “t...
Slide Gate Plate is a kind of slide gate refractory that is designed to control the flow of molten steel during steel making. This performance of this refractory is dependent upon the ability to ...
The slide-gate plates in a cassette assembly control the steel flow through the tundish nozzle, and may experience through-thickness cracks, caused by thermal expansion and/or mechanical constraint...
