Influence of the Magnesium Treatment in a Georg Fischer Converter

Abstract:

With up-to-date thermal analysis equipment, it is possible to control and regulate the melting and treatment process of ductile iron, more or less at every step of the process. Changes in the composition can be handled by controlling and then regulating each single step. The complete process, starting with the melting in a cupola furnace, followed by the holding process in an induction channel furnace and finally the magnesium treatment in a converter has been analysed. A correlation to control and regulate the eutectic undercooling of the melt has been developed.
