Cored wire treatments for cast iron into ladle
In the 1980s, the steel foundry industry faced the imperative of enhancing control and automation, while incorporating additives and inoculants to elevate the quality of metallurgical treatment in the Ladle. This period marked a significant turning point for ductile iron and compacted graphite iron foundries, as they recognized the cored wire system as a straightforward, efficient, and expeditious method for magnesium treatments. Notably, this method led to a substantial reduction in material wastage.
The advantages of employing the cored wire system were swiftly grasped by foundries, leading to the development of diverse applications for metallurgical treating ductile irons and compacted graphite irons foundries. Presently, there exist various applications in foundries dedicated to ductile irons and compacted graphite irons production of foundries. Cored wire finds predominant use in spheroidization and inoculation, with less frequent applications in desulphurization and all modification treatments in the Ladle.
This method stands as a testament to continuous advancements in metallurgical processes, contributing significantly to the enhancement of ductile iron foundry practices.
