FEATURES OF PARAS BILLET CASTER

There are numerous steel melt shops with smaller capacity induction furnaces that have been casting ingots due to the non-availability of simple and economically viable billet casting technology. Such plants need modular caster which can be installed in a reasonably shorter duration without affecting production and without any major alteration in existing infrastructure. Electrotherm took initiative to develop Modular and Compact Billet Casting Technology to meet the needs of existing ingot making units willing to migrate to billet making and new mini steel plants. It is suitable for casting heat size as small as 5 ton and modules are available for casting section from 80 mm x 80 mm to 150 mm x 150 mm reduced operating cost and casters that are simple and safer to operate.

Features:
  • Higher reliability and optimum cost of operation.
  • Modular design with factory assembled and aligned equipment reduces the civil cost, erection, and commissioning line.
  • Modular design with the possibility of increasing the number of strands in the future by adding multiple modules at the same place for capacity expansion.
  • Operational flexibility and minimum time required for size change.
  • Rigid dummy bar for enhanced productivity and quick re-stranding.
  • Motorized Tundish trolley for a quick change of Tundish.
  • PLC-based secondary spray cooling system ensures optimum cooling for minimum scale formation and direct rolling.
  • Forced mould lubrication ensuring controlled oil flow.
  • User-friendly with low operating and maintenance cost.

QUALITIES OF PARAS BILLET CASTERS

  • Simplicity and Compactness: Paras billet casters offer very simple and compact solution which is capable of producing several tons of commercial grades annually.
  • Highest output: The billet casters provide the best solution for all applications that require the highest output at minimal operating cost.
  • Special grades: These machines are designed for the production of special grades of carbon steel and stainless steel. They are regarded as the leading technology in the market.

MODULAR BILLET CASTER

(Billet/Bloom Continuous Casting)

Paras’ Modular and Compact Billet Casting Technology is designed to meet the requirements of the units making ingots which are considering billet making as well as mini steel plants. The modular billet caster is specifically developed to be appropriate for the casting of small size heat size.

The modular billet caster has modules which can cast sections ranging from 80 mm x 80 mm to 150 mm x 150 mm.

FEATURES OF PARAS MODULAR BILLET CASTER

  • Minimal transition time: The transition time from available ingot-making billet plant is minimal. The productivity of the existing plant is also unaffected.
  • Reduced operating cost: Its operating cost is considerably low.
  • Easy and safe operation: The casters are very easy and safer to operate.
  • Flexible configuration: Its configuration is very flexible and it has possibility of up gradation and expansion by adding modules.
  • Cost effectiveness: Its reduced scale generation means that the customer saves considerably.
  • Casting platform size: For single strand, the required casting size is 6m x 9m.
