M.S. BILLET CASTING FROM SCRAP AND SPONGE IRON USING INDUCTION FURNACE
[EIRI/EDPR/1378] J.C.151INR, 152US$
INTRODUCTION
The Induction furnace based on mini steel plant is a versatile installation where provisions are available for producing a range of steel products by Alloying and casting into various shape. The products of steel plants are in the form of Ingots, Billets, and Sheets etc. These Induction furnace based steel casting units are suitable for small scale industries and medium scale industries and yet have the capability to complete in the internal as well as international market at all counts. In mini steel plant operating under Indian conditions small Billets are Cast for rolling into structural sections, Mild steel billets are manufacturing by different types of furnaces such as Blast Furnace, Electric Arc furnace, Induction Furnace, Basic oxygen furnace etc.
The available sizes of the steel billets are:-
100 x 100 mm2
110 x 110 mm2
130 x 130 mm2
160 x 160 mm2
200 x 200 mm2
Billets are the basic products of steel from which different types of steel products are made such as sheets, Angles, Channels, Rods, etc. Mild steel Billets are the basic raw material for manufacturing various types of re-rolled products.
