M.S. INGOTS
BY INDUCTION MELTING FURNACE 120 MT/DAYS
[CODE NO.1902] J.C. 777
Castings of suitable shape and size intended for subsequent hot working are termed as Ingots.
Ingot iron has very low carbon in steel. This is generally made in the open hearth in which all the other elements are removed to the maximum extent possible. Some of the commercial products falling under this group have less than 0.1% of all non-iron elements put together.
Ingots are cast in ingot moulds which are the containers usually made of cast iron into which molten steel is poured & allowed to solidify.
Mild steel ingots are carbon steels only containing, usually, 0.15 to 0.25% of carbon. These may be fully deoxidized to reduce the oxygen content of the steel to a minimum in order that no reaction takes places between carbon & oxygen during solidification. Such steels are called "Killed Steel".
Most of the bars and structural’s are manufactured in standard sections/sizes. But, ingots/Billets/Bloomy etc. require mutual negotiations between the producer & the buyer for factors & rangs. Generally M.S. ingots are produced in square cross sections of sizes 50 mm to 125 mm in 1979. There were 145 licensed Electric Arc Furnace units with a total licensed capacity of 3.32 million ingot tons running at 70% capacity utilization. These units collectively form the group of mini steel Plants. This concept takes advantage of local availability of major inputs like scrap & power and proximity of the mini steel industry in India has been phenominal after 1970.
