Primetals Technologies Lands Order for Converter Relining Machine
06/21/2022 - Brazil’s Companhia Siderúrgica do Pecém (CSP) has ordered a relining machine from Primetals Technologies for its Pecém mill, the equipment supplier reports.
In a statement, Primetals Technologies said the machine consists of a base structure, a winch-suspended working platform, a combined pallet and personal elevator, and a feeding unit. The machine provide access to the converter through its mouth.
“The LD converters at CSP’s plant have a fixed bottom. To accommodate for this design, the new relining machine will be capable of bringing in bricks and stirring plugs for the bottom relining procedure. This patent pending process is realized by an elevator that can be unloaded both on the working platform and below,” the company said.
