Benefits by implementing Skamol VIP-12 HS boards in ladle linings

 

By replacing e.g. 45-55 mm of the high silica or high alumina bricks by a thinner layer of min. 12.7 mm Skamol VIP-12 HS boards the following benefits are obtained: 

 

  • Slimmer and safer lining
  • Improved conservation of energy in the steel batch
  • Lower surface temperature of the shell
  • More steel per charge

 

Due to a higher steel temperature throughout one batch, the casting time per ladle can be reduced.
