Forsome people who are often engaged in steel smelting and other work, they mustbe very familiar with silicon calcium cored wire, right? It is a very importantmaterial that plays a very important role in the smelting process, and it worksvery well. So how much do you know about it? What kind of product is it? Let's find out together.

 

Application:

1.The main material of silicon-calcium cored wire is silicon-calcium alloy, whichis a powdery substance composed of silicon and calcium elements. It is awire-shaped material, which is made by wrapping the strip with cored wireprocessing equipment.

2.The material can adjust easily oxidized elements and trace elements to acertain extent, so that the overall alloy efficiency can be further improved.

3.The silicon-calcium cored wire retains the deoxidation properties in thesilicon-calcium alloy, and increases the time and effect of the calcium elementreaction to a large extent, so it plays a very important role in thesteelmaking process.

4.The material has a very good effect on removing impurities in molten steel, andcan improve the quality of molten steel, so that it can be further purified.


Thewire feeding technology can effectively put the silicon calcium wire into theideal position of the molten steel, change the shape of the inclusions, andimprove the castability and mechanical properties of the molten steel. Calciumsilicon wire reacts more violently with molten steel than silicon calcium wire,so attention should be paid to calcium processing operations, such as feedingdepth and feeding speed. The natural evaporation of the solid core pure calciumwire must be fed deeply. One method is to increase the thickness of the ironsheet to prevent its premature melting and affect the release depth of calcium.The feeding speed and feeding rhythm are the keys to the feeding process of thesilicon calcium wire. Parameters, feeding speed and rhythm that are too fast ortoo slow will affect the melting time and oxidation degree of thecalcium-silicon wire, which will affect the metallurgical effect. Therefore,when applying the calcium-silicon wire, we must always pay attention to themolten steel. In fact, many types of additives are added in steel smelting, andthe effects of different additives are different. Silicon calcium wire is acommonly used additive in steelmaking. The order and method of adding it arealso different from other additives. Only in the correct way of addingferroalloy, can the function of silicon calcium wire be better played. Therefore,the operator must pay close attention to the molten steel situation. Once themolten steel rolls violently, it is necessary to stop for a while beforecontinuing to feed the line to prevent splashing. The quality of the cored wirematerials produced by Henan Hengxing Metallurgy is guaranteed. If you have anyquestions or needs, please call for consultation.
