In the process of steelmaking, pure Calcium Cored Wire plays a vital role in metallurgy. They include inclusion modification, deoxidization and desulfurization. It is a highly efficient method of adding calcium to molten steel and has significant advantages over other methods of supplying calcium, such as using calcium blocks added directly to the ladle.
XLS Metals Pure calcium Cored Wire consists a steel outer coating and a core made of metallic pure calcium. The sheath is encased in the core. A spool of the wire is wound and fed via a metal feeder to the molten steel. The calcium core melts into the molten metal and reacts chemically with other components to create various compounds. It improves the steel's quality, and lowers the cost of production.
A higher feed speed for the cored wire allows deeper penetration into the layer of slag. The slag oxidation is reduced and the calcium absorption in the steel is increased. This also increases the purity and reduces loss of calcium in the slag. It is also easier to recover the calcium that is deposited into the slag, because it's not contaminated by the oxygen in the steel.
It can be installed in the existing ladle without the addition of any equipment. Due to the lower melting and boil points, this wire is safer than standard cored ones. The sheath on pure calcium-cored wires prevents contact between molten steel and the operator, reducing the chance of burns.
Hi-Cal sheaths can be thinner than those of traditional CaSi insulated wires. It can be fed easily through existing steel plant feeders, eliminating the requirement for costly lance systems. This material can also be added or substituted for CaSi to steels of all grades.
Pure Calcium Cored Wire contains a core made of smelted steel alloy, with fewer inclusions. This wire is ideal for many applications, and it offers excellent performance when adding calcium to steel molten. The latest induction furnaces can be used with this product. It can be supplied in multiple diameters ranging from 9mm to 11.5 mm. You can also choose from a number of different packaging options. These include horizontal and vertical coils on pallets made out of wood or metal, or PVC-wrapped stretch foil. It can be supplied in a steel cage for convenient storage. A comprehensive team of service technicians and engineers is also available to answer all questions. This guarantees that customer expectations will be met. XLS Metals's high-quality services and products have won the company an international reputation. It has several production-related patents, as well as state-of-the art grinding, wire drawing and packaging machines. We can therefore rely on steel, casting and other industries to utilise our products.
