As a result significant production cost savings and t in
product quality improvement is achieved.
The PTC process has been tested commercially by several casters,
for high grade steel ingots.
Using the PTC process to stir the molten metal during the
solidification eliminates shrinkage, porosity and reduces
segregation, thus increases the yield from 80% to 90%.
The fine microstructure that has been achieved by the stirring
effect of the molten metal improves dramatically the mechanical
properties. PTC process significantly increases the amount of high
quality metal in the ingot top part.
The PTC process can be applied on any type of ferrous.
The PTC is add on technology and can be integrated on any casting
line.
