Focus Area

• Ingot and Continuous Casting Optimization

Short Description

In this project, qoncept conducted a focused technical evaluation of ingot casting operations at a steel plant in India. The aim was to identify root causes of recurring inclusion defects and define improvement measures. On-site observations and discussions revealed reoxidation tendencies, inadequate argon shielding, and challenges in mold powder application as key factors. Based on these findings, qoncept proposed targeted recommendations related to casting parameters, stopper and nozzle design, ardon shielding strategies, and measurement integration to enhance product quality and process stability.
