  • the containers 7 and 8 are not yet loaded. After the fusion mixture in the container 9 has been heated up to a preset temperature, the heating is stopped, the cover 19 with the burner 20 is lifted, and the lined container 9 is transferred to position I by turning the platform 3 around 120°. In so doing the containers 7 and 8 also move and take positions II and III.
  • the container 9 is covered with the portal crane 10 hanged up on chains, the dome 14 and electrodes 12 , the SMF power supply is switched on and the preheated fusion mixture is melting down ( FIG. 3 ). In so doing the container 7 in position II is not yet filled.
  • the container 8 is moved to position III, loaded with a portion of the fusion mixture, the cover 19 is lowered and the gas burner 20 is switched on to heat the new portion of the fusion mixture in the container 8 ( FIG. 3 ).

  • the power supply is connected to the SMF
  • the SPP to the burner and the metal in a SMF is melted in position I
  • the processing of the molten metal in the SPP is effected in position II
  • the fusion mixture preheating is made in position III.

  • the slag removal is made by draining the metal processed in position II through the apertures 24 into the slag cup installed on the bottom platform 1 .
  • the slag cup is driven away by a special tractor or in another way.
  • the time of each cycle is calculated so that simultaneously with melting the fusion mixture in position I, the fusion mixture in position III would be already preheated to a required temperature, and the metal arrived at the SPP for processing would be already processed in position II. In this case all containers will be synchronously turned around for respective 120°. In so doing the time of pouring the metal, loading the fusion mixture and its preheating in position III strictly corresponds to the time of fusion and metal processing in positions I and II.
  • the control the process of turning the platform 3 and lowering and rising the domes and covers is performed by a matching device associated with the system of automatic control of the preheating, melting and processing processes (not shown in the drawing).

  • making the working platform 3 with a possibility of rotation provides transfer of the melting containers 7 , 8 , 9 under a cyclic schedule from one position to another through a certain time period during which a definite technological process is carried out in each container.
  • the cycle time should correspond to the SMF operating time under load, the time of pouring of the molten steel from the container.
  • the fusion mixture is preheating in one of the three containers.
  • the fusion mixture is additionally heated, in position I the container performs the SMF function, in the third position II the container performs the SPP function.
  • the volume of the melting containers is designed for loading a single charge and conducting the process without additional charging. The control is performed from a single control panel.
  • this metallurgical complex Due to a compact design and availability of the rotating platform with melting containers, as well as due to a discharge of the whole melt into the metal receiver of the melting machine, this metallurgical complex has no need in steel-teeming ladles and bridge cranes.
