We have vast experience and expertise in designing and manufacturing the Mould Flux used in Continuous Casting of Steel for Bloom, Billets, Slab, Round and Thin Slab.
Our experts work very closely with customers to understand their needs and requirements and meet their expectations by offering the best solutions and products along with unparalleled after-sales service. Metallium has the ability to manufacture mould flux in powder as well as granular forms.
Our Mould Flux is exclusively designed and manufactured after in-depth study of our customers’ plant operational parameters, so that they can significantly improve the quality of steel and also yield higher productivity.
Our Mould Flux is designed in such a way as to have a uniform melting temperature range, most desired viscosity, slag thickness and crystallization tendency, optimum melting rate and suitable break and solidification temperatures.
These parameters vary according to casting parameters and grades of cast steel and need to be adjusted suitably so that the following benefits are achieved during continuous casting.
Our product provides you the benefits of using CASTING POWDER at Continuous Casting Machines above 100 section sizes. Casting Powder forms a very strong lubricating layer between solidifying metal and mould, guaranteeing prevention of both metal and mould surface.
Mould Flux (Casting Powder)
✓ Reduced breakouts by providing enough lubrication between mould and steel.
✓ Better surface finish.
✓ Cleaner and better quality steel by increasing inclusion absorption properties of the slag.
✓ Facilitating higher casting speed to increase productivity and yield.
✓ Better thermal insulation by preventing the temperature drop in liquid steel.
✓ Reduced longitudinal cracks by providing uniform heat transfer between steel and mould.
✓ Casting Powder provides easy and fast solidification of metal by providing high rate heat removal from metal.
✓ Casting Powder increases the quality of metal surface.
✓ Casting Powder is cheaper than rapeseed/casting oil.
