Edwards wins GBP 1M orders for steel degassing equipment

Edwards has won orders worth GBP1 million (US$1.59 million) for its new generation steel degassing equipment in India. The dry pumping technology is replacing traditional steam ejector systems in vacuum degassing (VD) processes, enabling users to produce higher quality products with significantly reduced operating and energy costs. Steel degassing modules will be installed at companies including Laxcon Steel and Bhawani Steel to run the VD and vacuum oxygen decarburising (VOD) processes to produce degassed alloy steels and stainless steel used in automotive, electrical and power industries. The oil-free dry pumping system from Edwards consists of HV30000, HV8000 and IDX1300 pumps arranged in three stages, pre-mounted, piped and fully wired on a two-part skid. Each skid is capable of vacuum degassing 23 tonnes of steel and a number of skids can be mounted in parallel and integrated with the steel degassing tank to suit the required ladle size.ΠΑΙΔΙΚΑ ΠΑΠΟΥΤΣΙΑ
