Continuous Casting & Launders
Refractory lining and maintenance of continuous casting plants and distribution launders for continuous steel production.
Refractory construction for Continuous Casting & Launders
Continuous casting plants and distribution launders are central elements of modern steel production. Here the refractory lining has to meet the highest demands on chemical resistance, temperature stability and precision. SBS Refractory Service is your specialist for the lining and maintenance of tundishes and distribution launders.
In continuous casting every detail counts: a defective outlet nozzle can jeopardise an entire casting sequence. Our teams work with the precision that these safety-critical applications demand — from the wear lining through to the functional component.
Typical challenges
Erosion from liquid steel flowing at high velocity
Chemical attack on the wear lining by steel slag
High precision requirements for functional components such as outlet nozzles
Short cycle times in the tundish turnaround call for efficient work sequences
