Rational Parameters of Soft Reduction of Concast Pipe Steel Slabs
At Magnitogorsk Iron & Steel Works some analysis to define the most appropriate position of a soft reduction unit along the strand of CCM No 6 in BOF-Shop have been carried out in order to improve the slab centerline quality. The corrected soft reduction technology has been successfully introduced. Therefore, axial porosity and axial chemical heterogeneity of continuously cast billets have been improved.
