TCM SES
In contrast to conventional slab casting systems, where the Submerged Entry Nozzle (SEN) limits casting sequences due to thermal and flow constraints, the SES with Tube Changing Mechanism (TCM-SES) is engineered to support extended casting sequences. This system enables smooth and safe changeover of TCM-SES, allowing long, uninterrupted casting operations.
Features
- Designed for use in combination with TCM-TN or sliding gate refractories
- Protects steel flow from oxidation with inert gas purging between TCM-SES and TCM-TN
- Enables quick replacement of TCM-SES without raising the tundish or stopping the casting process
Benefits
- Extended Casting Sequences: Allows quick and safe replacement of TCM-SES without halting operations
- Cleaner Steel: Airtight argon purging prevents re-oxidation and clogging during casting
- High Sequence Capability: Suitable for Aluminium- and Silicon-killed steel, enabling longer uninterrupted casting runs
Application
- Flow Control in Continuous Casting: Transfer of molten steel from tundish to mould.
