Tenova 60t Ladle Furnace
This Tenova 60t Ladle Furnace is a 12 MVA secondary metallurgy unit
designed for efficient alloy dosing and precise molten steel refining.
Equipped with an advanced Tagliaferri digital electrode regulation
system and reliable hydraulic lifting mechanisms, the station is fully
integrated with a robust, water-cooled fume extraction network to
ensure safe, optimized, and environmentally compliant processing.
