Abstract

The efficiency of electroslag remelting (ESR) and the quality of the remelted steel depend to a large extent on the methods used to obtain the consumable electrodes [1–3]. The MRA has constructed a semicontinuous casting machine to produce consumable electrodes that are either circular in cross section, with a diameter of up to 1 m; square, with dimensions of up to 800 mm a side; or rectangular, with a maximum weight of 45 tons, and a final product yield as high as 96% (Fig. 25.1).
