Tundish Gunning Spraying Machine
Tundish Gunning Spraying Machine is typically used in the steel industry, specifically for the application of refractory materials to the tundish, which is a vessel used in continuous casting to hold and transport molten metal. This machine helps improve efficiency, reduce the need for manual labor, and ensure consistent and even coating of the tundish for better performance and durability.
The GTS-40E/S Tundish Gunning Spraying Machine is an advanced and efficient solution for the application of refractory-slurry mixtures to repair tundishes in steel mills. This system integrates a Ø250 continuous mixer, a vertical screw pump 2L7, and a spraying unit, ensuring a uniform and high-quality mixture of refractory materials. This combination facilitates effective and cost-efficient coating of tundishes, crucial for maintaining uninterrupted operation in modern steel mills with continuous casting units.
The primary purpose of the tundish spraying machine is to coat the inner surfaces of the tundish with refractory materials. This coating acts as a protective barrier against the extreme temperatures and chemical reactions that occur when molten metal enters the tundish. It also prevents reactions between the molten metal and the tundish material, preserving the purity of the metal and avoiding contamination.
Key components of the tundish gunning spraying machine typically include:
- Spraying Gun: The device used to apply the refractory material to the tundish walls. It can be configured for either dry or wet spraying, depending on the type of refractory material used.
- Refractory Material: Either dry powder or wet slurry, which is applied to the tundish to provide thermal insulation and prevent metal leaks or reactions with the tundish material.
- Air Compressor: Delivers the necessary pressure to propel the material through the spraying gun.
- Control System: Manages the amount of material dispensed, ensuring complete and even coverage of the tundish.
Advantages of the tundish gunning spraying machine:
- Ensures a consistent mixture through the steady operation of the continuous mixer.
- Adjustable water-to-material ratio for precise control.
- Continuous delivery of wet material without interruption.
- Extended service life due to adjustable pressure settings and a replaceable screw pump.
- Low wear and fewer components subject to wear, thanks to the use of high-quality materials.
- No dust is generated during spraying, promoting a cleaner working environment.
- Easy and quick cleaning of machine parts exposed to wet refractory materials.
- Provides a smooth, monolithic, joint-free coating of tundish linings.
- Designed for safe and efficient operation under optimal working conditions.
