A 210-tonne ladle furnace has been hot commissioned at China’s Liuzhou Steel.

It features an electrode rotation system and double duty positions and was supplied by CISDI.

The first heat of refined liquid steel has been successfully tapped from the new LF2, marking an end to the mammoth task carried out at Liuzhou by CISDI in recent years.

The steel company, which is based in Liuzhou City in China’s Guangxi Province, now has three CISDI-made LFs.

CISDI was in charge of all quality and schedule requirements, including mechanical and electric equipment design, manufacturing, supply and technical assistance services.
