Torpedo Ladle Mouth Jam Cleaning Machine

Removal of attachments, solidified iron and slag accretion at ladle mouth During molten iron transportation, molten iron, slag and refractory dust continuously adhere to the mouth of the torpedo ladle, cooling and hardening to form thick accretion. The accretion reduces the flow cross-section for molten iron tapping, resulting in poor tapping, unstable flow, biased stream and splashing. This machine mechanically crushes and removes hardened deposits to restore the original flow passage of the ladle mouth.

Eliminate potential safety hazards during molten iron transportation Uneven accretion on the ladle mouth easily causes slag hanging and molten iron splashing during tapping, which may lead to scalding and fire accidents. Falling massive accretion can also impact steel ladles and cause equipment damage. Timely cleaning greatly improves safety in the steelmaking workshop.

Stabilize production rhythm and shorten downtime Traditional cleaning relies on manual pneumatic breakers, featuring high-temperature, high-risk working conditions and long operation hours. Mechanized cleaning significantly boosts efficiency, reduces online occupation time of torpedo ladles and improves the turnover efficiency of torpedo ladles.

Reduce high-intensity and high-risk manual work It avoids heavy manual chiseling by workers close to the high-temperature ladle mouth area, lowering risks of thermal burns and splashing injuries and complying with safety production specifications of steel plants.

Protect refractory lining of torpedo ladle mouth Rough manual striking tends to crack and spall the refractory materials at the ladle mouth. Controlled crushing by the machine reduces abnormal damage to refractory lining, extends lining service life and cuts refractory replacement costs.
