What's Applications of Vacuum Degassing (VD) Furnace?cid=6


Vacuum degassing (VD) furnace is a vacuum refining equipment used in the field of high-end steel manufacturing. It works in a highly vacuum environment to effectively remove hydrogen and nitrogen from the molten steel, thereby achieving the effect of degassing and deoxidation.

This VD furnace seals the ladle through a sealing cover to ensure that the vacuum environment is not destroyed. However, traditional VD vacuum degassing furnaces usually require manual operation, and there are problems such as low safety and improper waste gas treatment, which may cause environmental pollution.


Application of Vacuum Degassing (VD) Furnace


Let's learn about the applications of vacuum degassing furnace in steel manufacturing.


The application of VD vacuum degassing furnaces in the steel manufacturing industry mainly includes the following:

1. Production of high-quality alloy steel:

The VD furnace can remove dissolved gases (such as hydrogen and nitrogen) in molten steel, thereby improving the quality of alloy steel, enhancing its oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance, and is suitable for manufacturing high-performance alloy steel products.


2. Refining of stainless steel:

In stainless steel production, vacuum degassing furnaces are used to reduce the oxygen content of molten steel, prevent stainless steel from defects in subsequent processing, and improve its passivation performance and corrosion resistance.


3. Refining molten iron:

Vacuum treatment can effectively remove inclusions and harmful elements in molten iron, improve the performance of casting and forging products, especially in the aerospace and automotive industries.


4. Processing of recycled scrap steel:

When using scrap steel as raw material, the VD vacuum degassing furnace can degas the scrap steel, improve the quality of recycled steel, and reduce impurities in production.


5. Manufacturing of high-end products:

VD furnaces are often used to manufacture special steels with extremely high requirements, such as tool steel, die steel, and high wear-resistant steel, because these materials have strict requirements on gas content and impurity content.


In general, the application of vacuum degassing (VD) furnace in the field of steel manufacturing can improve the overall performance of steel and meet the needs of modern industry for high-quality materials.
