Chernye Metally

The No. 11 issue of "Chernye metally" journal is opened by the conventional sections “Iron and steel news of the world” and “News of metallurgical companies”.

The section "Development of metallurgy in Russia and other CIS countries" includes 3 publications. Two of them are devoted to steelmaking.

Ya.L. Kats and M.V. Krasnyanskiy (VNIIMETMASH) have examined drying and heating of carbon-bearing ladle lining using electric heaters and have developed power- and resource-saving technological procedures for this process. G.I. Sultamurat et al. From Karaganda State Technical University has conducted investigations on possibility of converter slag utilization and has displayed wide opportunities and features of its usage, e.g. in road building.

V.A. Kharitonov and I.V. Taranin (Magnitogorsk State Technical University) have devoted their article to efficiency rise of wire production. Two variants of layout of deformation equipment have been proposed in order to decrease the value of extension stresses and their negative effect: “rolling-extrusion” and “rolling-drawing with back pressure” modules.

The theme of rolling and other metal forming processes is continuing in the corresponding thematic publications. In particular, E.A. Goli-Oglu et al. from NLMK Dansteel has discussed the problems of production optimization of heavy plates at Fredrikswerk, Denmark. The previous publication on this theme can be found in “Chernye metally” No. 2-2015.

Other publications in this section elucidated development of portable profile measurement sensor (A. Niel, Ch. Trapmann), analysis of drive operation at the reversing rolling mill in Bahrain, (J. Niermann), possibilities of automatic control and certification of coiled steel sheet (U. Lettau et al.), as well as operation experience of the largest global radial forging machine of Carpenter Technology works in Alabama, USA (A. Holl et. al.).

The final section “Economica and Finances” presents, among other materials, publications about the state of Russian and Ukrainian steel markets, as well as on the XII National Congress of Foundrymen.
