Christian Bernhard (Montanuniversitaet Leoben)18/06/2019, 13:30KeynoteThe Arvedi ESP process and a variety of produced materials have been continuously developed since the opening of the Arvedi ESP plant in Cremona in 2009 to meet market demands for more sophisticated steel grades. The development of grades for more advanced applications such as advanced high strength steels and multiphase grades is of interest. Dual phase grades such as DP600 are already...Go to contribution page

Carl Slater (University of Warwick)18/06/2019, 14:00Oral PresentationBelt casting as a technology has been suggested as a potential casting method for steels for decades. However it has been hindered by technological capabilities and investment. The potential draw of > 3GJ/tonne reduction in energy this process has on conventional continuous casting has meant that this technology has always shown great potential. With recent improvements and the active mill in...Go to contribution page

Hongbin Yin (ArcelorMittal Global R&D)18/06/2019, 14:20Oral PresentationTransverse cracking of continuously cast products has been encountered at almost every caster operation. Enormous efforts have been carried out in the past aiming at identifying the cause and reducing the problem, especially on steel grades with peritectic chemistries. So far, however, there is still no cost-effective solution with good trade-off for internal quality and productivity. In this...Go to contribution page

Andrew Smith (Materials Processing INstitute)18/06/2019, 14:40Oral PresentationPrevious studies have shown that it is extremely problematic to add synthetic inclusions successfully into liquid steel for clean steel experiments. Small micro-particles encapsulated in a metallic parcel are difficult to pass through the melt-gas interface and inclusions tend to agglomerate then float up to the liquid surface. In this study, powder metallurgy is used to distribute cerium...Go to contribution page

ARUNAVA SENGUPTA (Warwick Manufacturing Group, University of Warwick, UK)18/06/2019, 15:00Oral PresentationMaintaining competitiveness in steel manufacturing requires improving process efficiency and production volume whilst enhancing product quality and performance. This is particularly challenging for producing value-added advanced steel grades such as advanced high strength steels and electrical steels. These grades due to higher weight percentage of alloying elements cause difficulties in...Go to contribution page

Pavel E. Ramirez Lopez (SWERIM AB)18/06/2019, 15:20Oral PresentationThe ongoing RFCS project SUPPORT-CAST is aimed at finding optimal casting parameters and cooling rates to improve product quality based on high-resolution visualization topography scanning in combination with advanced numerical modelling. Surface scanning is performed by a blue laser sensor adapted to withstand temperatures up to 1200°C and capable of resolutions up to 30 microns. This enables...Go to contribution page
