Electromagnetic products Energy efficiency solutions for metals industry Metallurgy Products ABB electromagnetic products, EMS, boost productivity and quality while lowering energy consumption in continuous casting, melting and refining of mainly steel and aluminum. Long-term commitment in metals The first electromagnetic stirrer, EMS, from ABB was installed in the 1940s for use in an electric arc furnace in Sweden. Since then our knowledge and application of EMS have grown into something of which we are truly proud. Today our know- how of metallurgy products is extensive and gives us the opportunity to work with some of the world’s biggest metal producers. Market leader with complete program We have more than 1,700 stirrers and brakes installed world- wide and are continually improving and widening our perspective of stirring molten metals. Below you can see some of the areas in which we are involved. Stirrer installation Furnace/Strands installments Ladle furnace stirrers 140+ Thin slab EMBR 30+ Conventional slab EM mold 70+ Slab strand stirrers 50+ Mold stirrers (billet/blooms) 700+ Strand stirrers (billet/blooms) 80+ Final stirrers (billet/blooms) 140+ Al furnace stirrers 170+ Arc furnace stirrers 140+ Innovative and unique products We can manufacture stirrers for new furnaces and continuous casters as well as fit stirrers to existing furnaces and cast- ers. We can customize our stirrers to fit your needs. ABB’s energy-efficiency solutions in metallurgical processing include: – EMS for electric arc furnaces – EMS for ladle furnaces – EMS and EM brakes for continuous casters – EM stabilizer for coating lines Long life and minimum maintenance Our stirrers are built to last. Some of our stirrers have been in operation over 30 years. Designed and placed without any direct contact with molten metals, they are easy to operate and program. Manual control of the stirrers can also be applied when needed. Global network with local services ABB has a global network and local presence for metallurgy product services in more than 50 countries. Emergency spare parts service is available 24/7. Unique know-how in coil design We have dvanced 3D computer simulations of all metals and inclusion flow patterns with electromagnetic fields in customer process as well as optimized design for maximum performance and minimum power consumption.
