Speciality

Post weld heat treatment

In the construction of Arcelor Mittal steel ladle, the complete ladle requires heat treatment. 4 units have been manufactured.

Due to their weight, which is around 60 tons each, it is essential to build a portable furnace at the place of manufacture to carry out the heat treatment in situ.

In this case, a 8 m x 6 m x 6 m furnace was assembled.

The heat treatment was carried out using 6 high-powered burners running on diesel at the Gozón workshops in Avilés.
