Field Gun Factory (FGK), Kanpur is inviting Expression of Interest for commissioning, operation and maintenance of Electro-Slag Re-melting (ESR) Plant available at Field Gun Factory, Kanpur.
10 Ton ESR plant of Annual Production Capacity of 4000 MT (270 working days based on 7 days x 8 hrs., 3 shift with 80% efficiency) to produce solid ESR ingot and subsequently solid ESR ingot to be forged in Hydraulic Press. The plant is already installed at FGK.
Basic Features of the Plant:
- Output ESR ingot length max. 5000mm.
- 02 Stationary Melt Station (01 for Melting & the other for preparation) protective gas ESR plant with single electrode melting for producing ESR ingots.
- Gantry type/column mounted type self-supporting Furnace Head.
- Fully co-axial high current feeding system to obtain low furnace reactance, high power factor, min. Eddy current losses.
- Fully computerized automatic melt control system.
- Automatic Electrode feed control system.
- Data acquisition system for statistical process analysis of re-melting processes.
- Load cell system for weighing entire electrode feeding system to eliminate influence of outside forces.
