Ladle Transfer Carts For High Temperature Metal Smelting

Ladle transfer cart is a type of transfer equipment used to transport specific high-temperature ladles. Ladle cart is mainly used in metal smelting plants to transport high-temperature containers such as slag and ladles.

Key Design Considerations for Ladle Cart

When designing ladle cart, the first consideration is the temperature of the working environment. The motors and electrical components used in ladle rail cart are different for different temperatures. If the working environment is far away from the high-temperature furnace, ladle rail transfer cart does not need special protection.

Due to the particularity of the objects transported, ladle cart is also designed with operational stability in mind, and a variable frequency motor with a higher insulation level should be used. The variable frequency motor can achieve slow start and stop, ensuring that the high-temperature molten steel carried by the ladle does not splash due to sudden acceleration or reduction of the running speed, causing accidents. When designing the frame of ladle cart, the thermal insulation between the frame and the electrical equipment should also be considered to protect the electrical equipment.

Power Supply Method for Rail Ladle Cart

1. Battery solution has a boiling point because it is a liquid, and the high-temperature working performance of DC electrical appliances is not very ideal, so it is not recommended to use batteries to power ladle carts.
2. Low voltage rail power supply: Because the track is conductive, the transported molten steel and other liquids are easy to splash onto the track, affecting the stability of its power supply. Therefore, if this power supply method is selected, the track must be cleaned frequently.
3. Drag cables and cable drums are recommended, which are also the commonly used power supply methods. They are simple to protect, low cost, and have good high-temperature resistance.

Features of Rail Ladle Cart

1. The U-shaped fixing frame with a concave or convex tabletop ensures that transfer cart on railway is not affected during operation and that the ladle stands vertically without tilting.
2. The entire transfer car is insulated to reduce the impact of high temperatures on electrical components and ensure safe driving.
3. Electric cart body is equipped with a weighing device to measure the load-bearing liquid accurately.
4. Smooth start and stop to reduce the accident rate.
