The furnace has been designed to charge the stainless steel product (grade series 200, 300 and 400) as well as the carbon and low carbon steel, austenitic and ferrite families, in order to comply with JUSL’s various production needs. The furnace is claimed to achieve optimum thermal quality of products, with maximum efficiency, high performance in all running conditions and ease of maintenance. It can be fired with several gases, allowing the furnace to be ready for future feeding. The installed combustion system is designed to optimise performance (flame characteristics, efficiency and pollutant emissions) in the function of the fuel and burner location (frontal, lateral or radiant application). The multi-level automation control system optimises heating practices, regulating fuel consumption and scale production.
